This is a multicenter, Phase Ib, open-label, siplizumab dose-finding study in individuals aged 8-45 years with a Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) diagnosis. within 18 months of V0. Participants will be randomized 1:1:1:1 to one of four possible siplizumab dosing arms. All dosing arms will receive weekly siplizumab doses for a total of 12 weeks. After the completion of treatment, participants will undergo follow-up visits at weeks 12, 24, 36 and 52 which include longitudinal MMTTs. If indicated, participants will enter into long-term safety monitoring for up to an additional 48 weeks. Blood samples for mechanistic analyses will be obtained during the treatment phase and thereafter. Adults aged 18- 45 will be enrolled initially at the study sites. The primary objective is to identify a safe, metabolically favorable, dosing regimen for siplizumab in patients with type 1 diabetes that induces changes in T cell phenotypes observed with alefacept therapy in new-onset T1DM. The secondary objectives are to: 1. Assess the safety profile of siplizumab in recently diagnosed T1DM. 2. Assess the effects of siplizumab on residual beta cell function in recently diagnosed T1DM participants.

This is a 24-month, observational study of 50 participants with Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD)

This is a parallel arm, Phase 3, double-blind, double-dummy, active-comparator, 2 arm study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of daily oral venglustat versus intravenous Cerezyme infusions every two weeks for improvement or stabilization of the neurological manifestations and maintenance of systemic disease stability in participants aged ≥12 and <18 years and adult patients with Gaucher disease Type 3 (GD3) who have been treated with Enzyme Replacement Therapy (ERT) for at least 3 years.

This phase III trial compares hematopoietic (stem) cell transplantation (HCT) using mismatched related donors (haploidentical [haplo]) versus matched unrelated donors (MUD) in treating children, adolescents, and young adults with acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). HCT is considered standard of care treatment for patients with high-risk acute leukemia and MDS. In HCT, patients are given very high doses of chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy, which is intended to kill cancer cells that may be resistant to more standard doses of chemotherapy; unfortunately, this also destroys the normal cells in the bone marrow, including stem cells. After the treatment, patients must have a healthy supply of stem cells reintroduced or transplanted. The transplanted cells then reestablish the blood cell production process in the bone marrow. The healthy stem cells may come from the blood or bone marrow of a related or unrelated donor. If patients do not have a matched related donor, doctors do not know what the next best donor choice is. This trial may help researchers understand whether a haplo related donor or a MUD HCT for children with acute leukemia or MDS is better or if there is no difference at all.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 131I-MIBG in combination with Vorinostat in patients with Recurrent or Progressive neuroblastoma

The primary objective of this study is to assess the long-term safety of vatiquinone in participants with Friedreich ataxia (FA) previously exposed to vatiquinone.

The overall goal of the study is to establish valid clinical endpoint assessments for children with congenital myotonic dystrophy type 1 and childhood myotonic dystrophy type 1, and develop biomarkers for the condition.

The LYNX study is a 2-part, multicenter, Phase 2 study of safety, pharmacokinetics and biomarkers in children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy including a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled part A, followed by an open-label part B.
