The purpose of this research study is to deliver 6 months of 1:1 health coaching to cancer patients being treated at UNC Cancer Hospital. This program hopes to improve patient's self-confidence and satisfaction with how they feel and what they are able to do day-to-day. This includes exercising, support for healthy eating, emotional and social needs. Health coaching means you will receive weekly phone calls and emails from a trained coach.
The purpose of this study is to establish a safe dose of study cells to give to patients with relapsed/ refractory ALL expressing CD19.
The purpose of this study is to identify specific barriers to preventing a late stage cancer diagnosis within communities identified in North Carolina as having a higher rate of advanced cancer diagnoses.
Purpose:This is a two-arm preliminary efficacy RCT in 120 participants testing a 6-week home-based walking and progressive resistance exercise program (EXCAP©®) vs. standard care on CIPN, interoception, and inflammation. Participants: This study will enroll 120 participants receiving neurotoxic chemotherapy or have completed neurotoxic chemotherapy in the past nine months (i.e., taxane-, platinum-, vinca alkaloid-, epothilone-, or proteasome inhibitor-based chemotherapy). Procedures (methods): Participants will complete questionnaires, clinical assessments, and a blood draw at two time points: pre-intervention (week 0, T1) and post-intervention (approximately week 6, T2).
We are collecting blood and optionally stool, bone marrow or tissue samples from patients who received cell therapy or a stem cell transplant to treat cancer. This will help understand how the immune system recovers after cell therapy or stem cell transplant and how it may relate to patient outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to measure the effect of 30 mg RE104 on adjustment disorder symptoms (depressed mood or anxiety) compared to 1.5 mg RE104 in participants with cancer or other illnesses in order to decrease these symptoms.
The overall objective of this project is to examine differences in performance fatigability and contributing mechanisms between firefighters in cancer remission and healthy firefighter controls. Findings from this research project will inform future interventions to reduce CRF in firefighters in cancer remission.
This study is an access and distribution protocol for unlicensed cryopreserved cord blood units (CBUs) in pediatric and adult patients with hematologic malignancies and other indications. This protocol will allow access to cord blood units that are unlicensed.
This study seeks to better understand the unmet needs and care preferences of young adult cancer patients and their caregivers. Interviews to gather this information will be used to tailor an existing, evidence-based patient navigation program to these needs and preferences.
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
