Filter by:Cancer has a psychological, emotional and social impact beyond a patient's physical health. This study examines three new online peer mental-wellness support program for cancer patients, survivors or their caregivers. Each program teaches evidence-based skills, in the context of that groups lived experience, to manage the emotional impact of cancer. This study examines the impact of that program.
Background: PROMISE criteria have been defined for standardized reporting of Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) PET whole-body stage of prostate cancer. PSMA PET disease extent by PROMISE has been associated with oncologic outcome. Need: Improved prognostication across various stages of prostate cancer is needed for management guidance and study design. Aim: 1. To assess the prognostic value of PSMA PET 2. To compare the prognostic value of PSMA PET with clinical prognostic scores in patients with prostate cancer at various disease stages Inclusion: - Adult patients with - biopsy/histo proven prostate cancer who - underwent PSMA PET (any type) - for staging or re-staging at any stage and who - have at least 3-year overall survival follow-up data available will be included consecutively. Exclusion: - Patients with neuroendocrine prostate cancer - Patients with metastasized or disseminated malignancy other than prostate cancer
This is an observational mono-institutional study. Patients with gynecologic tumors treated with advanced radiotherapy- Image Guided Radiotherapy (IGRT), Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT), Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT)- will be included and toxicity and outcomes analyzed.
The goal of this clinical trial is to pilot and evaluate a human-centered injury thrivorship pathway in injury survivors. The main question it aims to answer is: • Is the pathway appropriate, acceptable, and feasible to meet the medical and social needs of injury survivors? Injury survivors will be purposively sampled to enroll in the pathway and asked to participate in in-depth interviews and their use of pathway resources will be tracked.
Retrospective study based on medical records of patients with multiple myeloma, eligible for stem cell transplantation, who received, first-line, the VTD or TD combination.
A nurse-led physical activity program including an individualized exercise program using wearable technology and health coaching based on Social Cognitive Theory will be implemented for women surviving cancer. The impact of the nurse-led physical activity program on physical activity level, health-related quality of life and cognitive factors (self regulation, outcome expectation, self efficacy, perceived social support, perceived environment) will be evaluated in the study.
Using the Multiphase Optimization Strategy (MOST) framework, an engineering-based approach to efficiently and systematically develop, optimize, and evaluate behavioral interventions, this study will test three components: (1) 1:1 counseling with a registered dietitian, (2) behavioral skills development, and (3) group support for delivery alongside a core nutrition curriculum within a clinical exercise oncology program.
The purpose of this pilot study is to examine the feasibility and acceptability of a brief psychotherapy intervention to improve psychosocial coping and maintain couple relationships among young adults (aged 25-39) with cancer and their caregiving partners.
In this retrospective study, we analyzed data from the Sichuan Cancer Hospital & Institute Esophageal Cancer Case Management Database (SCH-ECCM Database) from January 2010 to December 2017. Our study focused on examining the clinicopathological characteristics, lymph node removal at each station, and treatment details of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) who underwent esophagectomy. Using this data, we developed a prediction model for OS by considering a combination of clinical characteristics and details of lymphadenectomy variables.
Treatment summary and survivorship care plans (TSSPs) are poorly studied in Head and Neck Cancer (HNC) patients, and given the high frequency of unmet needs, this patient population has potentially the most to benefit from the implementation of TSSPs. A preliminary feasibility randomized control trial (RCT) at London Regional Cancer Program (LRCP) of 18 patients with HNC evaluating the implementation of TSSPs, found that patients assigned to the intervention group had a 15% higher rate of physician implementation of survivorship care needs compared to the usual care group (40% versus 25%, respectively). Results of the pilot study indicated that successful execution of TSSPs and counselling sessions for HNC patients is feasible. In follow up to the initial feasibility trial, the present investigation seeks to execute a large-scale single arm trial to evaluate a TSSP and counselling intervention specifically tailored to the needs of this vulnerable cancer population. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the delivery of a TSSP during a one-on-one counselling session with HNC survivors to determine whether the intervention results in improved implementation of recommendations for HNC survivors. The investigators will aim to have 40% of survivorship recommendations implemented by 12 months post-intervention. Secondary study objectives will evaluate quality of life and satisfaction with care at 12 months post-intervention.
