Congenital Hemolytic and Dyserythropoietic Anemias

The main reason for this research study is to further understand how some red blood cells are formed incorrectly or they have an abnormal metabolism in a way that they break easier in the circulation or during their passage through the spleen. Participants and/or family members diagnosed with non-immune hemolytic anemia due to a genetic disorder, such as, hemoglobin disorder, erythrocyte membrane skeleton disorders (e.g. spherocytosis, elliptocytosis, or stomatocytosis) or hydration defect (e.g. xerocytosis, overhydrocytosis) or red blood cell (RBC) enzyme disorders, or with a congenital dyserythropoietic anemia (CDA) will be asked to participate.

Dichoptic Treatment for Amblyopia in Children 8 to 12 Years of Age (ATS24)

Participants eligible for the study will be randomly allocated (1:1:1) to receive either Luminopia dichoptic treatment while wearing optical correction if needed, Vivid Vision dichoptic treatment while wearing optical correction if needed, or continued optical correction alone if needed, with clinical assessments at 9- and 18-weeks post-randomization. At the 18-week primary outcome visit, participants who were randomly assigned to receive optical correction alone if needed with an IOD of 1 logMAR line (5 letters) or more, will be offered randomization to Luminopia or Vivid Vision dichoptic therapy and if they accept, followed forward with visits at 27- and 36-weeks post-randomization. The study will end for all other participants at 18 weeks.

Efficacy of Tezepelumab in Peanut Oral Immunotherapy (ZENITH)

The proposed study is a proof-of-concept Phase 2, double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of tezepelumab and peanut Oral Immunotherapy (OIT) for the treatment of peanut allergy. Study participation is divided into 3 periods: (i) a monotherapy period comprised of injections of either Tezepelumab or placebo from week 0 to week 8, (ii) followed by a combination therapy period comprised of 56 weeks during which peanut OIT is built up and maintained, and (iii) a treatment withdrawal period comprised of 12 weeks. This study will enroll 62 peanut-allergic individuals from 12 to 55 years of age who experience dose-limiting symptoms to \<=100 mg of peanut protein in a single dose (\<= 144 mg cumulative dose) as assessed by DBPCFC. The primary objective is to determine whether 56 weeks of tezepelumab plus peanut OIT as compared to 56 weeks of placebo plus peanut OIT induces sustained unresponsiveness to peanut 12 weeks after stopping combination therapy.

Extended vs Short-term Abatacept Dosing for Graft Versus Host Disease Prophylaxis (ABA3)

This is a multicenter randomized, double blind, Phase 2 trial for patients receiving transplants from 7 of 8 HLA matched donors, in which an extended dosing regimen of abatacept, and a short-term dosing regimen + placebo, when added to standard calcineurin inhibitor + methotrexate-based prophylaxis, will be compared for their ability to improve outcomes in patients with a minimum follow-up of one year post-transplant. All patients will receive 4 doses of abatacept (Days -1, +5, +14, +28). Prior to the fifth dose, patients will be randomly assigned to the 4-dose abatacept arm and receive 4 doses of placebo or 8-dose abatacept arm and receive 4 more doses of abatacept. The primary endpoint of the study will be severe AGVHD-free, severe CGVHD-free, relapse-free survival (SGRFS). The study will end when the last patient has reached 2 years after transplant. Results will first be calculated and the study unblinded when the last patient has reached one year post-transplant.

Hide eligibility criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

• Must be at least 2 years old and weigh 10 kg.
• Must have a willing unrelated adult donor (bone marrow or peripheral blood). Donors may have a single mismatch (i.e. be a 7/8) and this mismatch may be at the allele or antigen level; however, donors with allele level disparity should be given preference over those with antigen level disparity. Patients for whom a donor is available with disparity only in the host versus graft direction (because of recipient homozygosity), will not be eligible, since this mismatching does not increase the risk for GVHD. Centers may perform extended typing (e.g. DQB1 and DPB1) according to institutional practices and use these results in selecting donors; however, it is recommended that this extending typing be used only to select between donors who are equally well matched with the recipient at the A, B, C and DRB1.
• All patients and/or their parents or legal guardians must sign a written informed consent. Assent, when appropriate, will be obtained according to institutional guidelines.
• Must have a hematologic malignancy treatable by HCT (except for those stipulated below under study Exclusion Criteria), which is in remission by standard testing (no patients in relapse will be included).
• Patients with an inherited predisposition to leukemia or otherwise hematologic malignancies that have not been associated with predisposition to transplant morbidities or non-hematologic cancers.
• Karnofsky performance score or Lanskey Play-Performance Scale score \>/= 80. * If the patient does not meet defined eligibility requirements, the PI/study committee must be contacted to determine eligibility.

Beeline: A Phase 3 Study in GRIN-related Neurodevelopmental Disorder

The Phase 3 portion of Study RAD-GRIN-101 is a multinational, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial followed by an open-label extension to evaluate the efficacy and safety of radiprodil in participants with GRIN-related neurodevelopmental disorder (GRIN-NDD) with a gain-of-function (GoF) genetic variant. This study will enroll two cohorts: one cohort of participants with a minimal number of countable motor seizures (with or without behavioral symptoms) (Phase 3 Cohort 1: Qualifying Seizures Cohort); and a second cohort with disease symptoms but no seizures or fewer seizures than required for the Qualifying Seizures Cohort (Phase 3 Cohort 2: Without Qualifying Seizures Auxiliary Cohort). Participants in each cohort will be randomized 1:1 to receive active drug (radiprodil) or matching placebo (Part A). Following completion of Part A, all eligible participants (including those previously on placebo) may continue into the open-label extension period (Part B) to receive radiprodil. The placebo-controlled portion is expected to be approximately 16 weeks for participants in Phase 3 Cohort 1 and 28 weeks for participants in Phase 3 Cohort 2. The study will evaluate the effect of radiprodil on seizures and non-seizure symptoms and assess safety.

ARPKD Database Study (ARPKD)

Hepato-renal fibrocystic diseases (HRFD) is a term developed that encompasses rare diseases such as Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease (ARPKD), and other diseases with common features (Joubert syndrome, Bardet Biedl syndrome, Meckel-Gruber syndrome, congenital hepatic fibrosis (CHF), Caroli syndrome (CS), polycystic liver disease, oro-facial-digital syndrome, nephronophithisis (NPHP), and glomerulocystic Kidney Disease). The lack of enough routinely available resources for these diseases to be well diagnosed and treated, would be best resolved by coordinated case accrual and sharing of clinical data and bio-specimens (DNA and tissues) among participating institutions, thereby leading to the centralization and sharing of clinical and genetic information, as well as bio-materials, providing an important engine for more rapid research progress and community understanding through the creation of research networks. This study aims to build a registry of a clinical database (medical health information), a mutational database (genetic information) and an educational resource about HRFD to eventually provide information about these diseases to families, physicians and genetic counselors via our existing HIPAA- approved study website. Goals for the Core A: The Hepato/Renal Fibrocystic Diseases Translational Resource are: 1. \- Clinical Database: • Expand our comprehensive Clinical Database to include information from all patients who meet the inclusion criteria for hepato/renal fibrocystic diseases. 2. \- Mutational Database: * Test children with ARPKD and other hepato/renal fibrocystic disease to identify genetic mutations, establish a DNA bank for patients with hepato/renal fibrocystic diseases and develop a Mutational Database. This Database will be capable of linking clinical and mutational information via a unique identifier in a searchable format to facilitate genetic research (e.g. genotype-phenotype correlations, new disease gene studies, and modifier gene studies), translational studies, and clinical trials. 3- Tissue Resource: * Much of the research that is performed on diseases of the kidney, including recessive genetic diseases, requires human tissue from both affected as well as non-affected (controls) individuals. In this Core Resource, we are establishing an independent tissue resource which would supply investigators throughout North America with samples of hepato/renal fibrocystic disease affected tissues for studies of these disorders. 4- Educational Resource: * Expand our multi-media, web-based resource to provide a reliable up-to-date, and comprehensive informational resource for ARPKD and Hepato/Renal Diseases families, their physicians, and genetic counselors.

Tegavivint for the Treatment of Recurrent or Refractory Solid Tumors, Including Lymphomas and Desmoid Tumors

This phase I/II trial evaluates the highest safe dose, side effects, and possible benefits of tegavivint in treating patients with solid tumors that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Tegavivint interferes with the binding of beta-catenin to TBL1, which may help stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the signals passed from one molecule to another inside a cell that tell a cell to grow.

Testing the Addition of the Anti-cancer Drug Venetoclax and/or the Anti-cancer Immunotherapy Blinatumomab to the Usual Chemotherapy Treatment for Infants With Newly Diagnosed KMT2A-rearranged or KMT2A-non-rearranged Leukemia

This phase II trial tests the addition of venetoclax and/or blinatumomab to usual chemotherapy for treating infants with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with a KMT2A gene rearrangement (KMT2A-rearranged \[R\]) or without a KMT2A gene rearrangement (KMT2A-germline \[G\]). Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival. Blinatumomab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs 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. Adding venetoclax and/or blinatumomab to standard chemotherapy may be more effective at treating patients with ALL than standard chemotherapy alone, but it may also cause more side effects. This clinical trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of adding venetoclax and/or blinatumomab to chemotherapy for the treatment of infants with KMT2A-R or KMT2A-G ALL.

Adolescent Outcomes of Post-operative Opioid EXposure (APEX)

The goal of this observational study is to examine the factors associated with the transition from medical exposure to opioids with "signposts" of future opioid use disorder among adolescent surgical patients. The main question aims to identify factors (moderators, mediators, and covariates) associated with risk factors for opioid use disorder (ROUD) in the 12 months following major surgery with opioid exposure among adolescents aged 12-17. Participants will be asked to complete electronic surveys pre- and post-operatively and approve the collection of peri-operative data from the Electronic Medical Record to assess correlations.

Belumosudil to Block Chronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction (CLAD) in High Risk Lung Transplant Recipients (CLAD)

The purpose of this study is to see if taking the study drug, Belumosudil, for 52 weeks in addition to your usual care and medication, will prevent Chronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction (CLAD) in participants who have a lung biopsy that shows evidence of rejection or inflammation to the transplanted lung(s). For this study, biopsies that show evidence of Acute Rejection (AR), Lymphocytic Bronchiolitis (LB), Organizing Pneumonia (OP) or Acute Lung Injury (ALI) are referred to as "Qualifying Biopsies"; patients who had evidence of one or more of these conditions on a recent biopsy are eligible for enrollment in this study. Belumosudil is an investigational drug that blocks a molecule in the body that reduces inflammation and scarring and may play a role in the development and progression of CLAD. Belumosudil is a drug approved by the FDA to treat adults and children 12 years and older with chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD), a condition with some similarities to CLAD. The primary objective it to determine the efficacy of treatment with Belumosudil + maintenance immunosuppression (IS) versus placebo + maintenance IS on preventing the subsequent development of probable or definite CLAD, lung retransplant, or death.

SMART@Home Feasibility Trial

The proposed research addresses the limitations or lack of a digital platform to provide remote care of medically complex patients. Previous attempts have had poor clinical validity and suffered lack of patient engagement. The study team will deconstruct the previously implemented SMART platforms to create a roadmap, platform, and template to guide clinicians to create new tools. Results from Phase 1 of this project highlighted the need for connectivity between the SMART@Home app and Bluetooth-enable devices to provide objective disease activity data as well as integration with Epic electronic health record so that providers can use the data to inform treatment planning and decision making. A subsequent pilot user validation trial is also needed to confirm development goals were met. Conducting a pilot user validation trial of the SMART@Home asthma tracker, spirometer, and action plan is the purpose of the next phases of this study. A beta test the SMART@Home Asthma Tracker and asthma action plan algorithm will take place with approximately 8 participants. Beta testing will have participants record simulated increases in symptoms to ensure appropriate levels of care is communicated via the app. Then, a group of 40 adolescent (ages 12-17) patients with asthma for a 6-month pilot Randomized Control Trial (RCT). Participants will be randomized into either the IMAAP SMART@Home (n=20) or control (n=20) groups following the completion of baseline measures to test the interactive asthma action plan functionality and impact.

A Study Using Nivolumab, in Combination With Chemotherapy Drugs to Treat Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC)

This phase II trial tests effects of nivolumab in combination with chemotherapy drugs prior to radiation therapy patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as gemcitabine 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. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Researchers want to find out what effects, good and/or bad, adding nivolumab to chemotherapy has on patients with newly diagnosed NPC. In addition, they want to find out if children with NPC may be treated with less radiation therapy and whether this decreases the side effects of therapy.

Bowel Continence Across the Lifespan in People With Spina Bifida (BCALS)

The goal of this observational study is to learn how different enema programs affect bowel control in children and adults with spina bifida. An enema program involves putting liquid into the large intestine (colon) to help someone poop. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. How well do different enema programs prevent bowel accidents? 2. How do these enema programs affect independence, bowel symptoms, and quality of life? Researchers will compare two types of enema programs to see which works better and is easier for participants to manage. Participants starting a new enema program will answer online survey questions at 3 different timepoints over the course of 1 year.

Neuroblastoma Biology Study

Medical scientists want to find better ways to treat neuroblastoma and to find ways to prevent the tumor from growing back. To do this, they need more information about the characteristics of neuroblastoma cells. Therefore, they want to study samples of neuroblastoma tissues and neuroblastoma and normal cells in the blood and bone marrow that may be related to the growth of neuroblastoma cells. Doctors and other medical scientists also want to find better ways to detect and measure neuroblastoma to improve the ability to follow the response of tumor cells to therapy.
