NCT ID: NCT04862130 Completed - Oncology Clinical Trials

Validation of the GMFM-88 Scale and of the FAAP-O Scale in Pediatric Patients Affected by Cancer

FAAP-O
Start date: November 14, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The primary objective of this study is to validate the Gross Motor Function Measure Scale-88 (GMFM-88) on the Italian pediatric cancer population. The secondary objective is to implement the use of the GMFM-88 in clinical practice by validating a reduced panel of items that will be called the Functional Ability Assessment in Pediatric Oncology (FAAP-O) Scale.

NCT ID: NCT04822220 Completed - Fatigue Clinical Trials

The Effect of Self-Management Program Based on the Individual and Family Self-management Theory on Cancer Patients

Start date: November 15, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Self-Management Program based on the Individual and Family Self-management Theory on fatigue, daily living activities and well-being of cancer patients.

NCT ID: NCT04821466 Completed - Oncology Clinical Trials

VR for Symptom Control and Wellbeing

Start date: June 14, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

To investigate the effect that a Virtual Reality experience can have on patient symptoms and wellbeing for palliative care and oncology inpatients

NCT ID: NCT04816656 Completed - Covid19 Clinical Trials

An Integrated Digital PROM-platform for Cancer Patients During the COVID-19 Pandemic

COVID-ONCO
Start date: August 3, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

During the COVID-19 pandemic, patients with cancer are subject to multiple risks (e.g. frequent hospital visits, increased infection risk, more severe clinical course, discontinued cancer treatment etc.). Patients undergoing cancer therapy are also faced with several Quality of Life - impairing side effects. In the case of a positive COVID-19 cancer patient, the need and intensity of treating must be weighed against the possible higher risk of developing severe complications in the course of a COVID-19 infection. Nevertheless, both for COVID-19 positive and negative patients who will continue or discontinue cancer treatment throughout the pandemic, providing supportive care is more important than ever. Digitally monitoring patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) could offer a solution to improve the supportive care measures during cancer treatment, and certainly in times of COVID-19. Digitalized PROMS could significantly contribute to improved communication, patient satisfaction, supportive care, monitoring of cancer treatment, and detection of problems. To date, clinical trials investigating the benefits of digital PROMS in patients with cancer during the current COVID-19 pandemic are lacking. At the Jessa Hospital, the investigators already have experience in collecting PROMs via a digital platform (Awell Health) since 2019 for patients with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy using validated QoL questionnaires. The overall aim of this project is to prospectively evaluate the impact of a COVID-19 infection on the severity of the cancer therapy-related complications and the QoL of patients with cancer undergoing chemotherapy using a digital PROMs-platform.

NCT ID: NCT04741503 Completed - Oncology Clinical Trials

Project Insight: Feasibility of a Breast Cancer Screening Decision Support Tool

Start date: April 19, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this investigation is to conduct a feasibility study to evaluate the potential for implementing the developed decision support tool with Latina, Black, and non-Latina White women. The investigators will collect feasibility data and assess the use of the decision support tool with end-users. The aim is to determine if women using the decision support tool make more informed choices measured by knowledge, attitudes, and intentions.

NCT ID: NCT04727827 Completed - Oncology Clinical Trials

Pharmacogenomic-Guided Supportive Care in Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

IMPPACT
Start date: February 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is the only curative treatment modality for many hematologic malignancies. Morbidity and mortality rates have declined drastically over the years, secondary to improvements in both transplant techniques and pharmacotherapies, including immunosuppressants, anti-infectives, analgesics and other supportive care medications. Despite advances in patient care, toxicities associated with HCT (e.g., graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), infection, pain, anxiety, depression, mucositis, nausea/vomiting) continue to pose challenges in patient care and have a significant impact on quality of life. (QOL). A recent study demonstrated subjects randomized to intensive supportive care had a clinically significant improvement in their QOL during hospitalization and up to 3 months post-transplant compared to those receiving standard care. Further follow up evaluations have evaluated the impact of focused palliative care/symptom management on QOL metrics - inclusive of Edmonton Symptom Assessment surveys (ESAS). In other malignant settings, i.e. solid tumor, ESAS has been noted as an effective measure of symptoms control and the utilization of this assessment is linked to positive outcomes. The American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) has designated QOL as the second most relevant metric for post-transplant patient care behind survival, making the optimization of supportive care pharmacotherapy a clinically relevant subject to investigate. Pharmacogenetics (PGx) uses an individual's genetic factors, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), to personalize therapy or dose selection. SNPs encode drug-metabolizing enzymes, transporters, and targets that can significantly impact drug efficacy and toxicity. With the growing complexity of both antineoplastics and supportive care, oncologists have less time to manage each subject's myriad of supportive care concerns by trial and error. Suboptimal management of symptoms compromises potential benefits from cancer therapy, disrupts clinic workflow, increases emergency room visits, and affects both patient satisfaction and reimbursement. Genetic variation is well documented across the human genome and affects a subject's response to medications regarding efficacy and toxicity. The genome is quickly becoming a pragmatic tool that can assist oncologists and other providers in optimizing supportive care for subjects with cancer.
