The Effects of an Acute High-intensity Exercise on Heart and Brain Function in People with Spinal Cord Injury
Recruiting
The heart and brain are regulated by the autonomic nervous system. Control of these organs can be disrupted in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). This may affect their ability to regulate blood pressure during daily activities and process the high-level information. Previous studies show that high-intensity exercise induces better outcomes on heart and information processing ability in non-injured people compared to moderate-intensity exercise. However, it is unknown the effects of high-inten... Read More

Krabbe Disease Global Patient Registry
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to develop a clinical database of individuals diagnosed with Krabbe disease in order to determine which symptoms herald the onset of clinical disease in the various phenotypes of Krabbe disease; to determine whether level of GALC enzyme activity, or a specific genetic mutation predict the clinical course; and to determine which neurodiagnostic tests predict onset and/or severity of the disease.

Testosterone Replacement Therapy for the Treatment of Low Testosterone in Hypogonadal Men With Localized Prostate Cancer on Active Surveillance
Recruiting
This phase IV trial studies the effects of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) on treatment outcomes in hypogonadal men with prostate cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body (localized) and who are on active surveillance (AS). AS in prostate cancer involves closely watching the patient's condition through regular physical exams and blood tests, but not giving treatment unless there are changes in test results. It can be a practical alternative to treatment in localized prostate... Read More

Real World Use of Emicizumab in Infants and Children Ages 0-3 Years With Hemophilia A
Recruiting
We have developed a questionnaire to elucidate the dosing, frequency and indication for the use of emicizumab in patients with Hemophilia A (mild, moderate or severe) ages 0-3 years. We are also collecting data on any pre-, peri and post surgical practices while on emicizumab. More importantly, we are asking if pediatricians are planning to introduce factor 8 to children who are already on emicizumab for primary prophylaxis as well as how and when they are planning to do so. We hope that this da... Read More

CPX-351 for the Treatment of Secondary Acute Myeloid Leukemia in Patients Younger Than 60 Years Old
Recruiting
This phase II trial studies how well liposome-encapsulated daunorubicin-cytarabine (CPX-351) works in treating patients with secondary acute myeloid leukemia who are younger than 60 years old. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as CPX-351, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.
