The Fabry Registry is an ongoing, international multi-center, strictly observational program that tracks the routine clinical outcomes for patients with Fabry disease, irrespective of treatment status. No experimental intervention is involved; patients in the Registry undergo clinical assessments and receive care as determined by the patient's treating physician. The primary objectives of the Registry are: - To enhance the understanding of the variability, progression, and natural history of Fabry disease, including heterozygous females with the disease; - To assist the Fabry medical community with the development of recommendations for monitoring patients and reports on patient outcomes to help optimize patient care; - To characterize and describe the Fabry population as a whole; - To evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of Fabrazyme® Fabry Pregnancy Sub-registry: This Sub-registry is a multicenter, international, longitudinal, observational, and voluntary program designed to track pregnancy outcomes for any pregnant woman enrolled in the Fabry Registry, regardless of whether she is receiving disease-specific therapy (such as enzyme replacement therapy with agalsidase beta) and irrespective of the commercial product with which she may be treated. Data from the Sub-registry are also used to fulfill various global regulatory requirements, to support product development/reimbursement, and for other research and non-research-related purposes. No experimental intervention is given; thus a patient will undergo clinical assessments and receive standard of care treatment as determined by the patient's physician. If a patient consents to this Sub-registry, information about the patient's medical and obstetric history, pregnancy, and birth will be collected, and, if a patient consents to data collection for her infant, data on infant growth through month 36 postpartum will be collected.

This clinical trial studies how well an educationally enhanced genomic tumor board (EGTB) intervention works to increase the number of patients with solid tumors that have come back (recurrent), do not respond to treatment (refractory), have spread to other parts of the body (metastatic), or are newly diagnosed and spread to other parts of the body (advanced) who receive genome-informed treatment. Genome-informed treatment refers to treatment based on the information found in genomic tumor test results. This study compares the usual approach to reviewing genomic tumor test results with the approach of having a genomic tumor board (GTB) review the test results. A GTB is team of doctors and scientists that have experience in understanding genomic changes and review genomic tumor test results. The tumor board helps to suggest whether there are other cancer treatment options based on patient genetic test results. The usual approach is to review genomic tumor test results without the GTB being involved. This study may help researchers learn if using a GTB enhances the treatment decision making process within 6 months of joining the study. This study may also help researchers learn if using the GTB increases doctors' understanding of genomic tumor test results and increases doctors' comfort level with genomic tumor tests.

Over 64 million people in the U.S. have a permanent disability, with mobility-related disability (MRD) representing the most prevalent disability type (13.7%). Adults with MRD are 66% more likely to be overweight or obese than their non-disabled peers. Exercise in adults with MRD is important for weight management and is associated with improvements in obesity-related health conditions including hypertension, hyperlipidemia, insulin processing/sensitivity, etc. However, over half (57%) of adults with MRD do not exercise, while 22% engage in exercise of insufficient duration or intensity to obtain health benefits. Adults with MRD face numerous barriers to participation in community-based exercise, and exercise is frequently limited to short-term referrals for outpatient physical and/or occupational therapy. High-intensity functional training (HIFT) represents a potentially effective strategy for community-based exercise to support body weight and obesity-related health conditions, in addition to improving physical function and aspects of psychosocial health for people with disabilities. Preliminary evidence supports the effectiveness of HIFT to improve body composition, cardiovascular and muscular fitness, insulin processing and insulin sensitivity in non-disabled adults who are overweight/obese. To date, no study has systematically evaluated the feasibility or effectiveness of a community-based HIFT intervention for improving obesity-related health outcomes in overweight/obese adults with MRD. Thus, the proposed study will implement a 6-mo. pilot trial to evaluate the feasibility and potential effectiveness of a HIFT intervention (60 min sessions/3 days/wk.) in 25 adults with MRD and overweight/obesity. This study will address the following aims: Aim 1: Evaluate the intervention feasibility based on participant recruitment, session attendance, retention, outcome assessment completion, and the results of semi-structured exit interviews to obtain information regarding experience and overall satisfaction with the intervention. Aim 2: Evaluate changes (baseline - 6 mos.) in weight and fat-mass/fat-free mass, and components of the metabolic syndrome (waist circumference, blood pressure, HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, fasting glucose).

The current proposal is structured as a pilot trial to evaluate the impact of non-ablative SBRT (800 cGy X 3 fractions) as an immunomodulatory mechanism in patients with early stage NSCLC who are surgical candidates. Tumor, normal tissue and blood specimens will be analyzed for immunomodulatory changes including phenotypic changes in tumor cell surface marker expression, tumor and normal tissue microenvironment and gene expression profiles, serum/blood immune profile changes, and circulating tumor cell immunophenotypic and gene expression alterations. Published literature showed that cytotoxic doses of XRT may not elicit a clinically meaningful alteration in the immune profile. Further, studies using an animal model have concluded a fractionated regimen induces a greater abscopal effect than single dose radiation. Furthermore, research has shown a regimen of 800 cGy X 3 fractions yielded the most significant changes in the immune profile compared to 2000 cGy X 1 or 600 cGy X 5. The immune response within the tumor milieu is a complex dynamic process with an interplay among lymphocyte subsets, antigen presenting cells/dendritic cells, macrophages, and tumor cells. The interactions between the various components is orchestrated by a variety of extracellular and intracellular signaling pathways involving ligand and cell surface expression, cytokine release, and activation or inhibition of a variety of T cell subsets. In order to comprehensively define the immunomodulatory effect of three fractions of 800 cGy on the primary tumor, the investigators will analyze the following: tumor cell surface phenotype, tumor microenvironment immune profile and gene expression profile, T cell repertoire changes in tumor tissue and peripheral blood, and circulating tumor cell phenotype and gene expression profiles. Each of these components has been shown to be impacted by radiation in either a cell culture or animal model systems. By characterizing, quantitating and defining these changes related to three fractions of 800 cGy, it will directly provide important insights to inform rational uses of XRT and immunotherapy in the future.
