Collection of Blood and Bone Marrow from Normal Volunteers and Patients for Research Purposes Clinical Trials Data presented on Clinical Trials Search isn't meant to be a substitute for qualified health advice, calls or treatment using a genuine doctor. We are not docs. Always consult your dr. on Collection of Blood and Bone Marrow from Normal Volunteers and Patients for Research Purposes conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a site dedicated to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. Collection of Blood and Bone Marrow from Normal Volunteers and Patients for Research Purposes Clinical research trials and Collection of Blood and Bone Marrow from Normal Volunteers and Patients for Research Purposes healthcare trials occur in a lot of of places throughout the United States. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials generally assess the potency of new drugs. The intent of the studies / undertakings is to figure out certain human medical questions. Clinical trials are a popular means for mDs, government agencies, and private sector corporations to locate remedies for all kinds of circumstances, including Collection of Blood and Bone Marrow from Normal Volunteers and Patients for Research Purposes. Collection of Blood and Bone Marrow from Normal Volunteers and Patients for Research Purposes Clinical Trials and other clinical trials allow volunteers to obtain health treatment alternatives before they are available to the masses. Many times the participants undergo treatment for free, and sometimes they are paid for their time. Occasionally there is a cost for a Collection of Blood and Bone Marrow from Normal Volunteers and Patients for Research Purposes clinical trial. Participants typically obtain the most effective healthcare available for their Collection of Blood and Bone Marrow from Normal Volunteers and Patients for Research Purposes condition. Dangers are a reality, nonetheless, and can include extra or frequent mD trips, medical hazards (potentially life-endangering), and/or the treatment being uneffective. Trials are federally regulated with rigid guidelines to protect clinical trials patients.

Collection of Blood and Bone Marrow from Normal Volunteers and Patients for Research Purposes
For Condition: Aplastic Anemia,Fanconi's Anemia,Healthy,Hematologic Disease,Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Status: Recruiting
Sponsor(s): National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) ,
Synopsis: This study is designed to provide bone marrow and/or blood cells for other research studies. Patients participating in this study will be asked to provide small amounts of medical information and undergo a limited physical examination designed to detect the presence of any obvious blood disease. A blood and bone marrow sample will be obtained to verify that the patient has normal blood cell production. Researchers plan to obtain bone marrow samples to be used in laboratory studies directed toward understanding the formation of blood cells. Bone marrow samples will be taken from the hip bone of patients and normal volunteers. These samples are valuable to many research studies within the Hematology Branch of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, including studies of normal and abnormal production of blood cells, the viral causes of blood diseases, and the role of the immune system in bone marrow failure and related conditions.
Details: This protocol defines in general terms the purposes for which blood and bone marrow specimens will be collected by members of the Hematology Branch and the conditions under which the sampling will be performed. Samples of blood and bone marrow from normal volunteers and from patients are indispensable for many research projects, including studies of normal and abnormal hematopoiesis, the viral etiology of blood diseases, and the role of the immune system in marrow failure and related conditions.
Eligibility:
Study Type: Observational, Natural History
Minimum Age/Maximum Age: /
Genders: Both
Protocol Entry Criteria: INCLUSION CRITERIA: Normal volunteers age greater than or equal to 18 years. Subjects with hematologic disease age greater than or equal to 2 (for subjects less than 18, blood and bone marrow specimens will be obtained concurrently with clinically indicated sampling). EXCLUSION CRITERIA: History of a significant bleeding disorder. Abnormal host-defense mechanisms.
