Genomic Risk in Retroperitoneal Sarcoma
The protocol intends to explore the biology which may underlie recurrences of retroperitoneal liposarcoma. Surgery remains the only curative intent intervention for this disease. Often, tumors recur in locations within the retroperitoneum remote from the original primary tumor. This study hypothesizes that normal appearing retroperitoneal fat actually harbors underlying genetic …
A Longitudinal Multi-Omic Biomarker Profiling Study of Patients With Head & Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC)
The study is a prospective, longitudinal, non-interventional, multicenter study of participants with HNSCC who will have tissue and blood based molecular biomarker profiling during their standard of care treatment.
A Study of Participants With Cerebral Adrenoleukodystrophy (CALD) Treated With Elivaldogene Autotemcel
The main aim of this study is to assess and describe the safety outcomes, including newly diagnosed malignancies, of patients with CALD treated with eli-cel in the post-marketing setting (tradename Skysona) and to describe major functional disability (MFD)-free survival over time in participants with more advanced early active CALD. All …
Duration of Immobilization After Reverse Total Arthroplasty for Proximal Humerus Fractures
The purpose of this study is to evaluate compare postoperative range of motion in patients who are given a sling for comfort only and allowed to start early active range of motion compared to patients who are placed in a sling for 4 weeks with passive range of motion only. …
Effect of CPAP on Blood Pressure in Excessively Sleepy Obstructive Sleep Apnea Subtype
The primary objective of this study is to determine the longer-term (6 months) effect of CPAP therapy on change in 24-hour mean blood pressure (24hMBP) in OSA subjects with the excessively sleepy symptom subtype.
Can Medical Cannabis Affect Opioid Use?
The goal of this observational study is to learn how medical cannabis (MC) affects pain and the use of opioid pain medications. Participants who have chronic pain and use prescribed opioid pain medication will opt-in to using MC or not for the 3-month study. Participants who are certified in Pennsylvania …
UAB HRFD Core Center: Core A: The Hepato/Renal Fibrocystic Diseases Translational Resource
In 2005, The University of Alabama at Birmingham established a NIDDK-funded, interdisciplinary center of excellence in PKD-related research, with specific emphasis on recessive PKD. In the previous Core Center award period, we developed a Core Resource to capture clinical and mutational data for ARPKD patients ("Core A: ARPKD Clinical and …
Exploration of Personalized Biomarkers During Neoadjuvant Radiation Therapy for Spinal and Sacral Chordoma
In this study the investigators will study the effects of neoadjuvant radiation therapy (RT), in the form of either proton therapy or stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), on the Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), radiographic changes and radiomics, and the validity of these findings will be compared using the current gold …
Lung Injury is One of the Primary Causes of Morbidity and Mortality in Critically Ill Patients. These Patients Will be Monitored for: 1) Immune Cell Activation 2) Blood-based Biomarkers. In Vitro Models Derived From These Samples Will be Treated With Novel Agent PIP-2 to Evaluate Its Efficacy.
Acute Lung Injury (ALI) and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a condition where high levels of inflammation damage the lung. This is a highly morbid condition with no specific pharmacologic therapies. The investigators posit that ARDS is caused due to an exaggerated activation of immune cells and that blockade …
Remote Sputum Collection in Cystic Fibrosis
Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor or Trikafta improves lung health in people with cystic fibrosis (CF), including decreased cough and mucous production. Diagnosing lung infections has become more challenging due to the decrease in sputum and rise of telehealth services. While the option of collecting sputum samples at home and sending them by mail …
