Observation or Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Newly Diagnosed Grade II Meningioma That Has Been Completely Removed by Surgery

18 years or above
All genders
Phase 3
Interventional
This randomized phase III trial studies how well radiation therapy works compared with observation in treating patients with newly diagnosed grade II meningioma that has been completely removed by surgery. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors.

9 years - 14 years
Accepts healthy volunteer
All genders
Is your child about to make the transition from elementary school to middle school?  Join the BURST study! What is the BURST study?The Behavior, Understanding, and Relationships During School Transition (BURST) Study aims to understand the complex relationships between puberty, cognition, social relationships, and health that occur during the transition from elementary school to middle school. We are particularly interested in how youth’s bodies and minds are changing and growing (e.g., their pubertal development, their cognitive development), their social relationships (e.g., with their parents, teachers, and friends), and their health behaviors (e.g., when they sleep, their mental health).  Who can take part?Children (ages of 9 – 14) who are about to make the transition into middle school from elementary school.

Nivolumab and Tovorafenib for Treatment of Craniopharyngioma in Children and Young Adults

S
Scott Coven
1 year - 39 years
All genders
Phase 2
Interventional
The current study assesses the tolerability and efficacy of combination therapy with PD-1 (nivolumab) and pan-RAF-kinase (Tovorafenib) inhibition for the treatment of children and young adults with craniopharyngioma.THIS STUDY IS ENROLLING BY INVITATION ONLY - Consistent with most oncology trials, patients are not actively “recruited,” but are screened by their physician for appropriate clinical trial(s) at the time of their routine clinic visit. Occasionally, a patient may be a self-referral or physician referral, but are still screened for appropriate clinical trials at the time of their routine clinic visit. PI and staff may send copies of relevant consent forms to these patients to look over prior to actually consenting or enrolling them. This may take place at the patient's visit at which the consent is presented or the patient's next visit to the outpatient hematology/oncology clinic. Interested in participating?

A Study With Tovorafenib (DAY101) as a Treatment Option for Progressive, Relapsed, or Refractory Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis

Anthony Ross
180 days - 22 years
All genders
Phase 2
Interventional
This phase II trial tests the safety, side effects, best dose and activity of tovorafenib (DAY101) in treating patients with Langerhans cell histiocytosis that is growing, spreading, or getting worse (progressive), has come back (relapsed) after previous treatment, or does not respond to therapy (refractory). Langerhans cell histiocytosis is a type of disease that occurs when the body makes too many immature Langerhans cells (a type of white blood cell). When these cells build up, they can form tumors in certain tissues and organs including bones, skin, lungs and pituitary gland and can damage them. This tumor is more common in children and young adults. DAY101 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Using DAY101 may be effective in treating patients with relapsed or refractory Langerhans cell histiocytosis.THIS STUDY IS ENROLLING BY INVITATION ONLY - Consistent with most oncology trials, patients are not actively “recruited,” but are screened by their physician for appropriate clinical trial(s) at the time of their routine clinic visit.

Targeting metabolic syndrome from the emergency department through mixed-methods: pilot trial

Lauren K Stewart
18 years - 100 years
All genders
Interventional
The purpose of this study is to pilot a multifaceted intervention for at-risk emergency department patients (i.e. those with an elevated BMI and at least one additional metabolic syndrome risk factor) to establish feasibility. Our composite intervention will include an educational video outlining the adverse effects of metabolic syndrome and the benefits of walking, a written exercise prescription with a defined goal of walking 150 minutes per week, a Fitbit accelerometer device, resources for healthy eating, periodic text message reminders to encourage activity, and a referral to outpatient follow-up. We plan to track physical activity (including number of steps and minutes spent active) using the Fitbit device with the goal of better understanding how to motivate patients to increase walking behavior.THIS STUDY IS ENROLLING BY INVITATION ONLY - Patients presenting to the Eskenazi Health Emergency Department will be screened via real-time surveillance of the tracking board for eligibility. Patients that meet study criteria based on medical record review will be approached in-person for study enrollment, consent, baseline intervention during their clinical ED visit.
