This randomized clinical phase III trial studies how well web-based physical activity intervention works in improving long term health in children and adolescents with cancer. Regular physical activity after receiving treatment for cancer may help to maintain a healthy weight and improve energy levels and overall health.

The main aim of the study is to determine if SHP611 given by injection into the spinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord (intrathecal; IT) prolongs the time for children with Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD) to retain the ability to move from place to place. Other aims of the study are to determine the effects of intrathecal administration of SHP611 on movement and speech functions and to learn how well SHP611 injected in the spinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord is tolerated.

Study participants will receive SHP611 for about 2 years with the possibility of an extended treatment period.

This phase III trial studies how well active surveillance help doctors to monitor subjects with low risk germ cell tumors for recurrence after their tumor is removed. When the germ cell tumor has spread outside of the organ in which it developed, it is considered metastatic. Chemotherapy drugs, such as bleomycin, carboplatin, etoposide, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. The trial studies whether carboplatin or cisplatin is the preferred chemotherapy to use in treating metastatic standard risk germ cell tumors.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether accelerated BEP chemotherapy is more effective than standard BEP chemotherapy in males with intermediate and poor-risk metastatic germ cell tumours.

This partially randomized phase II/III trial studies how well, in combination with surgery, cisplatin and combination chemotherapy works in treating children and young adults with hepatoblastoma or hepatocellular carcinoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, doxorubicin, fluorouracil, vincristine sulfate, carboplatin, etoposide, irinotecan, sorafenib, gemcitabine and oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving combination chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells than one type of chemotherapy alone.

This phase III trial studies how well response and biology-based risk factor-guided therapy works in treating younger patients with non-high risk neuroblastoma. Sometimes a tumor may not need treatment until it progresses. In this case, observation may be sufficient. Measuring biomarkers in tumor cells may help plan when effective treatment is necessary and what the best treatment is. Response and biology-based risk factor-guided therapy may be effective in treating patients with non-high risk neuroblastoma and may help to avoid some of the risks and side effects related to standard treatment.

This phase II trial studies how well naive T-cell depletion works in preventing chronic graft-versus-host disease in children and young adults with blood cancers undergoing donor stem cell transplant. Sometimes the transplanted white blood cells from a donor attack the body's normal tissues (called graft versus host disease). Removing a particular type of T cell (naive T cells) from the donor cells before the transplant may stop this from happening.

This phase II Pediatric MATCH screening and multi-sub-trial studies how well treatment that is directed by genetic testing works in pediatric patients with solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphomas, or histiocytic disorders that have progressed following at least one line of standard systemic therapy and/or for which no standard treatment exists that has been shown to prolong survival. Genetic tests look at the unique genetic material (genes) of patients' tumor cells. Patients with genetic changes or abnormalities (mutations) may benefit more from treatment which targets their tumor's particular genetic mutation, and may help doctors plan better treatment for patients with solid tumors or non-Hodgkin lymphomas.

A study to determine the long-term safety and tolerability of oral lucerastat in adult subjects with Fabry disease. This study includes a sub-study evaluating kidney Gb3 inclusions (and other histologic lesions) in male participants with classic Fabry disease who have been treated for at least 2 years with lucerastat monotherapy in study ID-069A302.

In this study, researchers are learning more about RTA 408, also known as omaveloxolone, BIIB141, or SKYCLARYS®. The main goal of this study is to learn more about the safety of RTA 408 and how it affects physical effort, movement, coordination, and how participants feel in daily life.

The main questions researchers want to answer in this study are:

* How much physical effort can a participant produce during a cycling test after 12 weeks of treatment?
* How do scores on the modified Friedreich's Ataxia Rating Scale (mFARS) change after 48 weeks?

Researchers will use the modified Friedreich's Ataxia Rating Scale (mFARS) to measure how FA affects the nervous system. The mFARS looks at movement ability, balance, coordination, speech, and how well the arms and legs work.

They will also use a cycling test to measure physical effort, along with questionnaires to learn how participants feel and function in daily life.

Safety will also be tested using physical exams, vital sign checks, echocardiograms (ECHO), electrocardiograms (ECG), and blood and urine tests.

The study will be done in 2 main parts, followed by an optional Extension period:

* In Part 1, participants will be randomly assigned to take different doses of RTA 408 or a placebo by mouth once a day for 12 weeks. A placebo looks like the study drug but contains no real medicine.
* Researchers will compare these doses to decide which one to use in Part 2.
* In Part 2, a different group of participants will take either the chosen dose of RTA 408 (150 mg) or placebo once a day for 48 weeks.
* Participants who complete Part 1 or Part 2 may be able to join an Extension period, where everyone receives RTA 408.
* In the Extension period, participants will continue to receive RTA 408 until the drug becomes commercially available or until they leave the study
* Participants in Part 1 will have up to 9 study visits and 2 phone calls. If they do not move onto the Extension period, they will stay in the study for up to 20 weeks.
* Participants in Part 2 will have up to 10 study visits and 3 phone calls. If they do not move onto the Extension period, they will stay in the study for up to 61 weeks.
* Participants in the Extension period will have 2 visits in the first month, followed by visits every 6 months.
