The Caris Biorepository is collecting quality biospecimens, which can be any material that comes from human tissue, to bank for the purposes of future research studies related to advancing precision medicine and improving patient care. Select biospecimens may be collected from consenting individuals who have, or do not have cancer, are being screened for, or have an increased risk for a certain type of cancer. Samples may be used for research on: cells that make up your body (DNA and RNA) and how those cells and other cells work in healthy people and people with illness; how biomarkers might be able to predict the best treatments for a particular tumor type or blood finding; biomarker testing to discover and refine new technology; or, new discoveries and new biomarkers that can predict disease.

Quantitative survey of certain substances of abuse in the adolescent and young adult population of SC. Survey study will be focused on substances of abuse that are easily accessible at a gas station due to little to no regulations or excessive amounts available in various forms such as Kratom, 7-OH, Tia, nicotine pouches, THC, etc.
This study is testing whether adding a new drug, casdatifan, to cabozantinib works better than cabozantinib alone in adults with advanced kidney cancer (clear cell renal cell carcinoma) that has gotten worse after previous immunotherapy. It will compare the two treatments in patients around the world to see which is more effective. A total of 8 patients will be enrolled locally over the course of 26 months, and participants may be in the study for up to five years. Before joining, patients will complete a screening process with tests and assessments to determine eligibility. If eligible, participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: casdatifan plus cabozantinib or placebo plus cabozantinib. There is a 2 in 3 chance of being in the casdatifan group and a 1 in 3 chance of being in the placebo group. Both drugs are taken by mouth in pill form each day. During the study, patients will have assessments such as blood tests, imaging scans, heart monitoring, physical exams, biopsies, questionnaires, and a drug diary. Participants will visit the study site two times each 28-day cycle for the first two cycles, then once per cycle thereafter. The most important risks include low blood counts, low oxygen levels, fatigue, gastrointestinal problems, skin reactions, high blood pressure, weight loss, voice changes, and bleeding.
This is a Phase 3, open-label, follow-up study to evaluate the long-term safety,
tolerability, and efficacy of sotatercept when added to background PAH therapy for the treatment of PAH. Participants enrolled in this study are from the following parent studies: PULSAR, SPECTRA, STELLAR, HYPERION, and ZENITH. Participants eligible to enroll in this study will have participated in and completed the requirements of the MK-7962-004 study (Amendment 07 or later). In this study, participants will receive open-label sotatercept . The duration of participation for each participant will vary based on their enrollment date, but it is anticipated to be up to 3 years.
This observational, multi-country cohort study examines the long-term safety of Filsuvez in real-world clinical practice. Researchers will collect both primary data and use existing patient registry data to gather information on Filsuvez exposure, skin malignancies, medical history, and other clinical characteristics. The study will include patients with confirmed diagnoses of DEB and JEB, regardless of whether they use Filsuvez, as long as they meet the approved indication. Patients previously exposed to Filsuvez through clinical trials, early access programs, or compassionate use programs may also participate. The study does not require any protocol-mandated visits or procedures, and the frequency of patient visits will follow local standard practice and individual patient needs.
This study will recruit 2,634 participants,50 years of age or older, who have sustained a primary fragility fracture of the hip, femur, pelvis, clinical spine, humerus, or wrist in the last 12 months. Participants will be recruited from approximately 20 sites around the United States. Patients will be randomized to either continue treatment with "Augmented Fracture Liaison Service" or to continue with "Enhanced Usual Care." Both pathways incorporate patient education about the high risk of future fractures and available treatment approaches for fracture risk reduction. Patient education materials, in English or Spanish, will include information about fractures, bone health and osteoporosis, and will refer participants to resources to provide additional education on ways to reduce the risk of another fracture. Both arms of the study will be mailed education materials after enrollment. Study participation will consist of surveys over the course of 2 years, and a visit to a bone health specialist.
This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with diagnosed with unresectable, locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The study is testing investigational drugs called pumitamig."Investigational" means it has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability, and to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), of pumitamig administered in combination with ipilimumab or cabozantinib. The study drug is given by infusion. Participants in this study can expect to be in this study for about 4 years.
