Arkansas Paid Clinical Trials

The purpose of the Connect® Myeloid disease registry is to provide unique insights into treatment decisions and treatment patterns as they relate to clinical outcomes of patients with myeloid diseases in routine clinical practice. This disease registry will also evaluate molecular and cellular markers that may provide further prognostic classification which may or may not be predictive of therapy and clinical outcomes.

A Phase II study of anitocabtagene-autoleucel (formerly CART-ddBCMA) for patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Anitocabtagene-autoleucel is a BCMA-directed CAR-T cell therapy. Read Less

This clinical trial keeps track of and collects follow-up information from patients who are currently enrolled on or have participated in a Children's Oncology Group study. Developing a way to keep track of patients who have participated in Children's Oncology Group studies may allow doctors learn more about the long-term effects of cancer treatment and help them reduce problems related to treatment and improve patient quality of life.

Background: The VA and DoD estimate that 3.5 million Veterans and Service Members were exposed to open burn pits used for waste disposal during military deployments to countries such as Kuwait, Afghanistan, and Iraq since 1990. Since the lasting adverse effects of this exposure on health are unknown, the VA Airborne Hazards and Open Burn Pit Registry (AHOBPR) was created. More than 209,000 participants to date have answered the registry questionnaire about the extent of exposure to burn pits and other airborne hazards. The questions attempted to quantify the duration of exposure, the severity of acute health effects, and the relative timing of onset or worsening of chronic respiratory, cardiovascular, neurological, and other illnesses. However, the AHOBPR interview lacks specific inquiry about mental health and biomarkers. The proposed study will recruit AHOBPR participants and non-participant for a follow-up enhanced evaluation of their health in a translational research study to better characterize their psychological, physical health profile, and potentially harmful epigenetic and biochemical exposure-related alterations. Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that 1) the severity of individual exposure to burn pits will be positively correlated with levels of persistent organic pollutants in blood and metals in urine and specific epigenetic alterations in DNA methylation; and 2) levels of toxic chemicals and alterations in the methylation of specific genes will be positively correlated with chronic problems involving the cardiovascular, respiratory, neuropsychiatric and other systems. Specific Aims: (1) Describe and quantify relationships of the intensity and duration of exposure with persistent organic chemicals/metals in the registry participants and ascertain their relationships with health outcomes linked to burn pit exposure. (2) Discover and validate DNA methylation marks that best distinguish between individuals exposed to burn pits and those not; then describe and quantify the relationships between DNA methylation, intensity and duration of exposure, and health outcomes. Completion of these aims will allow quantitation of the relationships between toxic chemicals, DNA methylation, and individual health problems. Study Design: A clinical study will be conducted at the Central Arkansas Veterans Healthcare System and the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. The AHOBPR registry and non-specific recruitment will be used to enroll OBP exposed (N=220) and age and gender-matched unexposed (N=110) veterans. The unexposed veterans will be given the same questions as in the AHOBPR to determine their open burn pit exposure status with a confirmation of no exposure. A single study visit per participant will strengthen the registry by validating its contents using the electronic patient record and adding new study data on physical and mental function, including effects of epigenetic and toxicant measures obtained from blood and urine samples. Linear and logistic regression modeling will be used to determine the relationships described by the study aims while controlling for confounding variables and false discovery rates. Long-term and Short-term Impact on Patient Populations: The immediate goal of the study is to measure exposure-related differences in levels of potentially toxic chemicals present in blood and urine and differences in DNA methylation. The study will then determine the relationships between exposure, the biochemical and molecular measures, and the presence of health problems. The value of this information is high since the effects of burn pit exposure are largely unknown but potentially serious. The longer-term goal for this line of investigation is to enable personalized and tailored health management for exposed individuals. The investigators believe that the biochemical and molecular measures may become novel biomarkers that enable the prediction of risk for disease and adverse disease outcomes such that preventative measures can be employed. Furthermore, the results will be highly relevant to other occupations in which exposure to airborne pollutants is high. Read Less

This study is one of the three projects of an NIH Rare Disease Clinical Research Consortium. A "consortium" is a group of centres sharing information and resources to perform research. The consortium research focuses on brain blood vessel malformations in three different rare diseases. The focus of this specific study is on Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT). HHT is a condition characterized by blood vessel malformations, called telangiectasia and arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), occurring in the brain, nose, lungs, stomach, bowels and liver. Brain AVMs (BAVMs) in HHT are difficult to study because they are rare, affecting approximately 10% of people with HHT. While other types of BAVMs have been studied in depth, studies in the HHT population have been very small. Here, we propose the first large-scale collaboration by joining with 12 HHT Centers of Excellence in North America to perform a large study of risk factors for bleeding from BAVMs, called intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) in HHT patients. The current standard of clinical practice across North America, is to screen all HHT patients for BAVMs with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). If BAVMs are detected, patients are referred to a multidisciplinary neurovascular team for consideration for treatment. Treatment decisions are made on a case by case basis, balancing risks of complications from the BAVM with risks of therapy, but are limited by the few studies available in HHT. We hope that the knowledge we obtain about the risk factors for intracranial bleeding in these patients from this larger study will help us to improve the care of HHT patients. We plan to study risk factors for rupture of BAVMs, including primarily genetics and imaging characteristics of the BAVMs. Knowledge about risk factors will help in the care and management of HHT patients. This will be achieved through the collection of health information to construct a HHT database, blood sampling and banking (through the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke \[NINDS\]), and through genetic analysis at the University of California San Francisco.
