Summary

This observational, multi-center cohort study of pediatric cardiac arrest management will contribute to a clinical CPR Learning Laboratory. The objectives of this study are to characterize the quality of CPR and post-cardiac arrest care delivered to children across a broad spectrum of hospitals, to determine the association between quantitative CPR quality measures (depth, rate, compression release, flow fraction) and survival to hospital discharge, and to determine the association of survival with site-specific post-cardiac arrest care (PCAC). The study will enroll pediatric cardiac arrests requiring chest compressions for ≥1 minute identified as part of standard clinical operations. The CPR quantitative measures, defibrillator data (when available), monitor data (when available), and post-arrest care will be de-identified and submitted to a central database.

A Phase II Study of Metronomic and Targeted Anti-Angiogenesis Therapy for Children With Recurrent/Progressive Medulloblastoma

Keywords

Summary

This study is for patients with recurrent/progressive medulloblastoma, which is a type of childhood brain tumor. Participants in this study will receive intravenous (IV, into the veins) bevacizumab and intrathecal (into the spinal fluid) or intraventricular (into the fluid surrounding the brain) etoposide and cytarabine in combination with five oral (taken by mouth) chemotherapy drugs as a possible treatment for recurrent/progressive medulloblastoma. Total study duration is about 1 year and depending on how well a participant tolerates the medications and the response of the disease, the patient may continue the treatment after the first year.

A Phase 2b, Multicenter, Randomized, Open-label, Two-Arm Study to Evaluate the Clinical Efficacy and Safety of OHB-607 Compared to Standard Neonatal Care for the Prevention of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia, the Most Common Cause of Chronic Lung Disease of Prematurity

Summary

Babies that are born extremely prematurely are at higher risk of developing chronic (long term) lung disease (CLD) and other complications (problems). The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of an investigational drug called mecasermin rinfabate (rhIGF-1/rhIGTBP-3) or OHB-607. The researchers want to find out if OHB-607 can help reduce the risk of chronic lung disease in babies born prematurely and if it can help reduce the risk of other complications.

A multicenter safety study of unlicensed, investigational cryopreserved cord blood units (CBUs) manufactured by the National Cord Blood Program (NCBP) and provided for unrelated hematopoietic stem cell transplantation of pediatric and adult patients

Summary

This study if for patients that have a blood disease and it's been determined that the best option for treating that blood disease is a cord blood transplant. Cord blood (CB) is blood that is taken from the umbilical cord and placenta of healthy newborn babies after childbirth. The cord blood collected from a newborn baby is called a cord blood unit. The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers cord blood to be a biological drug. These are considered "investigational" products. This study will evaluate the safety of administration of the investigational cord blood units by carefully documenting all infusion-related problems.

Summary

The primary purposes of this study are to:
•Provide access to cord blood units for recipients whose best choice for a cord blood unit(s) do not meet all FDA standards, but do meet standards set by the NMDP on this study.
•Assess how well and how quickly blood counts return to normal after transplant in recipients on this study.
