Hypopigmentation of the skin

This study looks at whether taking coenzyme Q10 and vitamin C, alone or together, can improve healing and reduce dark gum color after surgical gum depigmentation. The trial involves 20 healthy adults with dark gums who undergo a simple scalpel procedure to remove pigmented tissue…

This study tests whether combining two drugs—regorafenib (a targeted therapy) and envafolimab (an immunotherapy)—can help people with advanced GIST that has a specific gene change (KIT exon 17 mutation) and has stopped responding to standard treatments. About 100 adults will be r…

This early-phase trial tests a single injection of JWK010 gene therapy in 18 children aged 5 to 12 with oculocutaneous albinism type 1 (OCA1). OCA1 is caused by a gene change that prevents the body from making pigment, leading to vision problems and light sensitivity. The therapy…

This study tracks 50 children and adults with non-malignant disorders like immune deficiencies and anemias who receive a stem cell transplant after a reduced-intensity chemotherapy regimen. The goal is to see if this approach improves survival and reduces severe graft-versus-host…

This study is testing a less intense chemotherapy and radiation regimen before a stem cell transplant for children and young adults up to age 55 with non-cancerous blood disorders like immune deficiencies, anemias, and metabolic diseases. The goal is to see if this gentler prepar…

This early-stage trial tests a new drug called NN3201 in people with advanced cancers that have a specific marker called c-Kit. The drug is designed to deliver a chemotherapy agent directly to cancer cells, potentially killing them while sparing healthy tissue. The study will enr…

This study is testing a software tool called Belle.ai that uses artificial intelligence to help doctors diagnose common skin diseases. About 400 patients at dermatology clinics will have three photos taken of their skin condition. The AI will analyze the photos and suggest possib…

This study tests a group counseling program called Healing HEARTS to help people with conditions like obesity, skin disease, cancer, HIV, diabetes, or chronic pain deal with internalized stigma. Participants will either join the counseling program or a peer support group. The goa…

This study aims to learn more about Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome (HPS), a rare inherited disease that causes light skin/eye color, bleeding problems, and often deadly lung scarring. Researchers will follow 600 people with HPS and their family members to track how the disease progres…

This study aims to collect DNA samples and detailed eye exam data from 1,000 people with rare inherited eye diseases like aniridia, Best disease, and albinism. Participants provide a saliva or blood sample and share their eye health records. The goal is to expand a research repos…

This study aims to learn more about Chediak-Higashi syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that causes light skin and hair, easy bruising, and frequent infections. Researchers will observe up to 60 patients over time, collecting clinical and genetic data to better understand the disea…

This study collects biological samples—like blood, skin biopsies, and swabs—from people with or at risk for skin diseases, as well as healthy volunteers. Researchers will use these samples to study the causes of skin conditions and explore potential treatments. Up to 700 particip…

This study aims to find the genetic causes behind certain allergic and immune system disorders. Researchers will collect blood, saliva, and tissue samples from up to 10,000 people of all ages, along with some family members. No treatments are given; the goal is simply to learn mo…

This study tests two different diameters (1.6mm and 2mm) of mini-implants placed in the upper jaw to support orthodontic tooth movement. Twenty people receiving braces will get one size on each side of their mouth. Researchers will measure how stable the implants are, how much pa…

This study looks at how skin conditions related to cancer or cancer treatments affect the well-being of cancer patients and survivors. About 1,025 participants will fill out questionnaires about their skin condition. The goal is to better understand these effects and improve trea…

This study investigates whether serotonin, a chemical in the body, affects symptoms of oculocutaneous albinism in children. Researchers will measure serotonin levels in 160 children with and without albinism. The goal is to better understand the condition, not to test a new treat…
