ROSE-Longitudinal Assessment With Neuroimaging
Recruiting
The investigators will perform follow-up on 250 of 500 cases recruited into the ROSE study of cases with deep and lobar intracerebral hemorrhage to perform advanced neuroimaging at 12-24 months post stroke, and evaluations of motor and cognitive function at baseline, 6 months after baseline, and 12 months after baseline to determine predictors of recovery, progressive cognitive or functional impairment. The investigators propose to leverage the recruitment, DNA, RNA-seq and baseline advanced neu... Read More

Biochemical and Phenotypical Aspects of Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome and Related Disorders of Cholesterol Metabolism
Recruiting
Background: Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome (SLOS) is a genetic disorder. It can cause birth defects and developmental delays. There is no cure for SLOS or other inherited diseases related to cholesterol production or storage. The data gained in this study may help researchers find ways to measure how well future treatments work. Objective: To learn more about SLOS and related disorders and how these diseases affect participants and relatives. Eligibility: People of any age who have or are suspe... Read More

Clinical, Molecular and Imaging Biomarkers in Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy (SBMA)
Recruiting
Background: SBMA is an inherited chronic disease. It affects males in mid to late adulthood. It causes slowly progressive weakness of muscles and hand tremors. Researchers want to learn more about the effects of SBMA. Objective: To identify measurements that change over time in SBMA, including tests of muscle strength and function, as well as measurements of muscle and fat size. Eligibility: Men over the age of 18 both with and without a history of SBMA. Design: Participants will have a m... Read More

Perivenous Dexamethasone Therapy: Examining Reduction of Inflammation After Thrombus Removal to Yield Benefit in Acute Femoropopliteal DVT
Recruiting
This is a study of a medical procedure that utilizes a commercially available catheter (the BullfrogĀ® Micro-Infusion Device) to locally deliver a commercially available anti-inflammatory drug (dexamethasone sodium phosphate injection) around the deep veins after DVT recanalization, where DVT symptoms were present for up to 14 days prior to recanalization. The goal of the study is to see if local anti-inflammation helps prevent re-thrombosis of the blood vessel and improvement in symptoms for up... Read More

A Study to Test Radium-223 With Docetaxel in Patients With Prostate Cancer
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to compare any good and bad effects of using radium-223 along with docetaxel chemotherapy treatment versus using docetaxel alone. Earlier studies helped show that the combination is safe, but the combination has not been proven to work better than either drug alone. The goal of this study is to find out if combining docetaxel and radium-223 is better than giving either drug by itself.
