Cell free DNA

This study is testing whether a donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) test can accurately detect rejection in kidney transplant recipients. Researchers will compare the test results to standard biopsy findings in 125 adults who are at least 12 days post-transplant. If the test w…

This study collects blood samples from 400 kidney transplant patients who need a biopsy. Researchers will use the samples to develop a non-invasive test that measures donor DNA in the blood to check the health of the transplanted kidney. The goal is to replace invasive biopsies w…

This study looks at whether cardiac MRI and blood tests can detect acute rejection in children and young adults who have had a heart transplant. Currently, doctors often use invasive heart biopsies to check for rejection, which can be uncomfortable and risky. The goal is to see i…

This study looks at how pesticides and the bacteria in your gut and genital tract might be linked to endometriosis and infertility. Researchers will compare 160 women with and without endometriosis to find patterns in their DNA and bacteria. The goal is to better understand the d…

This study looks at whether testing for HPV DNA from a cervical swab or a blood sample can help find cervical cancer that has come back after radiotherapy. Researchers will follow 120 patients for two years after treatment, collecting samples at regular visits. The goal is to see…
