Comparing the Effectiveness of Matched Related Donor Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation to Disease Modifying Therapy in Pediatric Patients With Sickle Cell Disease
Recruiting
The WeDecide study is a large observational study comparing the long-term effects of matched related donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (MRD HCT) and non-transplant disease-modifying therapies (NT-DMT) for pediatric patients with sickle cell disease (SCD). The study aims to assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL), cognitive function, risks, and benefits of both treatments, including survival rates, chronic complications, and organ damage prevention. With 160 children in the MRD... Read More

Targeted Therapy to Increase RAI Uptake in Metastatic DTC
Recruiting
Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is a common type of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) in children and represents the second most common cancer in adolescent females. Recently targeted drugs that block many of the genetic drivers of DTC have become available. While Investigators know that these drugs shrink DTC tumors in many cases, the impact on radioactive iodine (RAI) avidity has not been systematically studied.

An Extension and Crossover Vaccination Study on the Immune Response and Safety of a Vaccine Against Respiratory Syncytial Virus Given to Adults 60 Years of Age and Above Who Participated in RSV OA=ADJ-006 Study
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is: * To investigate the optimal timing for revaccination after the initial RSVPreF3 OA vaccine dose, * To evaluate the long-term immune persistence and safety up to 5 consecutive RSV seasons (approximately 60 months) of a single dose of RSVPreF3 OA vaccine, * To give the opportunity to participants who received only placebo in the RSVOA=ADJ- 006 study, to receive a dose of the RSVPreF3 OA vaccine and collect additional safety information.

Indocyanine Green (ICG) Guided Sentinel Lymph Node Mapping for Pediatric Visceral Solid Tumors
Recruiting
The purpose of the study is to find out the usefulness and safety of a dye called Indocyanine Green (ICG for short). This dye will be used to help the surgeon find lymph nodes draining solid tumors inside the abdomen that need to be removed. This may also help the surgeon to find if the cancer has moved to other lymph nodes outside of the known area. Primary Objectives * To determine the percentage of patients in whom Indocyanine Green (ICG)-guided sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping was success... Read More

Milrinone for Prevention of Post-ligation Cardiac Syndrome Trial
Recruiting
The goal of this Phase 3, randomized, masked clinical trial is to is to find out whether milrinone, when given to infants after PDA closure, will help the heart work better by supplying oxygen to the lungs and tissues. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. to determine if milrinone decreases the risk of death or PLCS within 7 days of the procedure, compared to standard treatment; and 2. to determine the effects of milrinone on two-year survival and neurodevelopmental outcome.
