AHEP1531: Pediatric Hepatic Malignancy International Therapeutic Trial (PHITT)

This partially randomized phase II/III trial studies how well cisplatin and combination chemotherapy works in treating children and young adults with hepatoblastoma or liver cancer after surgery. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, doxorubicin, fluorouracil, vincristine sulfate, carboplatin, etoposide, irinotecan, sorafenib, gemcitabine and oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving combination chemotherapy after surgery may kill more tumor cells.

Therapeutic Writing to Reduce Stress and Improve Perinatal Outcomes

The investigators hypothesize that exposure to chronic environmental stress is a risk factor for adverse pregnancy outcomes related to preterm birth and preeclampsia among high-risk pregnant women. Additionally, the investigators hypothesize that women can be screened for high levels of environmental stress through the perceived stress scale, and therapeutic writing can be used as a low-resource intervention to help decrease maternal perceived stress and inflammation - measured through analysis of maternal serum and placental samples.

TAK-609 PTA Program

Hunter Syndrome or Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II) is a rare genetic disorder caused by decreased levels of a specific enzyme, iduronate-2-sulfatase. Lack of this enzyme causes buildup of large sugar molecules called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). The build up of GAGs causes significant damage to the body and brain. Idursulfase-IT, an enzyme replacement therapy, was developed for the treatment of patients with Hunter Syndrome with cognitive impairment to help with the central nervous system manifestations of the disease. The purpose of this post-trial access program is so that patients with Hunter syndrome who previously received monthly administration of idursulfase-IT through participation in an earlier clinical research study can continue to receive it.

Mechanism of Macrophage and Fibroblast Activation in SSc

The purpose of this study is to understand the ways in which systemic sclerosis (SSc) develops and identify potential treatments. Because this study focuses on the interaction between macrophages and fibroblasts, both peripheral blood and skin will be necessary for completion of this work. Results from this work will provide the rational basis for the development of novel treatments for SSc patients.

Human Trafficking and Corrections: Environmental Scan

Our UNC-CH School of Social Work (SSW) team is collaborating with the North Carolina Department of Public Safety (NCDPS) to develop human trafficking identification and response protocols for North Carolina correctional settings. To inform the development of such protocols, we are conducting an environmental scan to determine how correctional settings (prisons and jails) across the United States are currently identifying and responding to victims of human trafficking.
