Endotheliopathy in Oncology

The purpose of this research study is to determine if certain markers in your blood are increased over the duration of your chemotherapy, especially as you get sicker, such as developing a severe infection (sepsis) or severe respiratory failure (acute respiratory distress syndrome).

Phase: Pilot

Actively recruiting: No

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Pediatric Leukemias, Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL), Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML), Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML), Juvenile Myelomonocytic Leukemia (JMML), Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma in Children, Hodgkin Lymphoma

Neurofibromatosis 1 Optic Glioma's - Understanding the mechanisms of Vision Loss for Visual Restoration Strategies

In this study we are seeking to learn how different eye tests and devices can help understand vision in patients with NF1, including how vision loss might show up on different eye imaging devices that measure the nerves or the blood vessels of the eye. The study aims to understand the mechanisms of vision loss caused by neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1)-associated optic pathway gliomas, or NF1-OPGs. Subjects eight years and older with NF1 are eligible to enroll.
Subjects may not benefit directly from participating in this study, but the knowledge gained will help doctors understand the potential benefit of using these tests and other procedures to improve their ability to identify the best tests to monitor visual function, and ultimately identify treatments to improve vision, in children and adults with NF1.

Phase: N/A

Actively recruiting: Yes

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Neurofibromatosis type 1

Tegavivint for the Treatment of Solid Tumors, Lymphomas & Desmoids

This study has two parts. Part A enrolls patients who have been diagnosed with a solid tumor, lymphoma or desmoid tumor that has either come back ("relapsed") or does not respond to therapy ("is refractory"). Part B enrolls patients with a relapsed or refractory Ewing sarcoma, desmoid tumor, osteosarcoma, liver tumor, Wilms tumor, or tumors with changes in a gene family known as the Wnt pathway. This study involves taking a study drug called tegavivint. The study will be testing different doses of the study drug to find the safest dose.

Phase: Phase I, Phase II

Actively recruiting: Yes

Category: Adults, Children

Conditions: Desmoid tumors , Ewing sarcoma, Hepatoblastoma (liver cancer), Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma in Children, Osteosarcoma (bone cancer in children), Wilms Tumor (Kidney Tumor)
