The purpose of this study is to learn what women with HIV think about cervical cancer screening. We also want to talk about the idea of using HPV self-collection (where women collect their own sample) instead of going to the clinic for testing. This information will help us see if self- collection can help more women with HIV get screened for cervical cancer.
The purpose of this study is to learn how having specific help over a period of time (financial navigation) can help reduce your distress related to the cost of cancer. You will complete a survey to see if you have financial distress. If you have financial distress, you will then fill out a few more surveys and be asked more details about your current financial situation to determine what programs could be helpful for you. The surveys can be completed in person, by email, or over the phone. The navigator can help you complete the surveys if needed. After that, depending on your needs, you will have 1-6 appointments with the financial navigator over a period of 2 weeks -4 months. Risks to you are small due to the educational nature of this study. They may include mild emotional distress while talking about your cancer and financial experiences. Benefits
We aim to characterize work exposures and illness in Badin, North Carolina--the site of an aluminum smelting facility for nearly 100 years.
The GET SET Study is a research study for women who take medicines to help keep breast cancer from coming back. These medicines are called endocrine therapies and include Tamoxifen and Arimidex. The study will test different kinds of extra support programs, such as daily text message reminders and telephone counseling sessions, for women taking these medicines. We want to learn which support programs help women take their medicine as it is prescribed by their doctor.
To comprehensively characterize the clinical, laboratory, and histopathologic features of breast cancer patients receiving care according to local standards in Malawi.
The goal of this study is to see if it is feasible to use electronic questionnaires to measure patient related outcomes before, during, and after radiation for gynecologic cancer in a high-volume radiation oncology clinic.
This is a non-interventional, observational study to collect data on survival, quality of life, and other follow-up information on patients who receive GammaTile therapy.
We want to learn more about how patients who have small renal masses make treatment decision and about what kinds of features they value in the tests that we use to work up this condition.
Ovarian cancer is the second most frequently diagnosed gynecologic cancer in the United States. Although it is the eleventh most common cancer among women, ovarian cancer is the fifth leading cause of cancer-related death. Fortunately, survival rates for ovarian cancer patients have been improving over the past few decades due to advances in medical procedures and the availability of new cancer drugs. However, studies have shown that the improvement of clinical outcomes are unequal among patients of different racial and ethnic backgrounds. This study seeks to understand the factors associated with healthcare disparities in Black ovarian cancer patients and identify features of programs that have been successful in addressing these racial imbalances. The findings of this study will help the researcher develop future programs to address healthcare disparities in Black ovarian cancer patients.
The purpose of this research study is to learn more about Barrett's Esophagus and esophageal cancer by collecting data and samples (blood and tissue) for a biorepository. A biorepository is a large bank of specimens and data that are stored indefinitely and may be shared with other researchers.
