Body Composition Changes After TIPS and Associated Clinical Outcomes
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to prospectively assess the impact of TIPS creation on muscle mass and physical function in patients with cirrhosis, and to determine whether these changes correlate with improved outcomes in patients awaiting liver transplantation. Retrospective observational studies have shown improvement in muscle mass and body composition in cirrhotic patients undergoing TIPS. The investigators aim to now prospectively study this through a pilot randomized controlled trial tracki... Read More

Promoting Math in Young Children: Leveraging Pediatric Clinics to Reach Underrepresented Children in Rural Communities
Recruiting
The goals of this clinical trial to examine how pediatricians prescribing early math enriching texts to the parents of their patients affects the early math skills of under-resourced pre-kindergarten-aged children in rural Oregon. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the impact of the text intervention on early math skills in preschool-aged children? Participants will be randomized to receive the early math text intervention or standard of care. Researchers will compare pre-and-post m... Read More

Caloric Restriction and Activity to Reduce Chemoresistance in B-ALL
Recruiting
This study is for older children, adolescents, and young adults with B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL). Higher amounts of body fat is associated with resistance to chemotherapy in patients with B-ALL. Chemotherapy during the first month causes large gains in body fat in most people, even those who start chemotherapy at a healthy weight. This study is being done to find out if caloric restriction achieved by a personalized nutritional menu and exercise plan during routine chemotherapy... Read More

Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) on IVF Embryos and Individual Patients
Recruiting
This research project aims to utilise recent advances in whole genome sequencing of preimplantation genetic diagnosis embryos to investigate the impact of paternal age on de novo mutation rates in IVF embryos. Embryos that are deemed unsuitable for transfer following preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic/single gene disorders (PGT-M) due to the detection of genetic abnormalities will be utilized for this study. These embryos will undergo re-biopsy, and both the biopsied samples as well a... Read More

Part II: Granulocyte-Colony Stimulating Factor Adjunct Therapy for Biliary Atresia
Recruiting
The Investigators propose to test the hypothesis that GCSF enhances the clinical outcome of biliary atresia in a multi-institutional Phase 2 trial to prospectively evaluate the safety and efficacy of GCSF in each of the 2 groups of newly diagnosed BA patients: KBA (i.e., Kasai-operated) or NoK (i.e., patients who did not undergo Kasai surgery). Subjects who participate in the trial will be followed for 2 years.

Adoptive Cell Therapy Using Cancer Specific CD8+ Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes in Adult Patients With Solid Tumors
Recruiting
The subject of this study is the adoptive transfer of selected autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) after in vitro expansion for the treatment of solid tumor malignancies. The TIL selection process is based on evidence showing that CD8+ TIL which co-express both CD39 and CD103 harbor the bulk of tumor-reactivity and that the remaining CD8 TIL is mainly composed of non-tumor reactive bystander cells. All of the expanded TIL that are produced (1-40 billion are expected) will be delivere... Read More
