A Study of Mezagitamab in Adults With Chronic Primary Immune Thrombocytopenia
Recruiting
Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a condition where the immune system mistakenly destroys platelets, which are cells that help stop bleeding. This leads to a low number of platelets, making it easier to bruise or bleed. The main aim of this study is to learn whether mezagitamab, when given just under the skin (subcutaneously \[SC\]), is effective in keeping the platelet count of adults with ITP stable when compared to a placebo. A placebo looks like medicine but doesn't have any active in... Read More

NIAID Centralized Sequencing Protocol
Recruiting
Background: Genetic testing called "sequencing" helps researchers look at DNA. Genes are made of DNA and are the instructions for our bodies to function. We all have thousands of genes. DNA variants are differences in genes between two people. We all have lots of variants. Most are harmless and some cause differences like blue or brown eyes. A few variants can cause health problems. Objective: To understand the genetics of immune disorders various health conditions, as well as outcomes of cli... Read More

Testing the Addition of an Anti-cancer Drug, DT2216, to the Usual Chemotherapy Treatment for Relapsed or Refractory Solid Tumors and Fibrolamellar Carcinoma
Recruiting
This phase I/II trial tests the safety, side effects and best dose of DT2216 in combination with irinotecan and how well it works in treating children, adolescents and young adults with solid tumors and fibrolamellar cancer that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory). DT2216 is an anti-apoptotic protein B-cell lymphoma-extra large targeted protein degrader. It may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking Bcl-xL, a pro... Read More

BBD Longitudinal Study of Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Recruiting
Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) is a rare disorder of increased bone fragility characterized by fractures with minimal or absent trauma, dentinogenesis imperfecta (DI), and, in adult years, hearing loss. It is seen in both genders and all races. The clinical features of OI represent a continuum varying from perinatal lethality to individuals with severe skeletal deformities, mobility impairments, and very short stature to nearly asymptomatic individuals with a mild predisposition to fractures, norm...

CBL0137 for the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory Solid Tumors, Including CNS Tumors and Lymphoma
Recruiting
This phase I/II trial evaluates the best dose, side effects and possible benefit of CBL0137 in treating patients with solid tumors, including central nervous system (CNS) tumors or lymphoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Drugs, such as CBL0137, block signals passed from one molecule to another inside a cell. Blocking these signals can affect many functions of the cell, including cell division and cell death, and may kill cancer cells.
