Comprehensive Omics Analysis of Pediatric Solid Tumors and Establishment of a Repository for Related Biological Studies
Background Laboratory investigators who are studying common childhood cancers are interested in developing a tissue repository to collect and store blood, serum, tissue, urine, or tumors of children who have cancer or adults who have common childhood cancers. To develop this repository, additional samples will be collected from children and …
Evaluation of Children With Endocrine and Metabolic-Related Conditions
Background Endocrine glands give off hormones. Researchers want to learn more about the disorders that affect these glands in children. These disorders might be caused by changes in genes. Genes contain DNA, which is the blueprint of how a cell works. Researchers want to identify the genes involved in endocrine …
The Natural History of Severe Viral Infections and Characterization of Immune Defects in Patients Without Known Immunocompromise
Background Infections caused by viruses are common causes of illnesses: the common cold, many ear infections, sore throats, chicken pox, and the flu are caused by different viruses. Usually, these illnesses last only few days or, at most, a few weeks. Some virus infections like influenza are cleared from the …
Long-Term Follow-Up of Survivors of Pediatric Cushing Disease
Background The pituitary gland produces hormones. A tumor in this gland can cause it to produce too much of the hormone cortisol. Too much cortisol in the body causes Cushing disease. This disease causes many problems. Some of these problems might persist after the disease is cured. Objective To find …
MRI Study of Musculoskeletal Function
This study will use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound images to study how muscles, tendons, and bones work together to cause motion. The procedure is one of several tools being developed to characterize normal and impaired musculoskeletal function, with the goal of developing improved methods of diagnosis and treatment …
The Selfie Study- Assessing Novel Markers for Cervical Cancer Screening From Self-collected Samples
Cervical cancer is primarily caused by Human Papillomaviruses (HPV). Testing for HPV in cervical samples is now an option for cervical cancer screening. HPV can also be tested from self-collected samples which may help to improve access to screening, since it does not require a doctor visit. However, many women …
Bronchiectasis and NTM Research Registry
The Bronchiectasis Research Registry is a consolidated database of non-cystic fibrosis (non-CF) Bronchiectasis and Nontuberculosis Mycobacteria (NTM) patients from multiple clinical institutions.
Profiling of Radiological Factors in Treatment and Outcomes in Prostate Cancer
Background Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers for men in the U.S. There are some new ways to take pictures of the cancer. There are also new ways to use image-guided biopsy and therapy. These could help manage prostate cancer. Researchers want to study how imaging can …
Screening for LID Clinical Studies Unit Healthy Volunteer Protocols
Background The Laboratory of Infectious Diseases (LID) Clinical Studies Unit (CSU) enrolls healthy volunteers into clinical studies to study infectious diseases. Viruses can be highly infectious and contagious. They cause considerable illness in the United States each year and a good example of this is influenza (the flu). The LID …
Testing Tumor Tissue and Blood to Help Select Personalized Treatments for Patients With Suspected Lung Cancers
This collaborative screening protocol, developed by the Lung Cancer Mutation Consortium (LCMC) and supported by the Thoracic Surgery Oncology Group (TSOG), is designed to determine the feasibility of comprehensive molecular profiling to detect actionable oncogenic drivers in patients with suspected early stage lung cancers scheduled to undergo biopsies to establish …
