Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study follows 600 childhood cancer survivors aged 8-18 to understand why symptoms like fatigue, pain, and depression often occur together. Researchers will use questionnaires and stool samples to see if gut bacteria and their byproducts play a role. The goal is to find better ways to manage these symptoms and improve quality of life.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to better ways to manage symptoms like fatigue and pain in childhood cancer survivors, improving their quality of life.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, so it won't test a treatment. The findings may not lead to direct changes in care, and results might not apply to all survivors.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

This study will recruit childhood cancer survivors (CCS) aged 8-18 years and their primary caregivers. Eligible CCS have a clinically confirmed diagnosis of cancer (including leukemia, lymphoma, central nervous system tumors, and other common solid tumors) and are in the rehabilitation/maintenance phase or have completed treatment ≥6 months prior to enrollment. Participants must have no cognitive impairment and be able to understand, communicate, and complete assessments. Primary caregivers aged ≥20 years who provide daily care for eligible CCS will also be included. All participants will provide informed consent/assent. This cohort captures diverse cancer types and survivorship stages to examine symptom clusters, their longitudinal trajectories, and related psychosocial and biological factors, including gut microbiota and metabolites.
