The purpose of this study is to learn things that will help us better understand alcohol dependence, other kinds of substance dependence, and aspects of personality and behavior in African Americans. DNA, the material that carries genetic instructions, will be taken from blood, and used to study genes for these …
Our study aims to determine whether genetic testing should be recommended for young adults with cancer. This type of testing can show if your cancer may be caused by inherited risk. This information can help guide effective screening and treatment for cancer in young adults and their families. This is …
This is a pivotal phase 3 study designed to support an indication for the reduction of cardiovascular risk in patients with established CVD and elevated Lp(a)
The purpose of this study is to characterize gene mutations associated Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia (CCCA). The Penn Medicine BioBank (PMBB) supports researchers by providing centralized access to a large number of annotated blood and tissue samples. Clinician identified patients with CCCA and appropriate controls will be recruited from the …
Subjects with unusual lipids in subjects with known or suspected genetic variants that may be associated with change in lipoprotein kinetics will have two-night, one-day inpatient stay in CHPS, during which they will undergo extensive evaluation of lipoprotein kinetics using stable isotope techniques, OFTT, and OGTT. Subjects will complete a …
This is a prospective, multicenter observational study to identify clinical, genetic and imaging predictors of clinical outcome in patients with suspected non-compaction cardiomyopathy Many healthy people have increased trabeculations without consequences, however, some may develop blood clots, heart rhythm disorders or heart failure later in life. Currently we cannot predict …
The purpose of this study is to study how a new investigational drug called lucerastat works in research subjects. Taking part in a research study is different from getting regular medical care. The aim of regular care is to improve your health. The aim of a research study is to …
The research study is being conducted to better understand factors that lead to gastric (stomach) cancer, including differences in our genes that may put some people at increased risk of developing gastric cancer compared to other people. Both people with increased risk as well as people with average risk of …
Multi-center, open-label, first in human (FIH) Phase 1 study of the safety, tolerability, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of the administration of genetically modified autologous T cells (CART-TnMUC1 cells) engineered to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) capable of recognizing the tumor antigen, TnMUC1 and activating the T cell (CARTTnMUC1 cells). …
