An Open-Label, Proof of Concept Study of Vorinostat for the Treatment of Moderate-to-Severe Crohn s Disease and Maintenance Therapy with Ustekinumab
Crohn's disease is a chronic bowel illness that is a lifelong condition characterized by relapsing inflammation. Although there is no cure for Crohn's disease, researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are investigating if Vorinostat is safe for people with Crohn's Disease. Participants will receive maintenance therapy with Stelara® after successful treatment with Vorinostat.

Early Clonal Dynamics During Venetoclax Treatment for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)
The research study sets out to learn about changes in the genetic makeup of CLL during the early phase of treatment with venetoclax. The initial phase of venetoclax therapy can be medically and logistically challenging. Patients will receive expert medical care at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

The Use of 124-I-PET/CT Whole Body and Lesional Dosimetry in Differentiated Thyroid Cancer
Doctors at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) seek patients with thyroid cancer that spread outside the thyroid - to the lymph nodes, lungs or bones. The standard treatment in such situation is therapy with radioactive iodine (RAI). In this study, doctors will assess a new imaging tool - 124I PET/CT, which enables evaluation of how much iodine goes into the tumor. The study goal is to compare how much iodine goes into cancer cells after two different methods of stimulation of RAI uptake.

Low-Dose Danazol for the Treatment of Telomere Related Diseases
Researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are studying if the medication danazol can be used to treat people with short telomere disease who also have bone marrow failure, liver, or lung disease. In recent studies, danazol, at high doses, showed a positive influence on telomere length. Additional research is needed to learn more about the role of different doses of danazol on telomere disease as well as its effects on secondary diseases.
Investigation of the Natural Progression of Clonal Hematopoiesis of Indeterminate Potential and Clonal Cytopenia of Undetermined Significance
Doctors at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are conducting a study on patients with clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP). Patients with CHIP have a genetic mutation that has been associated with blood cancer. The study will look at CHIP and try to determine its relationship to blood cancers and heart disease. The study will also try to discover other new organs or diseases that may be linked with.
