Filter by:This clinical trial studies how well Talking Pictures social media intervention works in reducing depressive symptoms and improving spiritual well-being and quality of life in adolescent and young adult cancer patients. Talking Pictures social media intervention may help doctors better learn how to most effectively provide psychosocial support to adolescent and young adult cancer patients.
This phase I pilot trial studies how well video distraction works to decrease the use of sedation in pediatric participants during radiation therapy. Radiation treatment requires participants to lie very still (for accuracy). Many children cannot do this without sedation. Watching movies during radiation may distract children so they don't need sedation to complete treatment.
This pilot trial studies how well a resistance training program and cardiovascular exercise work in increasing muscle mass in adolescent and young adult stem cell transplant survivors. Resistance training and cardiovascular exercise may increase physical activity, muscular strength and improve lean body mass which is beneficial to improving the overall health of stem cell transplant survivors.
This trial studies how well a mobile smartphone application called Quitting Schedule works in helping participants to quit smoking. Quitting Schedule is based on WebCASSI, a computer-based initiative that offered state of-the-art smoking cessation treatment and counseling to MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC) patients and served as a portal for non-patients to find information regarding smoking cessation advice and treatments. Quitting Schedule may help participants to quit smoking.
This trial studies a survey of post-acute inpatient rehabilitation safety concerns in participants with cancer. Collecting patients' feedback via surveys may help doctors to learn more about the safety concerns that patients have when they are discharged from the acute inpatient cancer rehabilitation unit.
This expanded access protocol studies bone marrow transplantation using CD34-selected stem cells from related or unrelated donors in treating participants with cancer or other disorders. Stem cells collected from the donor will be processed using a new device called CliniMACS CD34 Reagent System which marks the blood cells collected from the donor with a special protein called "antibody" that tags only the donor stem cells, sorting out other cells of the blood and immune system. This is done to remove, at least partially, some of the T cells. T cells are the cells in the blood that work as scavengers of the immune system deciding what belongs and what does not. These cells can sometimes cause rejection of the donor graft or a condition called graft-versus host disease (GVHD), where the donor cells can attack the body of the recipient. A bone marrow transplantation using CD34-selected stem cells may reduce the risk of these unwanted side effects of transplant as much as possible.
The main purpose of this project is to adapt and validate an eHealth fertility preservation decision-making support tool (Fertilit-e) for young adults with cancer.
This randomized phase III trial studies how well olanzapine with or without fosaprepitant work in preventing chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting in cancer patients receiving chemotherapy that causes vomiting. Olanzapine and fosaprepitant dimeglumine may help control nausea and vomiting in patients during chemotherapy. Olanzapine is usually given in combination with other drugs, including fosaprepitant dimeglumine. It is not yet known if olanzapine when given with other drugs, is still effective without using fosaprepitant dimeglumine for controlling nausea and vomiting.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of combining autologous Tcm immunotherapy and TACE in HCC patients with MVI after radical resection. Patients will be assigned either to the experimental arm to receive autologous Tcm immunotherapy and TACE or to the active comparator (TACE alone).
This trial studies how well virtual reality (VR) works in reducing pain and anxiety in cancer participants undergoing bone marrow biopsy or lumbar puncture. Virtual reality may impact pain and anxiety during and after the procedure.
