Case Control Study to Identify Modifiable Risk Factors for Colorectal and Breast Cancer in Nigeria
This project is a case-control study which seeks to identify modifiable risk factors for breast and colorectal cancer in Nigeria. Both cases and controls will be required to complete a risk factor questionnaire which contains information about their diet, physical activity, past medical history and life style factors. They will also be required to provide information on their body composition through the use of a bioimpedance machine which measures the body mass index, fat and total body water percentage. Based on the existing ARGO platform where a current colorectal cancer study is going on, approximately 400 patients with a prior...

CATCH: Implementation of Genomics-guided Precision Medicine in Metastatic Breast Cancer
CATCH is an indication-specific diagnostic platform, which drives the implementation of integrative, genomic profiling for metastatic breast cancer into the clinics. The main objective of this approach is to identify biomarkers and drug targets to guide targeted therapeutic interventions. Eligible are all metastatic breast cancer patients (independent of gender), irrespective of molecular subtype. At initial diagnosis of distant metastasis or progress at disease progression, biopsy samples from a prognostic-relevant metastasis are retrieved during standard-of-care procedures for central analyses, together with blood...

Cerebral Oxygenation in Preterm Neonates With Respiratory Support During Skin-to-skin Care on the First Day After Birth
This is a prospective observational pilot study investigating if skin-to-skin care (SSC) has an influence on cerebral oxygenation and perfusion measured with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) compared to incubator care in ventilated preterm neonates on the first day after birth.

Characteristics of Patients With Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa
Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) is a disease caused by genetic mutations in the gene for type VII collagen. Patients with RDEB develop large, severely painful blisters and open wounds from minor trauma to their skin. We are screening subjects with RDEB to evaluate characteristics of the subjects and their cells in order to develop new strategies of therapy and determine whether subjects could be candidates for treatment studies.

Characterization of Pre-Term Neonatal Skin
The skin of pre-term neonates is not fully developed and often leads to trans-epidermal water loss, trouble regulating temperature, and increased risk of skin wounds. Current treatment decisions are based on subjective, qualitative assessments of the skin. The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the utility of non-invasive optical spectroscopy methods to collect key biological information from neonatal skin, including skin maturity, blood oxygenation, and bilirubin content. Parents of pre-term neonatal subjects (n=44) will be recruited for consent to participate, and spectral measurements will be made with a diffuse ...

Chinese Psoriasis Real World Evidence Research
This research is a multicenter,observational study under real world settings in patients diagnosed as psoriasis by dermatologist in the clinic. As patient's choice of medication should be fully respected, all the patients can choose the treatments they prefer, like phototherapy, traditional systemic therapy or biologics. And the study was conducted to compare the effectiveness among different choices of medication in Chinese psoriasis patients.

Clinical and Biological Characteristics of Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a common and debilitating skin disease that is poorly understood and understudied. As a result, little is known about disease prognosis and few effective treatments exist for this condition. This prospective observational cohort study aims to comprehensively characterize the clinical and biological features of HS. The results of this research will provide a basis for the development of an HS clinical classification system and identification of potential treatments for HS.
