HoFH, the International Clinical Collaborators Registry
Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH), a rare inherited disorder caused by bi-allelic mutations in the LDL Receptor pathway, is characterized by extremely elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) from birth and premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Our current knowledge about HoFH is disjointed and largely stems from relatively small case …
PPMI Clinical - Establishing a Deeply Phenotyped PD Cohort
The Parkinson Progression Marker Initiative (PPMI) is a longitudinal, observational, multi-center natural history study to assess progression of clinical features, digital outcomes, and imaging, biologic and genetic markers of Parkinson's disease (PD) progression in study participants with manifest PD, prodromal PD, and healthy controls. The overall goal of PPMI is …
TRANSPIRE: Lung Injury in a Longitudinal Cohort of Pediatric HSCT Patients
Hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is an effective but toxic therapy and pulmonary morbidity affects as many as 25% of children receiving transplant. Early pulmonary injury includes diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH), thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) interstitial pneumonitis (IPS) and infection, while later, bronchiolitis obliterans is a complication of chronic GVHD associated …
Risk Factors That Increase the Chance of Developing Primary Graft Dysfunction After Lung Transplantation
Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is a severe lung complication that can occur in the days after lung transplant surgery. This study will analyze blood samples to determine if high levels of certain chemicals may increase the risk of developing PGD after a lung transplant.
African Cancer Genome: GMD
The goal of this study is to develop a comprehensive characterization of genetic and molecular drivers of breast and prostate cancer in individuals of African ancestry. The study is conducted by the African Caribbean Cancer Consortium (AC3) and involves the recruitment of patients from nine international AC3 research sites in …
Collecting Blood Samples From Patients With and Without Cancer to Evaluate Tests for Early Cancer Detection
This study collects blood and tissue samples from patients with cancer and without cancer to evaluate tests for early cancer detection. Collecting and storing samples of blood and tissue from patients with and without cancer to study in the laboratory may help researchers develop tests for the early detection of …

Thoraflex Hybrid and Relay Extension Post-Approval Study
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the Thoraflex Hybrid device alone and in combination with the RelayPro NBS stent-graft in the treatment of aortic disease affecting the aortic arch and descending aorta with or without involvement of the ascending aorta. Patients who undergo treatment with the Thoraflex …
Studying Health Outcomes After Treatment in Patients With Retinoblastoma
This trial studies health outcomes after treatment in patients with retinoblastoma. Gathering health information over time from patients and family members through vision assessments, samples of tissue and saliva, and questionnaires may help doctors learn more about what causes retinoblastoma, identify long-term health outcomes for patients with retinoblastoma, and find …
