Filter by:The purpose of this study is to validate Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) on amniotic fluid to reduce the time to diagnosis and enhance the care for the fetus/neonate.
To assess efficacy and safety of intense pulsed light (IPL) activation of silver nanoparticles (SNA) versus IPL alone for treatment of keratosis pilaris.
This is a placebo-controlled clinical trial to assess whether Guanfacine Extended Release (GXR) reduces aggression and self injurious behavior in individuals with Prader Willi Syndrome (PWS). In addition, the study will establish the safety of GXR with a specific focus on metabolic effects.
This study is a two periods multi-center Phase II trial, with a 6 months double-blind, placebo-controlled period followed by open label period, to assess the efficacy and safety of alpelisib (BYL719) in pediatric and adult patients with Megalencephaly-CApillary malformation Polymicrogyria syndrome (MCAP)
This validation study aims to develop a standardised investigator global assessment (IGA) score for keratosis pilaris and test the validity and reliability of the score through a one-day scoring exercise held at a private practice and compare it to a standard 0-4 IGA score specifically defined for keratosis pilaris.
This study aims to transform the current clinical practice paradigm by leveraging an internally designed web-based model of delivery of care called Consultagene to provide remote evaluation and genomic sequencing for improving genetic health of less resourced children with rare disorders living along the Texas-Mexico border.
Babies born to mothers with pregestational diabetes will be screened with parental consent for sacral agenesis
Keratosis pilaris (KP) is a common disorder of keratinization. There are different treatment modalities for KP with variable results. Nd:YAG laser and chemical peels are among these treatment modalities, however, there is no enough evidence in the literature regarding their efficacy. The aim of this study is to assess and compare the efficacy of long pulsed Nd:YAG laser and trichloreacetic acid 20% in treatment of keratosis pilaris.
Animal models of Kabuki syndrome have showed a reversal of the cognitive phenotype with ketogenic diet. Modified Atkins diet is safer and easier tolerated than full ketogenic diet and still has the histone deacetylase inhibition believed to be responsible for the cognitive improvement. This study aims to examine a small number of adults with Kabuki syndrome before and after 12 weeks on a modified Atkins diet to determine if there is any cognitive improvement and if the diet can be tolerated.
Starting from isolating primary cells from affected patients, an in vitro disease model system for KS will be developed. Using alternative strategies to obtain patient-derived mesenchymal stem cells, an integrative approach will be adopted for defining both the transcriptional and epigenetic regulatory networks perturbed upon the loss of function of KMT2D. Combining the self-renewal potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with CRISPR/Cas9 technology, an epigenome editing approach as therapeutic strategy to rescue the activity of MLL4 will be developed. A step forward is expected towards the understanding of those the molecular mechanisms governing the aetiology of Kabuki Syndrome (KS) and that the proposed in vitro disease model will provide to the scientific community an experimental system to study the KS. Importantly, the aim is to define the molecular bases of KS and to develop a therapeutic strategy that could ameliorate some of the abnormalities associated with KS.
