This study tests whether the drug lusutrombopag can help restore platelet levels faster in patients who have had a stem cell transplant for blood disorders. About 45 adults will receive the drug after transplant, and doctors will check platelet counts at 21 days. The goal is to i…

This study tests a new medicine called INM004 in 220 children with hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) caused by E. coli bacteria. The goal is to see if it helps the kidneys recover faster and reduces the need for dialysis. Participants are children aged 9 months to 18 years who have…

This study is for adults with blood disorders who are getting a stem cell transplant from a matched donor. Researchers want to see if giving a special potato starch along with a drug that lowers iron (deferasirox) can help prevent serious complications like graft-versus-host dise…

This study is testing a new blood test (the HMEC test) to see if it can better identify which patients with thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) have a specific immune system problem driving their disease. TMA is a severe condition that damages kidneys and the brain. The researchers …

This study collects blood stem cells and immune cells from healthy volunteers and patients with primary immune deficiencies or blood disorders. The cells are used in the lab to develop new gene and cell therapies. Up to 850 adults aged 18-70 will participate. The goal is to advan…

This study collects blood, bone marrow, urine, and tissue samples from up to 6,000 people with solid tumors, blood cancers, or non-cancerous blood disorders, as well as from their healthy family members who are stem cell donors. The samples are stored and used in research to bett…

This study looks for better ways to detect lung inflammation and infections early in people who have received a stem cell transplant from a donor. About 40 participants aged 5 to 70 will get regular lung scans, breathing tests, blood draws, and a procedure where a tube collects f…

This study collects blood, urine, bone marrow, and tumor samples from people with hairy cell leukemia and other blood cancers, as well as from healthy volunteers. Researchers will use these samples to study the diseases and develop new treatments called immunotoxins, which use an…

This study is a large registry that collects health information from up to 200,000 people with blood disorders such as hemophilia, thrombosis, and sickle cell disease. Participants are seen at Hemophilia Treatment Centers across the U.S. The goal is to gather real-world data to h…

This study reviews medical records of 200 people diagnosed with a rare blood and kidney disease called aHUS in Egyptian hospitals. Researchers want to learn about patient symptoms, treatments, and long-term health to help doctors diagnose and manage the disease better. No new tre…

This study follows 75 pregnant women who have taken Ultomiris (ravulizumab) for conditions like PNH or aHUS. Researchers will track pregnancy outcomes and baby health up to one year after birth. The goal is to gather safety information, not to test a new treatment.

This study aims to improve diagnosis for people with rare genetic diseases whose standard genetic tests came back negative. Researchers will take a small skin sample and analyze RNA to find hidden genetic changes. The study involves 105 participants, including healthy volunteers …

This study looks at how gut bacteria and the immune system interact in children and adults receiving stem cell transplants or CAR-T therapy. Researchers will collect stool and blood samples over time to find patterns linked to complications like infections or graft-versus-host di…

This study follows 102 women who had fertility preservation before cancer treatment to see what happens long-term. Researchers want to know if they get pregnant naturally, use stored eggs or tissue, or decide not to have children. The goal is to improve support and care for femal…

This study is collecting long-term safety and effectiveness data on treatments for various blood disorders, including hemophilia, sickle cell disease, and clotting disorders. It aims to enroll 3000 people of any age with these conditions. Researchers will monitor side effects, co…

This study is creating a collection of blood samples from 2,000 people with various blood disorders. The samples will be stored and used for future research approved by an ethics board. No treatments or drugs are being tested, and participants continue their normal care.

This study looks at families who carry a change in the DDX41 gene, which may raise the risk of blood cancers like leukemia. Researchers will collect health questionnaires and saliva samples from up to 910 people to track who develops blood problems and when. The goal is to better…

This study looks at using a needle placed into the bone marrow (intraosseous infusion) to give fluids and medicines quickly to critically ill patients with blood diseases. Researchers will enroll 52 adults aged 18-65 to see how often the first attempt works and how safe it is. Th…

This study is a registry that tracks patients with blood diseases who receive stem cell transplants at a hospital on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Researchers will collect information on recovery, complications, and costs over time. The goal is to understand how high altitude affect…
