Tracking outcomes during non-heart procedures in children with heart defects
This study looks at how children with congenital heart disease do during routine non-heart procedures, including medical or minor treatments that are not heart-related. It also measures how much health care they use afterward, which may help improve care planning for families.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Up to 21 years - NCT04528082RecruitingPhase 3
Apremilast for children with frequent mouth ulcers from Behçet’s disease
This study tests apremilast to help reduce active, recurring mouth (oral) ulcers in children with Behçet’s disease. It may help if your child has had repeated mouth ulcers despite at least one non-biologic treatment.
BronAges 2–17 - NCT04570423RecruitingPhase 2
Eflapegrastim safety study for children and teens on chemo
This trial studies how safe eflapegrastim is in pediatric patients with certain solid tumors or lymphomas who are starting chemotherapy that lowers white blood cells. It also looks at how the medicine behaves in the body to help reduce the risk of dangerous infections.
Valhalla, New YorkAges 1 month–17 years - NCT04544592RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CD19 CAR-T for children and young adults with B-cell blood cancers
This trial tests a one-time, lab-made immune cell treatment (CD19 CAR-T) for certain B-cell blood cancers in children and young adults. It may help people whose leukemia or lymphoma is not responding to standard treatment or has come back.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 1 month–30 years - NCT04575883Recruiting
Bike interval training for teens with repaired heart defects
This study tests a structured “interval” bike exercise program to see if it’s safe and helpful for teens with certain repaired congenital heart conditions. It may help improve fitness while closely monitoring heart symptoms during training.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 10–18 - NCT04573140RecruitingPhase 1
RNA vaccine study for newly diagnosed adult and pediatric brain tumors
This Phase 1 trial studies an “RNA-lipid particle” vaccine given after surgery for certain newly diagnosed brain cancers (glioblastoma in adults, high-grade glioma in children/teens). The goal is to see whether the vaccine is safe and can train the immune system to fight the tumor.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 4 years+ - NCT04485559RecruitingPhase 1
Trametinib and everolimus for recurrent gliomas
This trial tests two drugs, trametinib and everolimus, for children and young adults with recurrent or progressive gliomas (a type of brain tumor). The goal is to see if this drug combination is safe and effective in treating these tumors.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1–25 - NCT04423484Recruiting
Treatment plan study for newly diagnosed one kidney tumor
This trial looks at what treatment recommendations work best for children with a nephroblastoma (Wilms tumor) that is in only one kidney and has not been treated yet. It may help doctors choose the best next steps for care while the child’s overall health supports treatment.
OuagadougouAges 6 months–18 years - NCT04425434Recruiting
Treatment plan study for children with retinoblastoma
This trial looks at care recommendations for children with retinoblastoma (a childhood eye cancer). It may help standardize the best treatment approach for different patterns of tumor spread.
OuagadougouAges Up to 18 years - NCT04425421Recruiting
Treatment plan for children with Burkitt lymphoma
This trial uses a recommended treatment approach for children who have Burkitt lymphoma, a specific type of blood cancer. It may help by guiding care when the full standard treatment schedule can’t be followed for every child.
