Role of Genetic Factors in the Development of Lung Disease
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a progressive, genetic disease that causes persistent lung infections and over time limits the ability of individuals to breathe. Researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are studying the infection, disease progression, and abnormal genes responsible for cystic fibrosis to better understand the disease process and its effects on breathing.
Evaluation for NCI Surgery Branch Clinical Research Protocols
Doctors at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) are looking for volunteers with metastatic cancers, including breast, ovarian, endometrial, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, hepatobiliary, pancreatic, melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and multiple myeloma with solid masses. Potential participants will be evaluated with new immunotherapy treatments utilizing cell transfer immunotherapies in a research trial.
The Role of 68-Gallium-DOTATATE-PET/CT in the Imaging of Metastatic Thyroid Cancer
Did you know your thyroid gland produces hormones that regulate body temperature, heart rate and metabolism? Physicians want to explore a better method to detect thyroid tumors by using a compound called 68Gallium-DOTATATE. This compound may bind to a tumor and make it visible during a PET/CT scan. This information will help guide future research and treatment.
Phase 1 Study of Induced Blood-Stage Malaria in Healthy Malaria-Naive Adults to Assess the Safety and Infectivity of Plasmodium Vivax Challenge Agent and Evaluate Transmission in Mosquito Feeding Assays
To learn how malaria develops in people; how the body's immune system reacts to malaria; and how malaria spreads from people to mosquitoes.
An Open-Label Study of Zemaira (Alpha 1-Trypsin Inhibitor) in Subjects with Eosinophilic Esophagitis
Research Study #001854-I to explore the effects of Zemaira® for individuals with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). This study aims to understand how people with EoE feel while taking Zemaira® and whether it provides any benefits. By joining this research, you'll have the opportunity to contribute to medical advancements that could improve care for those with EoE. Every patient plays a key role in shaping future treatments and expanding knowledge about this condition.
