Determining Patterns In Study Experiences of Neuroblastoma Patients
Historically, participation in clinical research is highly skewed towards particular demographic groups of people. This study will invite several participants to gather a wide range of information on clinical trial experiences for neuroblastoma patients. The aim of the study is to identify the factors that limit the ability of a person to enroll in, as well as complete a clinical trial for treatment of neuroblastoma. The data collected from this study will help improve future outcomes for all neuroblastoma patients as well as those in under-represented demographic groups.

Development of a Predictive Model for the Risk of Metastatic Disease in PPGLs, a Retrospective Cohort Study
Phaeochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) are tumours of the adrenal medulla and extra-adrenal sympathetic nervous system, some which can become metastatic. It is a very rare disease and the tumours are often detected late. Approximately 50 % of the tumours are caused by germline genetic variants screening programmes are recommended for patients and their family members; however, they are not yet well-targeted with respect to individual prognosis. In this study the investigatorscaim to characterize the genotype-phenotype associations in all Danish patients (n=400) diagnosed with PPGLs who have been followed in tertiary centres using medical records and national registries....

Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) and AMXT-1501 for Neuroblastoma, CNS Tumors, and Sarcomas
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the investigational drug AMXT 1501 (a pill taken by mouth) in combination with the drug difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) for infusion administered intravenously (IV; a liquid that continuously goes into your body through a tube that has been placed during a surgery into one of your veins). An investigational drug is one that has not been approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA), or any other regulatory authorities around the world for use alone or in combination with any drug, for the condition or illness it is being used to treat. The goals of this part of the study are: - Establish a recommended dose of AMXT 1501 in...

Digital Art Therapy for Young Cancer Survivors
This is a single-site, single-arm, interventional study assessing the feasibility of the ARTCan Therapy Application (App) and whether it is an acceptable means of administering art therapy to young adult cancer survivors. The ARTCan Therapy App guides participants through a 6-week digital art therapy program. Subjects will participate in weekly art therapy prompts guided by the app and will complete weekly mental health quality of life (MHQoL) surveys during the intervention. In addition, baseline and end-of-intervention patient-reported outcome measures (PROMIS-DSF8a) and an acceptability survey will be administered. The hypothesis is that digital art therapy is feasible for young...

Direct Comparison of Ga-68-DOTATATE and Ga-68-DOTATOC
The goal of this study is to propose the first direct comparison of Ga-68-DOTATATE PET/CT or PET/MR and Ga-68-DOTATOC PET/CT in patients with meningioma.

Does Perioperative Intravenous Magnesium Affect Postoperative Quality of Recovery in Craniotomy Surgery Patients?
Perioperative pain management for craniotomy patients may be challenging because the commonly used agents such as opioids, gabapentin, and dexmedetomidine also cause sedation, which can confound the neurological exam and can lead to respiratory depression and increased intracranial pressure. Preoperative intravenous magnesium boluses and infusions have previously been established as an effective, nonsedating analgesic that can reduce opioid consumption 25-30% up to 48 hours postoperatively. However, intravenous magnesium has not seen widespread use in craniotomy patients due to concerns for interference with the neurological monitoring that commonly occurs in these cases....

Early Phase Study of Kesonotide in Participants With Solid Tumours
This clinical trial is an adaptive study of a novel vimentin inhibitor in cancers. It is an open label, multicentre, single ascending dose level in phase I and cohort exploration in phase II. Primary objective is to evaluate safety and tolerability of kesonotide as a monotherapy in participants with advanced/metastatic solid cancers. Secondary objective is to characterise the pharmacokinetics of kesonotide. Phase I study will enrol 20-32 participants and Phase II approximately 80 participants.

Early Rehabilitation Using Head Impulse Test for Acute Vestibular Deficit
The vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) induces a compensatory movement in the eye when the head is rotated, to maintain stable vision when we move. It originates in the peripheral vestibular system, which detects head movements. It is particularly effective for rapid head movements, as tested in the Head Impulse Test (HIT). In acute unilateral vestibular deficit (AUVD), the VOR deficit is compensated for by a substitution saccade, more commonly known as catch up saccade, that contribute to refocus the gaze and maintain vision during head rotations. Recent technological advances have made it possible to make high-quality recordings during HIT (video Head Impulse Test, vHIT), leading...
