We would like to learn about how people who apply for healthcare financial assistance experience the application process, including things that make the application process work well or that were challenging. At this time we are not able to offer interviews to people who applied to UNC or Duke, we are interested in hearing from people who applied to other programs (such as Atrium, Novant, Wake, Vidant, ECU, Cape Fear Health Net, Physicians Reach Out, or Project Access).
Are you a young adult cancer survivor who would like to improve your health? Interested in using technology to support a healthy diet, get more physically active, and make healthy lifestyle changes? Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are looking for volunteers to sign up for a 3-month research program using a Fitbit activity tracker and mobile app to improve your physical activity and dietary habits.
Are you over 60 and were recently diagnosed with mantle cell lymphoma? You may be able to participate in a research study to determine whether patients who reach complete disease remission after treatment with rituximab and zanubrutinib, will remain longer in remission with or without continuous zanubrutinib treatment.
Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is the name for types of lymphoma that sometimes develop in people who have had a transplant. It can affect people who are taking medicines to suppress their immune system. This study is being done to study whether treating PTLD with a combination of the drugs tafasitamab and rituximab is more effective than rituximab alone - the current standard of care treatment for this disease.
The study is researching an experimental drug called odronextamab. The study is for patients with previously untreated follicular lymphoma (a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma). In this study, we want to find out more about how safe and tolerable the study drug is. We will also compare how well the study drug orks compared to rituximab and chemotherapy (the current standard of care for NHL).
