E-Mindfulness Approaches for Living After Breast Cancer

Breast Cancer · Depression

NRG-CC015 is a prospective, randomized phase III clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of two distinct digital approaches for delivering a mindfulness-based intervention: a live, instructor-led version delivered over Zoom (MAPs LO), and an app-based, self-paced version (MAPs App). Participants will include younger breast cancer survivors (BCS) who were diagnosed with breast cancer at or before age 50 years, have completed their primary cancer treatment (i.e., surgery, radiation, and/or chemotherapy) at least 6 months earlier, and report elevated depressive symptoms.

Zelquistinel or Placebo for the Reduction of Symptoms of Major Depressive Disorder

Major Depressive Disorder

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if zelquistinel works to treat depression in adults. It will also learn about the safety of zelquistinel. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does zelquistinel reduce depression scores in participants compared to participants who take a placebo (a look-alike tablet that contains no zelquistinel)? What medical problems are observed in participants who take zelquistinel? Participants will take one tablet of zelquistinel or placebo every week for 6 weeks. Participants will visit the clinic every week of the 6 week period to have the severity of their depression evaluated.

Improving Behavioral Health for Caregivers and Children After Pediatric Injury

Quality of Life · PTSD · Depression Not Otherwise Specified

Pediatric traumatic injury (PTI) is a public health priority, with more than 125,000 children experiencing injuries that require hospitalization each year. These children, and their caregivers, are affected in many ways that may affect quality of life, emotional and behavioral health, physical recovery, family roles and routines, and academic functioning; yet US trauma centers do not adequately address these outcomes and a scalable national model of care for these families is needed. This proposal builds on prior research from the investigative team to test a technology-assisted, stepped care behavioral health intervention for children (\<12 years) and their caregivers after PTI, CAARE (Caregivers' Aid to Accelerate Recovery after pediatric Emergencies), via a hybrid type I effectiveness-implementation trial with 348 families randomly assigned to CAARE (n=174) vs. guideline-adherent enhanced usual care (EUC) (n=174).

Massage, Oncology, Pain, Anxiety, Feasibility

Gynecologic Cancer

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the feasibility of studying massage therapy in patients with gynecologic cancers while receiving infusion treatments. The central hypothesis is that it is feasible to implement a massage intervention study in an infusion center at an academic hospital, and measure pain and anxiety in patients with gynecological cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can investigators evaluate feasibility to conduct a study from a design standpoint? Can investigators assess the use of randomization, blinding of assessors, potential to control the study with an attention group, and recruitment/retention processes? Can investigators successfully collect outcome measures of pain and anxiety, pre/post intervention? Researchers will investigate degree of resources needed, such as massage therapists, assessors, and timing of delivery intervention. Assess positive/negative effects on target population determining massage modality and anatomical location. Researchers will compare massage therapy to an attention control group, to see if massage therapy works to treat pain and anxiety in patients with cancer. Establish variability in outcome measures. Participants will: Be randomized and receive either massage therapy or attention control over the course of three consecutive infusion therapy treatments. Each infusion therapy treatment occurs every 2-4 weeks.

Animal Assisted Therapy

Anxiety · Trauma · Hospitalized Adult Patients

This study looks at whether walking with a therapy dog helps adult and pediatric trauma patients move more during their hospital stay. Early movement after an injury or surgery can prevent problems such as blood clots, pressure sores, and muscle loss, but pain and anxiety often make it hard for patients to get out of bed. Each patient in this study takes part in two walking sessions-one with a certified therapy dog and one without a dog. The order is randomized, so some patients walk with the dog first and others walk without the dog first. Before and after each walk, patients fill out short surveys about their pain, anxiety, and motivation to move. The research team measures how far and how long each patient walks in both sessions. The goal of this project is to see if therapy dog visits can safely and effectively improve mobility, reduce pain and anxiety, and make walking more enjoyable for trauma patients. Findings from this study may help hospitals design better rehabilitation programs that use animal-assisted therapy to support physical and emotional recovery.
