This study is an open label, Comparative Effectiveness Research study in patients who receive a heart transplant. Subjects will be enrolled into the study while under evaluation for heart transplantation or on the transplant waiting list prior to heart transplantation. All subjects will follow the center's standard of care surveillance schedule from transplant through 4 weeks post-transplantation. The study objective is to compare the effectiveness of rejection surveillance of heart transplant recipients with Prospera dd-cfDNA to rejection surveillance with endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) in the first post-transplant year.
The Prospera™ test is a non-invasive test intended to detect and quantify the fraction of donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) to supplement management and surveillance of allograft rejection in patients who have undergone organ transplantation. The subjects may undergo blood draws, echocardiogrphys, medical history and physical exams, antibody testing, nuclear imaging, and MRI as apart of the study. The study period will be during the first 12 months post-transplant. Quality of life questionnaires will be completed at week 4, month 6 and month 12 post-transplant.

Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and solid organ transplantation (SOT) recipients are at high risk for respiratory viral infection (RVI). This study aims to establish a comprehensive RVI diagnostic and disease progression predictive model in children undergoing HCT and SOT. Findings will result in the first ever evidence-based pediatric guidelines.

This study will include all adult (18 years or older) patients who received a heart transplantation at MUSC. This study will conduct a chart review of all adult heart transplant participants to understand how different variables including, donor and recipient comorbidities, donor and recipient medical history, donor and recipient social determinants of health, recipient length of time on transplant waitlist, donor cause of death (morbidity), donor conditions when harvested, recipient presence of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) (temporary or permanent), recipient reason for transplant, recipient use of inotropes and/or vasopressors, recipient pre-transplant lab values, recipient pre-transplant ECHO, recipient pre-transplant right heart catheterization (RHC), donor lab and test values, other donor and recipient imaging studies, recipient surgical time and patient stay data, donor-recipient prediction heart mass (PHM) ratio, recipient medications, donor medications, post-transplant follow-up data, as well as other donor and/or recipient variables, will affect heart transplant outcomes.

This is a randomized study to test a smartphone app that a pharmacist will use to help kidney transplant patients track their medications, blood pressures, and blood sugars if they have diabetes. The goal of this study is to improve care and outcomes in kidney transplant patients and, in particular, help African American patients have better outcomes after transplant.

This study is for patients that have had hematopoietic stem cell transplants and/or have been donors. The purpose of this study is to see how well transplant works in adults with a MMUD using stem cells from a donor's blood, and in children with a MMUD using stem cells from a donor's bone marrow.This study treatment does not include any investigational drugs. The medicines and procedures in this study are standard for transplant. Participants can expect to be on this study for approximately 1 year.

The primary purpose of this registry is to evaluate the feasibility and clinical validation of LiverCare in liver transplant recipients, as part of post-transplant surveillance. LiverCare is an investigational panel test that includes 6 components: 1. AlloSure Liver 2. AlloMap Liver 3. AlloHeme Liver 4. iBox Liver 5. HistoMap Liver 6. AlloID. AlloSure Liver is a research test used to measure donor-derived cell free DNA in Liver transplant recipients. AlloMap Liver is a research gene expression profile test using peripheral blood to establish immune activity and is currently undergoing clinical evaluation and development. iBox Liver is an analytic platform that predicts organ outcomes after transplant using a software algorithm based on information from your medical records and is currently undergoing clinical evaluation and development. AlloHeme Liver is a diagnostic test to measure donor and recipient DNA in the blood. HistoMap Liver is a tissue-based gene expression test using tissue collected from standard of care biopsies to establish immune profiles within the organ and is currently undergoing clinical evaluation and development. AlloID is a blood test that will quantify the presence of more than 100 pathogens including standard post-transplant infectious disease screening such as Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), adenovirus, Human Herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) and viral hepatitis.

Islet transplantation is a clinical procedure to treat patients with chronic pancreatitis after removal of their pancreases. Islet survival is influenced by several factors, including but not limited to triggering an inflammatory response. The loss of islet cells during transplantation can cause surgical diabetes, in which the patient will need insulin injections to regulate their blood sugar. The goal of this study is to test whether co-transplantation of the patient's stem cells, called mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), along with their islet cells, will protect transplanted islet cells from death, therefore reducing the patient's chances of getting surgical diabetes. MSCs can modulate immune cells and are a promising resource for cell-based therapy.

This study is for subjects that are about to receive high dose cyclophosphamide before a blood or bone marrow transplant (BMT). The investigational drug in this study is Olanzapine.This research is being done to find out whether adding olanzapine to standard antiemetics will be helpful in controlling CINV in children receiving chemotherapy a blood or bone marrow transplant. To find this out, some of the participants in this study will get olanzapine and others will receive a placebo (a substance that looks like olanzapine but does not have any active or medicinal ingredients). This will allow us to compare treatment of CINV with and without olanzapine.

This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with multisystem Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH). The purpose of this study is to find out if prolonging the treatment and adding a drug called 6-mercaptopurine will be beneficial. Other goals include fining out if these changes will result in fewer patients having relapse of their LCH, and fewer patients having long term disease related problems. Participants can expect to be in this study for up to 24 months and will be followed on this study fir at least 5 years.

The purpose of the study is to generate a bio bank of specimens for research. We will tissue that would otherwise be discarded from clinical or surgical procedure and information from medical records. We will also collect discarded blood, urines and sputum. Collecting samples will help to better understanding the mechanisms of cardiovascular diseases, identify biomarkers for early diagnosis and to predict safety and efficacy of new therapies.
