Step counts less than 2500 are classified as basal, step counts between 2500 to 4999 are classified as limited, step counts between 5000 to 7499 are classified as low, step counts between 7500-9999 are classified as somewhat active, step counts between 10000 to 12499 are classified as active, and step counts over 12500 are classified as very active., Baseline, post-intervention (16 weeks)|Minutes of Moderate-to-Vigorous Activity Per Day as Measured by the ActiGraph GT9X Link, The Actigraph GT9X Links measures activity counts each minute of wear time. Each activity count over 3,941 equals 1 minute of moderate-vigorous physical activity. A total of 150 or more weekly MVPA minutes meets Physical Activity guideline recommendations., Baseline, post-intervention (16 weeks) | Body Composition from Baseline as Measured by percentage of total body mass, Body composition will be assessed using the Bod Pod at University of North Carolina and the DXA at University of Arkansas. The Bod Pod is an air displacement plethysmograph that uses whole-body densitometry to determine fat, lean, and total body mass. Total body mass \>30%for men/40% for women=risky, 21- 30%for men/31-40%for women=extra fat, 13-20%for men/23-30% for women=acceptable, 9-12% for men/19 -22% for women=excellent health ), 5-8 % for men/15-18 %for women= ultra lean, and \<5 percent and \<15%=risky low body fat. The Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA) scan measures body fat percentage. Optimal body fat percentages for adults age 20-29 are 16-24%for females/7-17 % for males; age 30-39 are 17-25% for females/12-21% for males, age 40-49 are 19-28% for females/14-23% for males, ages 50-59 are 22-31% for females/16-24% for males, age 60+ are 22-33% for females/17-25% for males. Numbers that are higher than optimal=overweight and lower than optimal=underweight., Baseline, post-intervention (16 weeks), Follow-up (74 weeks)|Wellbeing from Baseline as Measured by the World Health Organization Quality of Life Assessment and Disabilities Module, Adults with intellectual disability (ID) will complete the World Health Organization Quality of Life Assessment and World Health Organization Disabilities Module measures of quality of life. The WHOQoL-BREF and WHO Disabilities module is an abbreviated 39-item version of the original WHOQOL tool that has been used in adults with ID. The domain scores will be used to measure the general quality of life (Overall, Health, Physical, Psychological, Social, Environment, and Disabilities Module). Scores Range from 0-100 with higher scores indicating better quality of life., Baseline, post-intervention (16 weeks)|Daily Living Skills from Baseline as Measured by the Waisman Activities of Daily Living Scale, Activities of daily living will be measured using caregiver-report using the Waisman Activities of Daily Living (W-ADL). The 17-item W-ADL measures the level of independence in performing typical daily activities for adolescents and adults. The W-ADL has demonstrated high internal consistency (Cronbach alphas= .88-.94) and reliability over time (Kappas= .92-.93) in adults with intellectual disability. Performance is rated on a 3-point scale (0 means the participant does not do the activity at all, 1 means the participant does the activity with help, and 2 means the participant does the activity independently). The scoring range is 0 to 34 with higher scores signifying greater independence in daily living activities., Baseline, post-intervention (16 weeks)|Mental and Cognitive Functioning from Baseline as Measured by the NIH-Toolbox Cognitive Battery, Mental and cognitive functioning will be measured using the NIH-Toolbox Cognitive Battery (NIHTB-CB), which has been validated in individuals with intellectual disability and adults across the spectrum of Alzheimer's disease and age-related cognitive decline. The NIHTB-CB is an iPad-based assessment of memory, executive function, and crystallized intelligence. The Fluid Cognition Composite includes fluid ability measures: Flanker, Dimensional Change Card Sort, Picture Sequence Memory, List Sorting and Pattern Comparison. The Crystallized Cognition Composite Score includes the Picture Vocabulary and Reading Tests. The composite scores are derived by averaging the standard scores of each of the measures. Higher scores indicate higher levels of functioning - a score at/near 100 indicates ability that is average compared with others nationally, 115 suggests above-average, 130 suggests superior ability, 85 suggests significantly below-average, and a score of below suggests very low., Baseline, post-intervention (16 weeks)|Psychological Well-Being, and Social Relationships from Baseline as Measured by the NIH Toolbox Emotion Battery, Social belonging will be assessed through questionnaires using the NIH Toolbox Emotion battery including the Psychological Well-Being, Social Relationships domains with adults with intellectual disability. The NIH-Toolbox Emotion Battery has been validated in adults with and without neurological disorders. The Psychological Well-Being Domain is derived from a weighted average of T-scores for Positive Affect, General Life Satisfaction, and Meaning \& Purpose. Higher scores indicate more self-reported psychological well-being. Scores below 40 suggest low levels of psychological well-being, and scores above 60 suggest high levels of psychological well-being. The Social Satisfaction summary score is derived from Friendship, Loneliness, Emotional Support, Instrumental Support, and Perceived Rejection. Higher scores indicate higher social satisfaction. Scores below 40 suggest low levels of social satisfaction, and scores above 60 suggest high levels of social satisfaction., Baseline, post-intervention (16 weeks)|Stress and Self-Efficacy, and Negative Affect from Baseline as Measured by the NIH Toolbox Emotion Battery, Social belonging will be assessed through questionnaires using the NIH Toolbox Emotion battery including the Stress and Self-Efficacy, and Negative Affect domains. Stress and Self-Efficacy focus on individual perceptions about the nature of their events and their relationship to the perceived coping resources. On Perceived Stress, higher scores are indicative of more perceived stress. Scores at or below 40 suggest low perceived stress and scores at or above 60 suggest high perceived stress. On Self-efficacy, higher scores are indicative of more general self-efficacy. Scores at or below 40 suggest low self-efficacy levels and scores at or above 60 suggest high self-efficacy levels. Negative Affect summary score is derived from the Anger-Affect, Anger-Hostility, Sadness, Fear-Affect, and Perceived Stress Domains. Higher scores are indicative of more negative affect. Scores at or below 40 suggest low levels, and scores at or above 60 suggest high levels of negative affect., Baseline, post-intervention (16 weeks)|Grip Strength from Baseline as Measured by the Hand Dynamometer, Grip strength will be assessed by a 1-rep max strength assessment. Participants will be asked to squeeze the hand dynamometer as hard as they can for 3 seconds. Grip strength is measured with a standard score metric (normative mean = 100, Standard Deviation = 15). It compares the performance of the test-taker to those in the entire NIH Toolbox nationally representative normative sample. Higher standard scores indicate better performance., Baseline, post-intervention (16 weeks)|Ability to Maintain Balance from Baseline as Measured by the 4-Stage Balance Test, Balance will be measured by the 4-Stage Balance Test. The test consists of four standing positions that are progressively harder to maintain. Each position is held for a maximum of 10 seconds. This is scored by number of seconds, with 10 being the maximum score indicating static balance., Baseline, post-intervention (16 weeks)|Functional Lower Extremity Strength and Endurance from Baseline as Measured by the 30-Second Chair Stand, Functional strength will be measured by the 30-second chair stand. This test consists of participants getting up from a chair without using their arms. They get up and sit down repeatedly for 30 seconds. Their score is the number of times they can get up from the chair. The higher the score indicates greater leg strength and endurance., Baseline, post-intervention (16 weeks)|Mobility from Baseline as Measured by the Timed Up & Go (TUG), Mobility will be assessed through the Timed Up \& Go (TUG) assessment. This test consists of participants getting up from a chair, walking 10 feet across the room around a cone, and sitting back down. This is scored in seconds. A time of ≥12 seconds to complete the TUG is at risk for falling., Baseline, post-intervention (16 weeks)|Endurance from Baseline as Measured by the 2-Minute Walk Endurance Test, This test consists of participants walking as fast as they can for two-minutes up and down the hallway of the assessment spaces. The participant's raw score is the distance walked in two minutes, reported in feet (and fractions thereof). This score is then converted to the NIH Toolbox normative scores. Higher scores are indicative of better endurance. Scores at or below 30 are suggestive of motor dysfunction., Baseline, post-intervention (16 weeks) | University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill | National Institute on Aging (NIA) | ALL | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | NA | 376 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: SINGLE (OUTCOMES_ASSESSOR)|Primary Purpose: TREATMENT | 24-0921|5R01AG076678-02 | 2025-01-10 | 2027-12 | 2028-06 | 2024-12-18 | 2025-01-15 | University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, Arkansas, 72701, United States|University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, North Carolina, 27517, United States | |||

NCT06644573 | Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy™ in Patients With Sleep Deprivation and Chronic Insomnia | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06644573 | PSHW | This clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy (PSTx) for individuals suffering from chronic insomnia, sleep deprivation, and REM sleep disorders. Chronic insomnia, characterized by difficulty falling or staying asleep, significantly affects patients and quality of life, mood, and cognitive function. REM sleep disorders, in which the body struggles to enter or maintain restful REM sleep, can worsen these issues. The trial introduces a novel therapy using anesthesia-induced sleep, targeting sleep homeostasis and improving sleep architecture. Objectives: The primary goals of the trial are to determine: 1. Whether PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy increases the quality of REM sleep. 2. Whether PSTx increases the duration of REM and/or NREM sleep. 3. Whether PSTx decreases the time it takes participants to fall asleep (sleep onset latency). Participants will receive ONE (1) PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy session lasting between 60-120 minutes. Each session uses Diprivan/Propofol to induce sleep, and is monitored via an EEG to ensure proper sleep stages, particularly REM sleep. Participant Criteria: Inclusion: Adults aged 18-65 with diagnosed or undiagnosed chronic insomnia or sleep deprivation. Exclusion: Patients with severe obesity, significant cardiovascular, neurological, or psychiatric conditions, or those with an ASA status above II. Study Design: This trial is non-randomized, single-arm and open-label, with all participants receiving the PSTx. The trial does not include a comparison group, as the focus is on evaluating the immediate, direct effects of the therapy. Participants will undergo continuous EEG monitoring during therapy sessions, allowing researchers to track brain activity and sleep stages in real-time. This method ensures that sleep cycles, particularly REM sleep, are optimized for therapeutic benefit. Therapy Methodology: PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy leverages anesthesia to mimic natural sleep patterns and enhance the efficiency of REM sleep. Diprivan/Propofol is used to induce REM sleep, while EEG monitoring tracks and maintains proper sleep architecture throughout the session. The therapy promotes the clearance of adenosine, a compound that builds up during wakefulness and drives the need for sleep. Adenosine is cleared during REM sleep, reducing sleep pressure and improving cognitive function. Outcome Measures: Primary Outcomes: Researchers will measure the increase in REM sleep duration, improvement in sleep quality (via self-reported questionnaires), and a reduction in sleep onset latency. Secondary Outcomes: These include changes in mood, cognitive function, and blood serum uric acid levels. Patient-reported outcomes will also be tracked through tools like the PROSOMNIA Sleep Quiz, which is specifically designed for PSTx. Significance: Chronic insomnia and REM sleep disorders affect millions globally, leading to cognitive impairment, mood disturbances, and poor overall health. Traditional treatments, including pharmacological approaches and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), often provide suboptimal results for many individuals. PSTx offers a novel, therapeutic approach to restoring sleep balance and enhancing the overall quality of sleep, particularly for those who have not responded to conventional treatments. Study Process: Recruitment and Baseline Assessments: Participants undergo a comprehensive sleep assessment, including sleep questionnaires and polysomnography, to establish a baseline for sleep quality and duration. Blood serum uric acid levels will also be measured to track any biochemical changes due to therapy. Therapy Sessions: Only one (1) PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy session will be administered, with the session lasting between 60-120 minutes. Diprivan/Propofol is used to induce sleep, and EEG will monitor brain activity to ensure the proper balance of sleep stages. Post-Therapy Follow-up: Follow-up assessments will occur at 24 hours, 7 days, and 30 days post-treatment. Researchers will analyze the therapy effects on REM sleep, mood, cognitive function, and other health indicators. Potential Implications: If successful, this trial could revolutionize how we treat sleep disorders by targeting the underlying mechanisms of sleep pressure and REM sleep disruption. PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy may offer a safe, effective, and immediate alternative for patients who have exhausted other treatment options. Key Concepts: Homeostatic sleep drive, (Process S), caused by adenosine buildup during wakefulness, is disrupted by chronic insomnia. This impacts cognitive function health and recovery. Anesthesia-induced REM sleep via PSTx helps regulate this homeostatic sleep stage, offering deeper and more restorative sleep compared to other sleep therapies. The study uses statistical methods like ANOVA and Chi-square to measure outcomes. | NO | Chronic Insomnia|Sleep Deprivation|REM Behavior Disorder|REM Sleep Behavior Disorder|REM Sleep Measurement|Insomnia|Insomnia Related to Specified Disorder|Insomnia Due to Other Mental Disorder|Insomnia Comorbid to Psychiatric Disorder|Insomnia Due to Anxiety and Fear|Insomnia Related to Another Mental Condition|Insomnia Disorders|Idiopathic Hypersomnia|Sleep Disorders, Circadian Rhythm|Post Trauma Nightmares|PTSD – Post Traumatic Stress Disorder|Sleep Quality|Anesthesia|Anxiety|Depression|Mental Health|Alzheimer Disease or Associated Disorder|Parkinsons|Circadian Rhythm|Circadian Dysregulation|PTSD|Post-Traumatic|Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Complex|Military Combat Stress Reaction|Sleep|Military Activity|Veterans|Shift Work Sleep Disorder|Menopause Related Conditions|Pain|Cancer Pain|Athletes | PROCEDURE: PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy™ (PSTx)|PROCEDURE: Anesthesia-Induced Sleep Therapy|DRUG: Diprivan (propofol), Astra-Zeneca|DEVICE: Continuous EEG Monitoring | Reduction in Homeostatic Sleep Pressure, Evaluate the effectiveness of PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy in reducing homeostatic sleep pressure, as measured by EEG recordings, blood serum uric acid levels and subjective self-reports., 60-120 minutes|Change in Sleep Onset Latency, Measure the time it takes for patients to fall asleep (sleep onset latency) following PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy, using polysomnography (PSG)., 30 days|Change in REM Sleep Duration, Measure the improvement in the duration of REM sleep using EEG and polysomnography (PSG) before, during and after PROSOMNIA Sleep Therapy., 30 days|Change in Overall Sleep Health, The PROSOMNIA Sleep Quiz (PSQ) is a comprehensive tool used to assess sleep health, specifically for identifying chronic insomnia, REM sleep deprivation, or both.

NCT06609057 | Cooking for Your Health in Southern New Mexico: an 8-week, Bilingual (English and Spanish) Nutritional Intervention in Adults Living in Doña Ana and Otero Counties | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06609057 | This clinical trial evaluates a nutritional intervention called Cooking for Your Health in Southern New Mexico for improving diet quality and knowledge related to nutrition and cancer prevention among individuals living in the Southern region of New Mexico. New Mexico border communities have high rates of cancer and obesity, both exacerbated by poor diet quality. Traditional Mexican diets are high in fruit, vegetables, and fiber, but are intensive to prepare and not practical for many families living in New Mexico now. Vegetable oils, such as canola, safflower, and sunflower oils, are commonly used in cooking within the regional New Mexican community because they are inexpensive and readily available; however, they may not be as healthy as other options. Interventions focused on teaching proper cooking techniques and raising awareness about nutritious foods have shown positive behavior changes, including greater preference for healthier foods, increased confidence in food preparation and cooking a balanced meal, and higher vegetable variety and availability in the home. This study may help identify effective and culturally relevant real-world strategies to improve knowledge, skills, behaviors, and access to resources to improve nutrient intake, with the long-term goal of decreasing cancer risk and chronic disease risk in southern New Mexican communities. | NO | Dietary Carcinogenesis|Nutrition, Healthy | OTHER: Nutritional Intervention|OTHER: Questionnaire Administration|OTHER: Survey Administration|OTHER: Discussion | Accrual rate, The intervention will be considered feasible if accrual goals are met within 6 months of trial activation.

NCT06413888 | Nasogastric Decompression Following Pancreaticoduodenectomy | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06413888 | whipple | Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) remains the gold-standard operation for peri-ampullary neoplasms. Traditionally, gastric decompression via nasogastric intubation has been employed postoperatively to prevent nausea, vomiting, aspiration pneumonia, anastomotic leakage and delayed gastric emptying. Recently, the implementation of ERAS protocol recommended against routine use of nasogastric tube following PD. however, limited data exists surrounding the identification of those patients needing NGT decompression in the immediate postoperative period. Therefore, we initiated a large prospective randomized controlled trial to evaluate the clinical outcomes of patients who retained the NGT post-PD versus those who had it removed at the end of the procedure. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of nasogastric decompression in PD recovery, with the primary endo point being the need for and impact of NGT in the postoperative recovery.

NCT06315296 | An Interactive Time-Restricted Diet Intervention (txt4fasting) for Reducing Neurocognitive Decline and Improving Survival in Patients With Brain Metastases From Breast or Lung Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06315296 | This clinical trial tests the effectiveness of an interactive time-restricted diet intervention (txt4fasting) in reducing neurocognitive decline and improving survival outcomes after stereotactic radiosurgery in patients with breast or lung cancer that has spread to the brain (brain metastases). Lung cancer and breast cancer are the two most frequent causes of brain metastases. The diagnosis of brain metastases is associated with poorer survival and tumor-induced and treatment-related side effects. Stereotactic radiosurgery is a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position the patient and precisely give a single large dose of radiation to a tumor. Patients who receive stereotactic radiosurgery for brain metastases may experience less neurocognitive side effects than with other types of brain radiation, but may still be at risk for their brain metastases growing, spreading, or getting worse. Patients with obesity and diabetes have been shown to have worse survival and increased radiation-related side effects. Evidence demonstrates that simply changing meal timing can have a positive impact on multiple health outcomes. Time-restricted eating, or prolonged nighttime fasting, has been proven to have positive effects on heart disease risk reduction, weight control management and chemotherapy side effect reduction. Txt4fasting may be effective in decreasing neurocognitive decline and improving survival outcomes in patients undergoing stereotactic radiosurgery for brain metastases from breast or lung cancer. | NO | Anatomic Stage IV Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Metastatic Breast Carcinoma|Metastatic Lung Carcinoma|Metastatic Malignant Neoplasm in the Brain|Stage IV Lung Cancer AJCC v8 | BEHAVIORAL: Behavioral Dietary Intervention|OTHER: Text Message-Based Navigation Intervention|OTHER: Internet-Based Intervention|BEHAVIORAL: Dietary Counseling and Surveillance|RADIATION: Stereotactic Radiosurgery|PROCEDURE: Biospecimen Collection|PROCEDURE: Magnetic Resonance Imaging|OTHER: Neurocognitive Assessment|OTHER: Questionnaire Administration|OTHER: Interview|OTHER: Internet-Based Intervention|RADIATION: Stereotactic Radiosurgery|OTHER: Text Message-Based Navigation Intervention|PROCEDURE: Biospecimen Collection|PROCEDURE: Magnetic Resonance Imaging|OTHER: Neurocognitive Assessment|OTHER: Questionnaire Administration|OTHER: Interview | Accrual rate, Feasibility will be defined as 70% of eligible patients reached consent and enroll.

NCT06125964 | eMOTION Formative Study | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06125964 | The eMOTION Study is a two-part ORBIT model phase 1 trial. The first part, called the Formative Study, will assess acceptability and feasibility of a novel physical activity intervention in adults at increased risk for cancer due to overweight or obesity. | NO | Physical Inactivity|Overweight or Obesity|Cancer | BEHAVIORAL: Intensity-Based Goals|BEHAVIORAL: Affect-Based Goals|BEHAVIORAL: TYPE/CONTEXT Enhancement|BEHAVIORAL: SAVOR Enhancement | Safety Benchmark: Percentage of participants experiencing an adverse event, An adverse event is that which is unexpected, related or possibly related to the study procedures, and serious (adversely affecting the balance of risks and benefits to participation, including incidents that require hospitalization, specialist treatment, or medical intervention). This refers to any adverse event that can be reasonably determined (at least in part) to be due to the study procedures and not due to a participant’s underlying medical conditions or risk factor profile alone. This is assessed by official University of Southern California Institutional Review Board reporting procedures. The study’s official “go/no-go” criterion is that less than 1% of participants experience an adverse event during the study., Event onset reported as from first day of run-in period (i.e., day 1) to one week post-data collection (week 4)|Efficacy Benchmark: Percentage of participants with increased physical activity enjoyment, During the exit interview, participants compare their experience with physical activity before and after participation in the eMOTION Study and are asked if they personally feel as if the degree of enjoyment they feel while engaging in physical activity changed or stayed the same. The percentage of participants responding affirmatively will be calculated. The “go/no-go criterion” is that ≥51% of participants in the affect-based conditions report a perceived increase in enjoyment of physical activity., Reported at 3 weeks (i.e., post-study)|Accessibility/Usability Benchmark: System Usability Scale score (0 to 100) for Daily Goal Sessions & Fitbit, In the Post-Study Questionnaire, participants will rate the usability of the eMOTION Study’s daily goal sessions and Fitbit Versa protocol via the System Usability Scale (SUS). The SUS has 10 items, and participants indicate their degree of agreement with each statement on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from “strongly disagree” (1) to “strongly agree” (5). The SUS is then scored by summing across items (all items are first rescored to a 0 to 4 scale, and even items are reverse-scored before summing) and then multiplying the sum by 2.5. The study’s go/no-go criterion is that both the daily goal sessions and Fitbit protocols receive at least an average score (≥68) on the SUS., Reported at 3 weeks (i.e., post-study)|Equity Benchmark: Accessibility (SUS score) approximately equal between sub-groups, Equity is defined as SUS scores for daily goal sessions and Fitbit protocol (i.e., accessibility) that are approximately equal between sex, race, ethnicity, age, BMI, income, and able-bodied groups. While this cannot be tested statistically due to a lack of power in the Formative Study to compare groups of subjects, the investigators will compare average scores to ensure that the intervention yields similar effects regardless of sex, race, ethnicity, age, BMI, income, and able-bodied. The go/no-go criterion is that SUS scores will be approximately equal between groups., Reported at 3 weeks (i.e., post-study) | Accessibility Benchmark: Percentage of participants rating Fitbit interface as accessible, The degree of accessibility of the Fitbit interface for the study will also be assessed in the exit interview. Specifically, participants are asked a series of questions about whether they were able to read, understand, and select answers for Fitbit watch face surveys and use the exercise settings. The go/no-go criterion is that at least 51% of participants respond affirmatively for each facet., Reported at 3 weeks (i.e., post-study)|Sustainability/Feasibility Benchmark: Event-Contingent Fitbit surveys correctly triggered, Event-contingent surveys are triggered when Fitbit sensors detect physical activity via moving average heart rate max. Using Fitabase data exports, the investigators will determine the percentage of correctly triggered surveys. The go/no-go criterion is that the auto-detection algorithm for physical activity correctly triggers event-contingent surveys 51% of the time., From first full day of intervention (i.e., day 8) to last day of data collection (i.e., day 21)|Sustainability/Feasibility Benchmark: Fitbit device malfunctions, Another go/no-go criterion for the sustainability/feasibility of the study’s Fitbit component will assess (via participant tracking) whether fewer than 25% of participants need to be mailed a new Fitbit device due to device issues over the course of the study., From first day of run-in period (i.e., day 1) to last day of data collection (i.e., day 21)|Satisfaction Benchmark: Participants reporting dissatisfaction with Fitbit, During the post-study questionnaire, participants will complete the validated Delighted-Terrible Scale. Directions specify that they will be asked “about specific elements of the Fitbit smartwatch features.” Response options are feeling delighted (7), pleased (6), mostly satisfied (5), mixed- about equally satisfied and dissatisfied (4), mostly dissatisfied (3), unhappy (2), terrible (1) — OR — neutral- neither satisfied nor dissatisfied (a), or never thought about it (b). Fitbit items ask how they felt about the exercise settings on the smartwatch; how they felt about notifications they received to complete smartwatch surveys; and how they felt about the frequency and length of these surveys. The go/no-go criterion is that \<70% of participants report feeling dissatisfied (score of 1 to 3) with any of the Fitbit items., Reported at 3 weeks (i.e., post-study)|Accessibility Benchmark: Percentage of participants rating smartphone interface as accessible, The degree of accessibility of the smartphone interface for the study will also be assessed in the exit interview. Specifically, participants are asked two questions about whether they were able to read and understand questions for daily goal sessions on their smartphone. Go/no-go criteria will be that at least 51% of participants answer affirmatively for both questions., Reported at 3 weeks (i.e., post-study)|Sustainability/Feasibility Benchmark: Repeated syncing reminders, Participants are asked to keep the Fitbit app on their smartphone open in order to allow study data from the app to sync with Fitabase servers. Researchers will check Fitabase servers multiple times per day to ensure adequate syncing, and if a participant's device has not been synced for a few days, they receive a text asking them to open and sync the app. Go/no-go criteria for this benchmark are that \<25% of participants need to be sent more than one reminder to open their Fitbit app and sync their study data, as recorded by researchers in participant tracking forms., From first full day of intervention (i.e., day 8) to last day of data collection (i.e., day 21)|Satisfaction Benchmark: Participants reporting dissatisfaction with smartphone components, During the post-study questionnaire, participants will complete the validated Delighted-Terrible Scale. Directions specify that they will be asked about their experiences using their smartphone for the eMOTION Study. Response options are feeling delighted (7), pleased (6), mostly satisfied (5), mixed- about equally satisfied and dissatisfied (4), mostly dissatisfied (3), unhappy (2), terrible (1) -- OR -- neutral- neither satisfied nor dissatisfied (a), or never thought about it (b). Smartphone items ask how they felt about completing the daily goal sessions on their smartphone and Fitbit smartphone app. The go/no-go criterion is that \<70% of participants report feeling dissatisfied (score of 1 to 3) with any of the smartphone items., Reported at 3 weeks (i.e., post-study)|Accessibility Benchmark: Physical activity recommendations (affect-based goals + TYPE/CONTEXT and affect-based goals + TYPE/CONTEXT + SAVOR groups only) appropriately consider participant constraints, Participants are asked to indicate whether they have any constraints limiting their engagement in specific physical activity types or contexts as part of the baseline questionnaire. They also rate the relative importance of each of the psychological needs to them personally at baseline. For participants who are placed in the affect-based goals + TYPE/CONTEXT or affect-based goals + TYPE/CONTEXT + SAVOR groups, an algorithm produces physical activity recommendations based on their psychological needs that also considers their reported constraints. During the exit interview, participants in this group are asked whether they were able to follow the physical activity recommendations. The go/no-go criterion is that the number of constraints reported at baseline is not associated with participants' reported ability to follow activity recommendations., Assessed on date of baseline questionnaire completion and at 3 weeks (i.e., post-study)|Satisfaction Benchmark: Participants reporting dissatisfaction with physical activity recommendations (affect-based goals + TYPE/CONTEXT and affect-based goals + TYPE/CONTEXT + SAVOR groups only), During the post-study questionnaire, participants who received recommendations for the specific types or contexts of physical activity to do (i.e., were in the affect-based goals + TYPE/CONTEXT or affect-based goals + TYPE/CONTEXT + SAVOR groups) will complete the validated Delighted-Terrible Scale. They are asked how they felt about the physical activity recommendations they received.

NCT06123286 | Tart Cherry and Omega-3’s for Aromatase Inhibitor Musculoskeletal Symptoms | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06123286 | Both Tart Cherry and Omega 3 FAs have better side effect profiles compared to other commonly used medications for AIMSS, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories, steroids, and serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors. Additionally, in our clinics we often find that patients tend to be more receptive to taking a supplement as opposed to an additional medication. Further, both Tart Cherry concentrate and fish oil have beneficial properties for helping with joint stiffness in general, in addition to other health issues like insomnia. There is preliminary evidence in mouse models that when given together, these supplements may have an even greater anti-inflammatory effect than when taken separately14. Although to our knowledge, no human studies have tested this hypothesis. This study has been designed to test the hypothesis that Tart Cherry and fish oil when given in combination over a 12-week period could produce beneficial changes in joint function when compared to Tart Cherry or fish oil in isolation in an obese breast cancer population experiencing AIMSS. Secondary outcomes to be assessed include pain, functional performance, quality of life and cognition. | NO | Breast Cancer|Aromatase Inhibitor Associated Musculoskeletal Symptoms (AIMSS)|Joint Pain | DRUG: Tart Cherry|DRUG: Omega 3 FA (Fish Oil) | The primary objective is to assess changes in joint function between groups., Changes in joint symptoms will be assessed via the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC).

NCT06049420 | Lifestyle Medicine: Establishing Clinical Approaches to Chronic Disease for Rural Patients | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06049420 | Developed nations worldwide are currently enduring a health crisis, as chronic diseases continue to decrease quality of life and promote additional disease states or even death for much of the population. Rural populations are at a particular disadvantage, as they lack access to health clubs, wellness programs and similar resources that are more available in urban areas. Although pharmaceutical therapies have continued to show therapeutic advancements, the rates of disease onset and death from chronic disease has not seen similar improvements, and in fact continue to worsen. Excitingly, significant evidence has been published demonstrating an affordable, effective treatment to directly treat and prevent these chronic diseases, but few have demonstrated successful implementation of this therapy, which is improved lifestyle. Specifically, physical activity and healthy body composition are powerful therapeutics that have been demonstrated to effectively combat and prevent chronic diseases. Additionally, improving these lifestyle factors are often more effective than pharmaceutical interventions without the wide range of side effects. Unfortunately, barriers exist on multiple tiers in the practice of family medicine that demote the implementation of lifestyle medicine. To better serve patients at risk of, or suffering from chronic disease, the investigators are seeking to establish a lifestyle medicine prescription program for rural West Virginia. This program will provide patient education on the benefits of physical activity, body composition, and help patients identify strategies to implement healthy lifestyle choices that can be sustainable for the long-term. Patients will be advised on local opportunities to increase physical activity (yoga studio, martial arts, fitness facilities, aquatic center, etc.) and provided access to the facilities they are most likely to adhere to regularly. They will also be provided training on exercise techniques, equipment, and facilities to increase familiarity and comfort in these settings. | NO | Obesity|Hyperlipidemias|Polycystic Ovary Syndrome|Hypertension|Coronary Heart Disease|Heart Failure|Depression, Anxiety|Type II Diabetes|Metabolic Syndrome | BEHAVIORAL: Lifestyle counseling and coaching | Demand, initial demand for the program, 1 month|Attrition rate, Drop out rate after opting in to the intervention, 4 months|physical activity, minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity, 4 months | Blood pressure, Systolic and diastolic blood pressure (mmHg), 4 Months|Blood glucose, mg/dL, 4 Months|blood lipids, triglycerides (mg/dL), 4 Months|Glycosylated hemoglobin, A1C (percent of hemoglobin that is glycosylated), 4 Months|BMI, weight and height will be combined to report BMI in kg/m\^2, 4 Months|total cholesterol, Triglycerides, High density lipoproteins (HDL) and low density lipoproteins (LDL) will be used to determine total cholesterol., 4 Months|Self-efficacy, Exercise Self Efficacy scale – ranges from 0 (low self efficacy) to 10 (high self efficacy) These data measure individual’s confidence in his or her capacity to execute behaviors necessary to maintain an active lifestyle., 4 Months | West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine | ALL | ADULT | NA | 95 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: NA|Intervention Model: SINGLE_GROUP|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: TREATMENT | R010422CP | 2024-04 | 2025-09 | 2025-09 | 2023-09-22 | 2023-10-19 | West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine, Lewisburg, West Virginia, 24901, United States | |||||

Obesity has been linked to increased risk for certain kinds of cancer and is the second highest modifiable risk factor for cancer. It is also well documented that having a cancer diagnosis and treatment is a stressful experience. It is hoped that an addition of a 10-minute mindfulness-based stress reduction exercise to the virtual positive health habits group focused on weight management can improve wellbeing and distress.

NCT05903131 | A Behavioral Intervention to Promote Primary Prevention and Uterine Preservation in Premenopausal Women With Obesity and Endometrial Hyperplasia | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05903131 | Up to 60% of endometrial cancer cases are attributed to obesity, in part because obesity promotes development of atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH), and up to 40% of women with AEH go on to develop endometrial cancer. The increasing prevalence of obesity in premenopausal women has resulted in increasing rates of AEH in this age group. Hysterectomy with removal of the fallopian tubes and ovaries is 100% effective in preventing endometrial cancer, but this approach results in infertility. Fertility-sparing treatments exist, such as treatment with oral or intrauterine progestin, but these treatments do not work uniformly and do not combat the underlying cause of endometrial cancer, which is obesity and metabolic syndrome. Additionally, up to 41% of women on progestin eventually experience relapse of AEH or endometrial cancer. Third, many patients have insulin resistance that may worsen with progestin therapy. Thus, to improve treatment of AEH and grade 1 endometrial cancer, prevent and reverse endometrial cancer, and allow women to preserve their fertility, the investigators must integrate an effective weight loss strategy to be given with progestin treatment. It is the hypothesis that premenopausal women with AEH desire uterine preservation will be more likely to have atypia-free uterine preservation at one year if they receive progestin in combination with a behavioral weight loss intervention versus progestin plus enhanced usual care. | NO | Endometrial Hyperplasia|Grade 1 Endometrial Cancer | BEHAVIORAL: Telemedicine behavioral weight intervention|DRUG: Progestin|BEHAVIORAL: Enhanced usual care|DRUG: Levonorgestrel-releasing IUD. | Number of participants with atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH)-free biopsy, At 1 year | Time to resolution of atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH), Defined as the period of time in months/days from the first biopsy to show AEH or grade 1 endometrial cancer to the first biopsy that shows no evidence of hyperplasia or malignancy, Through completion of follow-up (estimated to be 2 years)|Time to resolution of endometrial cancer, Through completion of follow-up (estimated to be 2 years)|Atypia-free survival, -Defined as the time interval from the date of positive treatment response (as determined by biopsy) to the date of atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) recurrence.

NCT05889780 | Screening for and Responding to Food Insecurity Among Infusion Patients | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05889780 | Food insecurity impacts 1 in 8 people in the United States and 1 in 4 people receiving cancer treatment. Food insecurity is associated with poor dietary quality, adverse health conditions (e.g., Type 2 diabetes, overweight and obesity, hypertension), and worse cancer treatment outcomes. To effectively address food insecurity among people with cancer, screening and effective response programs are needed. The Food to Overcome Disparities (FOOD) program screens breast cancer patients for food insecurity and refers people who screen positive to 11 clinic pantries across New York City. In addition to clinic referrals, researchers have found the addition of monthly grocery vouchers or home grocery delivery to be even more effective at improving treatment completion rates than pantry access alone. Another innovative food security strategy, nutritious no-prep, ready-to-eat meals may also be helpful for patients given that no-prep meals reduce the time and physical demand of food preparation. Nutritious no-prep, ready-to-eat meals have been positively associated with improvements in healthy eating index (HEI) scores, fewer instances of hypoglycemia, and improved quality of life among people with food insecurity that have diabetes, but has yet to be tested among patients with cancer. People receiving cancer treatment, such as infusion services, often report fatigue and other barriers to food preparation, which make no-prep, ready-to-eat meals another potential solution to cancer-specific challenges to healthy eating. In the present study the investigators will test which evidence-based strategies are most effective and well-liked by patients and will inform the development of a comprehensive food security response program at the Harold C.

NCT05869604 | Healthy Lifestyles After Cancer for Adolescents and Young Adults: A Program to Reduce Cardiovascular Risk Factors | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05869604 | HEALTHY-AYA | There are close to 700,000 survivors of adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer (aged 15 to 39 at diagnosis) in the US. Survivorship for AYAs is often complicated by long-term and late-effects. Cardiovascular disease (CVD), in particular, is a leading cause of death for cancer survivors and is a growing public health concern for survivors diagnosed as AYAs. Risk of CVD may be associated with treatment exposures and may be potentiated by weight gain and poor health behaviors. Healthy eating and physical activity are key behaviors for weight loss and maintenance and may be protective against CVD risk, yet few AYA cancer survivors adhere to guidelines for healthy eating or activity. AYA survivors’ abilities to engage in health behaviors (i.e., healthy eating, physical activity) necessary to manage weight may also be challenged by persistent cancer-related symptoms (i.e., pain, fatigue, psychological distress). Thus, weight gain is common. Using input from AYA cancer survivors, the investigators have adapted a behavioral weight and symptom management protocol for AYA cancer survivors with obesity to create an intervention that is responsive to AYAs’ unique needs. A pilot randomized controlled trial will be conducted to examine intervention feasibility and acceptability and to examine patterns of change in outcomes including weight, body mass index, symptoms (e.g., pain, fatigue, distress) as well as other CVD risk factors, including blood pressure, cholesterol (total, HDL, LDL), HbA1c, and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk score. | NO | Cancer|Cardiovascular Diseases|Weight Management|Pain|Fatigue|Distress, Emotional|Physical Inactivity | BEHAVIORAL: HEALTHY AYA|OTHER: Education Control | Feasibility of study recruitment, Number of participants recruited over the course of 12 months., 12 months|Session attendance, Treatment feasibility will be assessed by measuring the session attendance rate for each participant., Following completion of the intervention (up to 3 months)|Participant attrition, Participant attrition will be assessed by measuring the number of participants who drop out of the study, Following completion of the intervention (up to 3 months)|Intervention acceptability: Treatment Acceptability Questionnaire, The Treatment Acceptability Questionnaire is a six-item scale assessing participants’ views of an intervention as acceptable, ethical, and effective.

NCT05848856 | The RISC Registry–Risk Informed Screening Registry | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05848856 | RISC | Chronic diseases such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes are the leading causes of death and disability in the United States. Six in ten adults have one chronic disease; 4 in 10 have two or more. These are also leading drivers of the nation’s $4.1 trillion in annual health care costs. Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death for men and women, cancer is the second largest, with breast cancer being the second largest cause of death in women. Diabetes is the 8th highest cause of death for both men and women. Routine screening, a focus on prevention, early detection, and patient engagement with proposed care plans, effective surveillance and follow up are some of the most effective ways to reduce the burden of chronic diseases across an individual’s lifetime and at the population level. Estimating dollar costs associated with non-compliance with screening and health management recommendations is complex and variable depending on the specific context, disease, and condition. But there is much evidence to indicate that a significant amount of these annual costs can be mitigated if compliance with health management recommendations increases, and health problems are prevented or detected early. Access to screening and noncompliance with health management recommendations impact the entire population, but more disparities exist in racial and ethnic minorities and in the historically underserved for cancer, obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. The overall cost of these disparities in the U.S. has been estimated at around 1.24 trillion U.S. Dollars. The RISC Registry seeks to pursue the intersection of breast cancer, metabolic, and cardiovascular risk in women and study the application of individualized multi-condition risk assessments, risk-informed or personalized screening, prevention and follow up care approaches in a broad cross section of patients. It pursues the hypothesis that these approaches accompanied by population appropriate methods of clinician and patient engagement may increase understanding and compliance with breast cancer, obesity, and metabolic/cardiovascular/cardiometabolic risk screening, surveillance and follow up recommendations by empowering women to make healthier choices. In doing so, these methods may identify ways to address disparities in screening and patient care and ultimately promote early detection or even reversal of adverse health conditions, improve overall personal health, and reduce overall health care costs. The primary focus is cancer, cardiovascular and metabolic health screening with a focus on utilization of Precision Screening.

NCT05826184 | Time Restricted Eating With or Without a Fiber Supplement for Weight Management in Pediatric Cancer Survivors | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05826184 | This study aims to address a critical gap in pediatric oncology survivorship care by exploring innovative solutions to addressing obesity and its comorbidities in pediatric cancer survivors. The majority (99%) of pediatric cancer survivors will develop severe chronic health conditions by age 50, with 96% developing at least one severe/disabling, life threating or fatal chronic health condition. Obesity, cardiovascular, and metabolic diseases are the most common treatment-related late effects among pediatric cancer survivors. Improving diet and reducing obesity has the potential to dramatically improve the quality of life and long-term health of pediatric cancer survivors. Utilization of a prebiotic fiber supplement along with TRE amy improve the gut microbiome, short-chain fatty acid synthesis, and hunger hormones to further improve weight loss with TRE and a greater decrease in cardiometabolic risk. The aims of this study are to test the safety, feasibility, and acceptability of 8-h TRE or 8-h TRE with a fiber supplement among young adult (YA) pediatric cancer survivors. The investigators further strive to examine the preliminary efficacy of TRE on body weight, body composition, glucose regulation, and cardiovascular risk markers. Data obtained will be used to inform a larger efficacy trial of TRE among adolescent and young adult pediatric cancer survivors. Given that a majority of pediatric cancer survivors will develop severe chronic health conditions by age 50, with 96% developing at least one severe/disabling, life threating or fatal chronic health condition exploring accessible nutritional strategies to improve long term health trajectory of 70,000+ AYA diagnosed with cancer each year in the United States. This study of TRE will provide important preliminary evidence of the benefits of this nutrition therapy for YA pediatric cancer survivors.

NCT05770570 | Taxi ROADmAP (Realizing Optimization Around Diet And Physical Activity) | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05770570 | The researchers will conduct ‘Taxi ROADmAP (Realizing Optimization Around Diet And Physical activity)’, which also utilizes MOST, and the same 4 obesity intervention components as in SANOS, but targets the overweight/obesity crisis in another at-risk, low socioeconomic status (SES) population, taxi and for-hire vehicle (FHV) drivers (Lyft, Uber, etc.). ROADMAP also utilizes an effectiveness- implementation hybrid type 1 design. Hybrid trials, which blend effectiveness and implementation studies, can lead to more rapid translational uptake and more effective implementation. Taxi and FHV drivers are a growing, multilingual, hard-to-reach, predominantly immigrant and minority essential worker population. There are over 750,000 licensed taxi and FHV drivers in in the U.S. and over 185,000 in New York City (NYC). They have higher rates of overweight/obese range body mass index (BMI) than New Yorkers in general (77% vs 56%) and have high rates of elevated waist circumference, sedentary behavior, poor diets, and health care services underutilization. ROADmAP will test 4 evidence- and theory-based (Social Cognitive Theory \[SCT\]) behavior change intervention components. We will use MOST to identify which of the 4 components contribute most significantly and cost-effectively to weight loss among NYC drivers recruited at workplace health fairs (HFs) and virtually. Objectives are to apply MOST to design an optimized version of a scalable, lifestyle intervention for taxi/FHV drivers, and then to conduct a mixed methods multistakeholder process evaluation to facilitate widespread intervention implementation. | NO | Overweight|Overweight and Obesity|Overweight or Obesity|Obesity|Obese | BEHAVIORAL: Counseling|BEHAVIORAL: Text Messages|BEHAVIORAL: Phone calls|BEHAVIORAL: Self-monitoring tools | Difference in participant body weight from baseline to 12 months, Efficacy of intervention is achieved when participants have weight loss with a minimum threshold of 5% of overall body weight lost Intervention components include: * Initial in-person individual diet and physical activity (PA) counseling * Thrice-weekly diet/PA text messages * Weekly telephone support * Self-monitoring tools., 12-months post-intake|Estimate the cost and incremental cost-effectiveness of the obesity intervention components, Costs associated with each component include: 1) In-person counseling: personnel time, participant travel time, text messaging services; 3) Telephone support: personnel time; 4) Self-monitoring tools: food diaries and digital scales., Up to 6 months|Feasibility of weight loss intervention for participants measured by the ROAmAP Process Evaluation Questionnaire, The ROADmAP Process Evaluation Questionnaire will be administered to all participants to gather data on implementation potential.

NCT05764330 | Weight Loss Interventions to Reduce Cancer Progression in Prostate Cancer Patients Under Active Surveillance | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05764330 | This clinical trial examines weight loss interventions in reducing cancer progression in prostate cancer patients under active surveillance. Intensive lifestyle interventions that recommend modest reductions in daily caloric intake (i.e. continuous calorie energy reduction \[CER\]) are the gold-standard for weight loss, and have been tested in cancer survivors, including prostate cancer patients. However, few interventions have been developed for low-risk prostate cancer patients on active surveillance. Intermittent fasting (IF) may be superior to CER in the context of prostate cancer progression given its dual role in weight loss and metabolic switching from the use of glucose as a fuel source to the use of fatty acids and ketone bodies. This study may help researchers determine which weight loss strategies can reduce their risk of prostate cancer recurrence, and other negative health effects of being overweight or obese. | NO | Prostate Carcinoma | PROCEDURE: Biospecimen Collection|OTHER: Dietary Intervention|OTHER: Dietary Intervention|BEHAVIORAL: Fasting | Change in Body weight, Weight will be measured using a body composition monitor., Up to 6 months|Changes in prostate cancer (PCa) progression, Will assess changes in PCa progression indicated by serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) doubling time, and biopsy tumor upgrading and/or upstaging if required clinically, between the timepoints prior and post to the intervention.

NCT05732623 | Exogenous and Endogenous Risk Factors for Early-onset Colorectal Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05732623 | DEMETRA | An increase in early-onset colorectal cancers (eoCRC), defined as a CRC before 50 years, is confirmed globally. CRC pathogenesis has been associated with several risk factors (family history, germline pathogenic variants, obesity, alcohol, physical activity, red meat, and a Western diet). Design: an international, multicenter, retrospective case-control study of prospectively enrolled patients; low-risk intervention study as it will perform a fecal occult blood test Endpoint: predictive power of a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire (SQFFQ) developed for eoCRC. Cases: Patients with a recent diagnosis of eoCRC (within 2 years from enrollment). Controls: matched by age (matching range ± 5 years) and sex. Healthy volunteers will be mainly enrolled among workers within the participating hospital center. The enrolled healthy volunteers will perform a fecal occult blood test. Variables of interest: age, sex, ethnicity, BMI at the time of eoCRC diagnosis and at 18 years old, country, tobacco smoking at the time of eoCRC diagnosis and at 18 years old, sitting time, TV-viewing time, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), waist circumference (cm), home blood pressure levels (mmHg), fasting blood glucose (mg/dl), regular consumption of aspirin/NSAID, calcium and folate supplements, oral contraceptive agents, post-menopausal hormones and years of consumptions, if the filled questionnaire reflects diet for the last 5-10 years before. Cases only: date of eoCRC diagnosis, symptoms at diagnosis, eoCRC localization, eoCRC stage, histological diagnosis, type of surgery, and date (if performed), chemotherapy and radiotherapy (if performed), vital status and duration of follow-up, family history of CRC and other cancers (uterus, ovary, stomach, small intestine, urinary tract/bladder/kidney, bile ducts, brain, pancreas, skin tumors), type of germline pathogenetic variant (if performed). Before the case-control study, three non-consecutive 24-hour Dietary Recalls (24hDRs) will validate the SQFFQ. The SQFFQ will be administered to the validation study group during three non-consecutive calls, including one non-weekday (30-minute 24-h-recall computer-aided personal interview).

NCT05687604 | Scalable TELeheaLth Cancer CARe: The STELLAR Program to Treat Cancer Risk Behaviors | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05687604 | STELLAR | The goal of this clinical trial is to improve cancer patient’s health, survival, and quality of life by dispelling risk behaviors for Northwestern Memorial Health Care (NMHC) patients who are cancer survivors. The main question\[s\] STELLAR aims to answer are: * How best to combine three behavior interventions (physical activity promotion, smoking cessation, obesity treatment) into one treatment. * Evaluate the reach of the program. We will look at the number, proportion, and representativeness of participants in terms of disease characteristics, socioeconomic status, telehealth readiness, and race/ethnicity. * Evaluate the effects of the STELLAR program relative to enhanced usual care (information provision) on cancer risk behaviors, patient care access, care quality, and communication. Participants will be provided goals related to their physical activity, smoking, and/or weight loss and asked to track their health behaviors via an app, excel file, or on paper. At baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months into the study, participants will provide survey responses and physical measurements like height and weight. Additionally, those in the Facilitated group will complete 16 telehealth sessions with study staff to discuss progress towards their study goals. Researchers will compare the Facilitated group to the Self Guided group to see if the Facilitated intervention group is able to reach more participants that enhances care only. | NO | Obesity|Smoking Cessation|Physical Inactivity | BEHAVIORAL: multiple behavior change therapy | Reach/Access, A) We will evaluate the Reach of the risk behavior screening system by assessing the number of cancer survivors exposed to EHR screening and the proportion and representativeness of those who enroll in the study and are randomized.

How Well the Cancer Care Team Communicates with Patients. This subscale asks the participant about provider communication on a 4-point scale from “never” to “always” in terms of how well the provider explained things in an easy-to-understand way, listened carefully to patient, showed respect to patient, and spent enough time with patient. 2. Availability of Interpreters. This subscale asks yes/no if the patient ever needed an interpreter for visits, and if yes, how often they received one on a 4-point scale from “never” to “always” 3. Overall Rating of Cancer Team and Cancer Care. This is a single question asking patients to rate their provider on a 1-10 scale with 1 being the worst provider possible and 10 being the best provider possible, baseline, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months|Rating of Patient-Provider Communication and Shared Decision-Making as Measured by The Interpersonal Process of Care (IPC32), The Interpersonal Process of Care (IPC32), will assess the patient’s thoughts on physician-patient interpersonal interactions. The IPC evaluates: 1.

NCT05629858 | Time Restricted Eating for the Treatment of PCOS | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05629858 | Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common cause of anovulatory infertility among young women. This syndrome is a reproductive and endocrinological disorder that affects up to 18% of reproductive-aged women. To date, the only strategy shown to reverse PCOS is sustained weight loss of 5-10%. At present, daily calorie restriction (CR) is the main diet prescribed to patients with PCOS for weight loss. However, some women find it difficult to adhere to CR because calorie intake must be vigilantly monitored every day. Considering these problems with CR, another approach that limits timing of food intake, instead of number of calories consumed, has been developed. This diet is called “time restricted eating” (TRE) and involves confining the period of food intake to 6-8 h per day. TRE allows individuals to self-select foods and eat ad libitum during a large part of the day, which greatly increases compliance to these protocols. Recent findings show that TRE significantly reduces body weight, insulin resistance, and inflammation in adults with obesity. However, no randomized controlled trials have studied the role of TRE in treating PCOS. Accordingly, this study will compare the effects of TRE vs CR in females with PCOS over 6 months on body weight, androgen markers, inflammatory markers and insulin sensitivity. Methods: A 6-month randomized, controlled, parallel-arm trial will be implemented. Females with obesity and PCOS will be randomized to 1 of 3 groups: (1) 6-h TRE (ad libitum food intake from 1-7 pm, fasting from 7pm-1pm); (2) CR (25% energy restriction daily); or (3) control group (ad libitum intake with no meal timing restrictions). | NO | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome|Obesity | OTHER: 6-h Time restricted eating (TRE)|OTHER: Calorie restriction (CR)|OTHER: Control | Change in body weight, Measured by an electronic scale, Measured at month 0 and 6 | Change in fat mass, lean mass, visceral fat mass, Measured by DXA, Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in bone mineral density, Measured by DXA, Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in waist circumference, Measured by a measuring tape, Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in Insulin sensitivity, Measured by oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in Fasting glucose, Measured by a commercial lab (Medstar, IL), Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in Fasting insulin, Measured by a commercial lab (Medstar, IL), Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in HbA1c, Measured by a commercial lab (Medstar, IL), Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in Blood pressure, Measured by a blood pressure cuff, Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in heart rate, Measured by a blood pressure cuff, Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in Plasma lipids (LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides), Measured by a commercial lab (Medstar, IL), Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in inflammatory markers (TNF-apha, IL-6, IL-10, IL-B, hs-CRP), Measured by ELISA, Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in oxidative stress (8-isoprostane), Measured by ELISA, Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in reproductive hormones (testosterone, DHEA, SHBG, androstenedione), Measured by ELISA, Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in energy and nutrient intake, Measured by 7-day food record, Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in physical activity (steps/d), Measured by pedometer, Measured at month 0 and 6|Change in mood, Measured by 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36), total score 0-100.

NCT05602194 | Studying the Effect of Levocarnitine in Protecting the Liver From Chemotherapy for Leukemia or Lymphoma | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05602194 | This phase III trial compares the effect of adding levocarnitine to standard chemotherapy vs. standard chemotherapy alone in protecting the liver in patients with leukemia or lymphoma. Asparaginase is part of the standard of care chemotherapy for the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), lymphoblastic lymphoma (LL), and mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL). However, in adolescent and young adults (AYA) ages 15-39 years, liver toxicity from asparaginase is common and often prevents delivery of planned chemotherapy, thereby potentially compromising outcomes. Some groups of people may also be at higher risk for liver damage due to the presence of fat in the liver even before starting chemotherapy. Patients who are of Japanese descent, Native Hawaiian, Hispanic or Latinx may be at greater risk for liver damage from chemotherapy for this reason. Carnitine is a naturally occurring nutrient that is part of a typical diet and is also made by the body. Carnitine is necessary for metabolism and its deficiency or absence is associated with liver and other organ damage. Levocarnitine is a drug used to provide extra carnitine. Laboratory and real-world usage of the dietary supplement levocarnitine suggests its potential to prevent or reduce liver toxicity from asparaginase. The overall goal of this study is to determine whether adding levocarnitine to standard of care chemotherapy will reduce the chance of developing severe liver damage from asparaginase chemotherapy in ALL, LL and/or MPAL patients. | NO | B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia|B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia With t(9;22)(q34.1;q11.2); BCR-ABL1|B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, BCR-ABL1-Like|Lymphoblastic Lymphoma|Mixed Phenotype Acute Leukemia|T Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia | PROCEDURE: Biospecimen Collection|DRUG: Calaspargase Pegol|DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT: Levocarnitine|DRUG: Pegaspargase|OTHER: Quality-of-Life Assessment | Incidence of conjugated hyperbilirubinemia >3 mg/dL during induction therapy, For patients assigned to arms A and B, the investigators will separately estimate the proportion of patients who experience conjugated hyperbilirubinemia \> 3mg/dL during induction chemotherapy by arm along with corresponding 95% confidence intervals., During induction therapy (up-to 35-days after initiating induction chemotherapy) | Incidence of grade >= 3 alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) elevations during induction therapy, For patients assigned to arms A and B, the investigators will separately estimate the proportion of patients who experience grade \>= 3 alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) elevations during induction chemotherapy by arm along with corresponding 95% confidence intervals., During induction therapy (up-to 35-days after initiating induction chemotherapy)|Incidence of minimal residual disease (MRD) positivity (MRD >= 0.01%), For patients assigned to arms A and B, the proportion having MRD positivity at the end of induction chemotherapy will be estimated separately by arm along with corresponding 95% confidence intervals.

NCT05542407 | ONC201 and Atezolizumab in Obesity-Driven Endometrial Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05542407 | Endometrial cancer (EC) is the fourth most common cancer in United States women, and alarmingly, the frequency and mortality from EC continues to rise, in part due to the obesity epidemic. Obese women with EC have a 6.3-fold increased risk of death from this disease, as compared to their non-obese counterparts. Patients with advanced/recurrent EC are unlikely to be cured by surgery, conventional chemotherapy (paclitaxel + carboplatin is the standard first-line treatment), radiation, or a combination of these. Thus, new treatments for EC are desperately needed as well as a better understanding of the impact of obesity on EC biology and treatment. The purpose of this study is to test the safety of a combination of treatments, atezolizumab and ONC201, given based on body weight, to treat endometrial cancer. Using the combination of atezolizumab and ONC201, has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of endometrial cancer.

NCT05515978 | Pragmatic Trial of Metformin for Glucose Intolerance or Increased BMI in Prostate Cancer Patients | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05515978 | Metformin is used widely in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. It has off-label indications for use in the prevention of diabetes and in hyperinsulinar obesity. In medical practices, the implementation of metformin for these off-label indications is variable, often at the level of the provider. Multiple retrospective investigations have also shown a clinical benefit in men with prostate cancer who are incidentally treated with metformin. This pragmatic study will test the feasibility of enrolling patients who have glucose intolerance (as defined by HbA1c of 5.7-6.4%) and/or who have increased BMI (BMI greater than or equal to 25 kg/m2) to a randomized pragmatic study of metformin plus lifestyle modification information versus lifestyle modification information only.

NCT05501899 | Use of Levocarnitine to Reduce Asparaginase Hepatotoxicity in Patients With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05501899 | Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common cancer seen in pediatric oncology. The necessary chemotherapy for pediatric and adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients with ALL includes steroids, anthracyclines, asparaginase, and vincristine. One of the most hepatotoxic chemotherapy agents is asparaginase, with treatment-associated hepatotoxicity (TAH) observed in up to 60% of patients. The frequency of TAH is increased in overweight or obese patients of Latino heritage. Carnitine is a naturally-derived compound that is produced in the liver and kidneys; it is found in certain foods, such as meat, poultry, fish, and some dairy products. Endogenous carnitine transports long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria, where they are oxidized to produce energy, and acts as scavengers of oxygen free radicals. Thus, carnitine can reduce oxidative stress and modulate inflammatory response. Levocarnitine is a supplement form of carnitine used typically in the care and management of patients with carnitine deficiency. Pediatric and AYAs with ALL will be given oral levocarnitine as a supplement during their initial phases of treatment, when the most hepatotoxic agents are administered, to determine if the incidence of liver toxicity can be reduced or eliminated. | NO | Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia|Hepatotoxicity | DRUG: Levocarnitine | Primary Outcome #1, Calculate proportion of patients who experience hepatotoxicity, as measured by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0 grade ≥ 3 elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and total and direct bilirubin., 1.5 years|Primary Outcome #2, Calculate prevalence of hepatotoxicity in patients who self-identify as Latino or non-Latino, using laboratory assessments and self-reported measures of ethnicity and/or race., 1.5 years | Secondary Outcome #1, Calculate body mass index (BMI), from recorded height and weight obtained at time of initial diagnosis and determine if there is increased risk of hepatotoxicity in patients who are overweight or obese at diagnosis as determined by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) clinical growth charts for study participants 5 to \< 20 years of age and by a BMI of ≥ 25.0 for study participants 20 to \< 30 years of age., 1.5 years|Secondary Outcome #2, Quantify disease response, using end of Induction minimal residual disease (MRD) results, where an MRD value \< 0.01 is considered "negative.", 1.5 years|Secondary Outcome #3, Calculate incidence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), using ultrasound elastography, in pediatric and AYA patients newly diagnosed with ALL., 1.5 years|Secondary Outcome #4, Calculate proportion of patients who experience other known toxicities of asparaginase treatment, as measured by CTCAE version 5.0 grade ≥ 3 hyper/hypoglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, pancreatitis, and thrombosis., 1.5 years | Children’s Hospital of Orange County | University of California, Irvine | ALL | CHILD, ADULT | EARLY_PHASE1 | 20 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: NA|Intervention Model: SINGLE_GROUP|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: SUPPORTIVE_CARE | 2110145 | 2023-03-03 | 2024-12-31 | 2024-12-31 | 2022-08-16 | 2024-08-21 | Chao Family Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of California, Irvine, Orange, California, 92868, United States|Children’s Hospital of Orange County, Orange, California, 92868, United States | ||||

NCT05398783 | A Natural History Study of Metabolic Sizing in Health and Disease | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05398783 | Background: Scientists have long used simple measures (such as height and weight) to estimate how much a person s body uses food (calories) as energy, as commonly called the metabolic rate. But metabolism varies among people with similar body sizes. Scientists now believe the old formulas for estimating metabolic rates may not work well for all people. Researchers want to find more accurate ways to measure a person s metabolism. Objective: This natural history study will examine the relationships between metabolism, body composition, and body surface area in a wide range of people. Eligibility: Healthy children and adults aged 2 years or older. Also, people aged 2 years or older with conditions that may alter metabolism. These may include diabetes, obesity, renal disease, or cancer. Design: Participants will spend 2 days and 1 night in the hospital. They will provide a medical history and answer questions about their activity levels, the foods they eat, and their lifestyle. They will also eat a special diet. Participants will undergo many tests: They will lie in a bed with a clear hood covering their head for 30 to 45 minutes to measure the gases in their breath. They will lie on a padded table for about 15 minutes while their body is scanned. They will stand on a platform while a 3D scanner measures their body. They will have a test to measure how fast an electric signal moves through their body. They will grip an instrument to measure the strength of their hands. They will drink salty water and provide blood and urine samples. Participants may be invited to return for these 2-day visits up to 8 times per year. Return visits must be at least 2 weeks apart. | NO | Metabolic Disorders|Cancer|Chronic Kidney Disease|Diabetes|Normal Physiology | Increase in R^2, Increase in R2 when measured BSA is added to equations predicting REE, Per study visit|Mean difference and limits of agreement between measured and predicted BSA, Mean difference and limits of agreement between measured BSA and predicted BSA calculated from traditional biometrics such as height and weight, Per study visit | National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) | ALL | CHILD, ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | 2000 | NIH | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | 10000617|000617-DK | 2022-10-25 | 2031-07-01 | 2031-07-01 | 2022-06-01 | 2024-12-16 | National Institutes of Health Clinical Center, Bethesda, Maryland, 20892, United States | ||||||||

The study seeks to enroll 240 overweight and obese persons who have risk factors for colorectal cancers such as a family or personal history of colorectal cancers or adenomatous polyps. The study website is www.MyBestGI.org . Participants in the study will be asked to follow one of three eating plans, as best they can, for 12 months. Study participants can choose the foods they prefer within healthy food groups. Two of the eating plans involve ten brief telephone support calls and use of a web-based app (MyBestGI App). The study primarily evaluates improvements in eating and any weight change that may result. Secondary goals for the research are to evaluate how changes in eating affect metabolic pathways. All study participants will receive written materials that encourage making room for preventive foods in your daily eating. All participants also receive the results of their own diet analyses, and results of their own measures at study visits. The measures are the Veggie Meter skin reflectance test, Ketoscan breath test, and body composition measures. Study visits also involve providing a small blood sample from the arm. Study visits are in Ann Arbor at the start of the study, and at 6 and 12 months.

NCT05265715 | A Low AGE (Advanced Glycation End-product) Dietary Intervention for Breast Cancer Survivors | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05265715 | The scientific premise for this study is the known impact of overweight/obesity on breast cancer risk and outcomes, the association between advanced glycation end-products (AGE) and high fat, highly processed foods common in Western diets, and the preclinical evidence suggesting a link between AGE and breast cancer independent of weight. The association between dietary and serum AGE in breast cancer survivors and prognosis has not been previously evaluated. However, preclinical studies suggest that AGE may represent a novel, lifestyle-linked, modifiable, prognostic biomarker, which could be targeted through lifestyle (diet and exercise) and/or pharmaceutical interventions to improve breast cancer prognosis. The proposed study will pave the way for a large scale randomized controlled trial to evaluate the impact of a low AGE diet on weight (BMI), known (IL-6 and CRP) and novel (AGE and RAGE) prognostic biomarkers, and ultimately on breast cancer prognosis. | NO | Breast Cancer | OTHER: Low AGE diet|PROCEDURE: Research blood draw | Feasibility as measured by adherence rate, * Feasibility is a defined adherence rate of at least 80% of participants enrolled * Diet adherence will be categorized by the study dietitian at the end of the study and before the results of AGEs in serum or any analysis of outcomes to avoid bias.

NCT05113485 | UCLA Breast Cancer Survivor Health Promotion Research Study | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05113485 | Pilot randomized controlled parallel group behavior change comparative effectiveness trial involves 30 breast cancer survivors interested in losing excess body fat. Both interventions include dietary + exercise prescriptions that hold promise for reducing the survivors’ risk of cancer recurrence. Both interventions are consistent with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans but the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP)-based approach focuses on weight loss through calorie restriction and increased physical activity while the Highly Microbiota-Accessible Foods (HMAFs) approach is intended to be a low-numeracy version of a Mediterranean-style diet and increased physical activity. The DPP approach is considered to be a high-numeracy intervention because it requires that consumers keep track of all calories consumed and expended per day and to endeavor to maintain a calorie deficit each day during the active weight loss phase. For both conditions, the 12 to 13-week intervention includes 2 virtual home visits, 2 virtual group education sessions and 7 telephone or Zoom-based coaching sessions by well-trained intervenors. Assessments occur at baseline and six months, with systemic inflammation (high sensitivity C-reactive protein) being the primary outcome measure and visceral fat being a secondary outcome. Other prespecified secondary outcomes include gut microbiota alpha-1 diversity, insulin resistance, HDL-cholesterol, daily count of highly microbiota-accessible foods, waist circumference, BMI, systolic blood pressure, ratio of fecal Proteobacteria to short chain fatty acid-generating bacteria and health-related quality of life. | NO | Breast Cancer | BEHAVIORAL: Diabetes Prevention Program-based lifestyle change intervention (DPP)|BEHAVIORAL: Highly Microbiota-Accessible Foods (HMAFs) intervention | High-sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (CRP), CRP is commonly used by researchers as a biomarker for systemic inflammation., Change from baseline to 6 months follow-up | Visceral fat as assessed by DXA, Visceral fat is also known as intra-abdominal fat.

NCT05050539 | Adaptive Implementation to Optimize Delivery of Obesity Prevention Practices in Early Care and Education Settings | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05050539 | “Together, We Inspire Smart Eating” (WISE) is an intervention that improves children’s diets in ECE. WISE includes 4 key evidence-based practices (EBPs): (1) hands-on exposures to fruits and vegetables, (2) role modeling by educators, (3) positive feeding practices, and (4) a mascot associated with fruits and vegetables. Standard implementation approaches to WISE result in suboptimal implementation of WISE EBPs. Additional implementation strategies are needed to increase adoption and fidelity to EBPs. To date, most studies have employed an “all-or-nothing” approach, comparing multifaceted strategies to control groups without implementation support. Thus, there is an urgent need for optimized strategies that tailor implementation support intensity to the unique challenges and limited resources of the ECE context. The overall objectives of this application are to determine the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of an adaptive implementation approach to improve adoption of the EBPs of WISE while also examining implementation mechanisms. The central hypothesis is that the addition of high-intensity strategies at sites that do not respond to low-intensity strategies will improve implementation and health outcomes. | NO | Obesity, Childhood|Nutrition Aspect of Cancer | BEHAVIORAL: Low Intensity|BEHAVIORAL: High Intensity | Fidelity to WISE Evidence-Based Practices using the WISE fidelity observational measure, Fidelity to the WISE Evidence-Based Practices at the classroom level measured with the the WISE fidelity observational measure.

NCT05048108 | Remote Assessment of Cognition, Insulin Resistance and Omega-3 Fatty Acid Biomarkers in Breast Cancer Survivors | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05048108 | RACIRO-3 | Majority of breast cancer survivors are overweight or obese at time of diagnosis, putting them at increased risk for insulin resistance and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Women with insulin resistance at time of breast cancer diagnosis often have larger tumors, later stages of cancer and worse prognosis. Additionally, chemotherapy often leads to increases in insulin resistance and cognitive impairment. Many cancer survivors experience memory and brain function decline following chemotherapy that can last for years, and insulin resistance may contribute to worse cognitive outcomes in cancer survivors. Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are anti-inflammatory nutrients that may help reduce insulin resistance and negative cognitive outcomes from cancer treatments. The purpose of this observational study with cross-sectional design is to investigate the relationship of omega-3 PUFAs with insulin resistance and cognitive function in obese breast cancer survivors. Due to the global pandemic caused by the coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19), this study will be conducted entirely remotely using electronic data collection and remote finger-stick blood sample collection. The study will aim to enroll 80 racially and ethnically diverse female breast cancer survivors (age 45-75) who are postmenopausal, and 1 to 4 years post breast cancer diagnosis. Participants will complete study questionnaires online, and some cognitive tests will be completed through zoom sessions with trained study personnel. Participants will be mailed kits with thorough instructions to complete fingerstick blood sample collections and mail them back to the research lab. Upon receipt of blood samples and completion of all study questionnaires, participation will be complete. | NO | Breast Cancer|Obesity | Determine number of participants with insulin resistance via HOMA-IR from remote dried blood spot collection, Homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) is calculated by fasting insulin (microU/L) x fasting glucose (nmol/L)/22.5.

NCT05012176 | An Episodic Future Thinking Intervention to Promote Weight Loss in Breast Cancer Survivors | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05012176 | This clinical trial evaluates the use of an Episodic Future thinking Intervention to promote weight loss in breast cancer survivors. Obesity is associated with multiple negative health sequelae in breast cancer survivors. This includes an increased risk of cancer recurrence and mortality, multiple quality of life issues, and increased risk of co-morbidities. Delay Discounting is a behavioral health economic target that refers to the “discounting” of a larger benefit in the future for a smaller, more immediate reward in the present. A high delay discounting rate is correlated with poor dietary choices and sedentary lifestyle. Episodic Future Thinking (EFT) simulates positive events that may occur in one’s future, engaging the science of prospection. EFT decreases delay discounting rate, resulting in healthier diet choices and weight reduction. However, valuation of the future may impact cancer survivors differently due to adjusted mortality perception and cancer-related stress. This study will determine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of remotely delivered (smartphone application) EFT as a behavioral intervention for weight loss in breast cancer survivors. Implementation of EFT as a complementary approach to standard lifestyle interventions could lead to improvement in weight loss, food choice, and quality of life, thereby positively impacting overall health and longevity in cancer survivors. | NO | Anatomic Stage 0 Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Anatomic Stage I Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Anatomic Stage IA Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Anatomic Stage IB Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Anatomic Stage II Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Anatomic Stage IIA Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Anatomic Stage IIB Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Anatomic Stage III Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Anatomic Stage IIIA Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Anatomic Stage IIIB Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Anatomic Stage IIIC Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Breast Ductal Carcinoma In Situ|Invasive Breast Carcinoma|Prognostic Stage 0 Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Prognostic Stage I Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Prognostic Stage IA Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Prognostic Stage IB Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Prognostic Stage II Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Prognostic Stage IIA Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Prognostic Stage IIB Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Prognostic Stage III Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Prognostic Stage IIIA Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Prognostic Stage IIIB Breast Cancer AJCC v8|Prognostic Stage IIIC Breast Cancer AJCC v8 | BEHAVIORAL: Behavioral Intervention|BEHAVIORAL: Behavioral Intervention|OTHER: Quality-of-Life Assessment|OTHER: Questionnaire Administration | Feasibility measured by Adherence, A one-sample t-test will be used to evaluate adherence (average proportion of smartphone prompts participants open and attended to during the 12-week trial recorded by the web application), Up to 12 weeks | Change in total body weight, Evaluated using a linear mixed effects model.

NCT04931017 | Metformin for Chemoprevention of Lung Cancer in Overweight or Obese Individuals at High Risk for Lung Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04931017 | This phase II trial determines the effect of metformin extended release on the risk for developing lung cancer in overweight/obese patients that are at high-risk for developing lung cancer. Metformin is widely used to treat type II diabetes and has a long history of safety and minimal side effects. At similar dosage, the drug may have potential anti-cancer activity. Metformin use has been associated with improved survival in patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma, a specific type of lung cancer, and it has also been shown to enhance immune mobilization against tumors. This trial aims to see whether metformin extended release as a preventative treatment may lower the chance of developing lung cancer, and whether it may help patients’ immune system learn (“reprogram”) to lower a certain type of immune cell (called regulatory T cells) that are linked to tumor development. | NO | Lung Carcinoma | PROCEDURE: Biopsy|PROCEDURE: Biospecimen Collection|PROCEDURE: Bronchoscopy|DRUG: Extended Release Metformin Hydrochloride|OTHER: Questionnaire Administration | PD-1 expression of pulmonary regulatory T cells (Tregs) before and after metformin extended release (ER) treatment, Change from pre- to post-metformin extended release (ER) treatment in cell surface PD-1 expression levels of pulmonary (BAL) Tregs, measured as mean fluorescent intensity (MFI).

NCT04753359 | Mediterranean Diet and Weight Loss: Targeting the Bile Acid/Gut Microbiome Axis to Reduce Colorectal Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04753359 | Bridge CRC | A Mediterranean Diet (MedDiet), a largely plant-based dietary pattern, is relevant to CRC prevention and microbial production of anti-cancer metabolites in observational studies. A MedDiet can shift BA metabolism as shown in primates and when combined with calorie restriction, shows superior adherence and weight control in humans, given its palatability. To date, no studies have tested in an RCT the effects of a MedDiet alone (MedA), WL through lifestyle intervention (WL-A) or a calorie-restricted MedDiet for WL (WL-Med) on the BA-gut microbiome axis and its relevance to CRC prevention among AAs. A multidisciplinary team combining expertise in psychology, nutrition, microbiology, molecular cell biology, computational biology, medicine and biostatistics, proposes to conduct a four-arm RCT in which 232 obese AAs, 45-75 years old complete one of the following 6-month interventions: Med-A, weight stable; WL-A, calorie restriction with no diet pattern change; WLMed; or Control. The investigators will use samples and data collected at baseline, mid-study (month-3) and post-intervention to compare the effects of the interventions on 1) Concentration and composition of circulating and fecal BAs; 2) Gut microbiota and metabolic function; and 3) Gene expression profiles of exfoliated intestinal epithelial cells. | NO | Colorectal Cancer|Diet Habit | OTHER: Med|OTHER: WL | Circulating and fecal bile acids, Absolute measurement of BAs in stool and serum obtained at baseline will be performed under the direction of Co-I Ridlon.

NCT04659837 | Training Response Inhibition to Obesogenic Foods | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04659837 | Dietary choices, and in particular, excess calorie intake leading to obesity, are strong, but reversible risk factors for cancer. For example, foods high in added sugars are low-nutrient, high calorie foods that increase the risk of cancer by promoting weight gain. As such, the reduction of sweets is consistent with American Institute for Cancer Research and the American Cancer Society dietary recommendations. Behavioral interventions to alter diet have limited long-term efficacy, most likely because eating decisions are governed by automatic neurocognitive processes that are not addressed in conventional interventions. In particular, the ability to refrain from consuming unhealthy, but widely available, palatable foods, is increasingly understood to depend on inhibitory control, i.e., the ability to cut off action tendencies that are put in motion by innate drives towards rewarding behaviors. Recent work by our team and others have demonstrated that computer-based inhibitory control trainings result in short-term, specific changes in behavior, such as reducing intake of salty snack food, chocolate, and alcoholic beverages. An automatized, home computer-based inhibitory control training offers the potential of an inexpensive and highly disseminable method of lowering cancer risk across wide swaths of the population. As such, we aim to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, mechanism of action, effectiveness and persistence of a home computer-based inhibitory control training. In particular, we hypothesize that a high-repetition training in inhibitory control will result in increased adherence to a low-sugar diet, and that effects will be mediated through improved inhibitory control. We further hypothesize that gamefying the training will improve efficacy because it will boost compliance with the daily trainings. We also hypothesize that the training will be most effective for those starting of with impaired inhibitory control, as well as those with strongest desire for palatable foods and those with strongest explicit health goals. Lastly, we aim to examine the impact of inhibitory control training on secondary outcomes, including on overall caloric intake, and on short-term weight loss. To achieve these aims, the proposed study will recruit 100 overweight and obese individuals who currently eat high-sugar diets, and who wish to improve their diets. Participants will be assigned a reduced-sugar diet for 8 weeks. After a baseline period, participants will be randomized, via a 2 x 2 factorial design, to receive 6 weeks of either inhibitory control training or a sham training, and either a gamified or non-gameified training. The 6-week intervention will consist of 15 minutes per day of home computer- based inhibitory control training, and will be followed by a 1-week booster and then 1-week follow-up period. Dietary adherence will be measured via a food frequency questionnaire and via automated 24-hour food recall. Neurocognitive variables will be assessed pre and post-training in order to test trainings’ mechanism of action, and moderation will be assessed through baseline trait measures of explicit health goals, implicit attitudes towards appetitive stimuli, body mass index, and responsivity to food cues. | NO | Inhibitory Control Training|Gameifaction | BEHAVIORAL: No-Added-Sugar Diet | Weight, 8 weeks|Sweets consumption, 8 weeks|Inhibitory control in response to high-sugar foods, Inhibitory control in response to high-sugar foods is measured via performance (i.e., speed of inhibiting prepotent responses to high-sugar food stimuli) on the daily inhibitory control training (i.e., Go/No-Go) task., 8 weeks | Compliance with daily inhibitory control training prescription, Compliance with completing the daily inhibitory control training prescription will be measured as the number of days the task was completed out of the total number of days it was prescribed., 8 weeks|Enjoyment of the daily training task, Enjoyment and acceptability of the inhibitory control training will be assessed using self-report.

Chemotherapy drugs, such as venetoclax and decitabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Glasdegib, bosutinib, ivosidenib, and enasidenib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Glasdegib inhibits the Sonic the Hedgehog gene. Venetoclax inhibits BCL-2 gene. Bosutinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that inhibits BCR-ABL gene fusion. Ivosidenib inhibits isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 gene or IDH-1. Enasidenib inhibits isocitrate dehydrogenase-2 gene or IDH-2.

NCT04569591 | Corticotrophin-releasing Hormone (CRH) Stimulation for 18F-FDG-PET Detection of Pituitary Adenoma in Cushing s Disease | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04569591 | Background: Cushing s disease is caused by a pituitary gland tumor. Patients with Cushing s disease suffer obesity, diabetes, osteoporosis, weakness, and hypertension. The cure is surgery to remove the pituitary tumor. Currently, MRI is the best way to find these tumors. But not all tumors can be seen with an MRI. Researchers hope giving the hormone CRH before a PET scan can help make these tumors more visible. Objective: To test whether giving CRH before a PET scan will help find pituitary gland tumors that might be causing Cushing s disease. Eligibility: People ages 8 and older with Cushing s disease that is caused by a pituitary gland tumor that cannot be reliably seen on MRI Design: Participants will be screened with their medical history, a physical exam, an MRI, and blood tests. Participants will have at least one hospital visit. During their time in the hospital, they will have a physical exam and a neurological exam. They will have a PET scan of the brain. A thin plastic tube will be inserted into an arm vein. A small amount of radioactive sugar and CRH will be injected through the tube. Participants will lie in a darkened room for about an hour and be asked to urinate. Then they will lie inside the scanner for about 40 minutes. After the scan, they will be asked to urinate every 2-3 hours for the rest of the day. Blood will be drawn through a needle in the arm. Participants will have surgery to remove their tumor within 3 months after the scan. Participants will then continue regular follow-up in the clinic. | NO | Cushing’s Disease|Pituitary Adenoma | DRUG: Acthrel | CRH-stimulated PET imaging demonstrates tumor in MRI-negative cases., The primary outcome measure will be defined as whether or not CRH- stimulated PET imaging demonstrates tumor in MRI-negative cases.

Therefore, perceived effectiveness of the stimuli was assessed as a proxy measure for intention to reduce sugary beverage consumption using a 5-point, 13-item Likert scale with responses ranging from Strongly Agree=5 to Strongly Disagree=1. This scale comprised 3 subscales namely (1) Message Acceptance – 2 items, (2) Argument Strength – 4 items, (3) Personalized Perceived Effectiveness – 7 items. Greater scores on this scale represented greater levels of perceived effectiveness of the message., Immediately post-intervention | Identification with the message, responses ranging from Strongly Agree=5 to Strongly Disagree=1. Two sample items from the scale are, “During viewing, I felt I could really get inside the person’s head”, and “At key moments in the video, I felt I knew exactly what they were going through”. Greater scores on this scale represent greater degree of identification with the character in the video., Immediately post-intervention|Activation of social justice values, Activation of social justice values was measured using a 5-point, 2-item Likert scale with responses ranging from Strongly Agree=5 to Strongly Disagree=1. The two items are, “The message made me think that when I choose to eat healthy, I’m helping to make the world a better place” and “The message made me think that when I eat healthy, I’m doing my part to protect people who are being manipulated by sugary beverage companies”. Greater scores on this scale represent greater levels of activation of social justice values., Immediately post-intervention|Sugary beverage related media literacy, Sugary beverage related media literacy was measured using a 5-point, 8-item Likert scale with responses ranging from Strongly Agree=5 to Strongly Disagree=1. This scale measured how much the participants understood the ways in which sugary beverage industry used media to influence and manipulate their sugary beverage consumption behaviors. Some sample items are as follows: “Certain sugary drink brands are designed to appeal to people like me”, “Sugary drink ads show a healthy lifestyle to make people forget about the health risks, such as weight gain and diabetes” and “Sugary drink ads link drinking these beverages to things people want, like love, good looks, and power”. Greater scores on this scale represent greater levels of sugary beverage media literacy., Pre-test and Immediately post-intervention|Public health literacy, Public health literacy is defined here as an understanding of the social determinants of health. This was measured using a 5-point and 7-item Likert scale with responses ranging from Strongly Agree=5 to Strongly Disagree=1. The seven items measured opinions about how much different external factors affect health because these best reflected an understanding of the social determinants of health: (1) money, (2) education, (3) safe and affordable housing, (4) early childhood experiences, and (5) government policies and programs (6) lifestyle choices and (7) consequences of system failure on the under-resourced. Greater scores on this scale represented greater levels of public health literacy., Pre-test and Immediately post-intervention|Empowerment, Empowerment to engage in civic action was measured using a two-item index that assessed the perceived effectiveness of engaging in civic actions. Each question was a 4-point Likert item with responses ranging from “Very Effective=4” to “Very Ineffective=1”. The two items were as follows, “How effective would it be to boycott sugary beverages as a way to convince corporations to stop pushing sugar to my community?” and “How effective would it be to use social media to convince corporations to stop pushing sugar to vulnerable groups?”. Greater scores on this index represented greater levels of efficacy to engage in civic action., Pre-test and Immediately post-intervention|Beverage knowledge, Knowledge increases self-efficacy and empowers people to make better health choices for themselves and knowledge of the negative consequences of a given health behavior increases the intention to reduce that behavior. Therefore, better knowledge of the negative consequences of sugary beverage consumption directly impacts both individual level sugary beverage consumption as well as social level psychological empowerment to advocate for reduction in sugary beverage consumption at the community level. A sugary beverage knowledge scale comprised 6 true or false items adapted from multiple studies. The statements were as follows: Excessive sugar consumption causes, (1) health problems (2) weight gain (3) dental caries (4) diabetes (5) cancer and (6) heart disease”. Greater scores on this scale represented greater levels of sugary beverage knowledge., Pre-test and Immediately post-intervention|Engagement, Engagement with the message was assessed with 2 items from the Narrative Transportation Scale (Green et al.)., Immediately post-intervention|Similarity, Perceived similarity of the participant with the main character (poet/speaker) in the video was assessed with a 2-item scale adapted from Cohen and colleagues (2018)., Immediately post-intervention|Elaboration, Elaboration of the message arguments was assessed using a 4-point scale created by Kahlor and colleagues (2003) and a 3-point sugar-specific elaboration scale created by Dixon and colleagues (2015)., Immediately post-intervention | University of California, Merced | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | ALL | ADULT | NA | 881 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: PREVENTION | K01CA190659|K01CA190659 | 2019-03-25 | 2020-12-25 | 2022-12-25 | 2020-04-20 | 2023-05-09 | University of California Merced SONA System (Online Platform), Merced, California, 95343, United States | ||||
NCT04331717 | Bariatric Arterial Embolization for Men Starting Hormones for Prostate Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04331717 | BASH-PC | The standard of care for obese men starting Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is physician based dietary and exercise counseling. Interventions to lessen the harmful effects of ADT are needed yet have been limited. Exercise is one strategy that has been attempted however there is conflicting data as to whether or not exercise effectively improves body mass, results in sustained weight loss, improvements in metabolic risk profiles including glucose tolerance and lipid profiles in men starting ADT, or has any effect of progression of cancer. Dietary interventions have been attempted without clear improvement in weight, metabolic factors, quality of life or cancer progression. Bariatric arterial embolization (BAE), given it results in weight loss in obese men and women without cancer, may be able to stave off the harmful side effects of ADT by inducing weight loss. Therefore, the investigators hypothesize that Bariatric Arterial embolization (BAE), done prior to initiation of ADT, will mitigate the weight gain and metabolic side effects associated with ADT, by inducing weight loss of at least 5% in obese men with biochemical recurrent prostate cancer starting ADT. The primary objective is to determine if BAE, done prior to ADT initiation in obese men (with obesity related comorbid condition) with biochemically recurrent prostate cancer, can induce 5% or greater weight loss at 6 months. | NO | Prostate Adenocarcinoma|Obesity, Morbid | DEVICE: Bead Block 300-500 um|BEHAVIORAL: Weight Management|DRUG: Lupron | Number of participants who experience at least 5 percent weight loss, Number of participants who experience at least 5 percent weight loss at 6 months after BAE., At 6 months | Number of adverse events, Number of adverse events will be assessed to determine if there are any increased adverse events in men with prostate cancer undergoing BAE., Up to 6 months|Change in Blood Pressure, Blood pressure (mmHg) will be assessed for changes over the specified time points., Baseline, weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 36 and 48|Change in Respiratory Rate, Respiratory rate in breaths per minute will be assessed for changes over the specified time points., Baseline, weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 36 and 48|Change in Oxygen saturation, Oxygen saturation (percentage) will be assessed for changes over the specified time points., Baseline, weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 36 and 48 | Time to disease progression, The amount of Time (months) till prostate-specific antigen (PSA) progression which will be assessed by PSA blood test at screening, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 36 weeks, and 48 weeks.

NCT04290299 | Endometrial Cancer Conservative Treatment (E.C.Co). A Multicentre Archive | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04290299 | Approximately one fourth of cases of endometrial cancer (EC) are diagnosed in premenopausal women, of whom approximately 40% wish to preserve their fertility. When arising in young women, EC usually presents with favorable prognostic features, as a focal, well differentiated endometrioid tumor, with minimal or absent myometrial invasion. This profile corresponds to the Type 1 EC, which correlates with the estrogen/progesterone receptor positive (ER+/PR+) pattern. On the other hand, these patients frequently present with clinical signs of a hyperestrogenism (chronic anovulation, infertility, obesity). Primary progestin therapy has been demonstrated to be effective in early well differentiated tumors and in poor operative candidates with response rates ranging from 58-100%.Currently, the therapeutic approach to an early stage EC consists of a staging laparotomy/laparoscopy, including a total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (TAH-BSO), peritoneal washings, and lymphadenectomy (pelvic and aortic), depending on the pathological risk profile pre- and intraoperatively determined. Therefore, the current standard of surgical approach is preclusive of fertility. The worldwide experience and data on conservative management of EC are, however, still limited. Most of reports based on cases retrospectively collected, harboring potential methodological bias, using different treatments and drugs, and with insufficient follow-up. Some systematic reviews have been published in the last decade, trying to summarize the literature data. Therapeutic results seem to be promising with a regression rate of approximately 75% and relapse occurring in 25-40% of cases, with anecdotical reports of deaths of disease (DOD). The fertility outcome was, however, not satisfying with about 30% pregnancy rate in patients attempting to conceive, and an overall low rate of assisted reproductive techniques (ART) despite the subfertile clinical profile.Therefore, there is a need for a prospective, multicentre cooperative project able to systematically collect data from consecutive patients treated according to defined (not necessarily identical) protocols, concerning the oncological, as well as, the obstetrical outcomes. Moreover, this project could represent the “template” in which a pretreatment fertility counseling, psychological support, and definitive surgery are routinely included according to shared criteria. | NO | Endometrial Cancer | OTHER: Data collection | Proportion of complete regression, 10 years|Duration of response, 10 years|Frequency of relapse, 10 years|Pattern of relapse, 10 years|Frequency of metachronous ovarian cancer, 10 years|Tumor-related deaths, 10 years | Treatment related morbidity, 10 years|Frequency of spontaneous pregnancies, 10 years|Frequency of pregnancies after ART, 10 years|Frequency of residual disease on definitive surgical specimens, 10 years | National Cancer Institute, Naples | FEMALE | ADULT | 100 | OTHER | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | 13/15 oss | 2015-09-15 | 2025-02-01 | 2025-04-08 | 2020-02-28 | 2021-10-13 | Cooperative Ovarian Cancer Group (COGI), Stanford, California, United States|ANZGOG – Australia and New Zealand Gynecological Oncology Group, Sydney, Australia|AGO-AUST Arbeitsgemeinschaft Gynaekologische Onkologie, Vienna, Austria|EORTC – European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer, Brussels, Belgium|NCIC Clinical Trials Group (Canadian Cancer Society Research Institute), Ottawa, Canada|PMHC (Princess Margaret Hospital Consortium), Toronto, Canada|SGOG (Shanghai Gynecologic Oncology Group), Shangai, China|NSGO (Nordic Society of Gynecologic Oncology), Copenhagen, Denmark|GINECO – Group d’Investigateurs Nationaux pour l’Etude des Cancers Ovariens, Paris, France|AGO-De Arbeitsgemeinschaft Gynaekologische Onkologie Studiengruppe Ovarialkarzinom, Berlin, Germany|NOGGO (Nord-Ostdeutsche Gesellschaft für Gynäkologische Onkologie), Berlin, Germany|ICORG – Ireland Cooperative Oncology Research Group, Dublin, Ireland|MITO (Multicenter Italian Trials in Ovarian cancer and gynecologic malignancies), Naples, Italy|GOTIC – Gynecologic Oncology Trial and Investigation Consortium, Katō, Japan|JGOG – Japanese Gynecologic Oncology Group, Tokyo, Japan|KGOG – Korean Gynecologic Oncology Group, Seul, Korea, Republic of|DGOG – Dutch Gynecologic Oncology Group, Amsterdam, Netherlands|GEICO – Grupo Espanol de Investigacion en Cancer de Ovario, Madrid, Spain|SGCTG (Scottish Gynaecological Cancer Trials Group), Edinburgh, United Kingdom | ||||||

NCT04170335 | Effects of Bariatric Surgery on Breast Density Improvement and Impact on Breast Cancer Risk in Severe Obese Patients | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04170335 | Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women in the US, and obese women have a 20% to 40% increase in the risk of developing breast cancer compared with normal-weight women. Bariatric surgery is now considered the first line option for weight loss management in morbidly obese patients with failure of medical treatment. There is strong evidence that in early stages of cancer the breast undergoes inflammatory and subsequently density changes that are observable in mammography. The aforementioned alterations have been suggested to be magnified by obesity, potentially due to its pro-inflammatory state. The investigators hypothesized that rapid weight loss following bariatric surgery and henceforth the reduction of inflammatory stress in the breast tissue could potentially have a positive effect in improving breast density and consequently, reducing the risk of breast cancer. In this order of ideas, with this study, the investigators aim to evaluate how breast density is modified after bariatric surgery, and how it impacts the risk of developing breast cancer using The Breast Cancer Surveillance Consortium (BCSC) risk score and calculator in our population. | NO | Breast Cancer|Morbid Obesity|Bariatric Surgery Candidate | PROCEDURE: Bariatric surgery | Mammogram findings before and after intervention: BI-RADS, Mammogram findings according to the BI-RADS® breast density score (radiologic assessment of the density of breast tissue, 12 months|Mammogram findings before and after intervention:LIBRA, Mammogram findings according to the The LIBRA (Laboratory for Individualized Breast Radiodensity Assessment) software, 12 months|Inflammatory markers before and after intervention: C-reactive protein, Serum measurements of Inflammatory marker including C-reactive protein (CRP), 12 months|Inflammatory markers before and after intervention: Interleukin-6, Serum measurements of Inflammatory marker including Interleukin-6 (IL-6), 12 months|Inflammatory markers before and after intervention: Insulin Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1), Serum measurements of Inflammatory marker including Insulin Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1), 12 months|Inflammatory markers before and after intervention: Tumor Necrosis, Serum measurements of Inflammatory marker including Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF), 12 months|Breast cancer risk calculation, Breast cancer risk calculation using The Breast Cancer Surveillance Consortium (BCSC) Risk Calculator, 12 months|Biometric measurements: weight, Weight will be assessed before surgery and at one year after surgery., 12 months|Biometric measurements: Height, Height will be assessed before surgery and at one year after surgery., 12 months|Biometric measurements: Body mass index, Body mass index will be assessed before surgery and at one year after surgery., 12 months|Biometric measurements: Waist circumference., Waist circumference. will be assessed before surgery and at one year after surgery., 12 months | The Cleveland Clinic | FEMALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | 0 | OTHER | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | FLA 18-057 | 2021-02-22 | 2023-12-01 | 2023-12-31 | 2019-11-20 | 2023-09-15 | Cleveland Clinic Florida, Weston, Florida, 33331, United States | |||||||

NCT04117438 | Tell us Your Food Story | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04117438 | In 2017, it is estimated that 318,590 Americans, men and women, will be diagnosed with breast cancer (American Cancer Society, 13). It was predicted in the 1970s that 1 in 11 Americans would be diagnosed with breast cancer, currently, it is 1 in 8 people. A person is twice as likely to be diagnosed with breast cancer if they have one first-degree female with a diagnosis, 3-4 times if there is more than one first-degree female relative with a diagnosis. Reasons for this increase in breast cancer diagnoses are that people are living longer, changes in reproductive patterns, increases or decreases in menopausal hormone use, increased numbers of detection through screening including genetic testing, and the rising prevalence of obesity (American Cancer Society). The purpose of this study is to better understand how a diagnosis of breast cancer supports change in diet and their food story.

NCT04073706 | Sentinel Node Biopsy in Endometrial Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04073706 | ENDO-3 | Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynaecological cancer. Current treatment of EC typically includes removal of the uterus and to determine the extent of the disease (removal of fallopian tubes, ovaries \& if required a lymph node dissection (surgical staging)). While lymph node dissection may be valuable to guide the need for adjuvant treatment (chemo or radiotherapy) after surgery, it has been a topic of controversy for the last 30 years. In some patients it causes morbidity, specifically lymphoedema. This recently has been replaced with sentinel node biopsy (SNB). It requires an injection of a dye into the cervix with specific equipment \& surgical dissection of the lymph node in which the dye first becomes visible. Despite this promising proposition \& similar to a lymph node dissection, the value to patients, cost effectiveness \& potential harms (e.g. lymphedema) of SNB compared to no-node dissection in EC has never been established. Aim: determine the value of SNB for patients, the healthcare system and exclude detriment to patients using a randomised approach 1:1. Stage 1 – 444 patients. Stage 2 additional 316 patients. Primary Outcome Stage 1: Proportion of participants returning to usual daily activities at 12 months from surgery using the EQ-5D which will determine when women in both groups can return to their usual activities. Primary Outcome Stage 2: Treatment non-inferiority as evaluated by disease-free survival status at 4.5 years post-surgery, as measured by the time interval between the date of randomisation and date of first recurrence. Confirmation of recurrent disease will be ascertained through clinical assessment, radiological work-up and/or histological results. | NO | Endometrial Cancer Stage I|Sentinel Lymph Node|Surgery | PROCEDURE: TH BSO with SNB Note: If participants (≤45yo), Grade 1 endometrial adenocarcinoma with myometrial invasion <50%, wish to retain their ovaries a BSO may be omitted|PROCEDURE: TH BSO without retroperitoneal node dissection Note: If participants (≤45yo), Grade 1 endometrial adenocarcinoma with myometrial invasion <50%, wish to retain their ovaries a BSO may be omitted | Stage 1: Return to usual activities, Proportion of participants returning to usual daily activities at 12 months from surgery using the EQ-5D which will determine when women in both groups can return to their usual activities., 12 months from surgery|Stage 2: Disease Free Survival, Compare disease-free survival for participants randomised to receive hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy with SNB compared to participants randomised to hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy without retroperitoneal node dissection, 4.5 years from surgery | Cost Effectiveness using QALYs using EuroQoL-5D (EQ-5D) Questionnaire, An assessment will be performed on the cost-effectiveness of TH + SNB relative to TH alone, calculated as the incremental cost per unit of improvement in functional outcome, measured in terms of the primary outcome. This will assess how much more money the proposed intervention will cost the health system and society, and whether this represents a sound investment in terms of the improvement in quality of life. We will also measure the quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) gained with the intervention and use this to undertake a cost-utility analysis.

These will also be adjudicated by an independent committee to ensure accuracy of documented recurrence, 4.5 years from surgery|Impact of body composition (sarcopenia) on surgical complications, recovery and overall survival, Body mass measures are practical \& sensitive for predicting health risks \& outcomes. Sarcopenia is defined as loss of skeletal muscle mass \& strength. It’s been found to be associated with procedure-related morbidity, survival in cancer patients and increased use of healthcare. The concurrent appearance of low muscle mass with high adiposity (sarcopenic obesity) is common in people with chronic diseases. The trial will determine the role sarcopenia has on participants pre-operatively (via CT images \& Bioimpedance Spectroscopy (BIS – if available at site) \& postoperatively using the BIS in regard to survival in gynaecological malignancies, if it is a predictive factor for treatment adverse events \& participants tolerability of treatment \& compare diagnostic methods to determine medical fitness for surgery. BIS sends non-detectable electrical currents, at a range of frequencies through the body allowing precise measurement \& analysis of impedance to currents by extracellular fluid, 4.5 years from surgery|Impact of frailty on surgical complications, recovery and overall survival, It has been reported consistently that frailty has a significant impact on the occurrence of adverse postoperative outcomes. Therefore, measuring frailty is important to estimate risks, determine the best treatment options, and to aid diagnosis and care planning. Frailty will be measured prior to surgery suing the validated tool – Frailty Phenotype. This may determine the impact frailty has on survival, quality of life, lymphedema, peri-, intra- and postoperative outcomes, 4.5 years from surgery|Follow-Up Strategies, Current institutional \& clinical guidelines suggest patients need to be seen at regular follow up visits. The risk of developing a recurrence is higher within the initial period after surgery \& the majority of recurrences develop within those first 3 years. Participants will ideally be seen 3 monthly for the first 3 years \& 6 monthly until 4.5 years. The objective of follow up is that local recurrences from endometrial cancer are potentially curable. It helps to diagnose local recurrences as early as possible so that they are amenable for curative or effective palliative management. We will compare these clinical findings to a symptom checklist that will be completed by participants every 3 months from surgery until 4.5 years. This records patient reported symptoms that may indicate a recurrence. Comparing these findings should determine effective follow up strategies for this group of patients., 4.5 years from surgery | Queensland Centre for Gynaecological Cancer | The University of Queensland | FEMALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | PHASE3 | 760 | OTHER_GOV | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: TREATMENT | ENDO-3 | 2021-01-18 | 2031-01 | 2031-01 | 2019-08-29 | 2024-08-28 | Houston Methodist Hospital, Houston, Texas, 77030, United States|Chris O’Brien Lifehouse, Camperdown, New South Wales, 2050, Australia|Liverpool Hospital, Liverpool, New South Wales, 2170, Australia|The Wesley Hospital, Auchenflower, Queensland, 4066, Australia|Buderim Private Hospital, Buderim, Queensland, 4556, Australia|North West Private Hospital, Everton Park, Queensland, 4053, Australia|Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital, Herston, Queensland, 4029, Australia|Mater Hospital, South Brisbane, Queensland, 4101, Australia|Gold Coast University Hospital, Southport, Queensland, 4215, Australia|St Andrews War Memorial Hospital, Spring Hill, Queensland, 4000, Australia|Royal Hobart Hospital, Hobart, Tasmania, 7000, Australia|Mercy Hospital for Women, Heidelberg, Victoria, 3084, Australia|Royal Women’s Hospital, Parkville, Victoria, 3052, Australia|Hospital de Base, São José Do Rio Preto, Sao Paulo, 15090-000, Brazil|Tata Medical Center, Kolkata, Delhi, India|Azienda Sanitaria Universitaria Friuli Centrale (ASUFC), Udine, Via Pozzuolo, 33100, Italy|National University Hospital and National University Cancer Institute, Singapore, NUH Zone B, 119074, Singapore | |||

NCT04063410 | Evaluation of Perforator Phase Contrast Angiography in Developing Surgery Plans for Patients With Breast Cancer Undergoing Breast Reconstruction With Free-Flap Methods After Mastectomy | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04063410 | This phase II trial studies how well an imaging technique called perforator phase contrast angiography (pPCA) works in developing surgery plans for patients with breast cancer undergoing breast reconstruction after breast removal (mastectomy) using abdominal-based free flap methods. Free flaps are units of tissue transferred from one area of the body to another with an intact blood supply. pPCA uses magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to create images of blood vessels inside the body. Using pPCA may help doctors develop better surgical plans for patients with breast cancer undergoing post-mastectomy reconstruction surgery with free flap methods. | NO | Mammoplasty Patient | PROCEDURE: Angiography|PROCEDURE: MRI-Based Angiogram|OTHER: Quality-of-Life Assessment | Occurrence rate of surgical plan scenarios, When all participating plastic surgeons reach a consensus decision on the final surgical plan after jointly reviewing the perforator phase contrast angiography (pPCA)-based and contrast-enhanced computed (CTA) based preliminary plans, one of four scenarios may occur: I. The pPCA-based and CTA-based plans are identical. Both are accepted as the final plan; II. There is substantial discrepancy between the two preliminary plans. The pPCA-based plan is eventually accepted as the final plan; III. There is substantial discrepancy between the two preliminary plans. The CTA-based plan is eventually accepted as the final plan; IV. There is substantial discrepancy between the two preliminary plans, but neither the pPCA-based plan nor the CTA-based plan is deemed acceptable.

NCT03827343 | Retrospective Study of Immunotherapy Related Toxicities and Factors Impacting Outcomes in Children and Adults With Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT03827343 | Immunotherapy is changing the landscape of cancer therapy. Particularly unique to immunotherapy is the toxicity profile, which differs from chemotherapy-based strategies and can be associated with inflammatory responses and/or autoimmune type reactions resulting from activation of the immune system. Referred to as immune related adverse events (irAEs), these adverse events may require systemic immunosuppression or have other consequences and present unique management challenges. Specific to CAR T-cell and other adoptive cell therapies is the constellation of symptoms referred to as cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which can range in severity from mild to severe, and can require both cytokine directed blockade and/or systemic immunosuppression to ameliorate the side effects. While side effects may be unique to each individual immunotherapy, and may also be patient specific, cumulative experience will help to inform toxicity profiles and improve management of side effects and overall outcomes. Given the number of immunotherapeutic approaches at the NCI, the primary goal of this protocol is to facilitate retrospective chart review of various immunotherapy trials at the NCI used in the treatment of cancer to comprehensively study toxicity profiles. This study will not involve the use of specimens or participant contact. All data that is needed has already been collected on the individual treatment protocols and is available in CRIS records or protocol specific databases. Data will only be collected from treatment protocols where the PI has given permission for use of the data on the trial the subject was enrolled on.

NCT03694834 | Window of Opportunity Pilot Study of Pembrolizumab in Obesity-driven Endometrial Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT03694834 | Programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) inhibitor treatment may benefit patients with endometrial cancer (EC) based on the following observations: 1) an overwhelming presence of PD-1 in ECs; 2) the well-known effect of obesity which activates pro-inflammatory white blood cells and promotes the development of ECs; and 3) the high prevalence of a specific gene pattern (ie, microsatellite instability hypermutated \[MSI high\]) among ECs that may be particularly sensitive to this class of drugs. To identify potential biomarkers of response to PD-1 inhibitors in EC, we will conduct a window of opportunity study of pembrolizumab in 20 patients with clinical stage 1, grade 3 EC, encompassing endometrioid, serous and clear cell histologies. Eligible patients will undergo a research biopsy for collection of fresh tissue at the time of enrollment, in addition to the routinely performed endometrial biopsy that led to the diagnosis of their cancer. Patients will receive a single dose of pembrolizumab (200 mg IV) prior to undergoing their scheduled hysterectomy with surgical staging three weeks later. As per standard of care, adjuvant chemotherapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin will be recommended after hysterectomy/surgical staging for women with endometrioid tumors and stage III disease or women with serous/clear cell tumors at all stages of disease. However, in this study pembrolizumab will be added to adjuvant paclitaxel and carboplatin for EC. Pre-treatment endometrial biopsy specimens (fresh frozen tissue and formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE)) and a post-treatment hysterectomy specimen (fresh frozen tissue and FFPE) will be collected for translational studies.

NCT03655223 | Early Check: Expanded Screening in Newborns | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT03655223 | Early Check provides voluntary screening of newborns for a selected panel of conditions. The study has three main objectives: 1) develop and implement an approach to identify affected infants, 2) address the impact on infants and families who screen positive, and 3) evaluate the Early Check program. The Early Check screening will lead to earlier identification of newborns with rare health conditions in addition to providing important data on the implementation of this model program. Early diagnosis may result in health and development benefits for the newborns. Infants who have newborn screening in North Carolina will be eligible to participate, equating to over 120,000 eligible infants a year. Over 95% of participants are expected to screen negative. Newborns who screen positive and their parents are invited to additional research activities and services. Parents can enroll eligible newborns on the Early Check electronic Research Portal. Screening tests are conducted on residual blood from existing newborn screening dried blood spots. Confirmatory testing is provided free-of-charge for infants who screen positive, and carrier testing is provided to mothers of infants with fragile X. Affected newborns have a physical and developmental evaluation. Their parents have genetic counseling and are invited to participate in surveys and interviews. Ongoing evaluation of the program includes additional parent interviews. | NO | Spinal Muscular Atrophy|Fragile X Syndrome|Fragile X – Premutation|Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy|Hyperinsulinemic

NCT03644524 | Heat Therapy and Cardiometabolic Health in Obese Women | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT03644524 | CMH | Traditional medical treatments are often based on research done exclusively in males, and recent research efforts in the physiology community have highlighted critical sex differences in disease presentation and progression. For example, the relative risk of fatal heart disease is 50% greater in obese, diabetic women as compared to their male counterparts, and women appear to respond differently to lifestyle interventions such as exercise compared with men. Chronic passive heat exposure (hot tub use) provides alternative or supplemental therapeutic potential for improving cardiovascular and metabolic health in obese women. In addition, passive heat exposure may offer specific cellular protection from stresses like a lack of blood flow (ischemia), which is the primary cause of fatal coronary heart disease. This study is investigating the possible cardiovascular and metabolic health benefits of chronic passive heat exposure, and whether regular hot tub use (3-4 days per week for 8-10 weeks) may reduce obese womens’ cardiometabolic risk. The investigators are examining cardiovascular health through blood pressure, blood vessel stiffness, sympathetic (‘fight or flight’) activity, and responsiveness to stresses like increased or decreased blood flow. The investigators are also examining metabolic health through an oral glucose tolerance test and a subcutaneous fat biopsy. The goal of this research is to develop a therapy targeted toward the specific health needs and complications of obese women, in an effort to improve cardiovascular and metabolic health and provide therapeutic alternatives in this high-risk population. | NO | Obesity|Polycystic Ovary Syndrome|Prehypertension|PreDiabetes|Cardiovascular Risk Factor|Metabolic Syndrome | BEHAVIORAL: Heat therapy | systolic blood pressure, Resting supine blood pressure, measured in triplicate with median recorded, through study completion, an average of 10 weeks|diastolic blood pressure, Resting supine blood pressure, measured in triplicate with median recorded, through study completion, an average of 10 weeks|oral glucose tolerance test, glucose and insulin responses to a 75-g, 2-hr oral glucose tolerance test after a 12+hr fast, through study completion, an average of 10 weeks | muscle sympathetic nerve activity burst frequency, recording of sympathetic nerve traffic during supine rest, quantified as burst count per minute, through study completion, an average of 10 weeks|arterial wall thickness (carotid), intimal thickness of common carotid artery assessed using doppler ultrasonography, through study completion, an average of 10 weeks|arterial wall thickness (femoral), intimal thickness of superficial femoral artery assessed using doppler ultrasonography, through study completion, an average of 10 weeks|dynamic arterial compliance (carotid), arterial compliance of common carotid artery measured using ultrasonography, through study completion, an average of 10 weeks|dynamic arterial compliance (femoral), arterial compliance of superficial femoral artery measured using ultrasonography, through study completion, an average of 10 weeks|flow mediated dilation, flow-mediated dilation of brachial artery, expressed as % change in diameter.

NCT03548948 | Obesity, Iron Regulation and Colorectal Cancer Risk | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT03548948 | Obesity is an independent risk factor for colorectal cancer (CRC) although the underlying mechanisms have not been elucidated. Dietary nutrients play a key role in both the prevention and promotion of CRC. While iron is an essential nutrient, excess iron is associated with carcinogenesis. Unlike the systemic compartment, the intestinal lumen lacks an efficient system to regulate iron. In conditions when dietary iron malabsorption and intestinal inflammation co-exist, greater luminal iron is associated with increased intestinal inflammation and a shift in the gut microbiota to more pro-inflammatory strains. However, treatments designed to reduce luminal, including diet restriction and chelation, are associated with lower intestinal inflammation and the colonization of protective gut microbes. Obesity is associated with inflammation-induced, hepcidin-mediated, iron metabolism dysfunction characterized by iron deficiency and dietary iron malabsorption. Obesity is also linked to intestinal inflammation. Currently, there is a fundamental gap in understanding how altered iron metabolism impacts CRC risk in obesity. The investigator’s objective is to conduct a crossover controlled feeding trial of: 1) a “Typical American” diet with “high” heme/non-heme iron”, 2) a “Typical American” diet with “low” iron, and 3) a Mediterranean diet with “high” non heme iron and examine effects on colonic and systemic inflammation and the gut microbiome. | NO | Colon Inflammation|Iron Malabsorption|Obesity|Diet Modification | OTHER: High heme iron diet|OTHER: Low iron diet|OTHER: Plant-based high non-heme iron diet | Change in colonic inflammation, Fecal calprotectin, a proxy for colon tissue inflammation, will be measured from stool an calprotectin immunoassay, Baseline and post-diet (day 22) for each of the three 3-week diets | Change in systemic inflammation, Circulating C-reactive protein, Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a) will be measured from serum using immunoassays., Baseline and post-diet (day 22) for each of the three 3-week diets|Change in stool microbial community profile at the phylum and genus level, Stool samples to analyze the composition of the microbiota, extracted bacterial genomic DNA will be used as a template for polymerase chain reactions targeting the V4 variable regions of the 16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid gene.

NCT03538665 | The DETECT Study: Discovery and Evaluation of Testing for Endometrial and Ovarian Cancer in Tampons | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT03538665 | DETECT | BACKGROUND: Endometrial cancer is a common and deadly cancer for women. It is getting more common and deadly because risk factors like age and obesity are increasing. Also, this cancer is becoming more common and deadly for black women than white women. Researchers want to find better ways to take samples and test them for this cancer. They want to study this for a racially diverse population. One way to take samples might be from a tampon. If identified early, endometrial cancer can be highly curable; however, the earliest stages may be asymptomatic, and clinical symptoms are often missed. Combining sensitive molecular testing approaches with non-invasive sampling techniques may to lead to the development of novel endometrial cancer early detection approaches with the potential to overcome disparities in access to care and time to diagnosis and treatment. In contrast to endometrial cancer, ovarian cancer is typically detected at advanced stages with poor survival since symptoms manifest only late in the disease process and are very unspecific. Racial disparities in ovarian cancer incidence and mortality are also much less pronounced. Racial disparities can manifest particularly when screening, symptom appraisal and early detection, and effective treatment interventions have important roles in determining outcomes of cancers. OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study is to see if it is possible and acceptable for individuals to have an endometrial or ovarian sample collected by using a tampon placed in the vagina. The investigators will look at DNA in these samples. DNA is the genetic information participants inherited from their parents. The investigators want to see whether the investigators can find changes in DNA and proteins related to endometrial or ovarian cancer from tampon samples. Tests on the samples from tampons will help to understand endometrial and ovarian cancer. The samples collected during this study will be used for research related to both endometrial and ovarian cancer and non-cancer conditions. ELIGIBILITY: Women at least ≥18 years undergoing clinically-indicated hysterectomy and/or bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for endometrial or ovarian cancer, cancer precursors, or benign conditions. DESIGN: 1. Participants will put a tampon in their vagina at least 30 minutes before their surgery. 2. Participants will take a short survey. 3. The tampon will be collected during the surgery. 4. A small piece of tissue will be collected from the uterus +/- ovary that is removed in surgery. 5. Participants will give a blood sample. 6. Before or after surgery, participants will answer questions. These will be about their medical history and basic data such as age and race. 7. Researchers will follow participants medical records for up to 5 years after the study. Additional blood may be taken from patient if patient agrees. 8. Researchers will study the samples and tampons. They will compare how well cancer and other markers are detected between the samples. | NO | Endometrial Cancer|Endometrial Cancer Precursors|Ovarian Cancer|Complex Atypical Endometrial Hyperplasia | Endometrial Cancer, Women with histologically confirmed diagnosis of endometrial or ovarian cancer, Enrollment or at time of surgery|Endometrial cancer precursors, Women with histologically confirmed diagnosis of precursors (e.g., atypical hyperplasia), Enrollment or at time of surgery|Non-malignant uterus, Women with fibroids, polyps, endometrial hyperplasia without atypia, adenomyosis, normal endometrium, or other benign conditions determined by histology and/or clinical imaging., Enrollment or at time of surgery | Acceptability of tampon sampling, Women will be given a 10 question survey to assess acceptability of tampon sampling, Prior to surgery|Feasibility of tampon sampling, The feasibility of tampon sampling will be determined by successful tampon insertion according to protocol prior to surgery and sufficient DNA yield (e.g., 1-2 microgram) from the tampon sample., During and immediately after surgery | University of Alabama at Birmingham | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | FEMALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | 1500 | OTHER | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | 999918106|Z01CP010124-21 | 2019-07-01 | 2025-08-11 | 2025-08-11 | 2018-05-29 | 2024-09-05 | University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, Alabama, 35233, United States | |||||
NCT03480022 | Liraglutide 3mg (Saxenda) on Weight, Body Composition, Hormonal and Metabolic Parameters in Obese Women With PCOS | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT03480022 | SAXAPCOS | There is a growing need to develop pharmacologic interventions to improve metabolic function in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Given that PCOS is a frequent condition and weight loss is essential but difficult to achieve, it is important to study if the effect on body weight reported in other studies can be confirmed in a selected population of hyperandrogenic patients, especially with medications currently approved for weight reduction. High dose liraglutide alone results in significant weight reduction in obese women without PCOS. There is limited data on weight loss with high dose liraglutide in non-diabetic females with PCOS treated with this agent . Studies on the effect of anti-obesity medication combined with lifestyle changes on body weight and composition and androgen excess in obese women diagnosed with PCOS are lacking. The investigators aim to elucidate the most efficacious weight reduction regime in obese PCOS women. The investigators further hope to determine which treatment(s) addressing the multifaceted disturbances of this disorder in patients with PCOS and obesity emerges as the preferable therapy. | YES | Pre Diabetes|Polycystic Ovary Syndrome|Obesity Android | DRUG: Liraglutide Pen Injector [Saxenda]|DRUG: Placebo Liraglutide Pen Injector | Absolute Body Weight (BW), Treatment impact on change in body weight after 32 weeks of treatment., 32 weeks of treatment|Free Androgen Index (FAI), Drug treatment effect on free androgen levels as calculated as FAI= total testosterone (T) concentrations divided by sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) levels.

It is also the first known longitudinal study to assess the impact of hands-on cooking and nutrition education on patient outcomes, with those classes taught by medical students and other future and current medical professionals who have first been trained in those classes on how to integrate diet and lifestyle counseling of patients with their respective scopes of clinical practice. CHOP is the primary research study of the world’s first known medical school based teaching kitchen, The Goldring Center for Culinary Medicine at Tulane University School of Medicine. Medical trainees and professionals are followed in this study long-term to understand how the classes impact their competencies in patient counseling, attitudes about the counseling, and their own diets. Patients who consent to being randomized to these classes compared to standard of care are studied within the nested Bayesian adaptive randomized trial to understand how the classes impact their health outcomes, clinical and food costs, and the costs of health systems caring for these patient populations. CHOP is designed as a pragmatic population health trial to hopefully improve healthcare effectiveness, equity, and cost by establishing an evidence-based, scalable, sustainable model of healthcare intervention targeting the social determinants of health, while complementing the pharmacological and/or surgical management of patients. | YES | Cardiovascular Diseases|Cardiovascular Risk Factor|Nutrition Disorders|Diabetes|Hypertension|Cancer|Depression|Obesity|Physical Activity | BEHAVIORAL: Treatment | High or Medium (Versus Low) Mediterranean Diet Adherence, Based on 9-point Trichopoulou et al. 2003 NEJM scale (for patients, medical trainees, and providers), 6 months | Hospital Readmissions, Re-presenting to the hospital for similar presenting diagnosis (for patients), 30 days|Composite Rate of All Cause-mortality, Myocardial Infarction, and Cerebrovascular Event, (For patients), 6 months|Competencies, Educating patients on healthy diet and lifestyles according to 25 competency topics (for medical trainees), 6 months|Healthcare Costs, Direct and indirect (for patients), 6 months|Healthcare Costs, Direct and indirect (for health systems caring for the patients in the trial), 6 months|Food Costs, Grocery and restaurant costs (for patients), 6 months | Tulane University | ALL | CHILD, ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | PHASE1|PHASE2 | 7192 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: TREATMENT | CHOP | 2018-02-01 | 2020-12-18 | 2020-12-18 | 2018-02-23 | 2022-02-25 | 2022-04-29 | The Goldring Center for Culinary Medicine at Tulane University School of Medicine, New Orleans, Louisiana, 70119, United States | Study Protocol and Statistical Analysis Plan, https://cdn.clinicaltrials.gov/large-docs/35/NCT03443635/Prot_SAP_000.pdf | ||

NCT03361020 | Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Survivors of Hodgkin Lymphoma Treated With Thoracic Radiation | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT03361020 | While thoracic radiation therapy (TRT) has been a primary component in successful treatment of Hodgkin lymphoma, exposure to this treatment has been associated with significant cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and pulmonary morbidity in long-term survivors. Survivors of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) are also at risk for fatigue and excessive daytime sleepiness. Insufficient sleep is recognized as an important public health concern, and is associated with cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, neurocognitive problems, and reduced quality of life and productivity. Survivors of HL, who are already at risk for cardiac and neurologic morbidity due to their treatment exposures, could face catastrophic cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events with the added risk associated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The investigators propose to examine indices of sleep quality using polysomnography, and associated neurocognitive performance, brain MRI, and structure and strength of neck muscles in 220 long-term adult survivors of Hodgkin lymphoma treated with thoracic radiation. OBJECTIVES: 1. To estimate the prevalence of OSA in adult survivors of HL treated with thoracic radiation, and compare the frequency to community controls matched on age, gender, race and body mass index. 2. To identify specific therapeutic factors associated with OSA in adult survivors of HL treated with thoracic radiation. 3. To identify biomarkers of OSA in adult survivors of HL treated with thoracic radiation. 4. To examine associations between OSA and cardiac morbidity and brain integrity in the adult survivors of HL treated with thoracic radiation. | NO | Obstructive Sleep Apnea|Hodgkin Lymphoma | Number of participants with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) compared between groups, The comparison will be between the Hodgkin lymphoma survivors and race, age, sex, body mass index (BMI) matched control group on frequency of OSA.

NCT03229408 | Treating Inflammation in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome to Ameliorate Ovarian Dysfunction | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT03229408 | TIN-PCOS-AOD | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is characterized by hyperandrogenism, ovulatory dysfunction and polycystic ovaries. Insulin resistance (IR) is a common feature of PCOS, and the resultant hyperinsulinemia is theorized to promote hyperandrogenism in the disorder. However, 30-50% of women with PCOS who are lean do not have insulin resistance. Women with PCOS also exhibit chronic low-grade inflammation. In PCOS, glucose ingestion activates nuclear factor ĸB (NFĸB), the cardinal signal of inflammation culminating in upregulation of the inflammation pathway within mononuclear cells (MNC). This phenomenon is independent of excess adiposity and is highly correlated with circulating androgens. In addition, in vitro exposure to proinflammatory stimuli is capable of directly stimulating ovarian theca cell androgen production. Nonacetylated salicylates suppress NFĸB activation and are well tolerated in humans. The proposed research is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled study of 90 women with PCOS. Forty-five subjects with PCOS (15 lean without IR), 15 lean with IR and 15 obese) receiving salsalate, a nonacetylated salicylate, at an oral dose of 3-4 gm daily for 12 weeks will be compared with 45 age- and body-composition-matched control women with PCOS receiving placebo. The overarching hypothesis is that inflammation contributes to ovarian dysfunction, independent of excess adiposity or IR. The specific aims are, I: To examine the effect of salsalate administration on the ovarian capacity to secrete androgen and on insulin sensitivity in PCOS. II: To examine the effect of salsalate administration on the inflammatory response of mononuclear cells induced by lipid ingestion and glucose infusion in PCOS. The approach involves evaluation of ovarian androgen secretion in response to human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) administration and insulin sensitivity during the euglycemic phase of a two-step pancreatic clamp along with ovulation monitoring before and after salsalate administration. The inflammatory response of MNC to lipid ingestion and the hyperglycemic phase of the two-step clamp will also be evaluated during treatment by measuring reactive oxygen species, the mRNA and protein content of inflammation markers, NFĸB activation and cytokine release in culture. The investigators expect that women with PCOS receiving salsalate will exhibit decreased ovarian androgen secretion and reduced inflammation regardless of adiposity or IR status. These results will be significant if they show a causal contribution of inflammation to ovarian dysfunction in PCOS, thus improving our understanding of the pathogenesis of PCOS, opening previously unexplored therapeutic avenues that are not necessarily dependent on improving IR, and guiding the design of future studies aimed at determining what interventions will optimally attenuate inflammation in PCOS to reduce medical disease and enhance fertility. | NO | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome | DRUG: Salsalate|OTHER: Placebo | Aim 1: Area under the curve (AUC) for circulating testosterone from serial measurements during HCG stimulation test, Serum ovarian androgen measurement, Change from pre-treatment baseline after 12 weeks of salsalate administration|Aim 2: Maximum lipid-stimulated mononuclear cell nuclear factor ĸB activation during cream challenge test, Transcription factor that is the cardinal signal of inflammation, Change from pre-treatment baseline after 12 weeks of salsalate administration | Aim1: Fractional glucose disappearance / insulin concentration unit during insulin-modified frequently-sampled intravenous tolerance test adjusted for hepatic and peripheral insulin clearance, Peripheral insulin sensitivity measurement, Change from pre-treatment baseline after 12 weeks of salsalate administration | University of Illinois at Chicago | National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) | FEMALE | ADULT | PHASE2 | 60 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: QUADRUPLE (PARTICIPANT, CARE_PROVIDER, INVESTIGATOR, OUTCOMES_ASSESSOR)|Primary Purpose: BASIC_SCIENCE | 2017-0476|R01DK107605-01 | 2018-12-05 | 2024-02-14 | 2024-02-28 | 2017-07-25 | 2024-06-25 | Frank González, Chicago, Illinois, 60612, United States | |||
NCT03194516 | Ketogenic Diet and Prostate Cancer Surveillance Pilot | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT03194516 | GCC 1717 | Men with indolent forms of prostate cancer are managed expectantly using active surveillance, with a goal of delaying treatment and its deleterious side effects. However, almost 50% of men experience progression with this approach and require treatment. Elevated body mass index (BMI) is associated with a dramatically increased risk of progression to higher grade prostate cancer. The goal of the proposed research is to gather preliminary data evaluating the effects of a promising dietary strategy to delay cancer progression in overweight and obese prostate cancer patients undergoing active surveillance. The investigators hypothesize that a ketogenic diet intervention may reduce BMI and favorably alter the prostate microenvironment. | NO | Prostate Cancer | OTHER: Surveillance | Weight loss, 8 weeks | Changes in Testosterone Level, 8 weeks|Changes in Estrogen Level, 8 weeks|Changes in TNF-Alpha Level, 8 weeks|Changes in C-Reactive Protein Level, 8 weeks|Changes in PSA Level, 8 weeks|Changes in High Density Lipoprotein (HDL), 8 weeks|Changes in Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL), 8 weeks|Changes in Triglyceride Level, 8 weeks|Changes in Total Cholesterol Level, 8 weeks|Changes in Fasting Glucose Level, 8 weeks|Changes in Leptin Level, 8 weeks|Changes in Fasting Insulin Level, 8 weeks|Changes in Prostate Tissue Metabolomic Profile, 8 weeks|Changes in Prostate Tissue DNA Methylation, 8 weeks | University of Maryland, Baltimore | MALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | 12 | OTHER | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | HP-00072961 | 2017-06-12 | 2019-01-09 | 2019-11-13 | 2017-06-21 | 2021-04-05 | University of Maryland GCCC, Baltimore, Maryland, 21201, United States | |||||

NCT03089177 | Community Activation for Prevention (CAPs): A Study of Community Gardening | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT03089177 | CAPs | The investigators previous studies show that community gardening is associated with reduction of key health behaviors for cancer prevention in diverse populations. Community gardeners eat more fruits and vegetables per day, are more physically active, and are more likely to avoid age-associated increase in body mass index (BMI). The effect is partially explained by the finding that gardeners are more socially involved, and feel more social support than non-gardeners. The investigators propose a randomized controlled trial to determine whether community gardening improves cancer-preventive behaviors among a multi-ethnic, low-income adult population and elucidate the pathways that shape cancer-preventive behaviors. A randomized controlled trial is needed to demonstrate that the observed behavioral differences are due to the effect of gardening as an intervention rather than self-selection by gardeners. | NO | Cancer|Obesity|Lifestyle, Sedentary|Physical Activity|Health Behavior|Chronic Disease|Diet Modification | BEHAVIORAL: Community Garden Intervention | Change in fruit and vegetable intake from baseline at 20 weeks and 52 weeks, 9 24-hour diet recalls will be collected randomly, Measurements will occur during weeks 1-2 (3 random recalls) and week 20 (3 random recalls) and week 48 (3 random recalls)|Change in sedentary time from baseline at 20 weeks and 48 weeks, Accelerometers will be adhered to thigh and collect data for 7 days, 3 measurements over one year, T1 (week 1), T2 (week 20), T3 (week 52)|Change in fiber Intake from baseline at 20 weeks and 52 weeks, 9 24-hour diet recalls will be collected randomly, Measurements will occur during weeks 1-2 (3 random recalls) and week 20 (3 random recalls) and week 48 (3 random recalls)|Change in Healthy Eating Index (HEI) from baseline at 20 weeks and 52 weeks, 9 24-hour diet recalls will be collected randomly, Measurements will occur during weeks 1-2 (3 random recalls) and week 20 (3 random recalls) and week 48 (3 random recalls)|Change in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) from baseline to 20 weeks, Accelerometers will be adhered to thigh and collect data for 7 days, 3 measurements over one year, T1 (week 1), T2 (week 20), T3 (week 52)|Change in waist circumference from baseline to 20 weeks and 52 weeks, Measurement of waist circumference (cm), 3 measurements over one year, T1 (week 1), T2 (week 20), T3 (week 52)|Change in weight (kg) from baseline to 20 weeks and 52 weeks, Objective measurement of weight will be collected, 3 measurements over one year, T1 (week 1), T2 (week 20), T3 (week 52) | Change in Perceived Stress from baseline to 20 weeks and 52 weeks, Validated scale of perceived stress will be completed, 3 measurements over one year, T1 (week 1), T2 (week 20), T3 (week 52) | University of Colorado, Boulder | Michigan State University|Colorado School of Public Health|University of South Carolina|Colorado State University|Denver Urban Gardens | ALL | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | NA | 296 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: DOUBLE (INVESTIGATOR, OUTCOMES_ASSESSOR)|Primary Purpose: PREVENTION | 16-0644 | 2017-01-01 | 2020-07-30 | 2021-06-30 | 2017-03-24 | 2021-05-07 | University of Colorado Boulder, Boulder, Colorado, 80303, United States | |||

NCT02969291 | A Home-Based Study to Enhance Activity in Breast Cancer Survivors | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02969291 | There is a well-documented association between physical activity \& risk for breast cancer development and recurrence. It is known that exercise interventions have been effective at increasing physical activity levels in breast cancer survivors. Knowing that breast cancer survivors are less active than non-cancer patients, a less active lifestyle places them at risk of obesity and poor overall health, which in turn also increases risk of cancer and cancer recurrence. Not all the reasons for the risk reduction are clear, however it is known that hormones and other inflammatory markers play a role. This study has three goals: 1. To investigate the feasibility of a home intervention designed to reduce sedentary behavior. 2. Describe the effects of the intervention on levels of sedentary behavior, physical activity, and symptoms. 3.

NCT02938780 | Using Behavioral Economics to Achieve Improved Healthy Behavior Outcomes in Breast Cancer Survivors | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02938780 | Preventing or reducing obesity is one factor that has been hailed as a way to improve quality of life, reduce recurrence, and increase survival rates among breast cancer survivors. An experienced team of multi-disciplinary researchers has developed an innovative and unique approach to encourage enhanced nutrition and exercise behaviors in this population using principles of behavioral economics. In particular, the use of social norms or exemplars has been shown in other applications to be effective, and if successful in this population could be inexpensively scaled up for widespread adoption. The proposed pilot study develops a system of text messages for social/mobile media that will provide ongoing reinforcement of desired behavior in breast cancer survivors. These messages would focus on achieving compliance with the expert-developed nutrition and exercise recommendations of the American Cancer Society. In the main study, 310 breast cancer survivors will be randomly placed in intervention and control groups for the 12 week study. Behavior change will be measured using established measures of self-reported behavior. In a sub-study, 60 of the breast cancer survivor participants will also provide blood and urine samples so changes in biomarkers can be assessed.

NCT02811809 | Apalutamide Plus Intermittent Hormone Therapy Versus Intermittent Hormone Therapy Alone in Prostate Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02811809 | This study is open to men who have biochemical recurrence (BCR, increased PSA) following local treatment of their prostate cancer. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is a standard treatment option, but is only effective for 16-24 months and has a number of side effects that impact quality of life. These side effects may include fatigue, hot flushing, loss of sex drive, brain fog, decreased bone mineral density, loss of muscle mass, mild anemia (low levels of red blood cells that can make people feel tired and weak), diabetes (low blood sugar), heart disease, metabolic syndromes (sometimes called “pre-diabetes” and includes obesity, increased blood pressure, high levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in blood), and risk of fractures. An alternative to continuous ADT is intermittent administration, where patients are given “breaks” from ADT to let their testosterone levels return to baseline. There are a number of potential benefits to intermittent hormone therapy (IHT): (1) longer time to the development of resistance; (2) improved patient quality of life owing to recovery from adverse effects, particularly sexual function; and (3) substantial cost savings owing to less time spent receiving medication. Leuprolide is the name of the ADT / IHT drug. Apalutamide is an investigational drug, which means it has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It is an antitumor drug, taken by mouth. The purpose of this study is to determine the ability of Apalutamide to extend the time between the first two injections of leuprolide and improve quality of life. This study will also look at the safety of Apalutamide and the effects that Apalutamide has on prostate cancer. Men will be randomized (like flipping a coin) to receive: * Group A: Leuprolide + Apalutamide or * Group B: Leuprolide only (until second leuprolide injection), then leuprolide + Apalutamide 45 men will be in Group A and 21 men will be in Group B. Leuprolide is given as an intramuscular shot that lasts for 3 months intermittently and Apalutamide is taken by mouth (4 tablets) daily. Each cycle is 4 weeks long. Intermittent treatment with Apalutamide + leuprolide will continue until continuous leuprolide is needed to maintain undetectable PSA levels (i.e., PSA levels rise above undetectable level unless leuprolide is given without pause, every 3 months). | NO | Prostate Cancer | DRUG: Apalutamide|DRUG: IHT | Time to second injection, Time to second injection, 48 months | Time to prostate-specific antigen (PSA) nadir, Time to prostate-specific antigen (PSA) nadir, 48 months|Duration of PSA nadir, Duration of PSA nadir, 48 months|Time to testosterone recovery to >50 ng/dl, Time to testosterone recovery to \>50 ng/dl, 48 months|Duration of testosterone recovery, Duration of testosterone recovery, 48 months|Circulating tumor cell (CTC) enumeration, Circulating tumor cell (CTC) enumeration, 48 months|Time until BCR after discontinuation of Apalutamide and ADT, Time until BCR after discontinuation of Apalutamide and ADT, 48 months|Quality of life as determined by FACT-P survey, Quality of life as determined by FACT-P survey, 48 months|Number of Adverse Events, Number of Adverse Events, 48 months | The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston | Janssen Scientific Affairs, LLC | MALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | PHASE2 | 0 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: CROSSOVER|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: TREATMENT | GU-15-105|HSC-MS-16-0477 | 2020-12 | 2024-12 | 2025-12 | 2016-06-23 | 2020-02-27 | UTHealth Memorial Hermann Cancer Center, Houston, Texas, 77030, United States | ||||

Previous studies have found that women who are overweight or obese when their breast cancer is found (diagnosed) have a greater risk of their breast cancer recurring, as compared to women who were thinner when their cancer was diagnosed. This study aims to test whether overweight or obese women who take part in a weight loss program after being diagnosed with breast cancer have a lower rate of cancer recurrence as compared to women who do not take part in the weight loss program. This study will help to show whether weight loss programs should be a part of breast cancer treatment. | NO | Breast Carcinoma | OTHER: Health Education Program|OTHER: Weight Loss Intervention | Invasive disease-free survival, Up to 10 years | Overall survival, Up to 10 years|Distant disease-free survival, Up to 10 years|Change in weight (defined as % change), At baseline, 6, 12, 24 and 60 months|Measures of physical activity (self report and objective), Up to 10 years|Dietary intake (total calorie consumption), Up to 10 years|Occurrence of insulin resistance syndrome complications (diabetes, hospitalizations for cardiovascular disease), Up to 10 years|Changes in biomarker (insulin) associated with breast cancer risk and outcomes, Up to 10 years|Changes in biomarker (glucose) associated with breast cancer risk and outcomes, Up to 10 years|Changes in biomarker (HOMA) associated with breast cancer risk and outcomes, Up to 10 years|Changes in biomarker (leptin) associated with breast cancer risk and outcomes, Up to 10 years|Changes in biomarker (adiponectin) associated with breast cancer risk and outcomes, Up to 10 years|Changes in biomarker (IGF-1) associated with breast cancer risk and outcomes, Up to 10 years|Changes in biomarker (IGFBP3) associated with breast cancer risk and outcomes, Up to 10 years|Changes in biomarker (IL-6) associated with breast cancer risk and outcomes, Up to 10 years|Changes in biomarker (CRP) associated with breast cancer risk and outcomes, Up to 10 years|Changes in biomarker (TNF-a) associated with breast cancer risk and outcomes, Up to 10 years|Patient reported outcomes – physical functioning, Up to 10 years|Patient reported outcomes – fatigue, Up to 10 years|Patient reported outcomes – depression and anxiety, Up to 10 years|Patient reported outcomes – sleep disturbance, Up to 10 years|Patient reported outcomes – incidence of breast cancer treatment related symptoms, Up to 10 years|Patient reported outcomes – body image, Up to 10 years | Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology | National Cancer Institute (NCI)|Division of Cancer Control|NIH Biomarker, Imaging and Quality of Life Studies Funding Program (BIQSFP)|Canadian Cancer Trials Group | FEMALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | PHASE3 | 3177 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: TREATMENT | A011401|NCI-2015-01918|U10CA180821 | 2016-09-16 | 2030-05-30 | 2030-05-30 | 2016-04-26 | 2025-01-13 | Southern Cancer Center PC-Daphne, Daphne, Alabama, 36526, United States|Southern Cancer Center PC-Mobile, Mobile, Alabama, 36607, United States|Southern Cancer Center PC-Providence, Mobile, Alabama, 36608, United States|Southern Cancer Center PC-Springhill, Mobile, Alabama, 36608, United States|Anchorage Associates in Radiation Medicine, Anchorage, Alaska, 98508, United States|Anchorage Radiation Therapy Center, Anchorage, Alaska, 99504, United States|Alaska Breast Care and Surgery LLC, Anchorage, Alaska, 99508, United States|Alaska Oncology and Hematology LLC, Anchorage, Alaska, 99508, United States|Alaska Women’s Cancer Care, Anchorage, Alaska, 99508, United States|Anchorage Oncology Centre, Anchorage, Alaska, 99508, United States|Katmai Oncology Group, Anchorage, Alaska, 99508, United States|Providence Alaska Medical Center, Anchorage, Alaska, 99508, United States|Fairbanks Memorial Hospital, Fairbanks, Alaska, 99701, United States|Kingman Regional Medical Center, Kingman, Arizona, 86401, United States|Cancer Center at Saint Joseph’s, Phoenix, Arizona, 85004, United States|Mayo Clinic Hospital in Arizona, Phoenix, Arizona, 85054, United States|Mayo Clinic in Arizona, Scottsdale, Arizona, 85259, United States|University of Arizona Cancer Center-Orange Grove Campus, Tucson, Arizona, 85704, United States|Banner University Medical Center – Tucson, Tucson, Arizona, 85719, United States|University of Arizona Cancer Center-North Campus, Tucson, Arizona, 85719, United States|Mercy Hospital Fort Smith, Ft.

The CushingQoL consists of questions reflecting dimensions of HRQoL related to physical aspects (e.g. ‘I bruise easily’), psychological aspects (e.g. ‘I am more irritable, I have sudden mood swings and angry outbursts’), and social aspects (e.g. ‘I have had to give up my social or leisure activities due to my illness’). The questionnaire consists of 12 items measured on a five point Likert-type scale assessing how often or how much each item has been related to the patient’s Cushing’s disease in the previous week. The raw score is calculated by summing the individual item scores prior to being standardized so that the total score ranges from 0 to 100.

The EQ-5D-5L measures 5 items on mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression, measured on 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems, and extreme problems. A utility index can be computed from the EQ 5D-5L descriptive system with utility scores ranging from -0.281 (worst imaginable health state) to 1 (best imaginable health state), with -0.281 representing an “unconscious” health state. A single index value is analyzed for the EQ-5D-5L score. An increase from baseline in the EQ-ED-5L utility index is indicative of an improvement., Baseline to Week 12 and 48, Week 12 to Week 36, Week 36 to Week 48.|Change From Baseline in EQ-5D VAS, The EQ-5D-5L also includes a 20 cm vertical, VAS (visual analogue scale) with a scale of 0-100, with endpoints labeled 100=’the best health you can imagine’ and 0=’the worst health you can imagine’. A single index value is analyzed for the EQ-5D-5L VAS score. An increase from baseline in the EQ-ED-5L VAS is indicative of an improvement., Baseline to Week 12 and 48, Week 12 to Week 36, Week 36 to Week 48.|Change From Baseline in Beck Depression Inventory-II – Total Score Derived, The Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II) is a patient reported instrument that consists of 21 items designed to assess the intensity of depression in clinical and normal patients in the preceding two weeks. Each item is a list of four statements arranged in increasing severity about a particular symptom of depression.

Thus, in collaboration with University of Tennessee Medical Center’s (UTMC) Cancer Institute, investigators propose to randomize 30 female breast cancer survivors (history of breast cancer stages I \[\> 1 cm\], II, or III) with a body mass index (BMI) between 25 and 45 kg/m2 who are sedentary (engage in \> 8 hours a day of SB) and inactive (engage in \< 100 min/wk MVPA) to one of three, 3-month conditions: 1. lifestyle intervention (Lifestyle) (increase MVPA to \> 200 min/wk); 2. lifestyle intervention with a reduced SB prescription (Lifestyle+SB) (increase MVPA to \> 200 min/wk and reduce SB by 2 hrs/day); or 3. weight management education materials provided via mailed newsletter (Newsletter). Lifestyle and Lifestyle+SB will receive a standard dietary (low-calorie \[1200-1500 kcal/day\], low-fat \[\<30% calories from fat\]) prescription that emphasizes intake of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, and a cognitive behavioral intervention to assist with meeting activity and diet goals. Dependent variables, measured at 0 and 3 months, include objectively measured SB, LPA, MVPA, and total activity via accelerometry; self-reported SB; percent weight loss; insulin and glucose, and leptin and C-reactive protein (CRP) (biomarkers of cancer prognosis that have been found to be positively related to SB and/or adiposity); diet; body composition; and fitness. | NO | Breast Cancer|Sedentary Lifestyle | BEHAVIORAL: Common intervention components for Lifestyle | Measures of activity by Armband, Participants will wear the SenseWear Armband (SWA) for data collection of time spent engaging in physical activity per day., change from baseline to 12 weeks|Weight, Weight will be assessed by an electronic scale., change from baseline to 12 weeks|Measures of diet, Diet will be assessed by 3-day food records (2 weekdays and 1 weekend day).

NCT02611128 | Urinary DENND1A.V2 as a Predictor of Pubertal Hyperandrogenemia | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02611128 | DENND1A | Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common disorder marked by hyperandrogenism, oligo-/anovulation, and subfertility. The precise causes of PCOS are unclear, but the pathophysiology involves complex genetic and environmental influences. Importantly, not all girls with obesity have HA, and free testosterone (T) concentrations are highly variable in this group. Luteinizing hormone (LH) and insulin concentrations are significant but only partial predictors of free T in girls with obesity; significant unexplained variability in free T suggests that additional factors contribute to HA in this population. Abnormalities of ovarian and adrenal steroidogenesis are likely contributors in this regard, but such abnormalities are difficult to quantify. Recent Genome Wide Association Studies have identified DENND1A as a PCOS susceptibility gene candidate. Preliminary in vitro data strongly implicate a DENND1A splice variant called DENND1A Variant 2 (DENND1A.V2) as a contributor to excessive theca cell androgen production in PCOS. The investigators’ primary goal with the proposed pilot study is to determine the relationship between urinary exosomal DENND1A.V2 mRNA and free T concentrations in peripubertal girls. The investigators hypothesize that urinary exosomal DENND1A.V2 mRNA quantity is a significant and independent predictor of peripubertal hyperandrogenemia. In this study, the investigators will carefully phenotype peripubertal girls with and without hyperandrogenemia (primarily in the form of hormonal, maturational, and anthropometric measurements) in addition to measuring urinary exosomal DENND1A.V2 mRNA. As a primary analysis, the investigators will examine the relationship between morning free testosterone and urinary exosomal DENND1A.V2, controlling for previously-described partial predictors of free testosterone (LH, insulin) in addition to potential confounders (BMI z-score, bone age). These studies will provide important information regarding the etiology of HA in peripubertal girls. Ultimately, these data may lead to a non-invasive test of ovarian/adrenal steroidogenic activity and support the development of a diagnostic test for PCOS in high-risk peripubertal girls (e.g., those with obesity). | NO | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome|Hyperandrogenism|Puberty | OTHER: Phenotype/genotype assessment | Urinary exosomal DENND1A.V2, Urinary exosomal DENND1A.V2, Day 1 of study (the study involves one outpatient visit)|Serum free testosterone, Calculated free testosterone, Day 1 of study (the study involves one outpatient visit) | Bone age, A measure of maturational stage, Day 1 of study (the study involves one outpatient visit)|BMI z-score, Body mass index normalized for age and gender, Day 1 of study (the study involves one outpatient visit)|Morning luteinizing hormone, Serum luteinizing hormone (LH) measured at same time as free testosterone and fasting insulin, Day 1 of study (the study involves one outpatient visit)|Fasting insulin, Serum insulin measured at same time as free testosterone and morning LH, Day 1 of study (the study involves one outpatient visit) | University of Virginia | Penn State University|Virginia Commonwealth University|Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) | FEMALE | CHILD | 65 | OTHER | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | 17633|P50HD028934 | 2015-05-29 | 2024-12 | 2024-12 | 2015-11-20 | 2023-11-02 | Center for Research in Reproduction, Charlottesville, Virginia, 22908, United States | ||||

NCT02574507 | Behavioral Weight and Symptom Management for Breast Cancer Survivors and Partners | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02574507 | The objective of the study is to develop and test the feasibility, acceptability, and initial efficacy of a novel couples-based behavioral weight and symptom management intervention for obese breast cancer survivors and their partners. The proposed project consists of two phases. Phase I will include intervention development and refinement. Intervention development will be guided by the research team’s prior work, the interdependence model of communal coping and behavior change, and information obtained from couples participating in focus groups. The intervention protocol will then be tested with 5 couples to assist with refinement of intervention content. During phase II, the feasibility, acceptability and initial efficacy of the intervention will be examined. Obese breast cancer survivors in the three years following treatment and their overweight or obese partners will receive 6 weekly and 6 biweekly sessions for a total of 12 sessions spaced across approximately 5 months. The intervention will be provided in a couples-based format where each couple will meet separately with the therapist. Couples will be assessed at pre-, post-, and 3-months post-treatment. Study outcomes will be weight, symptoms (i.e., pain, fatigue, distress), eating behavior, and physical activity. Exploratory outcomes examine biomarkers (i.e., insulin, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-alpha, adiponectin) associated with health outcomes for cancer survivors and their partners. It is hypothesized that the intervention will be feasible (i.e., completed sessions), and participants will find the intervention acceptable as assessed by a measure of treatment acceptability. It is also hypothesized that participants will evidence decreased weight and improvements in symptoms (i.e., pain, fatigue, distress), eating behavior, and physical activity, and their change in weight will covary with change in symptoms, eating behavior, and daily physical activity.

NCT02501460 | Impact of Resistance Training-Protein Supplementation on Lean Muscle Mass in Childhood Cancer Survivors | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02501460 | This study is being conducted because low lean muscle mass is prevalent among childhood cancer survivors. Lean muscle is the non-fatty muscle tissue that makes up part of the body’s lean body mass. Low lean muscle mass is associated with loss of overall body strength, declining mobility and eventually, loss of independence. Among childhood cancer survivors, low lean muscle mass may contribute to reduced physical functioning and a sense of fatigue with exertion, limiting ability to participate in adequate physical activity. Loss of strength and a sense of fatigue with repeated movement make it difficult to participate in daily activities. Although there have not been exercise intervention studies among childhood cancer survivors specifically designed to evaluate the effects of resistance training on muscle mass, studies among individuals with chronic disease, including survivors of adult onset cancers, indicate that resistance exercise improves muscle mass, muscle strength, mobility, vitality and physical activity levels. Resistance training (weight lifting) is a form of physical activity that is designed to improve muscular fitness by exercising a muscle or a muscle group against external resistance. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effects of resistance training combined with either a protein supplement or a sports drink on changes in lean muscle mass in young adults who were treated for childhood cancer. The sports drink, for this study, is considered a placebo. | NO | Cancer | OTHER: Educational handouts|OTHER: Resistance training|DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT: Supplementation|OTHER: Placebo | Change in lean muscle mass by arm, Dual x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) will be used to determine lean muscle mass.

NCT02476162 | Assessing Blood Pressure Remotely in Childhood Cancer Survivors | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02476162 | Second malignant neoplasms and cardiac late effects are primary drivers of serious non-recurrence morbidity and mortality in long term childhood cancer survivors. Cardiac late effects have been most prominently associated with exposure to high doses of anthracyclines or chest radiation. While increased recognition of late effects has resulted in risk-targeted therapy and reductions in use of high dose radiation and anthracyclines for many patients, these cardiotoxic exposures continue to be essential components of curative childhood cancer therapy. In addition, as survivors age they are increasingly susceptible to other general risk factors for cardiovascular disease recognized in the general population, such as hypertension, obesity, dyslipidemia, and diabetes. This study will evaluate a high blood pressure monitor (HBPM)-based intervention for the early detection of pre-hypertension and prevention of clinical hypertension in survivors of childhood cancer. Eligible and consenting participants will be randomized into one of three groups: GROUP 1: Instructed to measure blood pressure (BP) every day for 3 months. GROUP 2: Instructed to measure BP for 7 consecutive days once a month, for 3 months. GROUP 3: Instructed to measure blood pressure for 3 consecutive days each month, for 3 months. The randomization to the above groups will be done using sequential assignment of newly recruited participants based on a randomly ordered list. PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: * Evaluate the feasibility of High Blood Pressure Monitoring (HBPM) for three consecutive months using a remote blood pressure device provided to participants of the St. Jude Lifetime cohort (SJLIFE) protocol. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: * Assess compliance with use of HBPM by measurement frequency, evaluating overall and defined minimum use in each of the three different groups. * Assess compliance with use of HBPM by cell phone status, evaluating those with and without a personal cell phone capable of connecting directly to the home blood pressure monitoring device via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth network. | NO | Hypertension | DEVICE: iHealth Wireless Blood Pressure Monitor | Proportion of participants who meet or exceed defined minimum use of HBPM device by group, The proportion of participants who meet or exceed the defined minimum level of compliance with recording of scheduled blood pressure measurements will be reported.

When patients have a high level of sugar in their blood, due to eating sugary foods and/or a sedentary lifestyle, the pancreas needs to work harder to digest the sugar. This can cause weight gain, obesity, and other illnesses. Breast cancer patients who are overweight and obese are more likely to have their breast cancer return. The pancreatic nutritional program is a diet and lifestyle intervention that helps protect the pancreas by keeping blood sugar levels low, and may help patients achieve sustained weight loss, improved health, better quality of life, and possibly a better outcome to their treatment. | NO | Obesity|Stage IA Breast Cancer|Stage IB Breast Cancer|Stage IIA Breast Cancer|Stage IIB Breast Cancer|Stage IIIA Breast Cancer|Stage IIIB Breast Cancer|Stage IIIC Breast Cancer | DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT: Dietary Intervention|OTHER: Educational Intervention|OTHER: Laboratory Biomarker Analysis|OTHER: Quality-of-Life Assessment | Change in body weight, Tested using the paired t-test, alpha = 0.05., Baseline to 6 months | Change in body chemistry (lipid panel; comprehensive metabolic panel; complete blood count; fasting blood glucose; insulin resistance), Tested using the paired t-test, alpha = 0.05.

NCT02399956 | Lactation Outcomes Among Survivors of Pediatric Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02399956 | While the majority of women in the general population can breastfeed successfully, the investigators have limited knowledge about the correlates and sequelae of lactation success among women treated for pediatric malignancies. Childhood cancer treatments are known to cause late effects that frequently involve the endocrine system. Because normal lactation is dependent upon interplay of multiple endocrine factors, the investigators anticipate more breastfeeding difficulties in survivors that have diabetes, growth hormone deficiencies, thyroid disorders and obesity. In order to more fully inform clinicians and female survivors, the study of the burden of lactation failure is needed to begin to address the impact of pediatric cancer therapy on lactation success/failure and to examine the association of specific endocrine disorders on lactation outcomes. | NO | Cancer|Leukemia | OTHER: Survey | Number of survivors who experience successful breastfeeding outcome by age at diagnosis, Once, at enrollment (Day 1)|Number of survivors who experience successful breastfeeding outcome by years since diagnosis, Years since diagnosis will equal the years since diagnosis prior to first pregnancy resulting in a live birth., Once, at enrollment (Day 1)|Number of survivors who experience successful breastfeeding outcome by therapy with radiation, Once, at enrollment (Day 1)|Number of survivors who experience successful breastfeeding outcome by therapy with surgery, Includes chest and/or brain surgery., Once, at enrollment (Day 1)|Number of survivors who experience successful breastfeeding outcome by diagnosis of growth hormone deficiency, Growth hormone deficiency indicated by low IGF-1, Once, at enrollment (Day 1)|Number of survivors who experience successful breastfeeding outcome by diagnosis of hypothyroidism, Hypothyroidism, primary or central, measured by TSH level., Once, at enrollment (Day 1)|Number of survivors who experience successful breastfeeding outcome by diagnosis of diabetes mellitus, Once, at enrollment (Day 1)|Number of survivors who experience successful breastfeeding outcome by diagnosis of obesity, Obesity (BMI) prior to pregnancy., Once, at enrollment (Day 1) | Number of survivors who experience successful breastfeeding outcome compared to healthy women, Breastfeeding outcomes (intention, initiation, and duration/weaning) will be determined by self-report, and dichotomized for analysis.

Excess body weight or obesity is one of the most common contributors to (causes of) endometrial cancer. Over two-thirds of women who have survived endometrial cancer are obese. Complications of obesity, such as heart disease are often more dangerous than the cancer itself. A weight loss of even 5-10% of excess body weight is associated with improved health. Often, meeting with a doctor or person who is an expert in weight loss (bariatric specialist) is the best way to lose weight and keep it off. Endometrial cancer survivors or patients with atypical hyperplasia who go see a weight loss specialist recommended by their doctor may be able to achieve a healthier body weight. | NO | Complex Endometrial Hyperplasia With Atypia|Stage IA Uterine Corpus Cancer|Stage IB Uterine Corpus Cancer|Stage II Uterine Corpus Cancer | BEHAVIORAL: Weight Loss Specialist|OTHER: Quality-of-Life Assessment|OTHER: Medical Chart Review | Accrual with intervention, defined as number of subjects who agree to participate, Descriptive statistics will be used.

NCT02278185 | Enzalutamide Versus Standard Androgen Deprivation Therapy for the Treatment Hormone Sensitive Prostate Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02278185 | This randomized phase II trial compares enzalutamide with standard androgen deprivation therapy in reducing incidence of metabolic syndrome in patients with prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Metabolic syndrome is defined as changes in cholesterol, blood pressure, circulating sugar levels, and body weight. Previous studies have shown that patients with prostate cancer, who have been treated with standard medical therapy that lowers testosterone levels, have an increased risk of these changes. Hormone therapy using enzalutamide may fight prostate cancer by blocking the use of testosterone by the tumor cells instead of lowering testosterone levels. It is not yet known whether prostate cancer patients who receive enzalutamide will have reduced incidence of metabolic syndrome than patients who receive standard androgen deprivation therapy. | YES | Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate|Recurrent Prostate Cancer|Stage III Prostate Cancer|Stage IV Prostate Cancer | DRUG: Enzalutamide|DRUG: leuprolide acetate|DRUG: goserelin acetate|DRUG: histrelin acetate|DRUG: triptorelin|DRUG: degarelix | Metabolic Syndrome Incidence, Summarized by the Number of Patients With at Least 3 of the 5 Pre-specified Criteria, Metabolic syndrome will be assessed at the beginning of each course and defined by the presence of 3 of the following five traits: abdominal obesity, defined as a waist circumference \> 102 cm (\> 40 in); serum triglycerides \>= 150 mg/dL (1.7 mmol/L) or drug treatment for elevated triglycerides; serum high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol \< 40 mg/dL (1 mmol/L) or drug treatment for low HDL; blood pressure \>= 130/\>= 85 mmHg or drug treatment for elevated blood pressure; and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) \>= 100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L) or drug treatment for elevated blood glucose., Within the first 12 months of therapy | Metabolic Syndrome Incidence, Summarized by the Proportion of Patients With at Least 3 of the 5 Pre-specified Criteria, Metabolic syndrome will be assessed at the beginning of each course and defined by the presence of 3 of the following five traits: abdominal obesity, defined as a waist circumference \> 102 cm (\> 40 in); serum triglycerides \>= 150 mg/dL (1.7 mmol/L) or drug treatment for elevated triglycerides; serum HDL cholesterol \< 40 mg/dL (1 mmol/L) or drug treatment for low HDL; blood pressure \>= 130/\>= 85 mmHg or drug treatment for elevated blood pressure; and FPG \>= 100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L) or drug treatment for elevated blood glucose., Within the first 6 months of therapy|Change in Bone Turnover Markers, as Measured by Bone-specific Alkaline Phosphatase, Will be assessed for each treatment group.

NCT02273206 | Collaborative Care to Reduce Depression and Increase Cancer Screening Among Low-Income Urban Women | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02273206 | PCM3 | Bronx County, New York is the poorest urban county in the U.S.A., and residents are almost entirely Latino or African American. Cancer is the leading cause of premature death in the Bronx, with morality rates significantly higher than for New York City as a whole. Low-income/minority populations are more likely to be diagnosed with preventable and late-stage cancers than the general population, in part, due to lower screening rates. While research has addressed screening barriers in low-income/minority groups, depression, a common,potentially critical barrier, has received scant attention. Research suggests that depressed women are less likely to engage in cancer screening, especially mammography and Pap testing. The link between mental health and cancer screening is particularly important to address in the Bronx, which has the highest rates of self-reported serious psychological distress (a measure closely related to depression) in New York City. Depression affects almost 1 in 4 minority women, and while minorities often seek help for depression in primary care, primary care depression management often does not meet evidence-based standards. Drawing on the expertise and close collaboration of Bronx medical and social service providers and patient stakeholders, this study will determine whether a collaborative care intervention that addresses both depression and cancer screening needs simultaneously among women ages 50-64 is more effective at improving cancer screening and patient-reported outcomes for women with depression than an existing evidence-based cancer screening intervention alone. To achieve this, the investigators will compare the effectiveness of these two interventions using a randomized controlled trial (RCT). In partnership with six Bronx Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), the investigators will recruit approximately 800 women ages 50-64 who screen positive for depression and are non-adherent with recommended cervical, breast, and/or colorectal cancer screenings. The investigators specific aims are to: 1) compare the impact of the two interventions on patient-reported outcomes, including cancer screening knowledge and attitudes, self-efficacy, depression-related stigma, provider referrals, participation in mental health care, medication adherence, quality of life, satisfaction with care and treatment decisions, and depression; 2) compare the effectiveness of the two interventions in increasing breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer screening; 3) determine whether reducing depression increases the likelihood that low-income women 50-64 will receive cancer screening; 4) determine whether effectiveness of the two interventions in increasing cancer screening varies according to patient characteristics, such as duration of depression, presence of other chronic conditions, and obesity. This study is designed to increase the investigators understanding of how to enhance primary care systems’ ability to improve a range of outcomes related to cancer screening and depression among low-income minority women, and how to best support this population in making cancer-screening decisions. | YES | Depression|Breast Cancer Screening|Cervical Cancer Screening|Colorectal Cancer Screening | BEHAVIORAL: Prevention Care Management for Depression and Cancer Screening|BEHAVIORAL: Prevention Care Management for Cancer Screening | Assessment of Colorectal, Breast, and Cervical Cancer Screening Up to Date Status, Comparison of the proportion of patients who were up to date for colorectal cancer, breast cancer and cervical cancer screenings before and after the intervention.

(Self-Report). The Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ9) is a well-validated measure of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 4th Edition (DSM-IV) criteria for screening and diagnosing depressive episode, assessing severity, and monitoring treatment response. The PHQ9 score ranges from the minimum of 0 (no depression) to the maximum of 27 (severe depression). The detailed PHQ9 scores and corresponding level of depression severity are as follow: 0 (no depression), 1-4 (mild depression), 5-9 (medium-mild depression), 10-14 (moderate depression), 15-19 (moderately severe depression) and 20-27 (severe depression). The mean change in PHQ9 score is the mean of the differences between PHQ9 score at baseline and the PHQ9 score at follow up for all cases in the respective intervention arm; the greater the change in PHQ9 score, the greater the improvement in depression severity., Baseline – 12 months|Change From Baseline in The Hopkins Symptom Checklist (SCL-20) at 6 Months, The SCL-20 consists of the 20 depression items on a 4-point scale from the SCL-90, and has been shown to be a valid and reliable measure of depression in diverse outpatient and community populations., Baseline – 6 months|Change From Baseline in The Hopkins Symptom Checklist (SCL-20) at 12 Months, The SCL-20 consists of the 20 depression items on a 4-point scale from the SCL-90, and has been shown to be a valid and reliable measure of depression in diverse outpatient and community populations., Baseline – 12 months|Changes From Baseline in Number of Participants With Colorectal, Breast, and/or Cervical Cancer Screening, Self-Report: We will ask participants about their participation (yes/no) in specific screening methods: Pap testing (past 3 years), mammography (past 2 years), and colorectal screening (fecal occult blood tests (FOBT)/fecal immunohistochemical tests (FIT)), past year; flexible sigmoidoscopy, the past 5 years; and colonoscopy, past 10 years)., Baseline – 12 months | Mental Health Care Utilization: Assessed by Patient Report, Participants were asked how many times in the past six months they had seen a provider to talk about or to receive medication for feeling sad, nervous, hopeless, or blue.

Moderate Anxiety (10-14) and severe anxiety would be (15-21)., Baseline, 6 months and 12 months|Medical Outcomes Study Health Survey-Short Form, The quality of life was measured with the Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) is a general measure of health status that assess the patient’s perceived health status and whether health problems interfere with normal functioning. The SF-12 has demonstrated validity and test-retest reliability in the general population and in patients with chronic health conditions, and has been tested in five languages, including Spanish. It has been used extensively as a quality of life measure in collaborative care studies, including with low-income minority populations. It has also been used frequently in screening studies, for cancer and other conditions.

NCT02224807 | Effects of Diet and Exercise on Ductal Carcinoma in Situ | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02224807 | DCIS | This pilot/feasibility trial seeks to explore whether an acute bout of negative energy balance prior to surgery affects biomarkers of neoplasia. Forty overweight or obese postmenopausal women diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) or early stage breast cancer (Stage I or II) who elect mastectomy or lumpectomy will be randomly assigned to 1-of-2 study arms: 1) an Attention Control Group that receives instruction on dietary approaches to correct nutritional deficiencies and progressive resistance training (PRT) that targets the arm ipsilateral to the affected breast; or 2) an Experimental Group that will receive PRT and guidance to correct nutritional deficiencies plus an intensive intervention to promote a 1.5-2 pound/week weight loss through diet, exercise, and behavior modification. This study will explore and contrast changes in body mass index (BMI) observed from enrollment to the time of surgery in the experimental vs. attention control arms, and also monitor changes in energy intake and physical activity. These changes will be studied in relation to the following endpoints: a) changes in select circulating biomarkers and gene expression related to cancer progression, hormonal status, inflammation and other energy-related factors; b) rates of tumor proliferation and apoptosis; c) tumor markers, e.g., insulin receptor, Vascular Epithelial Growth Factor (VEGF), Nuclear Factor kappa beta (NFkB), and phosphoproteins associated with the Convergence of Hormones, Inflammation and Energy-Rated Factors (CHIEF) pathway; and d) functional and health-related outcomes. Because both tumor tissue and blood will be examined from pre-to-post-intervention, this study will provide exciting new data that can elucidate pathways by which energy balance affects breast cancer progression. Although longer term weight loss is recommended for overweight and obese breast cancer survivors, it is not known whether placing the body in a state of negative energy balance will have a favorable impact on the tumor. If beneficial changes in tumor biology and the host environment occur with short-term, pre-surgical weight loss, this study provides proof of concept that weight loss may offer an acceptable and complementary treatment option that could be combined with standard therapies. | NO | Ductal Carcinoma In Situ|Breast Cancer | BEHAVIORAL: Active Comparator: Progressive Resistance Training (PRT) and a healthy diet|BEHAVIORAL: Experimental: PRT and a healthy diet, plus weight loss | Tumor proliferation, Ki-67 will be used to determine tumor proliferation. Ki-67 is a cancer antigen that is found in growing, dividing cells but is absent in the resting phase of cell growth. This characteristic makes Ki-67 a good tumor marker. This test is done on a sample of tumor tissue, to help predict prognosis. High levels of Ki-67 indicate an aggressive tumor and predict a poor prognosis. High scores mean that the cancer cells are growing and dividing at a rapid pace. The Ki-67 scores will be compared between arms., Baseline to Time of Surgery|Weight, Baseline to Time of Surgery|Feasibility, Enroll 40 subjects within 2-year study, retain \>80% of the sample and completion \>70% of contact sessions., Baseline to Time of Surgery | Body Composition, Via Dual Energy Absorptiometry (DXA), Baseline to Time of Surgery|Waist Circumference, Baseline to Time of Surgery|Tumor markers, Tumor Markers on the CHIEF (Convergence of Hormonal, Inflammatory and Energy-related Factors) Pathway, e.g., Insulin Receptor, Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF-alpha), Nuclear Factor Kappa Beta (NFKB), caspase-3, as well as various phosphoproteins., Baseline to Time of Surgery|Serum Biomarkers, Insulin, leptin, Sex Hormone Binding Globulin, VEGF, TNF-alpha, Baseline to Time of Surgery|Gene expression, Select genes on the CHIEF pathway as well as \~47,231 curated and putative genes and expressed sequence tags (ESTs), Baseline to Time of Surgery|Dietary Intake, 24-hour recalls to assess kcal intake as well as intake of fat, protein, and carbohydrate and diet quality, Baseline to Time of Surgery|Physical Activity, Assessed via accelerometry as well as via questionnaire, Baseline to Time of Surgery|Quality of Life, Using the FACT-B, Baseline to Time of Surgery|Cardiorespiratory Fitness, Sub-maximal testing and a modified version of the Naughton Protocol, Baseline to Time of Surgery | University of Alabama at Birmingham | FEMALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | NA | 32 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: SINGLE (OUTCOMES_ASSESSOR)|Primary Purpose: SUPPORTIVE_CARE | R21CA178359-01A1 | 2014-07 | 2018-07 | 2018-07 | 2014-08-25 | 2018-08-31 | University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, Alabama, 35294, United States | ||||

It is comprised of 12 items that capture patient responses on 7 concepts: daily activities, healing \& pain, mood \& self-confidence, social concerns, physical appearance, memory \& concern about the future. These items are measured on a 5- point Likert-type scale assessing how often or how much each item has been related to the patient’s Cushing’s disease in the previous 4 weeks. The raw score is calculated by summing the individual item scores prior to being standardized so that the total score ranges from 0 to 100. Content reliability, sensitivity to change \& psychometric properties have been validated in patients with Cushing’s disease. Patients were asked to complete the questionnaire prior to clinical assessments being undertaken. Increases from baseline are indicative of an improvement., Baseline, Week (W) 48, W72, Last available assessment|Actual Change From Baseline in Patient-Reported Outcomes: Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II), BDI-II is a patient-reported instrument developed to measure the severity of depression in adults \& adolescents aged 13 years \& older. It is designed to be completed by the patient on paper \& takes approximately 5 minutes to complete. The BDI-II consists of 21 items designed to assess the intensity of depression in clinical \& normal patients in the preceding 2 weeks. Items are rated on a 4-point severity scale of 0 (‘not at all’) to 3 (‘extreme’ form of each symptom) with differing response options for each item. A global score ranging from 0 to 63 is calculated with a higher score representing a greater level of depression. The following scoring guidelines for interpretation of BDI-II have been suggested (Smarr, 2011): Minimal range =0-13, Mild depression =14-19, Moderate depression =20-28 and Severe depression = 29-63. Patients were asked to complete the questionnaire prior to clinical assessments being undertaken.

NCT02157974 | Liver and Fat Regulation in Overweight Adolescent Girls | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02157974 | APPLE | Women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) have increased rates of hepatic steatosis compared to weight similar women with regular menses. It is unclear if this is related to high testosterone or insulin resistance. The investigators will assess hepatic glucose release, rates of lipolysis and hepatic de novo lipogenesis in the fasted and postprandial state to determine if alterations in the processes contribute to hepatic steatosis. Participants will be overweight, sedentary girls with or without PCOS. Those with PCOS will either be medication naive, or must be taking metformin or combined oral contraceptives (COCPs) for a period of at least 6 months prior to study procedures. | YES | Hepatic Steatosis|Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome|Obesity | DRUG: Byetta 5Mcg Pen Injection | Hepatic Glucose Release, Hepatic glucose release will be measured by the rate of appearance of a glucose tracer. Glucose rate of appearance reflects the amount of glucose being release by primarily the liver during fasting. A higher glucose rate of appearance is often seen with dysglycemia, Measured up to 4 months from enrollment | Hepatic Phosphate Concentrations, Hepatic phosphate relative concentrations will be measured with 31 phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The ratio of the following will be reported over total phosphate concentration: Phosphodiesterase (PDE), phosphomonoester (PME), Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), Inorganic Phosphate (Pi),Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), Uridine diphosphate glucose (UDPG), Measured up to 4 months from enrollment|Rates of Lipolysis, Rate of lipolysis will be measured by the rate of appearance of a glycerol tracer. Glycerol rate of appearance reflects the amount of glycerol being released into the blood stream as a results of lipolysis. Higher rates of lipolysis are thought to be associated with insulin resistance., Measured up to 4 months from enrollment|Hepatic Fat Fraction, Amount of fat in the liver measured by MRI and calculated via the Dixon method as the proton density hepatic fat fraction, which ranges from 0-75%. Greater than 5% is considered extra fat in the liver., Measured up to 4 months from enrollment|Hepatic de Novo Lipogenesis, Hepatic de novo lipogenesis will be measured by with an acetate tracer by mass spectroscopy. De novo lipogenesis can contribute to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, so having a lower value is better., Measured up to 4 months from enrollment | Whole Body Insulin Sensitivity, Participants will undergo a 75 gram oral glucose tolerance test, and whole body insulin sensitivity will be expressed as Si, calculated via the oral minimal model using SAMM II software. This software uses participant weight, glucose and insulin concentrations at various time points during the oral glucose tolerance test to calculate the participant insulin sensitivity. The higher the Si value means more insulin sensitivity., Measured up to 4 months from enrollment|Sleep Quality, Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI) will be measured using WatchPAT. In children and adolescents the scale that will be used is AHI\>5 is considered mild sleep apnea. The higher the AHI, indicates more severe sleep apnea.

NCT02122380 | The Effect of Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 Inhibition on Growth Hormone Secretion in Women With Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02122380 | Adults with abdominal obesity are at high risk for cardiovascular disease and also exhibit diminished growth hormone (GH) secretion; the latter further contributes to the development of visceral adiposity, impaired fibrinolysis and inflammation.Growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH), the primary stimulus for endogenous GH secretion, is a substrate of dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4); inhibition of DPP4 with the currently available anti-diabetic therapy, sitagliptin, may therefore increase GH secretion by decreasing the degradation of GHRH. The proposed research will test the hypothesis that chronic sitagliptin therapy will enhance GH secretion and vascular function while improving glucose tolerance in patients with impaired GH secretion who are at risk for the development of diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease, specifically obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome. | YES | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome | DRUG: Sitagliptin|DRUG: Placebo | Mean Overnight Growth Hormone Levels, Growth hormone levels were determined every 10 minutes from 8 PM until 8 AM during the inpatient visit on the last day of each treatment.

Baseline venous blood samples of insulin were obtained prior to ingestion of oral glucose solution (time 0). Insulin levels were then obtained through a peripheral IV line every 15 minutes for 270 minutes after glucose solution is swallowed. Early insulin secretion was determined by calculating area under the curve using data (i.e. insulin levels) obtained at baseline (time 0), 15 minutes and 30 minutes., During Outpatient Visit (after 2 weeks of therapy) during placebo and sitagliptin treatment periods. Insulin levels were obtained at time 0, 15 and 30 minutes following 75 gram glucose ingestion.|Area Under the Curve (AUC) for Blood Glucoses During 75 Gram Oral Glucose Tolerance Test, Oral glucose tolerance testing was performed with 75 grams of glucose solution.

NCT02105428 | Potential Impact of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome on Protein Modifications and Accumulation | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02105428 | A goal of this study is to use a novel methodology to determine whether insulin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is related to the accumulation of proteins with modifications. This could lead to future research to determine if these modifications interfere with their proper function. Additionally, the investigators will determine how protein quality is affected by exercise training. Aerobic exercise enhances the endogenous oxidant buffering systems which may minimize oxidative damage to proteins. The investigators propose that aerobic exercise minimizes the accrual of modified proteins by increasing the synthesis of new proteins, but also by increasing the degradation and removal of old and damaged proteins. Based on our previous studies the investigators observed that insulin affects plasma protein synthesis and aerobic exercise improves insulin sensitivity not only in muscle but also in liver. The investigators therefore propose that aerobic exercise and related increase in insulin sensitivity (and decline in insulin levels) will reduce accumulation of old and modified skeletal muscle and plasma proteins leading to improved function. | NO | Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)|Insulin Resistance|Overweight|Obese | BEHAVIORAL: Aerobic Exercise Training | Change in insulin sensitivity, To determine the effect of 12 weeks of aerobic exercise training or sedentary behavior on insulin sensitivity measured by a 3 hour hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp and response to a mixed-meal., Measured before and after 12 weeks | Protein modifications and accumulation, Alterations in protein modifications and accumulation will be measured by a novel methodology developed within our laboratory.

NCT02103140 | An Exercise RCT Targeting African-American Women With Metabolic Syndrome and High Risk for Breast Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02103140 | Among African-American women, in whom metabolic syndrome (MetS) is very prevalent and breast cancer mortality rates are high, it is hypothesized that intervening on MetS to improve the MetS profile may prove to be a means to reduce breast cancer risk. Specific recommendations for breast cancer prevention are now focused on maintaining a healthy weight via increased physical activity levels, and losing weight if overweight or obese. This pilot project compares two exercise interventions: a supervised facility-based and a home-based exercise intervention to a control group in African-American women with metabolic syndrome who are at high risk for breast cancer. This study is a 6-month three-arm RCT to assess the impact of the exercise interventions on biomarkers related to obesity, insulin-related pathways, inflammation, hormones, and micro-RNAs. The specific aim of the proposed study is to compare the impact of a supervised facility-based and a home-based exercise intervention on obesity, metabolic syndrome and known breast cancer biomarkers in postmenopausal African-American women with metabolic syndrome who are at increased risk of breast cancer. | NO | Metabolic Syndrome|Obesity | BEHAVIORAL: Facility-based Exercise|BEHAVIORAL: Home-based Exercise | Waist circumference, Reduction in waist circumference, 6 months|Body Mass Index, Reduction in body mass index, 6 months|Biomarkers of breast cancer risk – biomarkers of inflammation, Serum IL-6, TNF-alpha, High sensitivity CRP, 6 months|Biomarkers of breast cancer risk – biomarkers of insulin pathway, Fasting glucose, seruminsulin, IGF-1, IGFBP-3, 6 months|Biomarkers of breast cancer risk – adipokines, Serum leptin and adiponectin, 6 months|Metabolic syndrome, Greater improvements in metabolic syndrome and metabolic syndrome components, 6 months | Cardiorespiratory fitness, VO2Max using the Bruce treadmill protocol, 6 months|Body composition, Measured using DEXA scan: fat mass, lean mass, 6 months|Health-related Quality of Life, Measured using the SF-36 questionnaire, 6 months | Georgetown University | FEMALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | NA | 213 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: DOUBLE (PARTICIPANT, INVESTIGATOR)|Primary Purpose: PREVENTION | 2012-012 Georgetown Lombardi | 2012-01 | 2023-09 | 2025-12 | 2014-04-03 | 2024-02-20 | Georgetown Lombardi Office of Minority Health community site, Washington, District of Columbia, 20003, United States | |||||
NCT02095184 | GCC 1366: Anti-Proliferative Response to NeoAdjuvant AIs in Overweight and Obese Patients | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02095184 | More than three quarter of patients with breast cancer are treated by hormone pills called tamoxifen and aromatase inhibitors (AIs). AIs are drugs that stop female hormone production. This hormone production mostly happens in fat, muscle, and breast tissue in postmenopausal women. The female hormone estrogen is an important hormone for the growth of breast cancer cells. Anastrozole (Arimidex®) and Letrozole (Femara®) are AIs that are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). They have been used since 2005 to treat women with early stage breast cancer. When given before surgery (neoadjuvant), both anastrozole and letrozole have been shown to successfully shrink breast cancer tumors in most patients. In over 50% of patients, anastrozole and letrozole when given for about 4 months also helped to improve surgery outcomes. On top of that, whether or not a patient responds to anastrozole and letrozole before surgery can help the doctor decide whether that patient needs additional chemotherapy. One of the things may influence the level of hormone is body weight. It has been previously shown that postmenopausal women with higher body fat have higher level of female hormone as well as an increased risk of breast cancer. This is likely due to an increase in aromatase activity in the fatty tissue. However, at the current time AIs are used at the same doses in all women with breast cancer no matter whether they have different body weight. Currently, we do not know for certain whether the same doses of AIs work as well in patients with higher body fat compared to patients with less body fat. The purpose of this study is to see if women with higher body fat respond differently to AI treatment compared to women with lower body fat. | NO | Breast Cancer | DRUG: Anastrozole|DRUG: Letrozole | Percent change in proliferative index (Ki67) after treatment with the standard dose anastrozole or letrozole in normal, obese, and overweight patients, Core biopsy, 2-4 weeks Post-treatment | To evaluate differences in baseline GP88 level, GP88-6ml Blood Serum Sample, B,0-Prior to starting anastrozole or letrozole|To evaluate differences in baseline GP88 level, GP88-6ml Blood Serum Sample, B,1-On the day of surgery or within 3 days of surgery|To evaluate differences in baseline GP88 level, GP88-6ml Blood Serum Sample, B,2-obtained 2-4 weeks after initiation of AI therapy( for persons rec. extended neoadjuvant tx)|To assess estradiol levels at baseline and after treatment (in primary ER positive breast tumors), 10ml Blood Serum Sample, Baseline|To assess estradiol levels at baseline and after treatment (in primary ER positive breast tumors), 10ml Blood Serum Sample, 2-4 weeks Post treatment|To evaluate the association of AI-induced Ki67 response, (IHC)–Immunohistochemistry, Baseline|To evaluate the association of AI-induced Ki67 response, (IHC)–Immunohistochemistry, 2-4 weeks Post-Treatment|To evaluate differences in Oncotype Dx, Tumor Tissue Assay, Baseline(T0)|To evaluate differences in Oncotype Dx, Tumor Tissue Assay, 2-4 Post-treatment | Metabolomic Profiling, 10ml Blood Serum Sample, B-0|Metabolomic Profiling, 10ml Blood Serum Sample, B-1|Metabolomic Profiling, 10ml Blood Serum Sample, B-2 | University of Maryland, Baltimore | FEMALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | NA | 90 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: NON_RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: TREATMENT | HP-00060250 | 2015-05-25 | 2024-07-24 | 2025-03-20 | 2014-03-24 | 2024-08-05 | University of Maryland Greenebaum Cancer Center, Baltimore, Maryland, 21201, United States | ||||

NCT02071251 | A Study to Evaluate a Quality Improvement Intervention to Reduce Wound Separation Rates in Obese Gynecologic Oncology Service Patients Undergoing Abdominal Surgery | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02071251 | Approximately 500,000 surgical site infections occur annually in the US. These lead to worse patient quality of life, more outpatient and emergency room visits, readmissions and home services, with an estimated increase in costs of at least $3500 per complication. Surgical site infections are associated with increasing body mass index. There is limited and conflicting data of the utility of multiple surgical interventions to decrease the risk of surgical site complications. The investigators explored the effect of a prospective care pathway for closure of vertical abdominal wounds on patient’s wound complications. | NO | Wound Complications|Wound Infection|Wound Separation | PROCEDURE: Prospective wound complication protocol | Wound complication, The primary outcome for our study was a wound complication within eight weeks of laparotomy.

NCT02065687 | Paclitaxel and Carboplatin With or Without Metformin Hydrochloride in Treating Patients With Stage III, IV, or Recurrent Endometrial Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02065687 | This randomized phase II/III trial studies how well paclitaxel, carboplatin, and metformin hydrochloride works and compares it to paclitaxel, carboplatin, and placebo in treating patients with endometrial cancer that is stage III, IV, or has come back. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Metformin hydrochloride may help paclitaxel and carboplatin work better by making cancer cells more sensitive to the drugs. It is not yet known whether paclitaxel and carboplatin is more effective with or without metformin hydrochloride in treating endometrial cancer. | YES | Endometrial Adenocarcinoma|Endometrial Clear Cell Adenocarcinoma|Endometrial Serous Adenocarcinoma|Endometrial Undifferentiated Carcinoma|Recurrent Uterine Corpus Carcinoma|Stage III Uterine Corpus Cancer AJCC v7|Stage IIIA Uterine Corpus Cancer AJCC v7|Stage IIIB Uterine Corpus Cancer AJCC v7|Stage IIIC Uterine Corpus Cancer AJCC v7|Stage IV Uterine Corpus Cancer AJCC v7|Stage IVA Uterine Corpus Cancer AJCC v7|Stage IVB Uterine Corpus Cancer AJCC v7 | DRUG: Carboplatin|OTHER: Laboratory Biomarker Analysis|DRUG: Metformin Hydrochloride|DRUG: Paclitaxel|OTHER: Placebo Administration|OTHER: Quality-of-Life Assessment|OTHER: Questionnaire Administration | Progression-free Survival (PFS) (Phase II), Time until disease progression, death, or date of last contact.

NCT02028221 | Phase II Study of Metformin for Reduction of Obesity-Associated Breast Cancer Risk | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02028221 | Overweight and obesity are well established risk factors for breast cancer that develop after menopause. The increased postmenopausal breast cancer risk in women who are overweight or obese is likely to be attributed to multiple metabolic disturbances. Metformin is a commonly used medication in diabetics to stabilize blood sugar. Association studies and laboratory studies have shown its potential to reduce the risk for development of cancer, including breast cancer. Recent pilot clinical studies in breast cancer patients suggest that metformin may only be effective in overweight or obese women with metabolic disturbances. We propose to conduct a clinical study of metformin in overweight or obese premenopausal women with metabolic disturbances. Study participants will be randomly assigned to receive metformin or placebo for 12 months. The study will evaluate whether metformin can result in favorable changes in risk features that have been associated with increased breast cancer risk. The risk features that will be examined in our study include breast density, certain proteins and hormones, products of body metabolism, and body weight and composition. The study should help determine the potential breast cancer preventive activity of metformin in a growing population at risk for multiple diseases. | YES | Breast Cancer Prevention | DRUG: Metformin|DRUG: Placebo | Change in Breast Density at 6 Months, change of dense breast volume at 6 months, baseline, 6 months|Change in Breast Density at 12 Months, Change in dense breast volume at 12 months, Baseline, 12 months | Change From Baseline in Serum Insulin Levels at 6 and 12 Months, baseline, 6 months, 12 months|Change From Baseline in Serum IGF-1 to IGFBP-3 Ratio at 6 and 12 Months, baseline, 6 months, 12 months|Change From Baseline in Serum Testosterone Levels at 6 and 12 Months, baseline, 6 months, 12 months|Change From Baseline in Serum Leptin to Adiponectin Ratio at 6 and 12 Months, baseline, 6 months, 12 months|Change From Baseline in Body Weight at 6 and 12 Months, baseline, 6 months, 12 months|Change From Baseline in Waist Circumference at 6 and 12 Months, baseline, 6 months, 12 months|Change From Baseline in Serum IGF-2 Levels at 6 and 12 Months, baseline, 6 months, 12 months | Change From Baseline in Plasma Metabolomics Profile at 6 and 12 Months, baseline, 6 months, 12 months|Change From Baseline in Metabolomics Profile in Nipple Aspirate Fluid at 6 and 12 Months, baseline, 6 months, 12 months | University of Arizona | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | FEMALE | ADULT | PHASE2 | 151 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: DOUBLE (PARTICIPANT, INVESTIGATOR)|Primary Purpose: PREVENTION | 1300000596|1R01CA172444-01A1 | 2014-03-07 | 2018-11-30 | 2022-06-14 | 2014-01-07 | 2021-03-12 | 2023-06-27 | University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona, 85719, United States | Study Protocol and Statistical Analysis Plan, https://cdn.clinicaltrials.gov/large-docs/21/NCT02028221/Prot_SAP_000.pdf | |
NCT02015078 | Black Family Eating Behaviors Study | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02015078 | Despite broad awareness of the role that diet plays in increasing obesity risk, adherence to public health recommendations for maintaining healthy eating is low. Insights gained from weight loss intervention trials find that trial participants report difficulty in restricting calories, dissatisfaction with the pace of weight loss, inability to control eating, low palatability of recommended foods and strong food cravings. Indeed, recent systematic reviews provide empirical support that these subjective experiences that trial participants describe likely represent eating-related traits or phenotypes . While amassing evidence supports individual variation in these eating-related traits, to date there has been no systematic effort to characterize robust eating-related phenotypes. Proposed is a Sub-study initially planned to be piggy-backed on a planned Study being conducted by investigators at the University of North Carolina (UNC– Linnan, Dilworth- Anderson \& Evans). The UNC Parent Study was a feasibility study using community-based participatory research (CBPR) approaches to explore possible intervention strategies aimed to reduce the burden of chronic disease and cancer among African American families. The NHGRI-led eating behavior Sub-study is proposed to be integrated with the UNC Parent Study (hereafter referred to as Phase 1). The additional aims of the Sub-study (hereafter referred to as Phase 2) are to gain understanding of whether we can characterize clusters of eating-related behaviors that may be associated with adherence to weight management and weight outcomes. This current protocol lays out the specific qualitative activities planned for Phase 1 which include conducting structured interviews with Black Family Reunion organizers (N=8) and a sample of reunion participants (N=40). We also describe the larger quantitative survey proposed for Phase 2. Pending the feasibility of the sub-study with the African-American community, we will collect information on eating-related behaviors in a large sample of individuals (N=350). If the initial assessments (Phase1) prove that this is not a viable study to be conducted in that setting, we will consider other population groups and other settings. We are also considering Phase 3 activities if we identify clusters of eating-related phenotypes within individuals. Amended IRB applications will be submitted prior to launching Phase 3. | NO | Cancer|Obesity | Phase 3, To assess whether the occurrence of robust eating- related behavior clusters differ significantly between blood relatives and non-blood relatives (i.e., spouses and unrelated kin)., Completed|Phase 2, To assess whether robust phenotypes of eating-related behaviors (e.g., appetite for palatable foods, disinhibition, pickiness, and new food phobia) can be characterized., Completed|Phase 1, To assess the feasibility of:(a)recruiting African American family reunion-organizers and participants to take part in a health promotion and genetics- related research study.

NCT02001051 | Study of Adrenalectomy Versus Observation for Subclinical Hypercortisolism | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT02001051 | Background: – Adrenal tumors are a common kind of tumor. Some of these secrete extra cortisol into the body, which can lead to diabetes, obesity, and other diseases. Some people with extra cortisol will show symptoms like bruising and muscle weakness. Others will show no signs. This is called subclinical hypercortisolism. Some of these adrenal tumors become malignant. Researchers want to know the best way to treat people with subclinical hypercortisolism. They want to know if removing the tumor by surgery reduces the long-term effects of the disease. Objectives: – To see if removing an adrenal tumor by surgery improves blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis, or cholesterol, and cancer detection. Eligibility: – Adults 18 and older with an adrenal tumor and high cortisol levels. Design: * Participants will be screened with medical history, blood tests, and a computed tomography (CT) scan. * Participants will have a baseline visit. They will have blood and urine tests and 7 scans. For most scans, a substance is injected through a tube in the arm. Participants will lie still on a table in a machine that takes images. * Participants will have surgery to remove their tumor. Some will have surgery right away. Some will have surgery 6 months later, after 2 follow-up appointments. * Participants will have 4 follow-up visits in the first year after surgery. They will have 2 visits the second year, then yearly visits for 3 years. At each follow-up visit, they will have scans and blood tests. | YES | Subclinical Hypercortisolism|Cushing Syndrome|Adrenal Neoplasm | PROCEDURE: Adrenalectomy|OTHER: Observation | Proportion of Patients That Have Normalization and/or Improvement of Metabolic Complications After Adrenalectomy, Normalization and/or improvement of metabolic complications including hypertension, diabetes, osteoporosis, hypercholesterolemia and/or obesity after adrenalectomy is defined as 35% of patients who improve with surgery versus 5% who do not have surgery., Assessed at 6 months|Count of Participants With Serious and Non-serious Adverse Events Assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria in Adverse Events (CTCAE v4.0), Here is the count of participants with serious and non-serious adverse events assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria in Adverse Events (CTCAE v4.0).

NCT01927432 | Ultrasound Characterization of Ovarian Follicle Dynamics in Women With Amenorrhea | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01927432 | In women with regular menstrual cycles, antral follicles have been shown to grow in synchronous cohorts, called waves, 2-3 times in a menstrual cycle. It is unknown whether these waves of follicle growth also occur in women with amenorrhea or if there is abnormal/absent follicle growth. Further, oligo- or amenorrhea has been associated with metabolic disturbances, such as over- or under-nutrition, central obesity and insulin resistance. Yet, mechanisms whereby metabolic factors influence folliculogenesis in women are poorly understood. To understand potential mechanisms, the investigators plan to characterize follicle growth dynamics in women with or without regular menstrual cycles and identifying key metabolic differences in these women which may be important in normal follicle development and fertility. | NO | Oligomenorrhea|Amenorrhea|Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) | Follicle number, The number of all antral follicles in each ovary will be determined using ultrasonography for each participant.

NCT01911247 | Preoperative Window Study of Metformin for the Treatment of Endometrial Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01911247 | The overall goal of this proposal is to investigate the potential benefit of metformin as a novel therapy for the treatment of endometrial cancer. Investigators will evaluate the effect of short-term metformin treatment on the endometrium of obese women with endometrial cancer by comparing each patient’s endometrial biopsy before treatment with metformin to their post-treatment hysterectomy specimen. Participants: Obese women who are to undergo surgical staging for endometrial cancer will also receive short-term treatment (1-4 weeks) with metformin that will continue until the day prior to surgical staging. The effect of metformin on proliferation, apoptosis and downstream signaling pathways will be compared between pre-treatment endometrial biopsies and post-treatment hysterectomy specimens. Tissue microarrays will be constructed and immunohistochemstry performed to evaluate proliferation, apoptosis and changes in critical signaling pathways mediated by metformin, and these findings will be correlated with our in vitro preclinical studies. Fresh tissue will also be obtained, and Western immunoblotting will be used to assess expression of the phosphorylated forms of the downstream targets of metformin. The hypothesis is that treatment with metformin will result in a decrease in proliferative markers and an increase in markers of apoptosis in the endometrial cancer tumors. AMPK phosphorylation and inhibition of critical downstream targets of the mTOR pathway will be seen in the post-treatment hysterectomy specimens. Metabolomic profiling will also be performed of tumors and associated biofluids (i.e. serum and urine) before and after treatment with metformin to identify potential biomarkers of response to this therapy. | NO | Endometrial Cancer | DRUG: Metformin | Change in Ki-67 mean levels between pre-metformin treatment endometrial biopsies and post-metformin treatment hysterectomy specimens, The primary null hypothesis of interest, that there is no difference between the pre- and post-treatment Ki-67 mean levels will be evaluated using a paired t-test (two-sided, α\<0.05 level).

NCT01896050 | Loss of Grip Strength, BMI, and Adjuvant Endocrine Therapy Breast Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01896050 | LOGRIBMET | Early stage hormone receptor positive breast cancer is typically treated with adjuvant endocrine therapy in order to decrease risk of breast cancer recurrence and to improve overall survival from the disease. Typical agents used for treatment include tamoxifen and the aromatase inhibitors. In postmenopausal women, aromatase inhibitor therapy is increasingly common because it is associated with fewer long-term serious toxicities compared to tamoxifen. However, aromatase inhibitors cause arthralgias in 40-50% of patients, which can influence adherence to therapy and can lead to treatment discontinuation in a minority of cases. The mechanism underlying development of this toxicity remains unclear, and predictors of who will develop these symptoms remain undefined. Initial reports suggest that grip strength decreases during aromatase inhibitor therapy, and that body-mass index may influence development of this symptom. Therefore, this longitudinal study has been developed to determine change in grip strength over time in women treated with aromatase inhibitors and tamoxifen, as well as to identify potential associations between change in grip strength and BMI. Patient self-reported symptoms will also be collected. A total of 115 women with early stage breast cancer who are initiating therapy with either an aromatase inhibitor or tamoxifen will be enrolled. | YES | Breast Cancer|Arthralgia|Obesity | DRUG: anastrozole, letrozole, exemestane|DRUG: Tamoxifen | Effect of Change in Body Mass Index on Change in Grip Strength With Aromatase Inhibitor Therapy, Change in BMI between baseline and 12 months of endocrine therapy, baseline and 12 months | Effect of Medication on Change in Grip Strength, Effect of either aromatase inhibitor or tamoxifen therapy on change in grip strength between baseline and 12 months, baseline and 12 months|Association Between Baseline Body Mass Index and Discontinuation of Aromatase Inhibitor Therapy Within the First 12 Months, Associations between baseline BMI and whether or not aromatase inhibitor-treated patients discontinued treatment by 12 months.

NCT01869348 | IMPACT: Inactivity Monitoring and Physical Activity Controlled Trial | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01869348 | IMPACT | As individuals age, their physical activity decreases and sedentary time increases. Even small changes in these two behaviors can greatly decrease risks for several major health problems, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and many cancers. Studies that use pedometers to encourage walking have successfully increased physical activity, but do not address sedentary behaviors such as television watching. The investigators propose to use a novel pedometer-like device (Jawbone Up) that encourages both increased physical activity and decreased sedentary time. First, the investigators will recruit 10 adults to participate in a brief intervention for six weeks. They will wear the wrist-based activity monitor and use a mini-tablet device to see feedback on their activity and sedentary time. They will also receive brief counseling weekly. The investigators will use this first study to investigate the basic feasibility of the intervention materials. Next, the investigators will recruit 20 adults and randomize them to receive the intervention for 12 weeks or to a waiting list. Here, the investigators will test the intervention with refinements made based on participant responses from the first small study.

It affects 5-10% of adolescent girls and women capable of having children. Polycystic ovary syndrome is associated with missed menstrual periods, hormonal imbalance, being overweight, and with a form of diabetes. Girls with polycystic ovary syndrome may have a breathing problem known as “sleep apnea.” Sleep apnea may cause a person to stop breathing for short periods of time while sleeping. People with polycystic ovary syndrome are thirty times more likely to develop sleep apnea than those who do not have PCOS. If sleep apnea is not treated, it may lead to daytime sleepiness, poor school performance, high blood pressure, heart disease and diabetes. The purpose of this study is to understand how insulin function is affected in presence of sleep apnea in girls with polycystic ovary syndrome between 13-21 years of age as compared to girls with PCOS without sleep apnea. Insulin is one of the hormones made in your body to convert food into energy. In people with increase weight body cannot use insulin properly.

NCT01728506 | An Internet-based Weight Loss and Exercise Intervention for Breast Cancer Survivors | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01728506 | iWEB | The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of a behavioral weight loss and exercise intervention delivered via the internet at different cancer centers in New England. The investigators hypothesize that participants will lose 7% of their body weight. The research is being done because many women who are treated for breast cancer are overweight and treatment for breast cancer is often accompanied by weight gain. Individuals who are overweight may be more likely to have their breast cancer come back. Also women who exercise at least three hours a week seem to have less chance of their cancer coming back. The investigators hope to identify an effective weight loss and exercise intervention for breast cancer survivors that can be easily accessed by many people. This study is designed to determine the feasibility of conducting a distantly delivered-weight loss and exercise intervention for patients who have been treated for breast cancer at three cancer centers, and to evaluate the efficacy of an Internet-based behavioral weight loss and exercise intervention delivered to overweight/obese breast cancer survivors in three New England locations. Participants will be recruited from three New England Cancer Centers – the Vermont Cancer Center, Norris Cotton Cancer Center at Dartmouth University and the University of Massachusetts Cancer Center. Participants from each center will undergo baseline assessments that include diet assessment, body measurements (height, weight, etc), a physical activity assessment and be asked to complete a series of questionnaires. Patients that meet the minimum requirements will be enrolled on the study. They will participate in weekly on-line “chats” about behavioral and diet modifications led by a qualified facilitator. Participants will also engage in increasing amounts of aerobic activity (typically walking) throughout the course of the intervention. The intervention lasts 6 months. At the end of those 6 months, participants will have the same assessments that were collected at baseline. Following the collection of those assessments, participants will have completed the study. | NO | Breast Cancer | BEHAVIORAL: Weight Loss and Exercise | Feasibility, Feasibility will be determined by length of time required to obtain approval at all three sites, Numbers approached vs. numbers who participate in the study., Change from baseline fesability at 6 months|Change in diet measures, Efficacy will be measured using total calories and fat grams before and after the intervention, Change from baseline diet measures at 6 months|Change in anthropometric measures, Change in Weight, BMI, body fat percentage before and after the intervention, Change from baseline anthropometrics at 6 months|Change in active energy expenditure (ie exercise), exercise will be measured using an accelerometer before and after the intervention, Change from baseline active energy expenditure at 6 months | Change in inflammatory biomarkers, Change in Il-6, hsCRP before and after the intervention, Change from baseline inflammatory biomarkers at 6 months|Change in insulin resistance markers, Change in Homeostatic model assessment to estimate beta cell function and insulin resistance before and after the intervention, Change from baseline insulin resistance markers at 6 months | University of Vermont | Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center|University of Massachusetts, Worcester | FEMALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | NA | 48 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: NA|Intervention Model: SINGLE_GROUP|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: SUPPORTIVE_CARE | VCC 1109 | 2012-10 | 2015-07 | 2015-07 | 2012-11-19 | 2015-05-18 | University of Massachusetts, Worcester, Massachusetts, 01655, United States|Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center, Hannover, New Hampshire, 03755, United States|Unviersity of Vermont/Fletcher Allen Health Care, Burlington, Vermont, 05405, United States | |||

NCT01716429 | Healthy Eating for Reproductive Health: Greenville | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01716429 | HER Health | This study will be a 6-month intervention that is examining how different dietary approached may be useful for women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) who are attempting pregnancy, particularly by measuring changes in weight. Participants will be randomly assigned to following one of two dietary approaches for weight loss: 1) a low-calorie approach to weight loss (reducing caloric intake by approximately 500 calories per day) or 2) a low-fat, low-glycemic index vegan diet. A vegan diet is one that does not contain any animal products (no meat, fish, poultry, eggs, or dairy) but emphasizes plant-based foods, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes/beans. In addition, this diet will be low-glycemic index, which means the consumer will be asked to favor foods that don’t cause a quick rise in blood sugar (for example, favoring oatmeal over cornflakes for breakfast). Participants will receive counseling and supporting materials on the dietary approach the participants are assigned to follow. Both diets are safe and have shown to be effective ways to assist with achieving a healthy weight. The investigators hypothesize that both groups will see improvements in weight and fertility with possible greater improvements seen among participants in the vegan group. | NO | Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome|Infertility|Obesity|Overweight | BEHAVIORAL: Vegan diet|BEHAVIORAL: Low calorie diet | Changes in body weight, 6 months | Pregnancy rates, 6 months | Menstrual cycle length, 6 months | University of South Carolina | Prisma Health-Upstate | FEMALE | ADULT | NA | 0 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: TREATMENT | Pro00019109 | 2012-10 | 2013-09 | 2013-09 | 2012-10-29 | 2019-04-18 | Fertility Center of the Carolinas: Greenville Hospital System, Greenville, South Carolina, 29605, United States | ||

NCT01697566 | An Endometrial Cancer Chemoprevention Study of Metformin | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01697566 | The goal of this clinical research study is to learn about the effects of metformin and/or a program called “lifestyle intervention” on the endometrium (inner lining of the uterus) in post-menopausal women who are also obese (both are risk factors for endometrial cancer). Researchers also want to learn how insulin levels will be affected by metformin, diet and/or exercise. Metformin is designed to treat both diabetes and insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is a condition in which the body makes insulin but does not use it properly. It is often referred to as “pre-diabetes”. Many people with insulin resistance have high levels of both sugar and insulin in their blood at the same time, which have been reported in patients with endometrial cancer. In this study, metformin will be compared to a placebo. A placebo is not a drug. It looks like the study drug but is not designed to treat any disease or illness. It is designed to be compared with a study drug to learn if the study drug has any real effect. Lifestyle intervention is made up of a series of in-person sessions where you meet with a coach to discuss strategies for losing weight and ways to increase physical activity. It also consists of materials designed to help you lose weight and will offer opportunities for supervised exercise. | NO | Gynecology | DRUG: Metformin|OTHER: Placebo|PROCEDURE: Endometrial Biopsy|BEHAVIORAL: Lifestyle Intervention|BEHAVIORAL: Questionnaires | Effect of Metformin and/or Lifestyle Intervention on Biomarkers., Differences in Ki-67 and other biomarkers analyzed using a 2×2 ANOVA.

To date, the Mayo Clinic approach has not been reproduced, and the investigators propose to validate their algorithm at the University of Kentucky utilizing intra-operative consultation (IOC). The preliminary data at the University of Kentucky for IOC and endometrial cancer outcomes suggest that the investigators are well-suited to perform this investigation.

NCT01509066 | Healthy Eating for Reproductive Health (HERHealth) | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01509066 | HERHealth | This study will be a 6-month intervention that is examining how different dietary approached may be useful for women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) who are attempting pregnancy, particularly by measuring changes in weight. Participants will be randomly assigned to following one of two dietary approaches for weight loss: 1) a low-calorie approach to weight loss (reducing caloric intake by approximately 500 calories per day) or 2) a low-fat, low-glycemic index vegan diet. A vegan diet is one that does not contain any animal products (no meat, fish, poultry, eggs, or dairy) but emphasizes plant-based foods, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes/beans. In addition, this diet will be low-glycemic index, which means you will be asked to favor foods that don’t cause a quick rise in blood sugar (for example, favoring oatmeal over cornflakes for breakfast). Participants will receive counseling and supporting materials on the dietary approach you are assigned to follow. Both diets are safe and have shown to be effective ways to assist with achieving a healthy weight. The investigators hypothesize that both groups will see improvements in weight and fertility with possible greater improvements seen among participants in the vegan group. | NO | Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome|Infertility|Obesity|Overweight | OTHER: Diet | Body weight changes, body weight will be assessed at 0, 3, and 6 months, 6 months | Pregnancy rates, We will measure any occurrences of pregnancy over the course of the study, 6 months|Menstrual cycle length, We will measure changes in the length of menstrual cycles over the course of the 6 month study, 6 months | University of South Carolina | Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics | FEMALE | ADULT | NA | 18 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: TREATMENT | Pro00014149 | 2012-01 | 2013-06 | 2013-06 | 2012-01-12 | 2019-04-18 | University of South Carolina, Columbia, South Carolina, 29208, United States | |||

The characteristic hyperandrogenism and anovulation is associated with abnormal neuroendocrine function and insulin resistance. Obesity is a common correlated phenotype of Polycystic ovary syndrome and weight gain worsens the reproductive and metabolic complications. Currently there is no evidence-based treatment plan for infertility in Polycystic ovary syndrome; yet weight loss by dietary restriction and regular exercise are strongly advocated.

NCT01482702 | Impact of Weight Loss Interventions for Overweight Breast Cancer Survivors | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01482702 | VCC0910 | Obesity is an epidemic and the majority of breast cancer survivors are overweight or obese. The American Cancer Society has called for weight loss treatment to be standard of care for overweight women with breast cancer. During therapy women with breast cancer often gain weight and lose lean muscle mass. Overweight breast cancer survivors are more likely to have their cancer come back. The reason why overweight breast cancer survivors are more likely to re-occur has not been well studied, but changes in how insulin works may contribute. Overweight survivors are also at risk for the other chronic diseases associated with obesity. Fortunately, weight losses of as little as 5-7% of baseline body weight can improve risk of chronic disease. An effective behaviorally-based, lifestyle intervention delivered via the internet has been developed at the University of Vermont. This successful intervention has not been tested among breast cancer survivors. Given that women tend to lose muscle mass during cancer therapy the addition of a resistance training component to the weight loss intervention may be important. Therefore the overall goal of this project is to pilot test a proven distantly- delivered behavioral weight loss intervention among overweight breast cancer survivors and to evaluate whether a resistance program results in improvements in lean body mass, while studying how both interventions change insulin sensitivity. Specifically, this project is a randomized, controlled clinical trial designed to test the effectiveness and acceptability of a 6-month behavioral weight loss intervention with and without resistance training. Participants will be randomized to one of two groups: 1) behavioral weight control treatment via the Internet; or 2) behavioral weight control treatment via the Internet plus a resistance training program. Women eligible to participate include overweight breast cancer survivors who are age 50 or older and 6-36 months past receiving chemotherapy. Assessments will be conducted at baseline and six months and will include measures of body weight, muscle mass, adherence to treatment, and insulin sensitivity. | NO | Overweight|Postmenopausal|Breast Cancer | BEHAVIORAL: weight loss intervention|BEHAVIORAL: Weight Loss|BEHAVIORAL: Weight Loss | Identify changes in energy balance and insulin sensitivity parameters in overweight breast cancer survivors after a behavioral weight loss intervention., Primary outcome measures include weight, fat free mass, fat mass, total and active energy expenditure, calorie intake and oral glucose tolence test, Time frame is before & after the intervention.

NCT01459237 | Effects of Hormone Stimulation on Brain Scans for Cushing s Disease | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01459237 | Background: * Cushing s disease can be caused by a tumor of the pituitary gland, a small gland about the size of a pea located at the base of the brain. These tumors produce high levels of hormones, which cause obesity, diabetes, and growth problems. The cure for this type of Cushing s disease is to have surgery that removes the tumor but leaves the pituitary gland alone. Currently, magnetic resonance imaging scans are the best way to find these tumors. However, many of these tumors do not show up on the scan. * Positron emission tomography (PET) scans use radioactive chemicals to light up parts of the body that are more active, such as tumors. Researchers want to try to make the small Cushing s disease tumors more active to help them show up on the scans. A special hormone will be given before the scan to make the tumors more active. Objectives: – To test the use of hormone stimulation to improve brain scans for Cushing s disease tumors. Eligibility: – Individuals at least 8 years of age who will be having surgery to remove Cushing s disease tumors. Design: * Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, blood and urine tests, and imaging studies. * They will have three brain scans before surgery. The first scan is a magnetic resonance imaging scan to show a full picture of the brain. The second and third scans are PET scans. * The first PET scan will be given without the special hormone. The second PET scan will be done more than 24 hours but less than 14 days after the first PET scan. The second PET scan will be given with the special hormone. * Participants will have tumor removal surgery through another study protocol. | NO | Pituitary Neoplasm | DRUG: Acthrel | To determine effect of CRH stimulation on 18F-FDG uptake in high-resolution PET-imaging of ACTH-adenomas in CD., Ongoing | To determine if CRH stimulation (compared to without CRH stimulation) enhances the detection of ACTH-adenomas as demonstrated on 18F-FDG high-resolution PET-imaging in CD., Ongoing|To assess the accuracy and sensitivity of 18F-FDG high-resolution PET-imaging detection of ACTH-adenomas in CD compared to MR-imaging., Ongoing | National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) | ALL | CHILD, ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | EARLY_PHASE1 | 30 | NIH | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: SINGLE_GROUP|Masking: SINGLE (PARTICIPANT)|Primary Purpose: DIAGNOSTIC | 120007|12-N-0007 | 2011-10-11 | 2018-01-30 | 2018-06-12 | 2011-10-25 | 2018-06-14 | National Institutes of Health Clinical Center, 9000 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, Maryland, 20892, United States | |||||

NCT01443156 | The Effects of Work Schedule and Sleep Patterns on Caregivers’ Health | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01443156 | BACKGROUND. Sleep deficiency (not getting enough sleep) is widespread in American adults and can lead to many harmful health outcomes such as a higher risk of obesity, heart disease, and diabetes. Sleep deficiency can also harm cognitive performance, which refers to one’s awareness and thinking ability. Sleep deficiency and sleep-related health issues are of high interest among those who have irregular and/or extended work schedules, because such schedules can interfere with normal biological rhythms of sleepiness and wakefulness. PURPOSE. This study will examine the health and cognitive effects of work schedule and sleep patterns in caregivers (such as nurses, laboratory technicians, and non-clinical hospital staff). The investigators hypothesize that the nontraditional, irregular, and extended work hours common in these professions will have adverse health and cognitive effects. The purposes of this protocol are to: * Enroll caregivers into a one year cohort study on the relationships among work schedule, sleep, diet, chronic disease, and cognitive performance. (A cohort study follows a group of participants over time to see how different behaviors or risk factors affect health.) * Collect data from caregivers on work schedule, sleep, diet, chronic disease, and cognitive performance. * Give personalized information and feedback to caregivers about these health factors. * Educate caregivers about healthy diet and exercise choices. * Collect saliva from caregivers for future research on the role of genes in health. (Specimen collection for genetic testing will be offered as a separate option for study participants.) RECRUITMENT. This study will use the Let’s Get Healthy! health research and education program (OHSU IRB #3694) as a platform for recruitment and data collection. Caregivers will be invited to participate in a Let’s Get Healthy! event and will be given information prior to the event about the cohort study. At the Let’s Get Healthy! event, caregivers will first consent to the anonymous research study (OHSU IRB #3694), in which demographic and health screening data are linked to a random number. Caregivers will then have the option to consent to a cohort study, in which data are no longer anonymous but instead linked to participants’ names and contact information. PROCEDURES. This cohort study piggybacks on procedures already approved for the Let’s Get Healthy! program (OHSU IRB #3694). Let’s Get Healthy! is a study in which participants provide anonymous data at health fairs through any or all of the following manners: short computer surveys on cancer awareness, risk factors, and family history (with immediate feedback given on cancer risk and prevention); short computer surveys on diet and sleep patterns (with immediate printed feedback given); health screening measurements (blood pressure, height, weight, waist circumference, body mass index, body fat percentage); a finger stick to assess sugar and fat levels in blood; and a mouthwash swish to provide a saliva specimen. However, this cohort study (OHSU IRB #7542) will make the following changes and additions: * Personal health data, instead of being anonymous, will be linked to participants’ names and contact information (for follow-up data collection). * Let’s Get Healthy! events will include cognitive performance tests, a preventative-care survey, and a work schedule survey. * Participants will provide data not only at an initial Let’s Get Healthy! event, but also at a follow-up event and during the time period between events. Between events, participants will do the surveys on work schedule, diet, and sleep, and they will complete cognitive performance tests. * There will be a separate consent process for participants to provide a fully identifiable saliva specimen. DATA ANALYSIS. Participants’ health data will be fully identifiable at the time of data collection but will be coded and stored in a physically separate location from the identifiable information. The link between identifiable information and coded health information will be stored on a password protected computer, and all identifiable information will be deleted upon completion of data analyses. Data will be analyzed to explore relationships among work schedule, sleep, diet, body composition, metabolic health, chronic disease, and cognitive performance in caregivers. Genetic relationships with these factors will be analyzed in those who provided a saliva specimen during entry visit data collection. | NO | Obesity|Diabetes|Cancer|Metabolic Syndrome|Sleep Deprivation | Cognitive performance, Brief computerized tasks of attention, vigilance, and memory., Up to one year|Body Composition, Height, weight, waist circumference, body fat percentage, body mass index, Up to one year|Diet, Brief computerized survey on fruit, vegetable, and fat intake., Up to one year|Work Schedule, Survey on the quantity and distribution of work hours., Up to one year | Blood Pressure, Up to one year|Blood cholesterol, glucose, triglycerides, Fingerstick test, Up to one year|Breast, skin, and lung cancer prevention behaviors and knowledge, Brief computerized questionnaires., Up to one year|Preventive care habits, Brief survey on basic health behaviors and use of preventive care resources., Up to one year | Oregon Health and Science University | ALL | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | 211 | OTHER | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | OHSU eIRB7542 | 2012-01 | 2013-02 | 2014-01 | 2011-09-29 | 2023-11-02 | St. Charles Medical Center, Bend, Oregon, 97701, United States | |||||||

NCT01441011 | Rural Women Connecting for Better Health | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01441011 | Women who are obese at breast cancer diagnosis have a 1.5 to 2.5 increased risk of recurrence and death compared to their normal weight counterparts. Moreover, weight gain and decreased physical activity are common after diagnosis and also increase the likelihood of breast cancer recurrence and death. Rural women suffer from health disparities in breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. Women of the most rural counties also have the highest prevalence of obesity compared to urban women. To address these disparities, the overarching objective of this proposal is to develop a clinically effective and cost efficient strategy for delivering a weight control intervention to rural breast cancer survivors. Group phone-based treatment via conference call is a novel treatment delivery approach that the investigators have shown to be effective for initial weight loss among rural breast cancer survivors and more effective than the standard individual phone-based approach among rural women. This innovative method of providing group treatment addresses access barriers in rural areas and may be especially ideal for rural breast cancer survivors because it provides social support in conjunction with a level of anonymity. However, the impact of group phone counseling during extended care for weight loss maintenance beyond 6 months remains unknown. Weight loss maintenance is the more challenging phase of treatment when weight regain is common, and this regain presents a potential risk for breast cancer recurrence. This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effects of group phone-based treatment for weight loss maintenance among rural breast cancer survivors, compared to an established mail-based education comparison condition, subsequent to a 6 month group phone-based weight loss phase for both conditions. In addition to the intervention impact on weight loss maintenance, the study will provide estimates of incremental cost-effectiveness per kg loss between the two conditions and the impact on secondary outcomes including quality of life, breast cancer risk biomarkers, dietary intake, and physical activity. | NO | Breast Cancer|Obesity | BEHAVIORAL: Group phone counseling|BEHAVIORAL: Newsletter | Weight loss maintenance, Examine the impact of group phone-based treatment on weight loss maintenance from 6 to 18 months, compared to a mail-based education COMPARISON condition, following a 6-month weight loss phase among obese rural breast cancer survivors., 6 – 18 months | Quality of life, Compare the effects of treatment conditions on aspects of quality of life important for breast cancer survivorship, including general physical, social, and emotional well-being, fatigue, arthralgia, lymphedema symptoms, menopausal symptoms, and depressive symptoms., Baseline and 6, 12, 18, and 24 months|Breast cancer risk biomarkers, Examine the association of weight change with changes in selected breast cancer risk biomarkers, including bioavailable estradiol, testosterone, and fasting insulin.

The goal of this study is to characterize the pharmacokinetics of understudied drugs for which specific dosing recommendations and safety data are lacking. The prescribing of drugs to children will not be part of this protocol. Taking advantage of procedures done as part of routine medical care (i.e. blood draws) this study will serve as a tool to better understand drug exposure in children receiving these drugs per standard of care.

Women with PCOS also have a hard time becoming pregnant. Girls with high levels of the male hormone testosterone often develop PCOS as adults. Some girls with high levels of male hormone will develop normal hormone levels as they grow up, but most girls continue to have high levels of male hormone as adults. The purpose of this study is to understand where the male and female hormones come from in girls as they get older. The investigators think the adrenal gland, makes most of the hormones in young girls and that the ovary and the adrenal gland make these hormones in older girls.

NCT01365975 | Follow-up Study of Late Effects of Periconceptional Folic Acid in Mothers and Offspring in the Community Intervention Program Population: The Chinese Children and Families Study | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01365975 | Periconceptional folic acid supplements of 400 (Micro) daily prevent neural tube defects (NTD) in offspring. Some data suggest that periconceptional folic acid supplements, folate levels during pregnancy, and/or certain variants in the gene that encodes methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), a key enzyme that catalyzes synthesis of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate \[the primary methyl donor in most metabolic pathways involving methylation including DNA methylation\] from 5,10 methylenetetrahydrofolate may be associated with reduced risks of certain adverse events during the prenatal period, birth weight and certain serious diseases in offspring, while other studies have raised concerns about increased risks of specific serious disorders. Only one study has examined late health effects in mothers that might be associated with use of periconceptional folic acid supplements. We propose to study potential health benefits and adverse effects of periconceptional folic acid supplements in a 15-year follow-up of offspring and mothers. In the offspring, we will evaluate whether periconceptional folic acid supplements reduced risk of external congenital birth defects and childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and whether risks are reduced or increased for other pediatric disorders linked with periconceptional folic acid supplements including asthma, pervasive developmental disorders and autism, diabetes, obesity and blood pressure. In the mothers, we will assess cardiovascular diseases and associated risk factors, breast and colorectal cancers and precursor conditions, and other cancers. We will also conduct exploratory assessment of other serious diseases in mothers. To increase the limited data on the morbidity and survival of children born with a major birth defect, particularly in low- or middle-income countries, we plan to assess morbidity and mortality outcomes in children identified with neural tube defects as part of our follow-up. The women and children who participated in the joint China-U.S. Community Intervention Program (CIP) trial (N=243,779 women treated or not treated with folic acid in the periconceptional period and their offspring) represent unique cohorts whose periconceptional exposure to folic acid is well documented. We propose to follow a sample of 22,000 CIP mothers and their offspring (currently 14 to 17 years of age), to ascertain vital status, medical history, and lifestyle habits. The study will clarify whether there are differences with respect to growth, physical development during the puberty period, selected serious morbidity and mortality in offspring and risks of serious health outcomes and mortality in mothers associated with periconceptional folic acid supplements. Data from this study will inform us about cohort participation rate, cost, and effective approaches for future follow-up of the full cohort. The current protocol focuses on a pilot study (Pilot Study # 1) in which we will carry out two specific aims in 500 families. We will test and evaluate the most effective approaches to trace the mothers who enrolled in the CIP in 1993-1995 in CIP counties, fathers, and children. If the child is not living with the biological mother, we will trace the caretaker or next of kin with whom the child is living. We will also conduct in-person interviews, obtain anthropometric and blood pressure measurements and determine cohort participation rate in a sample of 500 CIP families from two of the 21 CIP project counties to obtain health information, medical history, and vital status. We will attempt to enroll in the pilot study 500 mothers/caretakers and 500 offspring, and 500 fathers (Total N=1500). Excluded from the Pilot Study #1 at this time are the families in which the mother or the child is deceased. We will seek permission from the IRB to enroll these families at a later date. | NO | Pediatric Leukemia|Other Pediatric Cancers | Evaluation of long term health effects, observational study inquiring about various measures of health including cancer, hypertension, and diabetes., 1994-2012 | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | ALL | CHILD, ADULT | 1382 | NIH | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | 999911165|11-C-N165 | 2011-06-01 | 2012-12-31 | 2020-03-02 | 2011-06-03 | 2020-03-03 | National Cancer Institute (NCI), 9000 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, Maryland, 20892, United States | ||||||||

Use of combined oral contraceptives (OCs) in women with PCOS effectively reduces circulating androgens. Although OCs are the most common and one of the oldest symptomatic treatment modalities for androgenic skin symptoms and for irregular menstrual cycles caused by hyperandrogenism, the data concerning the effect of treatment of PCOS women with different body mass index (BMI) are limited.

NCT01317940 | Nutrition and Body Composition in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01317940 | Many adolescents with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) have been found to have low bone density by the end of treatment. This can lead to long-term suffering in survivors due to poor bone health. Vitamin D is known to be associated with bone health and previous research has established that Vitamin D insufficiency is very common at diagnosis of ALL and worsens over the course of treatment. Researchers have also learned that a relationship exists between both Vitamin D and fat tissue and ALL and fat tissue. In adolescents being treated for ALL as well as in early survivors, this randomized study will therefore examine the effect of Vitamin D and calcium supplementation on correcting Vitamin D insufficiency and on improving bone density in the context of changes in body composition and body fat. Bone density will be measured by a radiology exam called qCT (quantitative computed tomography) while body composition and body fat will be measured by a different radiology exam called a DXA (dual energy x-ray absorptiometry scan) .

NCT01315483 | Diet Composition, Weight Control, and Breast Carcinogenesis | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01315483 | CHOICE | In the United States, overweight (BMI \> 25 but \< 30 Kg/m2) and obesity (BMI \> 30Kg/m2) are increasing at epidemic rates. A significant association exists between being overweight or obese and breast cancer recurrence and survival. However, evidence continues to accumulate indicating that achieving or maintaining a healthy weight for height (Body Mass Index, BMI, 18.5-25Kg/m2) is associated with a reduced risk for breast cancer and with a decrease in breast cancer associated mortality. Despite this, there is a lack of randomized controlled trials exploring this association and how the process of fat loss or being successful in actually reaching a healthy weight for height differentially affects biomarkers for cancer recurrence. Many dietary approaches for weight loss are currently available to the public, and each purports to offer advantages. However, there is little scientific evidence to indicate how these dietary approaches, some of which vary markedly in the foods that they limit or exclude, affect biomarkers for breast cancer risk. In particular, it is not know whether the critical factor in relation to weight and breast cancer is simply weight loss (negative energy balance), irrespective of the manner in which it is achieved, or if certain dietary approaches affect breast cancer risk biomarkers more favorably than others. Published data from our laboratory suggest that dietary pattern does matter, and therefore the goal of this study is to investigate the effects of two popular weight loss dietary approaches that differ in the extent to which they limit carbohydrate or fat consumption (with effects on dietary glycemic load) compared to a usual care group on prognostic markers for cancer recurrence in postmenopausal breast cancer survivors. The investigators hypothesize that in addition to the anticipated effects of fat loss on circulating levels of bioavailable sex steroid hormones, that the effects of excess fat on breast cancer prognosis can be attributed to three interrelated metabolic processes that affect cancer progression: altered glucose metabolism, chronic inflammation and excessive cellular oxidation. | NO | Breast Cancer | OTHER: Weight Loss Dietary Pattern | Inflammation Markers, C-reactive protein, IL-6, TNF-alpha, Baseline and montlhly for 6 months | Body Fat Percentage (%), % Body fat, % lean muscle mass, Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) using the BODPOD (Volumetric weighing; Life Measurement, Inc.) and Tanita Bioelectrical Impedence (BI), Baseline and monthly for 6 months|Waist Hip Ratio, Calculated by measuring and dividing waist and hip circumferences, Baseline and monthly for 6 months|Weight, Using 1) BODPOD (Life Measurement, Inc.) and 2) Tanita Bioelectrical Impedence Scale, Baseline and monthly for 6 months|Bioavailable sex steroid hormones, estradiol, estrone, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), Baseline and monthly for 6 months|Glucose metabolism, glucose, insulin, IGF-1, IGFBP-3, glycated proteins (HbA1c), Baseline and monthly for 6 months|Cellular oxidation, 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine, DNA damage sensitivity and repair and 8-isoprostane-F-2-alpha, Baseline and monthly for 6 months | Colorado State University | FEMALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | NA | 259 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: SINGLE (OUTCOMES_ASSESSOR)|Primary Purpose: PREVENTION | CA125243 | 2008-09 | 2012-01 | 2012-06 | 2011-03-15 | 2013-02-15 | Rocky Mountain Cancer Center, Denver, Colorado, 80220, United States | ||||
NCT01313455 | Adrenal Hyperplasia Among Young People With PCOS | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01313455 | Background: – Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a group of disorders related to problems with the secretion of certain hormones, which can lead to reproductive and other issues in women. Frequent complications of PCOS include irregular menstruation, development of ovarian cysts, and insulin resistance. The adrenal glands, which sit on top of the kidney, are involved in the production of certain hormones and the regulation of steroid levels in the blood, and may be affected in women with PCOS. Researchers are interested in studying possible connections between the adrenal glands and PCOS in young women who have been diagnosed with PCOS and healthy volunteers with normal menstrual function. Objectives: – To investigate possible connections between adrenal gland steroid hormone secretion and polycystic ovarian syndrome. Eligibility: * Women between 16 and 29 years of age who have been diagnosed with PCOS, or who are healthy volunteers with normal menstrual function. * Participants must be willing to discontinue the use of oral contraceptives or any other medications that alter steroid hormone production for at least 1 month before the start of the study. Design: * Participants will be screened with a physical examination, medical history, and blood and urine tests. All participants will also have a pelvic (ovarian) ultrasound. * All participants will be admitted to the hospital for a 1-week testing period, which will involve the following tests: * Regular blood draws for two 2-hour periods (late evening and early morning) to measure hormone levels * Fasting blood draws with a dose of corticotropin to test the body’s adrenal function * Hormone level measurement following regular doses of dexamethasone (a drug that controls the function of the adrenal gland) * Daily urine collection for 6 days. * Other studies, such as imaging studies of the adrenal glands, may be conducted as required by the study researchers. | NO | Adrenal Hyperplasia|Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome|Oligomenorrhea|Obesity|Hyperandrogenism | Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) | FEMALE | CHILD, ADULT | 96 | NIH | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | 110119|11-CH-0119 | 2011-03-10 | 2017-10-24 | 2011-03-11 | 2019-05-31 | National Institutes of Health Clinical Center, 9000 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, Maryland, 20892, United States | ||||||||||

NCT01107327 | Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-Positron Emission Tomography (PET) in Cancer Associated Venothromboembolism | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01107327 | Venothromboembolic disease (VTE), which includes deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), is a severe health problem, effecting 1.5/1000 per year in the general population. In patients over 60 years of age, the incidence is 1/100 per year. Of the two million Americans per year who will develop VTE, one third will develop pulmonary embolism (PE). VTE is usually diagnosed by Doppler ultrasound or contrast venography when present in the extremities, VQ scan or pulmonary angiography when PE is present. However, there are many instances when the diagnosis of VTE by conventional modalities is limited. These include obesity, recent trauma or surgery, the presence of a mass, the presence of clot around central lines, and clot occurring in the abdomen and pelvis. Furthermore, the differentiation between new and old clot has evaded all diagnostic imaging modalities, and no existing modality allows for an accurate delineation of all sites of thrombus within the body. New approaches to the diagnostic imaging of VTE in complicated cases are needed. The first hypothesis of this project is that FDG PET/CT can be used to accurately diagnose the presence and extent of acute VTE, and that it will distinguish new clot from old. Approximately 20-25% of all new cases of venous thromboembolism occur in known cancer patients. The risk of VTE is 4-6 fold greater in patients with cancer as those without (8-12% vs. 2%, respectively, lifetime risk). In many cases, the development of VTE occurs as the first clinical sign of the cancer, even before it is diagnosed. Among patients presenting with acute VTE have no obvious cause (defined as “idiopathic” or “unprovoked”, as opposed to “secondary” VTE), the literature reports that up to 20% (range of reported incidence 7-20%) may ultimately prove to have cancer, depending on the series and whether the thrombosis is unifocal or multifocal. Despite the substantial prevalence of occult cancer in patients presenting with idiopathic VTE, there are no current recommendations that these patients be screened for the presence of cancer. The second hypothesis of the project is that FDG PET/CT can accurately be used to screen for the presence of cancer in patients with unprovoked (idiopathic) acute VTE. Objectives: There are two specific objectives to test the hypotheses associated with this project: 1. To establish the sensitivity of FDG PET/CT in the diagnosis of acute VTE. 2. To perform a pilot project to aid in the design of a larger trial to define the incidence of occult cancer in patients rigorously selected for idiopathic (unprovoked) VTE, and to investigate the value of FDG PET in the early detection of occult cancer in this population. | NO | Venothromboembolism | PROCEDURE: FDG-PET/CT | Accuracy of FDG PET/CT scanning to diagnose presence, extent, and acuity of Ventothromboembolism diagnosis., We believe that FDG PET/CT can be used to accurately diagnose the presence, extent, and acuity of VTE. We intend to establish the value of FDG PET, instead, as an alternative modality for the diagnosis of VTE. Clinical situations where this might prove useful include: 1) the presence of old clot, when the distinction between new and old may be important; 2) evaluation of abdominal, pelvic and thoracic thrombus, where Doppler is difficult-to-impossible because of patient obesity; 3) Complicated anatomy due to the presence of tumor or post-therapeutic changes., April 2012 | University of Utah | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | ALL | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | 26 | OTHER | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | HCI18327|R01CA121003-01 | 2006-08 | 2012-01 | 2012-01 | 2010-04-20 | 2014-10-31 | University of Utah Huntsman Cancer Institute, Salt Lake City, Utah, 84112, United States | ||||||

NCT01079845 | A Cooking and Eating Study | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01079845 | ACES | Background. The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex hormonal disorder that presents in susceptible girls around the time of menarche. Females with PCOS have high levels of androgens (e.g., testosterone). While cosmetic appearance (excess facial hair and acne) and menstrual disturbances were once considered the primary concerns, emerging data indicate that many adolescents and young adults with PCOS are insulin resistant and at increased risk for metabolic syndrome and diabetes. The majority of females with PCOS are obese, and excess body fat amplifies the severity of the syndrome. Dietary intervention is considered an important component of treatment for PCOS. However, a consensus statement regarding optimal nutrient composition for treating adolescents and young adults with PCOS has not been published because data are lacking to provide a foundation for such a statement. Recognizing increased risk for diabetes in patients with PCOS, many practitioners employ a low-fat diet as prescribed in the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) for weight loss and control of symptoms. Objective and Hypothesis. The purpose of this research study is to compare different diets for treating PCOS. We hypothesize that a low-glycemic load diet – designed to lower blood levels of glucose and insulin – will be more beneficial than a low-fat diet in obese adolescents and young adults with PCOS. Design. We propose a 6-month study in which 50 obese females with PCOS (ages 13 to 21 years) will be assigned to receive one of two dietary treatments, with the goal of retaining 40 participants. Group assignment will be at random. One of the treatments will be a low-glycemic load diet, and the other treatment will be a low-fat diet (modeled after the DPP diet). Participants in both groups will receive individual nutrition education and dietary counseling with a registered dietitian (clinic visits, telephone calls) and cooking workshops with a chef. The purpose of the cooking workshops will be to enhance compliance with diet prescriptions, beyond what can be achieved by nutrition education and dietary counseling in a conventional clinic setting. The primary outcome will be bioavailable testosterone (form of testosterone that causes symptoms of PCOS). Secondary outcomes will include other blood tests to evaluate further high androgen levels (total testosterone, free testosterone, sex hormone binding globulin, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate), clinical signs of high androgen levels (excess facial hair, acne), glucose tolerance and risk for diabetes (determined by blood sugar and insulin measurements), risk for cardiovascular disease (based on blood cholesterol and C-reactive protein levels and blood pressure), body fat percentage and distribution (measured using state-of-the-art dual energy x-ray absorptiometry and waist circumference), menstrual cyclicity, and health-related quality of life (evaluated by questionnaire). | NO | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome | BEHAVIORAL: Nutrition Education, Dietary Counseling, and Cooking | Bioavailable Testosterone, Baseline, 6 months | Other Biochemical and Clinical Signs of Hyperandrogenism, total and free testosterone, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), hirsutism, acne, Baseline, 6 months|Insulin Sensitivity and Beta-cell Function, frequently-sampled oral glucose tolerance test, HbA1c, Baseline, 6 months|Risk for Cardiovascular Disease, serum levels of HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and C-reactive protein; blood pressure, Baseline, 6 months|Body Weight and Composition, body fat percentage and distribution assessed by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA), waist circumference, Baseline, 6 months|Cyclicity of Menstrual Periods, Monthly|Quality of Life, Questionnaire, Baseline, 6 months | Boston Children’s Hospital | Thrasher Research Fund | FEMALE | CHILD, ADULT | NA | 19 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: SINGLE (OUTCOMES_ASSESSOR)|Primary Purpose: TREATMENT | 10-02-0069 | 2010-07 | 2013-11 | 2013-11 | 2010-03-03 | 2015-02-05 | Children’s Hospital Boston, Boston, Massachusetts, 02115, United States | |||
NCT01047735 | The TRIABETES – ARMMS-T2D Study: A Randomized Trial to Compare Surgical and Medical Treatments for Type 2 Diabetes | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT01047735 | TRIABETES | This research study is being performed to begin to determine the effectiveness of two dominant bariatric surgery procedures versus an intensive lifestyle intervention to induce weight loss in patients and promote improvements in Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in moderately obese patients. T2DM is currently the 6th leading cause of mortality in the United States and is a major cause of kidney failure, blindness, amputations, heart attack, and other vascular and gastro-intestinal dysfunctions. Traditionally, treatments include intensive lifestyle modifications with or without glucose lowering agents. Neither treatment alone, or in combination, results in complete resolution of diabetes and its potential long-term complications. Bariatric surgery has been proven as an effective treatment to accomplish sustained and significant weight loss for those with severe obesity and has been shown to induce long-term remission of T2DM. However, despite enthusiasm for these potential treatment options, it is not clear whether diabetes is influenced by the type of surgery or by the amount of weight lost or if bariatric surgery is more effective than non-surgical weight loss induced by diet and physical activity in T2DM patients with moderate BMIs (30-40kg/m2; Class I and Class II obesity, or approximately 65-95 pounds overweight depending on your height). More well-controlled studies are needed to more completely inform health care decision making and clinical practice in this area. This research study aims to obtain preliminary information regarding the effectiveness of two major types of bariatric surgery, Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass and Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding versus an intensive lifestyle intervention to induce weight loss with diet and increased physical activity. | NO | Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus|Obesity | PROCEDURE: Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery|PROCEDURE: Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding|BEHAVIORAL: Lifestyle Weight Loss Intervention | Feasibility of performing a randomized trial comparing two major types of bariatric surgery versus a lifestyle weight loss intervention (LWLI) induced by diet and increased physical activity in moderately obese patients with T2DM., 6 months, 1 year | Preliminary information regarding the effectiveness of two dominant bariatric surgery procedures versus an intensive lifestyle intervention to induce weight loss with diet and increased physical activity., 6 months, 1 year | University of Pittsburgh | National Institutes of Health (NIH)|National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) | ALL | ADULT | NA | 69 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: TREATMENT | STUDY20060163|RC1DK086037|R01DK095128-01 | 2009-09-01 | 2025-07-01 | 2025-07-01 | 2010-01-13 | 2024-08-16 | William F Gourash, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 15213, United States | |||

NCT00868140 | Effects of Pioglitazone on Insulin and Glucose Metabolism in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00868140 | PCOS | Our hypothesis is that hyperinsulinemia increases the renal clearance of D-chiro-inositol (DCI) in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and that this leads to a reduction in circulating insulin-stimulated D-chiro-inositol-containing inositol phosphoglycan (DCI-IPG) release. To assess the effects of a chronic reduction in circulating insulin on DCI metabolism, we propose to reduce circulating insulin in obese women with PCOS by improving insulin sensitivity with the drug pioglitazone. Pioglitazone is a thiazolidinedione that improves peripheral insulin sensitivity, presumably by activation of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) receptor. Administration of pioglitazone to women with PCOS has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity, reduce insulin secretion, and decrease both fasting and post-prandial serum insulin concentrations. | YES | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome | DRUG: pioglitazone|DRUG: Placebo | AUC DCI-IPG (%/Min), Change in the Area Under the Curve DCI-IPG measurements in blood samples taken at 15 minute intervals during the 2 hour OGTT before treatment with pioglitazone or placebo.

Values calculated on samples taken at 0, 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes of a 2 hour OGTT. Values typically range from 0 to 12 units with higher scores indicating better insulin sensitivity.

NCT00807768 | Pelvic Radiation Therapy or Vaginal Implant Radiation Therapy, Paclitaxel, and Carboplatin in Treating Patients With High-Risk Stage I or Stage II Endometrial Cancer | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00807768 | This randomized phase III trial studies pelvic radiation therapy to see how well it works compared with vaginal implant radiation therapy, paclitaxel, and carboplatin in treating patients with high-risk stage I or stage II endometrial cancer. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Implant radiation therapy uses radioactive material placed directly into or near a tumor to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether pelvic radiation therapy alone is more effective than vaginal implant radiation therapy, paclitaxel, and carboplatin in treating patients with endometrial cancer. | YES | Endometrial Clear Cell Adenocarcinoma|Endometrial Serous Adenocarcinoma|Fatigue|Neurotoxicity Syndrome|Obesity|Stage I Uterine Corpus Cancer AJCC v7|Stage II Uterine Corpus Cancer AJCC v7 | RADIATION: 3-Dimensional Conformal Radiation Therapy|DRUG: Carboplatin|RADIATION: Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy|RADIATION: Internal Radiation Therapy|OTHER: Laboratory Biomarker Analysis|DRUG: Paclitaxel|OTHER: Quality-of-Life Assessment|OTHER: Questionnaire Administration | Number of Participants With Recurrence or Death Events at Primary Analysis, Recurrence-Free Survival is the period from study entry until disease recurrence, death, or date of last contact, Within 4 weeks after completing or discontinuing study therapy, then every 6 months for 2 years, then annually for 3 years, then as clinically indicated, assessed up to 10 years | Number of Participants With Death Events, The number of death events is reported.

The FACIT-Fatigue contains 13 items. Each item was scored using a 5-point scale (0=not at all; 1=a little bit; 2=somewhat; 3=quite a bit; 4=very much). For the negative items, reversal was performed prior to score calculation. According to the FACIT measurement system, the Fatigue score was the summation of the individual item scores if more than 50% of subscale items were answered. When unanswered items existed, a subscale score was prorated by multiplying the mean of the answered item scores by the number of items in the scale. The FACIT-Fatigue score ranges 0-52 with a large score suggests less fatigue., Prior to study treatment (baseline), 4 weeks post the starting of study treatment, 10-11 weeks post the starting of study treatment, 8 months post the starting of study treatment, 14 months post the starting of study treatment|Patient-reported Neurotoxicity, Patient reported neurotoxicity symptoms as measured with the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/Gynecologic Oncology Group – neurotoxicity subscale (short version) (FACT/GOG-Ntx subscale).

NCT00805207 | Sex Steroids, Sleep, and Metabolic Dysfunction in Women | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00805207 | SCOR | Increased plasma triglyceride concentration is a common feature of the metabolic abnormalities associated with obesity and a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Obesity is a major risk factor for two conditions that appear to be increasing in prevalence in women: the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and sleep disordered breathing. PCOS affects 5-8% of women. Sleep disordered breathing affects up to 10% of women. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the most common cause for sleep disordered breathing and particularly prevalent in obese women with PCOS (\~50%). Both PCOS and OSA augment the increase in plasma triglyceride (TG) concentration associated with obesity, and the effects of PCOS and OSA on plasma TG concentration appear to be additive. The mechanisms responsible for the adverse effects on plasma TG metabolism are not known. The primary goal of this project, therefore, is to determine the mechanisms responsible for the increase in plasma TG concentration in obese women with PCOS and OSA. It is our general hypothesis that alterations in the hormonal milieu that are characteristic of these two conditions are, at least in part, responsible for the increase in plasma TG concentration in obese women with the conditions. Furthermore, we hypothesize that the hormonal aberrations characteristic of the two conditions are particularly harmful to obese, compared with lean, women. The effects of PCOS on skeletal muscle protein metabolism are also not known. However, sex hormones are thought to be important regulators of muscle protein turnover suggesting that muscle protein metabolism is likely to be affected by PCOS. We will examine this by determining the effect of individual sex hormones on muscle protein metabolism and hypothesize that testosterone administration will stimulate muscle protein metabolism while estrogen and progesterone administration will inhibit muscle protein metabolism. | YES | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)|Obstructive Sleep Apnea|Obesity | DRUG: Progesterone|DRUG: testosterone|DRUG: glucocorticoid|DEVICE: continuous positive airway pressure|DRUG: Estrogen|OTHER: Control | Very-Low Density Lipoprotein-Triglyceride (VLDL-TG) Secretion Rate, VLDL was isolated from plasma by ultracentrifugation with the tracer-to-tracee (TTR) of free glycerol in plasma and glycerol in VLDL-TG determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.

NCT00774371 | Weight Reduction Intervention for Breast Cancer Survivors | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00774371 | SHAPE | Overweight or obesity is an established negative prognostic factor in both premenopausal and postmenopausal breast cancer. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain the adverse effect of excess body fat on prognosis following the diagnosis of breast cancer, including increased circulating sex hormones, insulin, leptin, and various growth factors. Results from previous studies suggest that specific strategies can facilitate weight reduction and maintenance of weight loss in this target population. This randomized clinical trial will recruit 253 overweight or obese women who have been previously treated for early stage breast cancer and will test whether a multifaceted approach to promoting healthy weight management can achieve the goal of weight loss and maintenance. Additionally, this study tests whether weight loss is associated with changes in biological and psychosocial factors, including eating attitudes and behaviors and health-related quality of life. The intervention incorporates cognitive-behavioral therapy, increased physical activity, diet modification to facilitate a modest reduction in energy intake, and strategies to improve body image and self-acceptance. This approach and intervention have been pilot-tested with breast cancer survivors in a developmental project, which resulted in the intervention group losing significantly more weight than the wait-list control group. Study Aims include: testing whether an intervention that emphasizes increased physical activity and individualized diet modification to promote an energy imbalance is associated with a greater degree of weight loss and maintenance of that loss over an 18-month time period; describing the effect of the intervention on hormones and growth factors; describing the relationships between body weight and weight reduction and measures of selected psychosocial factors. Measurements of hormonal and psychosocial factors in this study will provide insight into the responsiveness of these factors to weight loss in overweight or obese breast cancer survivors, which will provide an indication of the degree of clinical benefit that is achieved with the intervention efforts. Results from this study may enable the development of broader efforts transferable to clinical practice and public health, and thus, may ultimately have a substantial effect on the risk for recurrence and long-term survival of the estimated 1.98 million breast cancer survivors in the U.S. today. | NO | Breast Cancer | BEHAVIORAL: Cognitive behavioral therapy CBT) for weight loss | Weight loss, 2 years | Increase in physical activity levels, 2 years | University of California, San Diego | American Cancer Society, Inc.|San Diego State University | FEMALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | NA | 253 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: PREVENTION | RSGPB-04-258-01-CPPB|UCSD ID# 2004-2839 | 2005-01 | 2009-02 | 2009-12 | 2008-10-17 | 2023-11-30 | Moores UCSD Cancer Center, La Jolla, California, 92093, United States | |||
NCT00766311 | Aerobic and Strengthening Exercise for Acute Leukemia | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00766311 | XRCISL | Survivors of childhood leukemia have muscle weakness and impaired mobility (physical performance), a higher than expected frequency of obesity, and early mortality from cardiovascular disease. Treatment related neuropathy, cardiotoxicity and general cachexia may complicate physical performance and establish a pattern of sedentary behavior that may lead to a lifetime of inactivity. There is limited evidence that children being treated for leukemia benefit from home exercise programs during the maintenance phase of therapy, particularly in terms of muscle strength and range of motion. However, there are no established guidelines regarding the prescription of exercise for children diagnosed with leukemia.

NCT00729560 | Effects of Flutamide on Insulin and Glucose Metabolism in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00729560 | PCOS | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is the major cause of infertility in the United States. Many women with PCOS demonstrate insulin resistance and a compensatory hyperinsulinemia.This is due to both an intrinsic form of insulin resistance unique to PCOS and, in many cases, acquired insulin resistance due to obesity. The importance of this observation lies in the fact that hyperinsulinemia appears to play an important pathogenetic role in the hyperandrogenism and anovulation of both obese and lean women with PCOS. | YES | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome | DRUG: Flutamide|DRUG: Placebo | DCI-IPG Measurements in Blood and Urine, zero participants analyzed, no assays performed, 2 years | Virginia Commonwealth University | Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) | FEMALE | ADULT | NA | 8 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: DOUBLE (PARTICIPANT, INVESTIGATOR)|Primary Purpose: HEALTH_SERVICES_RESEARCH | 04487VCUIRB|GCRC0826 | 2008-07 | 2012-02 | 2012-02 | 2008-08-07 | 2014-09-08 | 2014-09-08 | Virginia Commonwealth University General Clinical Research Center, Richmond, Virginia, 23298, United States | |||

NCT00714948 | Gemcitabine and Split-dose Cisplatin (GC) Plus Sorafenib in Chemotherapy-naïve Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00714948 | Standard chemotherapy drugs generally work by killing rapidly dividing cells in your body. Cancers cells are some of the most rapidly dividing cells and that is why chemotherapy can be effective in some patients. Gemcitabine and Cisplatin are an effective and standard drug combination used to treat locally advanced and metastatic urothelial cancer. However, these drugs do not shrink tumors in all patients and when they do, it is generally for a limited amount of time. This has led scientists to look for different ways to treat cancer. New drugs have been developed to treat cancer that work differently than standard chemotherapy drugs. These drugs attempt to decrease the blood supply to tumors. By doing so, this may limit the tumor’s source of oxygen and nutrients and prevent the tumor from growing. Sorafenib is an example of a drug that works in this way. In some patients with advanced kidney cancer, sorafenib alone has been shown to slow the progression of their disease. The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad, the combination of gemcitabine, cisplatin, and sorafenib has on you and your cancer. | YES | Bladder Cancer|URINARY BLADDER | DRUG: gemcitabine and cisplatin plus sorafenib | To Determine the Progression Free Survival Rate at One Year Untreated Patients With Advanced/Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma Treated With the Combination of Sorafenib, Gemcitabine, and Cisplatin., conclusion of the study | Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center | Bayer | ALL | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | PHASE2 | 2 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: NA|Intervention Model: SINGLE_GROUP|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: TREATMENT | 07-168 | 2008-07 | 2011-11 | 2011-11 | 2008-07-14 | 2015-11-16 | 2015-11-16 | Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York, 10065, United States | ||||
NCT00704912 | Treatment of Hyperandrogenism Versus Insulin Resistance in Infertile Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) Women | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00704912 | OWL-PCOS | The goal of this three-armed randomized controlled trial is to establish the relative roles of treatment of hyperandrogenism versus obesity (as the largest modifiable factor contributing to insulin resistance) in treating infertility and improving pregnancy outcomes among obese PCOS women. The investigators hypothesize that the key to restoring ovulation leading to live birth is to correct hyperandrogenism with oral contraceptive pills, but the key to avoiding later pregnancy complications is to improve insulin sensitivity with weight loss. | YES | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome | DRUG: Orlistat/Meal Replacement/Lifestyle Modification|DRUG: Loestrin 1/20|DRUG: Combination of treatments | Live Birth Rate, Participants were followed for 4 months of attempted conception and those who conceived were then followed for the duration of their pregnancy, approximately 9 months. | Ovulation Rate, Up to 4 months|Change in Weight, Change from baseline to end of the 4-month intervention., Baseline, 4 months|Prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome, Baseline, 4 months | Milton S.

NCT00598455 | Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Natural History Study: Renal Manifestations | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00598455 | Eighty percent of patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) have renal angiomyolipomata. These lesions grow and can lead to significant morbidity by hemorrhage or renal failure. Understanding the natural history of these lesions and understanding which lesions may be more prone to grow quickly or develop aneurysms that predispose to hemorrhage will greatly assist clinical care of patients with TSC. The objective is to test the hypothesis that serial MR and CT imaging will allow objective, reproducible quantification of angiomyolipoma growth by volumetric analysis, and analysis of lesions characteristics will identify angiomyolipomata with rapid growth potential that would require intervention. The specific aim of this proposal is to collect clinically obtained serial abdominal imaging from the Tuberous Sclerosis Natural History Consortium Centers and analyze the volume and adiposity of the individual angiomyolipomata. The growth rate is hypothesized to have an inverse relationship to adiposity. Yearly renal MR or CT imaging will be performed of patients with TSC. The images will be coded at the site of acquisition, and transferred via VPN to a secure server at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. Using innovative imaging processing software (Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Image Processing Software (CCHIPS), the image data will be segmented to reveal various tissue components based on signal intensities. Different signal intensities can differentiate normal renal parenchyma, and renal angiomyolipomata. Using the imaging data and the novel software, the volume of an individual angiomyolipoma, as well as the adiposity will be determined. Imaging at enrollment (year 1) will serve as baseline. At years two and three, the lesions will undergo repeat analysis. Angiomyolipoma growth rates and adiposity over three years will be analyzed to test the hypothesis above. | NO | Tuberous Sclerosis Complex | Children’s Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati | Loma Linda University|Massachusetts General Hospital|Boston Children’s Hospital|University of Alabama at Birmingham|University of Pennsylvania|Connecticut Children’s Medical Center|The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston | ALL | CHILD, ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | 450 | OTHER | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | TS0500008|W81XWH-06-1-0538 | 2008-02 | 2013-09 | 2013-09 | 2008-01-22 | 2017-05-04 | Cincinnati Children’s, Cincinnati, Ohio, 45229, United States | ||||||||

NCT00518635 | Low Dose Growth Hormone in Obese PCOS Women | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00518635 | Study hypothesis: Growth hormone (GH), through its generation of free ‘bioavailable’ insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I, can improve insulin sensitivity and the metabolic profile of women with polycystic ovary syndrome. Study aims: To determine the mechanism of how low dose GH treatment affects the body’s sensitivity to insulin actions and whether this low GH dose can affect the body’s handling of steroid hormone levels (cortisol clearance) and testosterone (male hormones) in obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome. Study design: Obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome, but not recently been on GH treatment, and presently attending Outpatients Clinic will be invited to participate in this study. The subjects will be assessed at the initial visit to ascertain their suitability before further participating in the study. If suitable, an equal number of women will be randomized to receive either daily low dose GH or placebo injections first for 12 weeks, before exchanging over for another 12 weeks of treatment after a 4-week washout period. Before, during and after treatment, the subjects will be assessed at frequently with blood tests, scans and fat biopsies. During the study, the subjects will be studied 4 times at the Oregon Clinical and Translational Research Institute (OCTRI).

NCT00510315 | Abdominal Obesity and Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Women Who Survived Cancer or a Related Illness Following Total Body Irradiation and Stem Cell Transplant | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00510315 | The purpose of this study is to better understand why some women who survived cancer or a related illness later develop diabetes, problems with their cholesterol, or other problems that may lead to heart disease. Because these problems may be related to treatment with total body irradiation and a stem cell transplant, the investigators will compare the rates of obesity, cholesterol problems, and diabetes between women who were treated with total body irradiation and a stem cell transplant and women who were not. The amount and location of fat stores in the abdomen is more important than overall weight or total body fat in the development of diabetes and cholesterol problems. In general, fat can be stored in several areas in the abdomen: around the organs (visceral fat), under the skin (subcutaneous fat), and in the liver (liver fat). People with higher amounts of fat around the organs (visceral fat), even those with a normal weight, are more likely to become diabetic or have high cholesterol. The amount of fat in each of these areas can be measured with an abdominal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In this study, the investigators will use blood tests, height, weight, waist circumference, blood pressure measurements, and an abdominal MRI to evaluate for several risk factors of heart disease, including cholesterol problems, diabetes and pre-diabetes, elevated blood pressure, and increased abdominal fat. | NO | Leukemia|Hodgkin’s Lymphoma|Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma|Myelodysplastic Syndrome | OTHER: Questionnaires, Laboratory tests, Abdominal MRI | Explore whether visceral adipose tissue is significantly higher in women who were treated with total body irradiation (TBI) plus stem cell transplant in comparison with women who were not, within 12 months | Determine the differences in processes of changes, decisional balance for physical activity, body image, mood, and quality of life between the groups, within 12 months|Determine the correlation between the amount of visceral adipose tissue and fasting levels of triglycerides, LDL, HDL, insulin, glucose, and HOMA-IR in both groups., within 12 months|To begin to characterize the psychosocial risk factors of the TBI plus stem cell transplant group, in relation to the comparison group, in order to inform a future targeted intervention to reduce risk., within 12 months | Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center | Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario|Weill Medical College of Cornell University | FEMALE | ADULT | 11 | OTHER | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | 07-092 | 2007-07 | 2016-01 | 2016-01 | 2007-08-02 | 2020-12-07 | Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York, 10065, United States | |||||

NCT00444288 | PCOS Twin Study – Environmental Factors in the Development of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, Phase 2 | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00444288 | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, or PCOS, is the most common endocrine disorder in women. Depending on the strictness of the diagnostic criteria used, it is thought to occur in about 6-10% of all women, many of whom do not know they have the syndrome. Women with PCOS produce abnormally high levels of male hormones (hyperandrogenism); this counteracts their ovaries’ ability to make enough of the female hormones estrogen and progesterone needed for normal menstruation. PCOS is the number one cause of hormonally related infertility and also increases women’s risks for diabetes, high blood pressure, hypercholesteremia, cardiovascular disease and certain cancers. It is currently unclear to what extent PCOS and PCOS-associated traits (hyperandrogenisms, hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, obesity, and coronary artery disease) are the results of environmental factors or genetic predisposition. Therefore, the NIEHS Program in Clinical Research is conducting a multi-phase twin study to measure the extent of PCOS heritability and to identify environmental and genetic factors involved in the development of PCOS. The proposal described here is for Phase 2 of this study. The goals of Phase 2 are to: 1) establish more reliable concordance rates and baseline heritability estimates for PCOS in MZ and DZ twins; and 2) establish a cohort of intact MZ and DZ female twin pairs as a resource for future studies. In Phase 1, about 1500 individual female twins were identified from the Mid-Atlantic Twin Registry (MATR) based on self report of a history of irregular periods and/or cystic ovaries in the MATR General Health Screening Questionnaire. Those twins were surveyed by phone for other traits associated with PCOS. In Phase 2, the twins most likely to have PCOS based on their answers to the Phase 1 phone survey will be recontacted for further PCOS screening. This includes providing a blood sample for measuring bioavailable testosterone (BaT) levels. Women with elevated BaT levels are likely to have PCOS. The women with elevated levels will then be asked to undergo a medical evaluation for PCOS confirmation. This includes a physical exam, medical history, ultrasound, 2-hour glucose tolerance and other biochemical blood tests, and a Ferriman-Gallwey evaluation for abnormal hirsutism (another characteristic of PCOS). The women will also be tested for pregnancy and zygosity. Their female co-twins will be invited to undergo… | NO | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome | National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) | FEMALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | NIH | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | 999907112|07-E-N112 | 2007-02-27 | 2010-03-01 | 2007-03-07 | 2017-07-02 | Duke University Medical Center, Durham, North Carolina, 27710, United States | |||||||||||
NCT00436865 | Insulin and the Polycystic Ovary Syndrome–Weight Reduction Study | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00436865 | The polycystic ovary syndrome is the leading cause of female infertility in the United States. The disorder affects approximately 6-10% of women of reproductive age. It is widely accepted that “insulin resistance” may be responsible for the infertility of this syndrome. Women are insulin resistant when their bodies do not respond to insulin’s action to handle sugar as they normally should. Because of this insulin resistance, women with the polycystic ovary syndrome are also at high risk for developing type 2 diabetes. We have previously shown that D-chiro-inositol (DCI), a substance naturally found in our body that helps insulin’s action, is lacking in women with the polycystic ovary syndrome. Not having enough DCI may lead to insulin resistance. The purpose of this study is to determine if weight loss helps to replenish the body with DCI and help to promote insulin’s action. | NO | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome|Obesity | BEHAVIORAL: Weight loss | Insulin sensitivity (Change from baseline to 8 weeks), Baseline to 8 weeks|Changes of Serum D-Chiro-Inositol (DCI) concentrations (Change from baseline to 8 weeks), Baseline to 8 weeks|Changes of DCI renal clearance (Change from baseline to 8 weeks), Baseline to 8 weeks|Changes of AUC insulin during OGTT (Change from baseline to 8 weeks), Baseline to 8 weeks|AUC of bioactive DCI-IPG during OGTT (Change from baseline to 8 weeks), Baseline to 8 weeks|Ratio of AUC DCI-IPG to AUC insulin during OGTT (Change from baseline to 8 weeks), Baseline to 8 weeks | Weight loss (Change from baseline to 8 weeks), Baseline to 8 weeks|Serum Myo-Inositol (Myo) concentrations (Change from baseline to 8 weeks), Baseline to 8 weeks|MYO bioactivity (Change from baseline to 8 weeks), Baseline to 8 weeks|Serum inflammatory and cardiovascular markers (Change from baseline to 8 weeks), Baseline to 8 weeks | Virginia Commonwealth University | Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) | FEMALE | ADULT | NA | 79 | OTHER | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: NON_RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: PARALLEL|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: TREATMENT | HM10313|K23HD049454-01A2 | 2007-02 | 2017-12 | 2017-12 | 2007-02-19 | 2018-03-30 | Virginia Commonwealth University General Clinical Research Center, Richmond, Virginia, 23298, United States | ||||

NCT00364949 | Intrauterine Environment in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) Probands | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00364949 | Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is among the most common endocrine disorders in premenopausal women, affecting 7-10% of this population. This syndrome is characterized by elevated levels of testosterone and chronic anovulation, and frequently of obesity. This study is designed to test the hypothesis that there is in utero testosterone excess, altered insulin secretion, and/or intrauterine growth retardation in the female offspring of women with PCOS. The allele 8 can be used to identify the reproductive and metabolic abnormalities associated with PCOS. This study will determine whether allele 8 positive \[A8(+)\] female offspring have more profound changes in these parameters compared to A8(-) female offspring. Androgen and insulin levels in amniotic fluid from pregnant women with PCOS will be compared to levels in pregnant control women. Androgen and insulin levels in cord blood will also be measured. Further, gestational age and anthropomorphic measurements in offspring of women with PCOS will be assessed and compared to that in offspring of matched control women. We will test the hypothesis that androgens are elevated in infancy in the female offspring of women with PCOS. We will assess sex steroids, insulin, and c-peptide levels in infants of PCOS women and compare them to the levels in infants of control women up to 1 year of age during the minipuberty of infancy. We will determine whether any of these parameters differ in A8(+) compared to A8(-) PCOS offspring. | YES | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome | Estradiol Level in Female Offspring, The blood that were analyzed were taken from cord blood and not from the offspring., One time sampling from the cord blood|Androstenedione Level in Female Offspring, cord blood|Testosterone Level in Female Offspring, cord blood|17-hydroxyprogesterone Level in Female Offspring, cord blood|Dihydrotestosterone Level in Female Offspring, cord blood|Dehydroepiandrosterone Level in Female Offspring, cord blood|Infant Birth Weight (Male and Female), birth | Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) | FEMALE | CHILD, ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | 70 | NIH | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | P50HD044405 | 2003-01 | 2012-07 | 2012-07 | 2006-08-16 | 2010-08-18 | 2013-04-10 | Northwestern University School of Medicine, Chicago, Illinois, 60611, United States | |||||||

NCT00341731 | Environmental Factors in the Development of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00341731 | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is manifested as a heterogeneous mixture of clinical and bichemical characteristics that complicate study of its etiology. It is currently unclear to what extent PCOS-associated traits (hyperandrogenism, hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, obesity, and coronary artery disease) are the result of environmental factors or genetic predisposition. We propose to conduct a twin study to investigate the possibility that environmental factors are important in the development of the PCOS phenotype. Twin studies are considered to be the gold standard for determining the extent of heritability of a trait. The proposal described here is only for Step 1 of a larger, multi-step study. The major goal of step 1 is to identify a large cohort of twin pairs, in which at least one member of each pair is likely to have PCOS. Participants for this study will come from the Mid-Atlantic Twin Registry (MATR). Many (3283) potential participants have already been identified based on their answers to a preliminary MATR screening questionnaire. Out of the approximately 7145 twin women of reproductive age who completed these MATR screening questionnaires, 1803 women reported irregular periods, 954 reported ovarian cysts, and 526 reported both irregular periods and ovarian cysts. Many of the women in this last group are likely to have PCOS. They represent 7.4% of the total sample, matching current estimates of PCOS prevalence (4-7%) in reproductive age women. We will also add new twin pairs who meet the criteria (irregular periods and evidence of PCOS or cystic ovaries) as they are recruited into the MATR and take the preliminary surveys. According to MATR statistics, about 33% of twin pairs are monozygotic (MZ, identical). Therefore, approximately 174 of the 526 women likely to have PCOS are members of a MZ pair. Step 1 of the proposed study consists of a telephone survey of the 3282 women with irregular periods and/or ovarian cysts. The survey will be conducted by the MATR. The instrument to be used contains a series of simple and direct questions and will take about 10 minutes to complete. The questions were designed to identify PCOS and their content deals with the frequency of menstrual periods (six or fewer per year being a major diagnostic criterion), a previous diagnosis of PCOS, obesity, excess facial hair and other evidence of hyperandrogenism.

NCT00339469 | Effect of High-Legume Diet on Colorectal Cancer Risk | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00339469 | This study, sponsored by the National Cancer Institute and Penn State University, will examine how a diet high in legumes (dried beans) influences risk factors for colon cancer and polyps. Many scientists believe that colon and rectal cancers develop from polyps (tumors of the lining of the large bowel). This study will test whether a high-legume diet can reduce levels of certain factors (blood insulin, blood glucose, and markers of inflammation such as C-reactive protein) that at elevated levels are known to increase the risk of colorectal polyps and colon cancer. Healthy men between 35 and 75 years of age may be eligible for this study, conducted at Penn State University in University Park, Pennsylvania. Candidates are screened with blood tests and measurements of height, weight, and blood pressure. All candidates must have had a colonoscopy within 2 years of entering the study. They may or may not have had adenomas and may or may not be insulin-resistant. Candidates must not have cancer, heart disease, kidney disease, diabetes, or other serious medical condition, and they must have no history of colorectal cancer, polyp removal, bowel surgery, polyposis syndrome, or inflammatory bowel disease. Participants undergo the following tests and procedures: * Caloric requirement testing: The subject’s resting metabolic rate is measured while fasting and in the early morning at rest to determine daily calorie requirement before beginning the study diet. A special clear plastic hood is placed over the subject’s head while his breathing is measured. He can communicate with the technician at all times during the 30-minute test. * Study diet: Subjects follow two required 4-week diets with a 3-week break in between, followed by an optional third 4-week diet. Subjects eat a healthy American diet for both of the required 4-week diet periods; about 1-1/2 cups of cooked legumes, such as pinto, baked, and navy beans are added to one of the two required diets. For the third (optional) diet period, subjects are given the same 1-1/2 cups of legumes, but are allowed to lose weight. Participants are given packages with all of the food they are to consume during the three diet periods. They may add up to five caffeine-containing beverages per day and up to two alcoholic drinks per week. They must eat all of the food they are given and only the food they are given. Subjects are expected to maintain a constant body weight during the two 4-week required diets, and their caloric intake may be increased or decreased as needed to maintain their screening weight. * Weight measurements: Subjects are weighed regularly at the clinic. * Blood samples: Subjects have blood samples drawn at the mid-point of each of the two required 4-week diets and at the beginning and end of each of the three 4-week diets. * Urine and stool samples: Urine and stool samples are collected at the beginning and end of the two required 4-week diets. | NO | Inflammation|Prevention and Control|Colonic Neoplasms|Diet|Insulin | DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT: LIFE | Biomarkers of insulin resistance and inflammation, At 6 weeks (end of study period) | Weight loss, At 3 weeks | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | MALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | EARLY_PHASE1 | 65 | NIH | INTERVENTIONAL | Allocation: RANDOMIZED|Intervention Model: CROSSOVER|Masking: NONE|Primary Purpose: PREVENTION | 999905215|05-C-N215 | 2005-08-03 | 2008-05-19 | 2018-02-13 | 2006-06-21 | 2019-12-16 | Pennsylvania State University, University Park, Pennsylvania, 16802, United States | |||||
NCT00342771 | An Epidemiological Study of Genetic Risk Factors for Prostate Cancer in African-American and Caucasian Males | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00342771 | This study will examine the association of genetic variants and gene expression patterns with the risk of prostate cancer. There will be (It will include?) genotype analysis of blood DNA from 600 patients with the disease and from 600 healthy people, and there will be a gene expression analysis of prostate tumors. Prostate cancer is a leading cause of death among men in Western countries. It is estimated that 220,000 or more new cases of the disease will occur in the United States during 2004. The disease incidence is rising. About 25% to 30% of the cancers become aggressive. The nonhereditary disease rarely occurs in men who are younger than age 40. There are large differences in incidence by geography and race. The highest rates are seen among African-American men in the United States. Also, although Caucasians have a lower rate of disease incidence and mortality in the United States, the rates among them are high compared with rates in some European countries. The reasons for such differences are not well understood, but both environmental and genetic risk factors are thought to be involved. Patients ages 40 to 80 years who have had prostate cancer confirmed within the past 6 months, who reside in Baltimore City or adjacent metropolitan counties, and who were born in the United States may be eligible for this study. They will be recruited in collaboration with the Departments of Pathology and Urology at the University of Maryland and the Baltimore Veterans Affairs Medical Center. Those men serving as controls in this study will be identified through the Department of Motor Vehicles database and will be matched by age and race with the patients who have cancer. The study will include 600 participants with prostate cancer and 600 participants in the control group. Trained interviewers will administer two questionnaires. The primary questionnaire will be used to assess information such as medical and cancer history, tobacco use, current medications, occupational history, family medical history, and socioeconomic status. A supplemental questionnaire will pertain to patients’ exposure to risk factors for prostate cancer. It will assess the human body, diet, medical history, family medical history, and sexual history. The section on sexual history will be self-administered. Patients will undergo collection of blood and urine for various tests. For cancer patients with prostate surgery, there will also be a collection of tissue, to be performed at the time that the prostate gland is scheduled for surgical removal. The pattern of gene expression will be analyzed in low- and high-stage tumors. There will be no direct benefit from participating in the study, but participants will receive an incentive of up to $75 to participate in the study. No form of treatment is involved in this study. However, it is hoped that the study findings will improve researchers’ understanding of prostate cancer biology with respect to the causes of the health variances between African-Americans and Caucasians. … | NO | Prostate Cancer | Identification of risk factors, association of tobacco use, obesity, inflammation and anti- inflammatory drugs, sexual activity and sexually transmitted diseases, and ancestral markers with prostate cancer and lethal disease, After completion of recruitment|Identification of disease biomarkers, association of blood and/or urine-based metabolites, and blood-based immune- inflammation markers with either ancestry, lifestyle factors, prostate cancer, and lethal disease., Ongoing | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | MALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | 2033 | NIH | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | 999905021|05-C-N021 | 2004-11-08 | 2020-08-06 | 2020-08-06 | 2006-06-21 | 2020-08-14 | University of Maryland Medical Center, Baltimore, Maryland, 21201-1595, United States|VA Hospital, Baltimore, Baltimore, Maryland, United States | ||||||||

NCT00203996 | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and Sleep Apnea | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00203996 | Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects 5-10% of women in the United States. Its onset is usually at the time of puberty with manifestations of menstrual irregularity, hirsutism, and obesity. Women with PCOS suffer at an early stage of adulthood from all of the components of the metabolic syndrome, a syndrome that typically has its peak in mid-life in other subject populations. Women with PCOS are more insulin resistant than weight-matched control women and have exceptionally high rates of early-onset impaired glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes, as well as a substantially elevated risk for hypertension, dyslipidemia, coronary, and other vascular diseases. While recent evidence indicates that the prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is 30-40 fold higher in PCOS than in weight-matched control women, the possible role of SDB in causing the increased metabolic and cardiovascular risks of PCOS has not been evaluated. The overall objective of the proposed study is to analyze the direction of causality between sleep disturbances and markers of the metabolic syndrome in PCOS. | YES | Polycystic Ovary Syndrome|Obstructive Sleep Apnea | DEVICE: continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)|DRUG: depot leuprolide plus estrogen/progestin replacement|DRUG: pioglitazone|PROCEDURE: REM frag|PROCEDURE: SWS supp | Aim 1: Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) [Baseline], Apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) is an index used to assess the severity of sleep apnea based on the total number of complete cessations (apnea) and partial obstructions (hypopnea) of breathing occurring per hour of sleep., baseline|Aim 1: Apnea-hypopnea Index (AHI) [After Treatment], Apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) is an index used to assess the severity of sleep apnea based on the total number of complete cessations (apnea) and partial obstructions (hypopnea) of breathing occurring per hour of sleep., 8 weeks|Aim 2: Insulin Sensitivity Index (SI) From Intravenous Glucose Tolerance Test [Baseline], Insulin sensitivity Index (SI) is the increase in net fractional glucose clearance rate per unit change in plasma insulin concentration after an intravenous glucose load.

NCT00161226 | A Randomized, Controlled, Comparative Study of a Levonorgestrel Intrauterine System for the Prevention of Endometrial Cancer in Patients Aged 40-50 With BMI Greater Than 35 | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00161226 | Endometrial (uterine) cancer affects over 40,000 women each year in the United States. At this time there are no medications to prevent endometrial cancer. Women who are heavy are at increased risk of this cancer. Progestins have been used to treat endometrial hyperplasia and cancer in women who wanted to retain their fertility or who were not surgical candidates. Oral progestins are associated with side effects such as weight gain, mood changes, headaches, and acne. A device called Mirena has a type of progesterone in it. Because it is placed directly in the uterus it can give a powerful amount of progestin with less side effects. In this project, we will enroll 44 women who are aged 40-50 and who have a body mass index (BMI) greater than 40. (BMI is a measure of obesity. Normal is less than 25.) They will be randomized to either observation or treatment. The women in the treatment group will have a levonorgestrel intrauterine system (Mirena, LNG-IUS) placed for one year. All of the women will have endometrial biopsies and blood work at the beginning and end of the study. All of the women will have an ultrasound at the beginning of the study. The information will then be used to assess whether or not the LNG-IUS will be an effective prevention agent. The women will be contacted once a year for 5 years to see if they have had endometrial hyperplasia or cancer. A special lab study called microarray will be used to see what genes are turned on or off in the uterine lining. | NO | Endometrial Cancer | DEVICE: Levonorgestrel intrauterine system | University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey | FEMALE | ADULT | 44 | OTHER | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | 4800|CINJ#100401 | 2004-02 | 2006-06 | 2006-06 | 2005-09-12 | 2009-12-11 | Cancer Institute of New Jersey, New Brunswick, New Jersey, 08901, United States | ||||||||

NCT00038727 | Diabetes Prevention Program Outcomes Study | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00038727 | DPPOS | The Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) was a multi-center trial examining the ability of an intensive lifestyle or metformin to prevent or delay the development of diabetes in a high risk population due to the presence of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT, 2 hour glucose of 140-199 mg/dl). The DPP has ended early demonstrating that lifestyle reduced diabetes onset by 58% and metformin reduced diabetes onset by 31%. DPPOS (2002-2013) is designed to take advantage of the scientifically and clinically valuable DPP participants. This group of participants is nearly 50% minority and represents the largest at risk population ever studied. Clinically important research questions remain that focus on 1) durability of the prior DPP intervention, 2) determination of the clinical course of precisely known new onset diabetes, in particular regarding microvascular disease, CVD risk factors and atherosclerosis, 3) close examination of these topics in men vs women and in minority populations. The major aims of DPPOS-3 (2014-2025) take advantage of the long-term randomized exposure of the study cohort to metformin and the aging of the DPPOS cohort. The metformin exposure and high degree of study retention and adherence (\~85% of the DPPOS cohort continues to attend annual and mid-year visits) allows DPPOS-3 to examine the long-term effects of metformin on cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cancer outcomes, outcomes of great clinical interest and import. | YES | Diabetes Mellitus|Cancer|CVD | BEHAVIORAL: DPPOS Group Lifestyle|DRUG: Metformin|BEHAVIORAL: DPPOS Boost Lifestyle|BEHAVIORAL: Intensive Lifestyle Group Session | Development of Diabetes., Primary outcome for years 2002-2008 defined according to American Diabetes Association criteria (fasting plasma glucose level \>= 126 mg/dL \[7.0 mmol/L\] or 2-hour plasma glucose \>= 200 mg/dL \[11.1 mmol/L\], after a 75 gram oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), and confirmed with a repeat test)., Outcomes were assessed from 1996-2008 (approximately 12 years including 6 years of DPP).|Prevalence of Aggregate Microvascular Complication, Aggregate microvascular disease is defined as the average prevalence of 3 components: (1) retinopathy measured by photography (ETDRS of 20 or greater); (2) neuropathy detected by Semmes Weinstein 10 gram monofilament, and (3) nephropathy based on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR by chronic kidney disease (CKD-Epi) equation ) (\<45 ml/min, confirmed) and albumin-to-creatinine ratio in spot urine (\> 30mg/gm, confirmed)., Outcomes were assessed from 2012-2013 (approximately 2 years).|Total Cancer Except Non-melanoma Skin Cancer, All primary incident cancers except non-melanoma skin cancer, Outcomes were assessed from 1996-2020 (approximately 24 years).|Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (MACE): Myocardial Infarction (MI), Stroke, or Cardiovascular Death (CVD), Defined as MI, stroke and CVD death.

NCT00032344 | Long-term Follow-up Study Designed to Evaluate the Relative Risk of Two Colonoscopy Schedules for Patients With Small Polyps | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00032344 | Colorectal cancer is a leading cause of cancer death in the United States. Mortality remains high because most colorectal cancers are detected after there has been regional or distant spread, precluding curative surgical resection. With this in mind, screening strategies have been recommended for asymptomatic individuals which hope to reduce mortality from colon cancer by detecting and removing premalignant adenomatous polyps or early malignant lesions. Screening of asymptomatic individuals over age 50 with sigmoidoscopy and fecal occult blood tests has been advocated by the American Cancer Society. However, current screening will identify only 50% of patients who have adenomatous polyps. More sensitive tests for polyp detection, like colonoscopy, are costly, require extensive resources and are unlikely to be used for screening large populations. Ideal screening would identify patients with the highest risk of cancer and target more sensitive screening tests at this population. The identification of low cost, easily collectible risk factors which can be used to target patients for the more sensitive screening tests is the primary purpose of this study. Since a major segment of the veteran population is over the age of 50, there will be a substantial impact in reduction of both mortality and morbidity due to colon cancer and attendant cost savings to the VA for treatment if such risk factors can be identified. Phase I is a cross-sectional study designed to identify risk factors for large (\>1 cm) adenomatous polyps. Approximately 3200 asymptomatic subjects (age 50-75) have completed risk factor assessment, medical and dietary histories, and have undergone complete colonoscopy examination. This will identify for comparison purposes a polyp-free control group and is the first large prospective study to include such a group. Data at colonoscopy will characterize the prevalence, size and distribution of adenomatous polyps. This will permit an assessment of sensitivity of sigmoidoscopy in this population. In addition, tissue from normal rectal mucosa will be analyzed for evidence of cell proliferation activity. The primary focus of Phase I is a risk factor analysis. A multivariate analysis will be performed to determine the relationship of historical and environmental factors as well as cell proliferation activity with the presence of adenomatous polyps. A cohort consisting of a subgroup of polyp patients (large and small) and matched polyp-free controls will be tracked longitudinally to determine polyp occurrence/recurrence rates. Phase II of the study is a long-term follow-up study designed to evaluate the relative risk of two repeat colonoscopies. Phase III is an extension in follow-up of an additional five years, a total of ten years in all, to include all study patients. The primary focus will be on documenting long-term mortality and medical outcomes as well as occurrence/reoccurrence of neoplasia with special emphasis on ten-year cancer rates. | NO | Colorectal Cancer | PROCEDURE: Colonoscopy | Phase I: Risk factors include: family history; dietary; fat, fiber, calcium; alcohol history; tobacco use; physical activity; obesity; NSAID use; and, biomarkers: BRDU, PCNA, Cross-sectional | Phase II: Colonoscopy outcomes to determine recurrence rates and compare surveillance strategies, 5 years|Phase III: Medical outcomes including mortality.

NCT00032201 | Cell Lines From High-Risk Breast Tissue | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00032201 | Background: * Many risk factors for breast cancer have been identified, including family history, endocrine background, changes in breast tissue, cancer in one breast, radiation exposure, obesity and others. There is a spectrum of tissue changes seen in cancerous and pre-cancerous breast tissue. * A cell line is a collection of cells that are grown in the laboratory from an original tissue specimen. Cell lines developed from high-risk breast tissue allow researchers to perform metabolic and molecular studies of breast cells over time. Objective: To establish a repository (facility in which tissue samples can be preserved and stored for many years) of cell lines from high-risk breast tissue to allow researchers to learn more about changes in breast cells that may cause them to develop into breast cancer. Eligibility: Women between 20 and 80 years of age who: * Have an increased risk of breast cancer because they are members of a high-risk breast or ovarian cancer family. * Have had breast cancer in one or both breasts. * Have had radiation for lymphoma before the age of 30. * Have a mutation in a breast cancer susceptibility gene, but whose family history is not known. * Are not at increased risk of breast cancer. Design: * A small piece of breast tissue will be obtained from about 10 women without an identified risk of breast cancer and up to 100 women at high risk of developing breast cancer. * Cell lines will be developed from each high-risk category. * The cell lines and tissues will be used to establish a repository of high-risk breast cell lines and breast tissues that can be used to study how the cells develop into breast cancer. | NO | Healthy | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | FEMALE | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | 43 | NIH | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | 020144|02-C-0144 | 2002-03-06 | 2014-12-03 | 2002-03-11 | 2019-12-17 | Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Washington, District of Columbia, 20301, United States|National Institutes of Health Clinical Center, 9000 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, Maryland, 20892, United States | ||||||||||
NCT00006515 | Late Effects of Treatment for Sarcomas in Children | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00006515 | This study will examine late effects of treatment for sarcoma (bone and soft tissue cancers) in children. Survival of patients with these diseases has improved over the years, but long-term adverse effects of treatment have also been noted. Patients previously treated for sarcoma in the NCI’s Pediatric Oncology Branch who are in their first remission from sarcoma after completion of therapy and who have had no further cancer treatment (chemotherapy, radiation therapy, cancer related surgery or immunotherapy) for at least 24 months may be eligible for this 3- to 4-day study. It will review the incidence and extent of the following late effects of therapy. * Heart problems-The chemotherapy drug doxorubicin can cause acute and late injuries to the heart muscle. Patients will undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the heart to look for changes and compare the findings with information obtained by standard echocardiogram (ultrasound test of the heart) and by MUGA (nuclear medicine scan of the heart). * Gonadal dysfunction-The chemotherapy drug cyclophosphamide may affect sex hormone production, leading to infertility, early menopause or brittle bones. Low sex hormone levels may also increase the risk for heart attack, obesity or fracture. Patients will have blood tests to measure hormone levels as well as mineral levels, lipid levels and blood cell counts. They will also have a DEXA scan to measure bone mineral density and a CT scan of the abdomen to evaluate the distribution of fatty tissue in the abdomen. Males will be offered a semen analysis as part of the fertility evaluation. * Psychosocial problems- Cancer diagnosis and treatment pose a major life stress that can lead to problems with personal relationships, jobs, insurance, education, health care, and personal and professional goal setting. Some patients may become depressed or develop a psychiatric illness. Patients will fill out a questionnaire about their treatment, recovery, and aspects of their current life and will meet with a psychologist and psychiatrist. * Changes in bodily function and capabilities-Patients who undergo surgery and radiation to treat sarcoma treatment may experience muscle, bone and joint changes. Patients will be interviewed about their performance of daily activities, physical limitations, and changes in skill levels. They will do a series of exercises and will have measurements of strength, mobility and physical skills, focusing on the parts of the body that were affected by the sarcoma and subsequent local therapy. * Exposure to viruses-A number of patients received blood transfusions as part of their cancer treatment. Some transfusions were given before HIV screening became available. Patients will be tested for this virus as well as the hepatitis virus and HTLV-1 (human T-cell leukemia virus-1), for which there are also small transfusion-associated risks. * Kidney function-The chemotherapy drug ifosfamide may affect kidney function. Patients will provide a urine specimen for kidney function tests. * Immune function-Chemotherapy affects the function of infection-fighting immune cells called T-lymphocytes. A blood sample will be drawn for studies of the time involved in recovering full immune function. | NO | Sarcoma | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | ALL | CHILD, ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | 39 | NIH | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | 010037|01-C-0037 | 2000-11-16 | 2011-11-18 | 2000-11-22 | 2017-07-02 | National Institutes of Health Clinical Center, 9000 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, Maryland, 20892, United States | ||||||||||
NCT00005664 | Evaluation of Patients With Endocrine-Related Conditions | https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00005664 | This study will evaluate patients with a variety of endocrine disorders in order to 1) learn more about conditions that affect the endocrine glands (glands that secrete hormones) and 2) to train physicians in endocrinology. Patients of all ages with endocrine-related conditions may be eligible for evaluation under this protocol. Those enrolled may be required to provide blood, saliva, urine or stool samples, and to undergo ultrasound examination of the thyroid gland, ovaries or testes, adrenal glands or other parts of the body. Laboratory or X-ray studies may be done for diagnostic or treatment purposes. In some cases, patients will receive medical or surgical treatment for their disorder. Patients and family members of patients with a hereditary disorder may be asked to provide a blood sample for genetic analysis. | NO | Adrenal Insufficiency|Pituitary Neoplasm|Obesity | Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) | ALL | ADULT, OLDER_ADULT | 1588 | NIH | OBSERVATIONAL | Observational Model: |Time Perspective: p | 000127|00-CH-0127 | 2000-05-22 | 2019-12-05 | 2000-05-18 | 2019-12-16 | National Institutes of Health Clinical Center, 9000 Rockville Pike, Bethesda, Maryland, 20892, United States |
