Research Study 000444-H investigating how well the following vaccines work in patients with CLL/SLL malignancies: SHINGRIX and influenza vaccine. If you are currently receiving treatment for your CLL/SLL (e.g. ibrutinib, acalabrutinib or venetoclax), you may be able to participate.

Researchers want to see if they can measure the amount of anti-cancer drug, Abemaciclib in a brain tumor and brain fluid after a patient has taken this drug for a few days. These findings can help explain how much drug gets into the brain and how drugs work to shrink high grade gliomas to improve outcomes for these patients.

Researchers at the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) are seeking healthy children between 2-17 years old to participate in a research study to better understand the immune system of patients with mitochondrial disease in comparison to their healthy peers.

Pharmacologic therapy with Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors is associated with an increased risk of heart problems like atrial fibrillation, bleeding, and high blood pressure (hypertension) which can lead to sudden death. There is currently no standard for cardiac screening or monitoring patients on BTK inhibitors. Researchers at the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) are investigating the relationship between the development of heart problems in patients on BTKi as it relates to other variables.
