All genders
Observational
What is the purpose of this study?PREVENT ALL ALS is a prospective, observational cohort study enrolling individuals at risk for carrying inherited genetic variants known to be causative for ALS. This is a longitudinal observational study involving collection of clinical data, outcomes andbiofluid samples. There is also an optional sub-study for genetic testing results.THIS STUDY IS ENROLLING BY INVITATION ONLY - PREVENT ALL ALS Study: Enrolls individuals from genetic ALS families who are either known carriers for ALS causative genes or who have not had prior genetic testing. Participants in PREVENT ALL ALS may be invited to enroll in the optional sub-study at any time after their initial PREVENT ALL ALS screening visit.

Pregnancy Data Repository to Assess Management of Type 1 Diabetes with Diabetes Technology (PRAM-T1D)

C
Christina M. Scifres, MD
18 years - 100 years
All genders
Observational
What is the purpose of this study?The study is being done because we want to learn more about how people with type 1 diabetes in the United States manage their diabetes during pregnancy. We will enroll pregnant individuals with type 1 diabetes to participate in the PRAM-T1D registry, which will collect information on glucose levels, insulin treatment, and how this relates to pregnancy outcomes. The goal of this study is to learn things that may help people with type 1 diabetes who are pregnant in the future. We hope that this study will help us learn more about what makes living with diabetes during pregnancy easier.   THIS STUDY IS ENROLLING BY INVITATION ONLY - We will refer pregnant individuals with type 1 diabetes to participate in the PRAM-T1D registry, which will collect information on glucose levels, insulin treatment, and how this relates to pregnancy outcomes; this will involve providing information about PRAM-T1D and directing patients to the PRAM-T1D website where they can enroll themselves. IU investigators will have IU patients who are enrolled in PRAM-T1D and selected for specified data outcomes sign an authorization that will allow us to send medical records information to the main study team at Jaeb.

Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative 2.0 Remote Study

30 years - 100 years
All genders
What is the purpose of this study?The purpose of PPMI 2.0 Remote is to find out if information collected remotely (by internet, mail, home visits, or phone applications) can help identify individuals at an increased risk of developing Parkinson’s Disease.  Identifying at-risk individuals may also help researchers learn how to better develop and test new interventions intended to delay or prevent disease progression in the early stages of PD.  To accomplish this, the specific aims of the study are: a)Establish a comprehensive recruitment strategy targeting individuals likely to be at increased risk of PD. b)Develop a risk paradigm to determine criteria for study participants to be selected for dopamine transporter single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging c)Refine the risk paradigm based on accruing data collected in PPMI initiatives combined with imaging, clinical, and biomarker information collected in the PPMI Clinical study. THIS STUDY IS ENROLLING BY INVITATION ONLY - Subjects will be identified through a number of mechanisms. Initially subjects are recruited through targeted outreach for increased risk for PD by the Michael J. Fox Foundation (sponsor) as well as PPMI clinical sites. These individuals are pushed to WRD (IRB 1703921430), where subjects will be identified as those who have completed genetic screening through the existing WRD study or reported other risk factors for PD, such as a family history of PD. These individuals will be invited to enroll in the PPMI Remote Data Collection study by WRD study staff or through website communication and/or email.
