Racial Disparities and Barriers in the Delivery of Guideline-Recommended Care for Metastatic Prostate Cancer

Black men are diagnosed with prostate cancer more often than white men, and more commonly die from this disease. Care for advanced prostate cancer has improved a great deal over the past ten years, but these differences have continued. In order to improve equity in cancer care, we want to determine who is not getting the highest quality of care and whether race is associated with differences in care. Our study will ask Black and White men about their experiences with cancer care - if they trusted their doctors, how well their doctors communicated with them, and if they were satisfied with the care they received. We will ask about the challenges they experienced in receiving care, and what might have helped them get better care. We will use these results to design a better way to deliver care.

A STUDY OF SELINEXOR AND VENETOCLAX WITH CHEMOTHERAPY IN PATIENTS WITH REFRACTORY OR RELAPSED ACUTE MYELOID LEUKEMIA

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of the two study drugs, venetoclax and selinexor, and to find the highest dose of venetoclax and selinexor that can be given safely when it is combined with chemotherapy drugs (cytarabine or cytarabine and fludarabine). This study tests different doses of venetoclax and selinexor to see which dose is safer in children with leukemia.

Detecting the Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cells Idecabtagene Vicleucel and Ciltacabtagene Autoleucel in Patients with Multiple Myeloma

Research with blood and cells (generally called specimens) can help researchers understand how the human body works. Research can also answer other questions by using specimens. Researchers may develop new tests to find diseases, or new ways to treat diseases. In the future, research may help to develop new products, such as drugs. You are being asked for permission to use your biospecimens and medical records for this study. Using your biospecimens, researchers may be able to detect CAR-T cells in your body after you receive the CAR-T treatment. The purpose of this study is to validate the detection method of CAR-T cells in the blood to advance CAR-T therapy development.

P3OC pilot

The expected outcome of this proposal is a novel care pathway delivered by pharmacists to improve side effects during oral chemotherapy for patients, a known barrier to adherence, and ultimately to prevent progression and early mortality. Our long-term goal for P3OC is to develop and test new dashboard features to optimize pharmacy care, meet future needs for value-based payment models, and improve patient outcomes.

Rural Endometrial Cancer Patients Providers and Healthcare Administrators

The purpose of this project is to identify and target barriers faced by rural endometrial cancer patients in order to develop a patient navigation intervention. Rural residents with endometrial cancer, the most prevalent gynecologic cancer in the US, have higher odds of mortality than urban endometrial cancer patients. As the number of new endometrial cancer cases is expected to increase 50% by 2030, this urban-rural disparity is expected to continue widening.
