Filter by:Background: Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a rare immune disorder caused by a mutation in the CYBB gene. People with CGD have white blood cells that do not work properly. This places them at risk of developing infections that may be life-threatening. Stem cell transplant can cure CGD but transplanting stem cells donated by other people can have serious complications. In addition, not everyone has a matched donor. Another approach is a type of gene therapy that involves base-editing to correct the mutation in a person s own stem cells. Researchers want to know if the base-edited stem cells can improve the white cells' functioning and result in fewer CGD-related infections. Objective: To learn if base-edited stem cells will improve white blood cells' ability to fight against infections in people with CGD. Eligibility: Males aged 18 years and older with X-linked CGD. Design: This is a non-randomized study. Participants with the specific mutation under study will be screened during the initial phase. During the development phase, participants will undergo apheresis to collect stem cells for base-editing correction of the mutation. During the treatment phase, participants will receive the base-edited cells after chemotherapy with busulfan. Participants will remain in the hospital until their immunity recovers. Follow-up visits will continue for 15 years.
Surgical excision needs general anesthesia and might have complications due to anesthesia. Cryotherapy can be used in an outpatient setting and doesn't need general anesthesia. This study will evaluate if cryotherapy works in granuloma pyogenicum with the advancement of no general anesthesia.
Background: Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a rare immune disorder that can cause serious infections throughout the body. The only cure for CGD is a stem cell transplant. Transplants from a sibling are best, but many people must get transplants from unrelated donors. However, these transplants can cause serious complications in people with CGD. Objective: To see if a study drug (JSP191) can help improve the success rates of stem cell transplants for people with CGD from an unrelated donor. Eligibility: People aged 4 to 65 years with CGD who require a transplant. Design: Participants will be screened. Part of the screening will help to identify the best match to a transplant donor. Participants will have a physical exam, including dental and eye exams. They will have blood and urine tests. They will have tests of their breathing and heart function. A bone marrow sample will be taken. They will have their stem cells collected. Participants will have a catheter inserted into a vein in their chest. It will remain in place for the entire period of transplant and recovery. Participants will be in the hospital 40 to 50 days for the transplant. This will include a conditioning phase, to prepare their body for the procedure, as well as the transplant and recovery phases. As part of the conditioning phase, participants will receive JSP191 through a vein for 1 hour. After discharge, participants will have follow-up visits 2 times a week for 100 days. Additional follow-up visits will continue for 5 years....
Study AC-1101-GA-001 is an early phase open-label study with a 4-week treatment and 2-week follow-up period (without treatment) to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of AC-1101 gel in patients with Granuloma Annulare.
Gingival Pyogenic granuloma in the esthetic zone represents an esthetic problem. While surgical treatment may not give the premium esthetic demands, corticosteroid may acheive this balance.
Background: Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) affects the immune system. People with CGD are more likely to get infections. Drugs can help control infections, but these treatments can cause side effects including kidney failure and deafness. Stem cell transplants can cure CGD, but these don t always work. Objective: To find out if a different drug treatment can improve the success rates of stem cell transplants in people with CGD. Eligibility: People aged 4-65 years with CGD. Design: Participants will undergo screening. They will have a physical exam. They will have blood and urine tests and tests of their heart function and breathing. They will have imaging scans. They will have a bone marrow biopsy; a needle will be inserted into their hip to draw a sample of tissue from the bone. A tube called a catheter will be placed into a vein in the participant s chest. This catheter will remain in place for the transplant and recovery period. Blood for tests can be drawn from the catheter, and medications and the stem cells can be administered through it. Participants will be in the hospital for either 10 or 21 days to receive 3 or 4 drugs before the transplant. They will get 2 doses of total body radiation on the same day. Participants will receive donor stem cells through the catheter. They will remain in the hospital for 6 weeks afterward. Participants will visit the clinic 2 to 3 times per week for 3 months after discharge. Follow-up visits will continue for 5 years.
Background: Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) weakens the body's defense against germs. CGD can also damage the colon. It can cause inflammation (colitis) that disrupts the good bacteria. Placing good bacteria from donor stool into the intestine of a person with CGD (called fecal microbiota transplantation, or FMT) may help. Objective: To see if FMT can reduce inflammation in the colon. Eligibility: People aged 10-60 who have CGD and colitis, and the treatments they have tried are not helping or have side effects. Design: Participants will have a telehealth screening visit. They will have a medical record review and medical history. They will collect stool samples at home and mail them to NIH. Participants will stay at the NIH hospital for 3-5 days. Each day, they will have the following: Physical exam Medical history and medicine review Surveys about CGD and how it affects their life Blood, stool, and urine tests Participants will have a colonoscopy. They will be sedated. A long, flexible tube will be inserted into their rectum. The tube will deliver the FMT material to their colon. Small samples of intestinal tissue will be collected. Participants may have an optional MRI of the digestive tract. Participants will have 9 follow-up telehealth visits over 6 months. They will be asked about their symptoms and side effects. They will fill out short surveys. They will collect stool and urine samples at home. Up to 2 visits can be done in person. At these visits, they may have the option to have an MRI and another colonoscopy to get more tissue samples. Participation will last for 6-7 months.
This is a randomized, prospective, double-blind, controlled clinical trial designed to evaluate 3 distinct clinical approaches used during endodontic therapy: Group 1- Root canal treatment in single visit (RCT-SV); Group 2- Root canal treatment in two visits with intracanal dressing (RCT-TVWD); Group 3- Root canal treatment in two visits without intracanal dressing (RCT-TVWOD). A total of 210 adult patients ages 18 to 60 years, with at least one tooth diagnosed with asymptomatic apical periodontitis and periradicular lesion will be randomized and will undergo one of the types of clinical approaches during endodontic therapy. Patients' postoperative pain levels will also be recorded in periods of 24, 48, 72 hours and 7 days. Subsequently, clinical findings and long-term follow-up evaluations, with periradicular repair will be performed by periapical radiograph and computed tomography (cone-beam) at 6th, 12th and 24th months.
The aim of this prospective cohort observational study is: (i) to assess the endodontic treatment outcome in a private specialist endodontic office in Slovenia; (ii) to estimate the effect of various pre-, intra- and postoperative factors onto endodontic treatment outcome.
Background: CGD is caused by a gene mutation. For people with CGD, their cells cannot kill germs well, so they can get frequent or life-threatening infections. Researchers want to see if a new procedure can help a person s cells kill germs for a short time. It uses messenger RNA (mRNA) to deliver correct instructions for the gene mutation to the cells. Objective: To test a procedure in which mRNA is added to a person s blood cells. Eligibility: Males aged 18-75 with CGD with a mutation in the gene that makes the protein gp91phox. Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood and urine tests Swab to test for strep throat Some screening tests will be repeated during the study. Participants will be admitted to the NIH Clinical Center hospital for at least 7 days. They will have apheresis. For this, a medicine is injected under their skin to prepare their white blood cells for collection. An IV line is placed into an arm vein. Blood goes through the IV line into a machine that divides whole blood into red blood cells, plasma, and white blood cells. The white blood cells are removed, and the rest of the blood is returned to the participant through an IV line in their other arm. The next day, they will get their mRNA-corrected cells via IV. They will be monitored for 3 more days. After discharge, participants will keep a symptom diary. They will be contacted weekly for one month, and then once a month. They will have a follow-up visit 3 months after the infusion.
