6 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
In this research study investigators want to learn more about capillary malformations which are also known as port wine stains. Investigators are asking children with capillary malformations (port wine stains) to be in the research, because investigators do not have a good idea of what to expect from the current treatments of these malformations. These malformations are treated with laser as clinically indicated and there are no standardized methods to assess improvement.
The purpose of this research is to use an approved drug(Visudyne) for neovascular age-related macular degeneration, which is essentially choroidal neovascularization for permeability and vascular proliferation for the retinal circulation, to treat another permeable abnormality - retinal capillary abnormalities - located eccentric to the central portion of the macula or in the foveal region.
This is a 3-part Phase 2 randomized study evaluating the safety and efficacy of the mutant-selective PI3Kα inhibitor, RLY-2608, in adults and children with PIK3CA Related Overgrowth Spectrum (PROS) and malformations driven by PIK3CA mutation. Part 1 is a dose selection, Part 2 is a basket design with exploratory single-arm cohorts for various subpopulations of participants, and Part 3 is randomized, double-blinded study vs placebo.
Background: RASopathies are a group of conditions caused by a genetic change. People with a RASopathy may have developmental issues, cognitive disability, poor growth, and birth defects. They may also have an increased risk for developing cancer. Researchers want to learn more. Objective: To learn more about RASopathies, how genes and environmental factors contribute to cancer development in people with RASopathies, and the best way to find these cancers and other conditions early or prevent them. Eligibility: People of any age who have or may have a RASopathy, and their family members. Design: Participants will complete questionnaires about their personal and family medical history. Their medical records will be reviewed. Participants will give blood and urine samples. They will give a saliva or cheek cell sample. Some samples will be used for genetic testing. Participants may have a skin biopsy. Participants may have a physical exam by the RASopathies study team. They may also have exams by additional specialists, such as dentists; urologists; ear, nose, and throat doctors; and neurologists. Participants may have computed tomography of the face and mouth. They may have an ultrasound of the abdomen. They may have a bone density scan. They may have skeletal and/or spine x-rays. They may have magnetic resonance imaging of the brain, low back, chest, and/or heart. They may be photographed. Participants may have other tests, such as sleep, brain and heart electrical activity, speech and swallow, metabolism, hearing, eye, and colon function tests. Participants may sign separate consent forms for some tests. Participation will last indefinitely. Participants may be contacted once in a while by phone or mail. They may have follow-up visits.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of sirolimus in the treatment of children and young adults with complicated vascular anomalies will prove to be safe and provide objective response resulting in improved clinical status and quality of life.

This study is being conducted to satisfy a post-marketing requirement (PMR) to provide evidence characterizing 1) the safety of moxetumomab pasudotox-tdfk in patients who are 65 years of age and older and/or 2) the safety of moxetumomab pasudotox-tdfk in patients who have moderate renal impairment defined as an estimated GFR of 30-59 ml/min
