Testing the Addition of 131I-MIBG or Lorlatinib to Intensive Therapy in People With High-Risk Neuroblastoma (NBL)
This phase III trial studies iobenguane I-131 or lorlatinib and standard therapy in treating younger patients with newly-diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma or ganglioneuroblastoma. Radioactive drugs, such as iobenguane I-131, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and not harm normal cells. Lorlatinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving iobenguane I-131 or lorlatinib and standard therapy may work better compared to lorlatinib and standard therapy alone in treating younger patients with neuroblastoma or ganglioneuroblastoma.

Active Surveillance, Bleomycin, Etoposide, Carboplatin or Cisplatin in Treating Pediatric and Adult Patients With Germ Cell Tumors
This phase III trial studies how well active surveillance help doctors to monitor subjects with low risk germ cell tumors for recurrence after their tumor is removed. When the germ cell tumor has spread outside of the organ in which it developed, it is considered metastatic. Chemotherapy drugs, such as bleomycin, carboplatin, etoposide, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. The trial studies whether carboplatin or cisplatin is the preferred chemotherapy to use in treating metastatic standard risk germ cell tumors.
* There is no age limit for the low risk stratum (stage I ovarian immature teratoma and stage I non-seminoma or seminoma malignant GCT \[all sites\])
* Standard risk 1: Patients must be \< 11 years of age at enrollment
* Standard risk 2: Patients must be \>= 11 and \< 25 years of age at enrollment

* Among patients were initially diagnosed with completely resected non-seminoma malignant GCT and later recur during observation post surgery, a diagnostic biopsy is not required for enrollment if elevated tumor markers rise to \> 5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) on at least 2 measurements taken at least 1 week apart. The pathology report of initial surgery should be provided
* Patients may be enrolled without histologic or cytologic confirmation in the rare case where there are exceptionally raised tumor markers (alpha fetoprotein \[AFP- ≥ 500 ng/mL or HCG ≥ 500 IU/L) and radiologic features consistent with GCT. In addition, the treating clinician must deem that the patient's tumor is not suitable for upfront resection and that a biopsy is not in the patient's best interest; or that there is a need to start therapy urgently

* Site: testicular; stage: COG stage II-IV, AJCC stage II, III, IGCCC good risk; histology: must contain at least one of the following: yolk sac tumor, embryonal carcinoma, or choriocarcinoma: must be IGCCC good risk; post op: alpha-FP \< 1,000 ng/mL, beta-HCG \< 5,000 IU/mL and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) \< 3.0 x normal; age (years) \>= 11 and \< 25
* Notes:
* IGCCC criteria only apply to SR2 patients with a testicular primary tumor

Show full eligibility criteria
Hide eligibility criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
• Patients with primary skin vasculitis, not associated with any significant extra-cutaneous involvement that would require specific immunosuppressive therapy. Eligible patients will have a diagnosis of either:
* Isolated cutaneous small vessel (SV) or medium-sized vessel (MV) vasculitis or cutaneous polyarteritis nodosa (PAN)
* IgA vasculitis (IgA, formerly Henoch-Schönlein purpura), without active and/or progressing renal involvement (stable glomerular filtration rate (GFR) \>60 ml/min; absence of, or mild-and-stable microscopic hematuria without red blood cell casts; absence of, or mild-and-stable proteinuria (\<1g/24 hours); not requiring systemic immunosuppressive therapy).
These conditions, when skin-limited, are all currently treated in similar manners in practice. Mild arthralgias, myalgias, peripheral limb edema, fatigue, weight loss ≤6 lbs or 3 kg within past 3 months, low-grade fever, and mild anemia (Hb ≥ 10 g/dL) will be allowed.
• The diagnosis of vasculitis must have been confirmed by skin biopsy prior to enrollment (earlier, at diagnosis, and/or just prior to enrollment) that has included an immunofluorescence study (in the case of small vessel vasculitis).
• Patients must have active cutaneous vasculitis lasting for at least 1 month continuously and/or have had 2 or more flares over the six months preceding enrollment (post-inflammatory lesions such as hyperpigmentation or healing ulceration(s) are not to be considered active vasculitis).
• Patients must have active / ongoing cutaneous vasculitis lesions at the time of enrollment (post-inflammatory lesions such as hyperpigmentation or healing ulceration(s) are not to be considered active vasculitis).
• Patients may have a contra-indication to one of the study drug or have been treated prior to enrollment with one of the study medications but failed to respond to it (according to the study definitions of failure and if they have been on the drug at the target dose or higher for 3 months or longer) or had to stop it because of an adverse event. Such patients can be enrolled directly in the second stage of the study and be randomized to receive one of the two other study drugs. The number of such patients enrolled directly in stage 2 will be capped at 10 (10% of the total recruitment target).
• Patients may have received systemic glucocorticoids for their cutaneous vasculitis before enrollment. For the patients on prednisone at the time of enrollment, prednisone should be stopped within a maximum of 6 weeks after enrollment and initiation of the study drug, following a pre-defined tapering schedule. Patients on long-term, low and stable dose of glucocorticoids (≤5 mg/day prednisone-equivalent) for other conditions (e.g., asthma or adrenal insufficiency) can be enrolled if the likelihood of requiring a dose increase for this other condition is low during the 6 month study period (these patients will remain on that low and stable dose during the study period, with the option to receive one short course of prednisone at higher doses for skin vasculitis flare during the first 3 months of the study period, like any other patients enrolled).
• Participant age 18 years or greater.
Exclusion Criteria:
• Presence of significant extra-cutaneous manifestations suggestive of a systemic vasculitis or more diffuse condition. The presence of mild arthralgias, myalgias, peripheral limb edema, fatigue, weight loss ≤6 lbs or 3 kg within past 3 months, low-grade fever, and mild anemia \[Hb ≥ 10 g/dL\] are not exclusion criteria. Mild and stable microscopic hematuria without RBC casts and/or mild and stable proteinuria (\<1g/24 hours) are not exclusion criteria. These latter patients must not require systemic immunosuppressive therapy because of possible renal involvement and their GFR must be \>60 ml/min.
• Known systemic and/or non-skin-isolated vasculitis, such as granulomatosis with polyangiitis, eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis, cryoglobulinemic vasculitis, systemic polyarteritis nodosa, central nervous system vasculitis and patients with detectable antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) by immunofluorescence or ELISA.

Investigators should consider such underlying diagnoses and perform and interpret appropriate laboratory work-up where indicated based on clinical presentation.
• History of significant intolerance, allergy or serious adverse events to any of the study medications: such patients can be enrolled directly in the second stage of the study and be randomized to receive one of the two other study drugs. The number of patients enrolled directly in stage 2 of the study will be capped at 10 (10%).
• Patients who have contra-indications to two or three of the study drugs (azathioprine, colchicine, or dapsone), or have been treated prior to enrollment with two or three of the study drugs but failed to respond to them, or had to stop two or three of them because of adverse events.
• Deficit in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) or history of hemolytic anemia (all patients must be tested for G6PD at the screening visit to assess for their eligibility): such patients can be enrolled directly in the second stage of the study and be randomized to receive one of the two other study drugs (azathioprine or colchicine). The number of patients enrolled directly in stage 2 of the study will be capped at 10 (10%).
• Low or absent thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) activity (if known, not a requirement for study entry): Patients known to have low or absent TPMT can be enrolled directly in the second stage of the study and be randomized to receive one of the two other study drugs (dapsone or colchicine).
• Evidence of significant hepatic insufficiency or liver function tests \> 2 times the upper limit of normal.
• Evidence of significant renal insufficiency or creatinine clearance \< 60 mL/min.
• Evidence of significant or symptomatic anemia or Hb \< 10 g/dL.

Dallas 2K: A Natural History Study of Depression (D2K)
The primary objective of this initiative is to implement a prospective study that will allow us to identify and validate biosignatures of response to treatments for depression and depression outcome (using an integrated array of participant specific data: socio-demographic, lifestyle, clinical and behavioral assessments, fluid-based biomarkers, genomics, neuroimaging, EEG, and cell-based assays) in a longitudinal cohort of subjects with elevated symptoms of a depressive disorder.
Symptom remission across various treatment options will be assessed using questionnaires for symptom changes, antidepressant treatment tolerability and overall quality of life. Other outcomes generated from this study will include rate of change in quantitative measures of brain function, of depression relevant brain regions correlated with systems-levels behavior and other functional neuro-circuitry MRI measures. Rate of change of specified biochemical biomarkers will also be assessed.
Integration of these measures will provide an unmatched understanding into the mechanisms of depression and hold tremendous promise for better disease treatment and associated outcomes.

Radiation Therapy With or Without Cisplatin in Treating Patients With Stage III-IVA Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck Who Have Undergone Surgery
This phase II trial studies how well radiation therapy with or without cisplatin works in treating patients with stage III-IVA squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck who have undergone surgery. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known if radiation therapy is more effective with or without cisplatin in treating patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.

Safety and Efficacy Study in Recurrent or Progressive Grade III or IV IDH1 Mutated Glioma
This multi-site, Phase 1/2a clinical trial is an open-label study to identify the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of a repeated dose regimen of NEO100 (perillyl alcohol) for the treatment of patients with radiographically-confirmed progression of Grade IV glioma or recurrent primary or secondary Grade IV glioma. The study will have two phases, Phase 1 and Phase 2a. Phase 1 is a standard cohort dose escalation 3+3 design used to determine the maximum tolerated dose for Phase 2a. There will be up to 24 patients enrolled in Phase 1. There will be 25 patients enrolled in Phase 2a. For both phases of the study, NEO100 will be self-administered four times daily for a 28-day treatment cycles until disease progression, death or patient withdraw from study for any reason, whichever occurs first.
Version 10 of the protocol changed the inclusion criteria for Phase 2a to limit inclusion to those patients with progressive or recurrent primary or secondary Grade IV gliomas expressing IDH1 mutations. Prior to the protocol amendment, 4 patients were enrolled who were IDH1 wild-type. Therefore, an additional 28 patients will be recruited for a total of 32 patients enrolled into Phase 2a of this study to have 35 evaluable cases.
Version 12 of the protocol expanded the inclusion criteria for Phase 2a to include those patients with progressive or recurrent Grade III Astrocytoma expressing IDH1 mutations.
Review of the literature specific to these patients found the same expected time to progression and death. As a result, the number of patients to enroll remains 32 to have 35 evaluable cases.

The purpose of this research study is to develop a method of using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to evaluate lung tumors and other thoracic malignancies. An MRI is a scanning device that uses magnets to make images (pictures) of the body. This study is being done to determine what series of reactions (metabolic pathways) pulmonary nodules use as they burn sugar as fuel for growth. The manner in which the tumor burns (metabolizes) sugar for fuel is being investigated by using a natural, slightly modified, sugar solution (13C-glucose) and studying a small sample of the tumor once it is removed at the time of surgery.
• Patients must have known or probable malignant lesions requiring surgical biopsy or excision.
• Subjects of all races and ethnic origins over 18 years of age.
Exclusion Criteria:
• Not a surgical candidate.
• Poorly controlled diabetes.
Testing Docetaxel-Cetuximab or the Addition of an Immunotherapy Drug, Atezolizumab, to the Usual Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy in High-Risk Head and Neck Cancer
This phase II/III trial studies how well radiation therapy works when given together with cisplatin, docetaxel, cetuximab, and/or atezolizumab after surgery in treating patients with high-risk stage III-IV head and neck cancer the begins in the thin, flat cells (squamous cell). Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin and docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Cetuximab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. The purpose of this study is to compare the usual treatment (radiation therapy with cisplatin chemotherapy) to using radiation therapy with docetaxel and cetuximab chemotherapy, and using the usual treatment plus an immunotherapy drug, atezolizumab.

The US food and Drug Administration (FDA) originally approved INTACS prescription inserts in
April 1999 for the correction of low levels of nearsightedness (-1.00 to -3.00 diopters).
Additional clinical data have shown that INTACS are safe for the treatment of keratoconus,
in July 2004, FDA approved INTACS inserts for the treatment of keratoconus as a Humanitarian
Use Device (FDA approval letter attached). The statute and the implementing regulation of
FDA (21 CFR 814.124 (aj) require IRB review and approval before a HUD is used.INTACS
prescription inserts are composed of two clear segments, each having an arc length of 150°,
they are manufactured form a biomedical material called polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) and
are available in three thicknesses. Two INTACS inserts ranging from 0.250mm to 0.350mm may
be implanted depending on the orientation of the cone and the amount of myopia and
astigmatism to be reduced.

RATIONALE
The accrual of data from the laboratory and from epidemiologic and prevention trials has
improved the understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes mellitus
(T1DM). Genetic and immunologic factors play a key role in the development of T1DM, and
characterization of the early metabolic abnormalities in T1DM is steadily increasing.
However, information regarding the natural history of T1DM remains incomplete. The TrialNet
Natural History Study of the Development of T1DM (Pathway to Prevention Study) has been
designed to clarify this picture, and in so doing, will contribute to the development and
implementation of studies aimed at prevention of and early treatment in T1DM.
Purpose:
TrialNet is an international network dedicated to the study, prevention, and early treatment
of type 1 diabetes. TrialNet sites are located throughout the United States, Canada,
Finland, United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Sweden, Australia, and New Zealand. TrialNet is
dedicated to testing new approaches to the prevention of and early intervention for type 1
diabetes.
The goal of the TrialNet Natural History Study of the Development of Type 1 Diabetes is to
enhance our understanding of the demographic, immunologic, and metabolic characteristics of
individuals at risk for developing type 1 diabetes.
The Natural History Study will screen relatives of people with type 1 diabetes to identify
those at risk for developing the disease. Relatives of people with type 1 diabetes have
about a 5% percent chance of being positive for the antibodies associated with diabetes.
TrialNet will identify adults and children at risk for developing diabetes by testing for
the presence of these antibodies in the blood. A positive antibody test is an early
indication that damage to insulin-secreting cells may have begun. If this test is positive,
additional testing will be offered to determine the likelihood that a person may develop
diabetes. Individuals with antibodies will be offered the opportunity for further testing to
determine their risk of developing diabetes over the next 5 years and to receive close
monitoring for the development of diabetes.
• Individuals 1 to 45 years old who have an immediate family member with type 1
diabetes (such as a child, parent, or sibling)
• Individuals 1-20 years old who have an extended family member with type 1 diabetes
(such as a cousin, niece, nephew, aunt, uncle, grandparent, or half-sibling)
Exclusion Criteria:
To be eligible a person must not:
• Have diabetes already
• Have a previous history of being treated with insulin or oral diabetes medications.
• Currently be using systemic immunosuppressive agents (topical and inhaled agents are
acceptable)
• Have any known serious diseases

A Study of Pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in Pediatric Participants With an Advanced Solid Tumor or Lymphoma (MK-3475-051/KEYNOTE-051)
This is a two-part study of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in pediatric participants who have any of
the following types of cancer:
- advanced melanoma (6 months to <18 years of age),
- advanced, relapsed or refractory programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)-positive malignant
solid tumor or other lymphoma (6 months to <18 years of age),
- relapsed or refractory classical Hodgkin lymphoma (rrcHL) (3 years to <18 years of age),
or
- advanced relapsed or refractory microsatellite-instability-high (MSI-H) solid tumors (6
months to <18 years of age).
Part 1 will find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/maximum administered dose (MAD), confirm
the dose, and find the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for pembrolizumab therapy. Part 2 will
further evaluate the safety and efficacy at the pediatric RP2D.
The primary hypothesis of this study is that intravenous (IV) administration of pembrolizumab
to children with either advanced melanoma; a PD-L1 positive advanced, relapsed or refractory
solid tumor or other lymphoma; advanced, relapsed or refractory MSI-H solid tumor; or rrcHL,
will result in an Objective Response Rate (ORR) greater than 10% for at least one of these
types of cancer.

Safety Study of Cord Blood Units for Stem Cell Transplants
Background:
- Cord blood is blood that is taken from the umbilical cord and placenta of healthy newborns
after childbirth. The cord blood collected from a baby is called a cord blood unit. Cord
blood units are stored frozen in public cord blood banks. About 10,000 cord blood
transplants have been performed in children and adults for blood cancers and other diseases
in the world. These transplants have helped save lives and improve treatments. However, not
all available units of cord blood have been collected, stored, and licensed according to
specific government requirements. These unlicensed units can still be used in transplant,
but they can only be given as part of specific research studies. This study will evaluate
the safety of giving these unlicensed units by recording any problems that may occur during
and after giving the cord blood.
Objectives:
- To test the safety and effectiveness of unlicensed cord blood units in people who need
stem cell transplants.
Eligibility:
- Individuals who are scheduled to have a stem cell transplant.
Design:
- Participants will be screened with a medical history and physical exam.
- Participants will receive the cord blood unit as part of their stem cell transplant
procedure. The transplant will be performed according to the current standard of care
for the procedure.
- After the transplant, participants will be monitored for up to 1 year. Any problems or
side effects from the transplant will be treated as necessary. All outcomes will be
reported to the National Cord Blood Program and to the Center for International Blood
and Marrow Transplant.
• INCLUSION CRITERIA:
• Patients of any age or either gender with indications for receipt of investigational
HPC-CORD BLOOD who are participating in an NIH-IRB approved clinical trial for
unrelated hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
• Signed informed consent (and assent when applicable).
EXCLUSION CRITERIA:
• Patients who are receiving licensed CB products (only)
• Patients who are receiving unlicensed CB products from other CB banks (i.e. NMDP)
Minimal change disease (MCD), focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), and Membranous
nephropathy (MN), generate an enormous individual and societal financial burden, accounting
for approximately 12% of prevalent end stage renal disease (ESRD) cases (2005) at an annual
cost in the US of more than $3 billion. However, the clinical classification of these
diseases is widely believed to be inadequate by the scientific community. Given the poor
understanding of MCD/FSGS and MN biology, it is not surprising that the available therapies
are imperfect. The therapies lack a clear biological basis, and as many families have
experienced, they are often not beneficial, and in fact may be significantly toxic. Given
these observations, it is essential that research be conducted that address these serious
obstacles to effectively caring for patients.
In response to a request for applications by the National Institutes of Health, Office of
Rare Diseases (NIH, ORD) for the creation of Rare Disease Clinical Research Consortia, a
number of affiliated universities joined together with The NephCure Foundation the NIDDK,
the ORDR, and the University of Michigan in collaboration towards the establishment of a
Nephrotic Syndrome (NS) Rare Diseases Clinical Research Consortium.
Through this consortium the investigators hope to understand the fundamental biology of
these rare diseases and aim to bank long-term observational data and corresponding
biological specimens for researchers to access and further enrich.
