Extracellular Vesicles and Particles (EVP) as Biomarkers of Recurrence in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
The purpose of this study is to find out if fluid rinsed from peoples' airways (bronchial washing samples) during routine surgery to remove (resect) their non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumors contains enough vesicles to do testing that may help the researchers learn more about their NSCLC.
Study to Investigate Genetic Causes of Severe Early Childhood Onset Obesity.
This study aims to investigate genetic causes of early childhood obesity. The investigators will enroll children and young adults with severe early onset obesity (BMI > 99th percentile) diagnosed prior to 6 years of age. The investigators will ask questions about the health and eating behavior of the participants, and …
Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease (CMT) Biological Sample Collection for iPSC Generation and Biobanking
The New York Stem Cell Foundation (NYSCF) Research Institute is performing this research to accelerate Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease research and drug development by using cells from the body (such as skin or blood cells) to make stem cells and other types of cells, conduct research on the samples, perform genetic testing, …
Rare CFTR Mutation Cell Collection Protocol (RARE)
Over 1,900 mutations in the gene for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein are implicated in causing Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Potential therapies that directly target defective CFTR are being evaluated in important clinical trials, but most target the most common CFTR mutation F508del. Many patients with rare CF …
Natural History Study - Mitochondrial Disease
Carriers of the m.3242A>G mutation often have clinical symptoms which can include migraines, seizures, strokes, hearing loss, balance issues, gastrointestinal issues, and many other symptoms. The investigators would like to learn more about these disorders and have designed a "Natural History Study" to monitor these conditions over time so that …
Radiofrequency Ablation for BIII Thyroid Nodules
The purpose of this observational chart review study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) for treatment of indeterminate thyroid nodules before and after RFA procedure. This is a data collection study in which the investigators ask patients to give access to information generated before and …
The MIRROR Registry: Minimally Invasive IntRaceRebral HemORrhage Evacuation
This registry will study the use of the Aurora® Surgiscope to provide surgical access and visualization in minimally invasive removal of hematoma in the brain. Many methods of hematoma removal are available and will be based on surgeon preference. The impact of patient selection and time to surgery from last …
Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy as an Imaging Biomarker for the Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cystic Lesions
The study schema is shown in Figure 4. (A) All patients referred to one of the participating academic centers for EUS evaluation of the PCL will be enrolled in the protocol if they satisfy inclusion criteria. Patient consent will be obtained during the clinic visit or prior to their EUS. …
Chronic Pain in Rheumatoid Arthritis
The objective is to identify modifiable clinical factors and neurobiological pathways that lead to the development of chronic pain in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis. Participants will undergo quantitative sensory testing, a type of testing that involves assessing response to well-defined, quantifiable painful stimuli, at 0, 3, and 12 months. …
The Genetics and Functional Basis of Inherited Platelet, White Blood Cell, Red Blood Cell, and Blood Clotting Disorders.
Blood contains red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, as well as a fluid portion termed plasma. We primarily study blood platelets, but sometimes we also analyze the blood of patients with red blood cell disorders (such as sickle cell disease), white blood cell disorders, and disorders of the …
