Defining the Natural History of Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Fanconi Anemia
Recruiting
Background: Fanconi anemia (FA) is an inherited disorder. People with FA are more likely to get certain cancers, especially squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). These cancers usually appear first in the mouth, esophagus, and genital and anal areas. Early detection of SCCs may help improve survival rates for people with FA. Objective: This natural history study will regularly screen people with FA for SCC. Eligibility: People aged 12 years and older with FA or a prior cancer diagnosis. Children ag... Read More

Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative 4
Recruiting
Since its launch in 2004, the overarching aim of the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) Study has been to validate biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease (AD) clinical trials. ADNI4 continues the previously funded ADNI1, ADNI-GO, ADNI2, and ADNI3 studies that have combined public/private collaborations between academia and industry to determine the relationships between the clinical, cognitive, imaging, genetic and biochemical biomarker characteristics of the entire spectrum of AD.

Observational Study to Deeply Phenotype Major Organs in Sickle Cell Disease After Curative Therapies
Recruiting
Background: People with sickle cell disease (SCD) have problems with their heart, brain, kidneys, liver, and lungs as they age. These problems may improve after transplant. Researchers want to learn how and why this happens. Objective: To study the benefits of treatments that are intended to cure SCD. Eligibility: People aged 18 and older with SCD who are either receiving curative therapy in the next 3 months or don t have any plans to receive a curative therapy in the next 2 years. Design...

Hyperspectral Analysis of Sweat Metabolite Biometrics for Real-Time Detection of COVID-19
Recruiting
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has challenged the health systems worldwide. Many tools have been developed in response to the pandemic, but there is no current way to quickly screen multiple people for the disease. Research has shown that people with COVID-19 have higher levels of some proteins involved in the immune response and inflammation. These proteins can be detected in sweat using a special camera. Researchers want to see if analysis of sweat from fingerprints could be used to detect... Read More

Predictors of Pregnancy Outcome in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS)
Recruiting
The PROMISSE Study is an observational study of 700 pregnant patients, enrolled at nine major clinical centers. The purpose of the study is 1) to determine whether certain proteins (called complement split products) that can injure healthy organs can be used to predict poor pregnancy outcome in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and anti-phospholipid syndrome (APS), and/or 2) to determine whether elevated levels of circulating antiangiogenic factors predict pregnancy complications...

A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effects of Repeated Doses of 3BNC117-LS and 10-1074-LS on Persistent Viral Reservoirs in People Living With HIV and on Suppressive Antiretroviral Therapy
Recruiting
Background: Antiretroviral therapy (ART) can suppress HIV to undetectable levels in people, but the virus rebounds quickly if the drug treatment is stopped; this is because HIV can remain dormant in a pool of blood cells called the persistent viral reservoir (PVR). Yet lifelong ART is expensive and can lead to serious side effects over the long term. Some drugs may be more effective at reducing the PVR. Objective: To see if 2 study drugs (3BNC117-LS and 10-1074-LS) are safe and if they can lo... Read More
