NCT02833948
The aortic valve is located between the left ventricle and the aorta. Patients with symptomatic, severe aortic valve stenosis conventionally have it surgically replaced requiring direct access to the heart through the chest. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is now a well-established alternative for treating severe aortic valve stenosis. Both types of intervention improve prognosis and alleviate symptoms. The optimal choice of blood thinning therapy after TAVR is unknown. It has been reported that leaflet thrombosis with reduced leaflet motion can occur and this phenomenon has been suggested to be potentially related with neurological events. In addition, the occurence of this phenomenon can be reduced with anticoagulation blood thinning therapy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if anticoagulation compared to the usual double platelet inhibitor therapy after TAVR can reduce the risk of leaflet thrombosis.

NCT00340548
Background: Over 80% of the hemophiliac population who became infected with HIV prior to 1985 are also co-infected with HCV. Thus, hemophiliacs represent an important population for studies of the natural history of these chronic viral infections. Moreover, the high rate of co-infection makes it an ideal group for assessing the interaction between the viruses and the relationship between viral specific immune responses and clinical progression. Although the hemophiliac poulation is unique, co-infection by these chronic viral pathogens is becoming increasingly common, particularly amongst intravenous drug users, who account for approximately 25% of the HIV-1 epidemic in the United States. Objectives: The aim of this study is to determine if polymorphism in the promoter region of TH1 and Th2 cytokines are associated with (1) intracellular cytokines levels in CD4 + Tcells, (2) Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) viral loads, and (3) clinical progression of HIV1 to AIDS in hemophiliacs. Eligibility: The current proposal will investigate host genetic factors related to HIV-1 and HCV immunopathogenesis by studying children and adolescents enrolled in the Hemophilia Growth and Development Study (HGDS). Design: This study is in collaboration with the principle investigators of the Hemophilia Growth and Development Study (HGDS) as part of a grant "Pathogenesis of HIV and HCV in Hemophilia: HGDS-3" with funding support by NIH/NICHD for the period 9/25/01 through 8/31/2005. This multicenter, United States study represents a well-characterized, prospectively followed cohort of HCV-infected hemophiliacs, of whom 207 are HIV-1 co-infected. Enrollment of the hemophiliac cohort was completed between 3/89 and 6/90. The final observation of the cohort (follow-up 16) was concluded during 7/98. No new samples or clinical data will be collected on this population. The LGD plays two roles in this project: (1) an administrative role overseeing the withdrawal, handling, and transport of samples from the HGDS/LGD and central repositories at the NCI-Frederick, and (2) a scientific role continuing investigations to determine the role of host genetic factors in Th1 and Th2 immune response and regulation of HCV and HIV viral replication..
NCT01511653
The investigators are undertaking a multi-center, 13000 subject validation study of several biomarkers for early detection of colon cancer. There are stool based biomarkers and blood based biomarkers being validated in this study. The biomarkers will be compared with colonoscopy and with FIT (fecal immunohistochemistry) tests which are the current standards for colon cancer screening. This is an NCI-early Detection Research Network funded project. The population targeted for this study are those persons undergoing colonoscopy for screening. Prior to colonoscopy or even prepping for colonoscopy, subjects will provide blood and stool samples as well as specific data regarding their GI and general medical history and concomitant medications. If subjects are interested in participating, arrangements will be made to see them. The informed consent process will take place, blood will be obtained, data will be obtained, and the stool kit described and given to the subject to take home. Stool samples will be sent back to the University of Michigan using prepaid mailing labels.
NCT02574390
Creation of a large repository of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC), bio-fluid samples (blood and spinal fluid (optional)), and cell lines for ALS gene identification. This will be combined carefully with collected measures of the pattern of the symptoms people with ALS have and how these change over time. People with other motor neuron diseases and healthy controls will be included as comparisons
NCT03233841
The primary objective of this study is to establish the natural history of Farber disease (acid ceramidase deficiency) through the collection and analysis of retrospective and prospective data on patients diagnosed with Farber disease. All patients diagnosed with Farber disease are eligible, including both those who have and have not undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Additionally, data and records from deceased patients will provide valuable retrospective data for this study. The secondary objective of the study is to establish a set of clinical data, laboratory data (biomarkers), and functional data potentially useful for: * Assessing the efficacy of HSCT and the efficacy of potential future therapies (for example with RVT-801, recombinant human acid ceramidase) in Farber disease * Characterizing changes in symptoms of patients over time * Characterizing distinct groups (phenotypes) within the patient population * Documenting the disease histories of individual patients to serve as intra-subject control data for those who may enroll in any future clinical studies with therapies for Farber disease The exploratory objectives of the study are: * To explore the relationship between patient disease activity or phenotype and specific ceramide levels or specific immunologic markers (cytokines/chemokines) in blood * To evaluate a standardized tool, the Farber Disease Natural History Instrument (FDNI), to be used for the collection of patient history information, data from clinical, laboratory, genetic, and functional studies, and data from review of medical records
NCT02991911
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability, describe the dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or maximum administered dose (MAD \[in the absence of establishing the MTD\]) for single agent MEDI3726 in subjects with mCRPC who have received prior treatment with abiraterone or enzalutamide, with or without a prior taxane-based chemotherapy in the mCRPC setting.
NCT03168828

NCT01183689
The Study of Novel Approaches for Prevention (SNAP) is randomized trial designed to test whether behavioral interventions based on self-regulation can prevent weight gain in young adults (18-35 years; body mass index (BMI) 21-30 kg/m2). Two different self-regulation interventions for weight gain prevention will be compared in this trial; one intervention will focus on making small, consistent, changes in eating and exercise behavior to prevent weight gain or reverse weight gain if it occurs, whereas the other will emphasize larger changes in eating and exercise that occur periodically, with a goal of producing weight loss and thereby providing a buffer against anticipated weight gains. The primary aim of the trial is to test whether the magnitude of weight gain from baseline across an average three-year follow-up differs across the three groups, with the hypotheses that weight gain will be greater in the Control group than in either intervention and greater in the Small Changes than Large Changes group. SNAP-E (Extension) will determine whether the effects of the intervention can be maintained over an additional 3 years (i.e. through a total of 6 years).
NCT04230889

NCT03505125
The 165-901 study is designed to identify the appropriate tools for use in future interventional studies on the neurocognitive effects of pegvaliase on adults with PKU.
NCT00014235
This clinical trial studies fludarabine phosphate and total-body radiation followed by donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant and immunosuppression in treating patients with hematologic malignancies. Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It may also stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving total-body irradiation together with fludarabine phosphate, cyclosporine, and mycophenolate mofetil before transplant may stop this from happening.
