KIDNEY TUMOR

This study tests whether special MRI and CT scans can accurately measure the stiffness of kidney tumors. Researchers will compare these scans to standard methods in 50 adults scheduled for kidney tumor surgery. The goal is to improve 3D-printed models that help surgeons plan oper…

This study follows about 50,000 people who survived childhood cancer (diagnosed before age 21 between 1970 and 1999) and 10,000 of their siblings. Researchers want to understand how cancer treatments like radiation, chemotherapy, and surgery affect health years later. By comparin…

This study aims to create immune organoids—tiny lab-grown models of the immune system—using cells from children and young adults with brain tumors, kidney tumors, neuroblastoma, or sarcoma. Researchers will mix these organoids with tumor cells to see how they interact. The goal i…

This study is testing whether smartwatches and blood tests can measure how well children recover after surgery to remove a solid tumor. About 40 children and their caregivers will wear smartwatches and answer questionnaires before surgery and for up to a year after. Researchers w…

This study tests a web-based decision aid for people with small kidney tumors (up to 4 cm). The tool provides personalized information about treatment options and their risks and benefits. Researchers will enroll 40 patients to see if the tool improves knowledge, satisfaction, an…
