Filter by:Children with acute and chronic illness undergo frequent, painful, and distressing procedures. This randomized control trial was used to evaluate the effectiveness of guided imagery (GI) vs virtual reality (VR) on the procedural pain and state anxiety of children and young adults undergoing un-sedated procedures. We explored the role of trait anxiety and pain catastrophizing in intervention response.
A Phase 1, Open-Label, Dose Escalation, and Cohort Expansion Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics (PK) and Clinical Activity of DT2216, an Antiapoptotic Protein Targeted Degradation Compound, in Subjects with Relapsed or Refractory Malignancies
A two sited feasibility study to test the feasibility of systematic symptom identification with disease specific and clinically developed PROM (Lee Symptom Scale) longitudinally with a 12 month follow up in outpatient care in patients post HSCT to assess symptoms of chronic GVHD (n= 30).
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an emerging infectious disease that was first reported in December 2019 in Wuhan, China. Infection with this new coronavirus called SARS-CoV-2 can lead to fatal pneumonia associated with high rates of hospitalization in intensive care units (ICU). Hospitalized patients with hematologic malignancies have a higher mortality rate than patients without hematologic malignancies (62% vs. 8%). The severity of Covid-19 may be related to their treatment, in particular anti-CD20 used in B lymphoid hemopathies. In fact, anti-CD20 antibodies induce rapid and prolonged depletion of B cells, but they are necessary for development. humoral immune responses. But currently, no immunogenicity data are known for patients with hemopathy or in those on anti-lymphocyte immunochemotherapy.
Background: COVID-19 is a viral infection. It has spread rapidly across the globe. It has overwhelmed health systems. Researchers are concerned that it may undo years of progress in the reduction of cancer-specific death. They want to test a vaccine that might protect people with cancer from COVID-19. Objective: To test the safety and efficacy of a vaccine using mRNA-1273 that may protect people with cancer from COVID-19. Eligibility: Adults ages 18 and older who have a solid tumor or blood cancer and who may benefit from a vaccine that might prepare their immune system for fighting and preventing infection from COVID-19. Patients with solid tumors must be receiving treatment with an immunotherapy agent Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, medicine review, and physical exam. They will have blood tests. They will have a pregnancy test if needed. Participants will get 2 doses of the mRNA-1273 vaccine if they have not been vaccinated already. It will be injected into a muscle in the arm on Days 1 and 29. They will be followed for 12 months after the second dose. Participants will have study visits at the Clinical Center on Days 1, 29, 36,57, 209, and 394. Some visits will last about 4-6 hours. Patients will be able to get up to 3 doses of mRNA-1273 as a booster on trial if they have already completed a primary series of a vaccine. Participants who have already received a booster dose of vaccine will be able to enroll to receive additional boosters. It will be injected into a muscle in the arm on Day 1. Participants will be followed for 12 months after their last booster injection. Participants who receive booster doses will have study visits at the Clinical Center on Days 1, 29, 57, 180 and 360. Participants will give blood and saliva samples for research. Participation will last about 16 months.
Fatigue is a major problem for cancer patients, and one that can persist long after treatment ends. Recent work has demonstrated that light therapy may mitigate or reduce fatigue levels in both cancer patients and cancer survivors. This protocol seeks to assess how lighting interventions distributed through a mobile app affect fatigue, sleep, and quality of life across three populations of cancer patients: breast cancer and prostate cancer, and patients who have undergone autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Participants will be randomized 1:1 to either the interventional SYNC app or to a control app.
To investigate the effect that a Virtual Reality experience can have on patient symptoms and wellbeing for palliative care and oncology inpatients
This retrospective observational cohort study aims to describe the impact of COVID-19 in patients treated with autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for malignant disease in terms of risk factors, morbidity, need for supportive care and mortality. All patients treated with ASCT in Sweden from 1st January 2020 until 31st December 2020 are eligible for this study. Patients who also has tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 from start of conditioning or later will be identified through the national registry of the Public Health Agency of Sweden and a systematic analysis of their medical records will be performed.
The aim is to study the effect of a systematic approach to symptom identification and management with disease specific and clinically developed PRO (HM-PRO) with a 12 month follow up in outpatient care in patients with chronic hematological malignancy.
Physical activity levels of adult hematologic cancer patients are deficient. The resulting physical inactivity causes fatigue, muscle loss, and deterioration in physical performance values. However, physical exercise programs still play a minor role in treating hematological malignancies. In addition, there are no reliable data in the literature regarding risk factors, feasibility, and exercise results in individuals with hematological malignancies. Although it is known that the use of corticosteroids, which are among the drugs given during chemotherapy, causes muscle weakness, there are no physical exercise programs performed with this patient group in the literature. The current study aims to compare the effects of resistance exercise and resistance exercise combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation on muscle strength, functional lower extremity strength, and mobility in hematological cancer patients during chemotherapy.
