NCT ID: NCT06062901 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Malignant Solid Neoplasm

An Educational Intervention on Provider Knowledge for the Support of Cancer Survivors

Start date: September 17, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial utilizes the Project Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes (ECHO) model to recruit, train, and support community healthcare providers in cancer survivorship best practices. Cancer survivors have distinct medical needs and are more likely to report being in poor or fair overall health compared to those who do not report a history of cancer. There is a lack of educational opportunities focused on survivorship care for health providers. Although progress has been made with the development of survivorship guidelines, physicians continue to express barriers to addressing concerns of cancer survivors. This study is to utilize a Survivorship ECHO education intervention to assess its effects on provider knowledge and comfort with survivorship guidelines as well as greater adherence to guideline concordant breast cancer survivorship care recommendations.

NCT ID: NCT06030427 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Malignant Solid Neoplasm

Virtual Mindfulness and Weight Management to Mitigate Risk of Relapse and Improve Wellbeing in Cancer Survivors

Start date: September 8, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial tests how well a virtual mindfulness and weight management program to mitigate risk of relapse and improve well being for obese cancer survivors in community practice and rural areas. Obesity has been linked to increased risk for certain kinds of cancer and is the second highest modifiable risk factor for cancer. It is also well documented that having a cancer diagnosis and treatment is a stressful experience. It is hoped that an addition of a 10-minute mindfulness-based stress reduction exercise to the virtual positive health habits group focused on weight management can improve wellbeing and distress. Virtual care options continue to extend the reach of medical providers to cancer survivors, particularly those in the rural setting. A virtual behavioral weight management program with an integrated mindfulness component may improve mood, coping strategies, stress management, and weight loss among community practice and rural obese cancer survivors.

Telemedicine for Improvement of Care for Older Adults With Cancer in the Underserved Community, The GAIN-S Trial

Start date: July 24, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial evaluates whether geriatric assessment-driven interventions with supportive care (GAIN-S) using telemedicine can be used to identify areas of vulnerability (weakness) in older adults with cancer and guide interventions to assist the patient and the healthcare team in the underserved community. The majority of patients diagnosed with cancer are over age 65 years, yet most cancer treatments are developed and tested in a younger population. Therefore, older patients with cancer are less likely to be offered standard treatments because of the concern regarding side effects. Geriatric assessment (GA) is a multi-dimensional health assessment tool combining patient reported and objective (unbiased) results. There is no standard tool that can identify which older adults will be more likely to have side effects from cancer treatment. Telemedicine is a way to provide healthcare services (including consultations, education, care management and treatment) in which the health care provider is at a distant site. The goal of this project is to use telemedicine to identify areas of vulnerability/weakness in older adults with cancer using a patient assessment, and to identify the potential referrals to a multi-specialty team based on patient assessment results. Information gathered from this study may help researchers learn whether GAIN-S can be performed using telemedicine and lead to improvement in care for older adults compared to standard of care (SOC) in the underserved community.

NCT ID: NCT06015932 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Malignant Solid Neoplasm

Group Cognitive Behavior Sessions (CBCSM) to Decrease Distress in Cancer Patients

Start date: December 20, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial tests how well cognitive behavioral cancer stress management (CBCSM) group sessions work to decrease psychological distress in cancer patients. CBCSM teaches patients how to recognize and reduce the impacts of cancer associated stress on the biological, psychological, and social life domains.

NCT ID: NCT06009926 Suspended - Clinical trials for Malignant Solid Neoplasm

Evaluation of Broccoli Seed and Sprout Extract for Detoxification of Carcinogens in Firefighters

Start date: December 4, 2023
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial tests how well broccoli seed and sprout extract (BSSE) also called Avmacol extra strength (ES) works to help break down (detoxification) some of the cancer-causing chemicals (carcinogens) that firefighters are exposed to in order to help protect cells from smoke damage. Firefighters are routinely exposed to carcinogens during the course of their daily duties particularly from smoke exposure arising from active fire rescue, structural or incidental firefighting or burning, as well as flashover training. Flashover training simulator has been specifically designed for observation and recognition of fire behavior from rollover to flashover by varying fuel loading and altering ventilation. The simulator contains the fire behavior prop with smoke coming out and air being drawn in. All fires, including those in flashover training, release toxic and carcinogenic substances. These substances, many of which are known carcinogens, increase the risk of cancer in firefighters. Several studies to date have demonstrated that firefighters are at an increased risk of developing various malignancies including melanoma, multiple myeloma, acute myeloid leukemia, prostate, kidney, brain, and respiratory tract cancers among others. Broccoli extract has the potential to effectively enhance detoxification. This study may help researchers learn how BSSE can help break down chemicals that firefighters are exposed to during flashover training to help protect their cells from smoke-damage and reduce cancer risk.

NCT ID: NCT05997589 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Malignant Solid Neoplasm

Financial Health Educational Program for Increasing Financial Literacy Among Underserved Communities in Western New York

Start date: May 17, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial evaluates a financial health educational program to educate and increase knowledge for financial health and well-being, and to ensure access to financial knowledge and resources among underserved community members in Western New York. Financial well-being consists of a person's ability to meet financial obligations, feelings of financial security, ability to make choices related to financial matters. Information gathered from this study may help researchers learn how a financial health educational program may increase financial literacy for financial health and well-being among underserved community members in Western New York.

NCT ID: NCT05950399 Completed - Clinical trials for Malignant Solid Neoplasm

Stress Echocardiography to Identify Chemotherapy Induced Cardiotoxicity in Cancer Patients With Heart Failure Risk

Start date: June 29, 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial evaluates changes in cardiac (heart) function during stress echocardiography to screen for chemically induced cardiotoxicity in cancer patients at a high risk for developing heart failure. Some chemotherapeutic agents to treat certain types of cancers can induce cardiac dysfunction and heart failure. Currently there is no validated means of predicting which patients will go on to develop cardiac toxicity and heart failure following treatment with chemotherapeutic agents. Stress echocardiography is a test that uses ultrasound imaging to show how well the heart muscle is working to pump blood to the body during low intensity exercise. Stress echocardiography prior to and during cancer treatment may help doctors find cancer therapeutic related cardiac dysfunction sooner when it may be easier to treat.

NCT ID: NCT05941858 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Malignant Solid Neoplasm

Online Tai Chi Intervention to Promote Smoking Cessation Among Cancer Survivors

Start date: December 31, 2023
Phase: Early Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial evaluates an online Tai Chi intervention to promote smoking cessation among cancer survivors. Tai chi is a practice that involves a series of slow gentle movements and physical postures, a meditative state of mind, and controlled breathing. It is a gentle form of exercise that can be done while sitting or standing and does not involve any medications or medical procedures. Tai chi originated as an ancient martial art in China. Over the years, it has become more focused on health promotion and rehabilitation. The use of Tai Chi may be beneficial for cancer patients who want to quit smoking.
