Summary

This study is for patients that have been diagnosed with relapsed/refractory neuroblastoma. The investigational drug given is eflornithine (DFMO) along with etoposide. DFMO is the investigational drug being used along with etoposide for treatment of neuroblastoma. Participants will undergo a number of standard tests and research-related procedures before being able to enroll in this study. Some risks include but are not limited to: fewer red and white blood cells, diarrhea, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, skin rash, seizure, difficulty swallowing and blurred vision. Participants can expect to be on this study for approximately 2 years. Participants will then be followed for up to 5 years after study completion.

Anticoagulation for New-Onset Post-Operative Atrial Fibrillation after CABG (PACeS)

Date Added

Researcher

List of Studies

Keywords
Heart, Surgery
Summary

There are two classes of drugs for preventing blood clots in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), an irregular heartbeat, after cardiac surgery: antiplatelet drugs (like aspirin) and anticoagulants (blood thinners). This study aims to determine whether the addition of blood thinners to antiplatelet drugs will improve treatment outcomes in patients who develop AF after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery.

In this study, you will be randomized (assigned to a group by chance--like flipping a coin) into one of 2 study groups; the assignment to receive the antiplatelet drug alone or the antiplatelet drug plus a blood thinner.

Before discharge from the hospital, you will undergo an electrocardiogram (ECG), which examines the electrical activity of your heart. At 1 and 2 months after randomization, you will receive a phone call from the study staff. At 3 months after randomization, you will return to the institution where you received your surgery for an in-person visit. At 6 months, you will receive a phone call from the study staff. Your total participation will be about 6 months.

Neoadjuvant Screening Trial: LCMC4 Evaluation of Actionable Drivers in Early Stage Lung Cancer

List of Studies

Keywords

Summary

This collaborative study was developed by the Lung Cancer Mutation Consortium (LCMC) and supported by the Thoracic Surgery Oncology Group (TSOG). The purpose of this study is to determine if it is possible to identify genetic changes in the tumors or blood of patients with early-stage lung cancers using both blood-based and tumor-based testing when cancer is suspected or first diagnosed. In this trial, participants will be asked to provide blood samples at three different time points. They will also be asked for permission for tumor tissue to be sent to the researchers. Tumor tissue will be collected if there is a leftover sample from a participant's surgery. These samples will be sent to the researchers to be analyzed for genetic changes. The researchers hope that in the future, genetic changes can help doctors determine what the best treatment is for patients with early-stage lung cancer.

Summary

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the continuous use of negative pressure dressings for up to 14 days has similar benefits and risks to the continuous use for up to 7 days. The 3M study product being used in this study includes the PREVENA Plus Incision Management System with PREVENA Dressings (Peel & Place, Customizable and ARTHRO●FORM). The study product is considered investigational because it has not been approved by the FDA for continuous use for up to 14 days. It is currently approved for use for up to 7 days.

Summary

This study is for subjects that have been diagnosed with prostate cancer, and their doctor has recommended external beam radiation therapy. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the side effects of a shorter course of radiation called stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR). The expected duration of the study is up to 28 months including one to four months prior to radiation therapy for treatment preparation, two weeks during radiation therapy, and 24 months after radiation therapy.

A Stepped Wedge Cluster Randomized Trial Comparing a Navigation-Based Multilevel Intervention With Treatment as Usual to Improve Initiation of Timely Postoperative Radiation Therapy in Adults with Locally Advanced Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (The ENDURE Trial)

Summary

For patients with head and neck cancer, delays starting adjuvant radiation therapy are common, disproportionately burden racial minorities, and contribute to poor survival and racial disparities in mortality. However, effective therapies to improve the delivery of timely, equitable, guideline-adherent adjuvant radiation therapy are lacking. We have developed a navigation-based multilevel intervention to enhance care coordination, communication, and key cancer care delivery processes that could provide the first effective treatment in this population, thereby improving survival, decreasing racial disparities in outcomes, and developing new standards of clinical care.
