• Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study (MACS)

  The Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study (MACS) - now part of the MACS-WIHS Combined Cohort Study (MWCCS) investigates the epidemiology of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection among men who have sex with men. Over 7,000 participants volunteered for semiannual interview, physical examination, and laboratory testing across the 325 years of the study, in four metropolitan areas of Los Angeles, Chicago, Baltimore/Washington (DC) and Pittsburgh. The study aimed to identify risk factors for occurrence and clinical expression of the HIV infection, and to establish a repository of biologic specimens for future study. Study visits included detailed questions covering HIV-related symptoms and utilization of health services, demographic and psychosocial characteristics, a quality of life survey, a physical examination, a detailed form on medications used as prophylaxis and/or treatment, a neuropsychological screening and examination, blood samples to do measure hematologic variables including enumeration of T-cell subsets and HIV viral load and evaluate genetic risk factors via genome wide association studies using data generated using the Infinium Multi-Ethnic Global BeadChip genotyping array in all participants. Men who have sex with men, with and without HIV infection were enrolled in the MACS. MACS data continues to be available through the merged MWCCS cohort.

  This is a study of transcriptomics in HPV-associated oropharynx tumors. The goals of this study were to characterize HPV+ oropharynx tumor subtypes and to examine HPV integration events and their downstream effects. HPV-host fusion transcripts and recurrent HPV integration genes were identified. Various alternative isoforms and splicing events of HPV genes were also studied. Multiple potential biomarkers of prognosis were associated with clinical outcomes.

• Ipilimumab and Decitabine in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Myelodysplastic Syndrome or Acute Myeloid Leukemia

  The NCI Experimental Therapeutics Clinical Trials Network (ETCTN)/Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (CTEP) 10026 study (NCT02890329) tested combined ipilimumab and decitabine treatment in two cohorts: Arm A consisted of patients with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Arm B consisted of patients with advanced myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or AML that did not previously undergo stem cell transplantation. During the study, peripheral blood and bone marrow samples were obtained from study participants at study entry (screening), following the first lead-in cycle of decitabine monotherapy, during combined treatment with decitabine and ipilimumab, and at the end of treatment.This study tested the combination of the CTLA-4 blocking antibody ipilimumab and the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor decitabine in advanced myeloid disease in the transplant-naive and post-transplant context. The samples were used for bulk and single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) as well as whole exome sequencing (WES).

• Autopsy-Confirmed Parkinson Disease GWAS Consortium (APDGC)

  The APDGC was formed to conduct a genome-wide association study in individuals with neuropathologically confirmed Parkinson Disease (PD) and neuropathologically normal controls. The rationale for the study is that including only cases and controls with neuropathologically confirmed disease status will reduce diagnostic misclassification and increase power to detect novel genetic associations.

• Hydroxyurea to Prevent Organ Damage in Children with Sickle Cell Anemia (BABY HUG) Phase III Clinical Trial and Follow-Up Observational Studies I and II

  Sickle cell anemia is associated with substantial morbidity from acute complications and organ dysfunction beginning in the first year of life. In 1995, the Multicenter Study of Hydroxyurea (MSH) (dbGaP phs002348) demonstrated that, in adults, hydroxyurea is effective in decreasing the frequency of painful crises, hospitalizations for crises, acute chest syndrome, and blood transfusions by 50%. The phase I/II study of hydroxyurea in children (HUG KIDS) demonstrated that children have a response to hydroxyurea similar to that seen in adults in terms of increasing fetal hemoglobin levels and total hemoglobin, and decreasing complications associated with sickle cell anemia. In addition, this study demonstrated that the drug does not adversely affect growth and development between the ages of 5 and 15. A pilot study of hydroxyurea (HUSOFT) given to children between the ages of 6 months and 24 months demonstrated that the drug was well tolerated and that the fetal hemoglobin levels rose and remained elevated compared to baseline with continued hydroxyurea administration. A Special Emphasis Panel (SEP) met on April 12, 1996 to review the results of the MSH trial and the progress to date of the HUG KIDS study. The SEP recommended that NHLBI undertake the BABY HUG trial. The BABY HUG Randomized Controlled Trial concluded that hydroxyurea treatment in very young children seemed to have an acceptable safety profile and to reduce complications of sickle cell anemia. However, more data were needed on the long-term safety of hydroxyurea use in very young children. As a result, follow-up studies were initiated. The Follow-Up Study II provided longer follow-up than Follow-Up Study I, and included more assessment types than Follow-Up Study I.The BABY HUG program consisted of three related studies, each of which has associated datasets and bio-specimens. A randomized controlled trial comparing hydroxyurea to placebo in very young children with sickle cell anemia (BABY HUG Randomized Controlled Trial) The first observational follow-up study of children from the randomized controlled trial (BABY HUG Follow-Up Study I). All children in Follow-Up Study I were offered the option of taking open-label hydroxyurea, with treatment decisions made by the family and the clinical team caring for the child. The second observational follow-up study of children from BABY HUG Follow-Up Study I. All children in Follow-Up Study II were offered the option of taking open-label hydroxyurea, with treatment decisions made by the family and the clinical team caring for the child.The purpose of the Randomized Controlled Trial was to determine if hydroxyurea can safely prevent early end organ damage in very young children with sickle cell anemia. The purpose of the BABY HUG Follow-up Study I was to provide structured follow-up of the children enrolled in the BABY HUG Randomized Controlled Trial, in order to characterize the long-term toxicities and unexpected risks (if any) associated with treatment with hydroxyurea at an early age. The objective of Follow-Up Study II was to obtain additional data about the long-term safety and efficacy of hydroxyurea use in children with Sickle Cell Anemia through at least the first decade of life.Instructions for requesting individual-level data are available on BioData Catalyst at https://biodatacatalyst.nhlbi.nih.gov/resources/data/.
