Summary

Cannabis is the most commonly used illicit substance among pregnant and postpartum women, with the postpartum period being a common time for relapse to cannabis. Currently there are no interventions for preventing return to cannabis use during this vulnerable time. The goal of this research is to better understand risk factors such as stress, craving, anxiety, mood, sleep, and hormone levels that may contribute to return to cannabis use during the postpartum period in order to help develop targeted prevention and treatment interventions in the future.

Summary

Adults (ages 18+) who would like to reduce their cannabis use (N=224) will be enrolled in an 8-week treatment program. All participants will receive counseling (1 goals session with a therapist followed by 7 weekly computerized cognitive-behavioral therapy sessions). Detailed cannabis assessments (biological and self-report) will be conducted throughout treatment and at 1-, 2-, and 3-months post-treatment completion. Daily electronic diaries will be administered via text message to record detailed logs of cannabis use quantity and frequency. Salivary samples will be collected (and video observed) daily throughout treatment to analyze for progesterone.

PARALLEL PHASE III RANDOMIZED TRIALS FOR HIGH RISK PROSTATE CANCER EVALUATING DE-INTENSIFICATION FOR LOWER GENOMIC RISK AND INTENSIFICATION OF CONCURRENT THERAPY FOR HIGHER GENOMIC RISK WITH RADIATION (PREDICT-RT*)

Date Added

PRO Number
Pro00108846
Researcher
David Marshall

List of Studies


Keywords
Cancer/Genitourinary, Hormones, Men's Health, Prostate
Summary

This study is for men who have high-risk prostate cancer who plan to be treated with a combination of radiation and hormonal therapy. A tumor genomic analysis (Decipher score) will be used to divide the subjects into two groups. Those with a low genomic risk score will be randomized to either standard treatment with radiation and 24 months of hormonal therapy or to radiation with a shorter, 12 month, course of hormone therapy. Those with a higher genomic risk score or who have lymph node involvement will be randomized to standard treatment with radiation and 24 months of standard hormonal therapy or radiation with 24 months of intensified hormonal therapy.
