Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Group Treatment for Caregivers of Pediatric Brain Tumor Patients
Caregivers of pediatric brain tumor survivors may develop high levels of psychological distress, mostly depression and anxiety, with effects comparable to those of a traumatic event. Several studies suggest that Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing could be a promising treatment in similar clinical populations (i.e. adults with brain tumor), but it has never been used for caregivers of pediatric brain tumor. The aims of the present study will be to test the feasibility of the Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Integrative Group Treatment Protocol for caregivers of pediatric brain tumor survivors in a clinical setting and to evaluate its effectiveness in...

Eye Plaque Brachytherapy for Ocular Melanoma
This prospective registry study will evaluate doses utilized in eye plaque brachytherapy for the treatment of ocular melanoma and their associated outcomes. The goal of this study is to evaluate if lower doses of radiation can maintain high local control rates while minimizing the toxicities related to radiation therapy.

Familial Investigations of Childhood Cancer Predisposition
NOTE: This is a research study and is not meant to be a substitute for clinical genetic testing. Families may never receive results from the study or may receive results many years from the time they enroll. If you are interested in clinical testing please consider seeing a local genetic counselor or other genetics professional. If you have already had clinical genetic testing and meet eligibility criteria for this study as shown in the Eligibility Section, you may enroll regardless of the results of your clinical genetic testing. While it is well recognized that hereditary factors contribute to the development of a subset of human cancers, the cause for many cancers remains...

FCI in Post-operative Low Grade Gliomas
The aim of this pilot study is to explore the utility of a new imaging technique, called Field Cycling Imaging (FCI), in postoperative low grade gliomas. The main question it aims to answer is if FCI can differentiate subtypes of low grade gliomas. Participants will have one FCI scan.

FDG PET/CT in Monitoring Very Early Therapy Response in Patients With Glioblastoma
This pilot clinical trial studies fluordeoxyglucose (fludeoxyglucose) F-18 (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in monitoring very early therapy response in patients with glioblastoma. Diagnostic procedures, such as FDG PET/CT, may help measure a patient's response to earlier treatment. Chemotherapy can induce very rapid changes to the tumor's glucose consumption which can be measured with imaging. FDG PET/CT shortly after the start of therapy may help identify very early therapy response in patients with glioblastoma.

Feasibility/Acceptability of Attentional-Control Training in Survivors
This is a multicenter pilot randomized controlled trial, with an active control condition, of the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of EndeavorRx in a cohort of survivors of acute lymphoblastic leukemia or brain tumor ages 8-16 who are > 1 year from the end of therapy.

Feasibility of 18F-Fluciclovine PET/CT to Identify Brain Metastasis
The goal of this diagnostic intervention clinical trial is to compare 18F-Fluciclovine uptake within brain lesions over 60 minutes compared with standard of care positive histology confirmation or confirmation MRI images. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What are the dynamics of 18F-Fluciclovine update within a non-treated metastatic brain lesion over 60 minutes? 2. What are the dynamics of 18F-fluciclovine update within recently treated metastatic brain lesions? 3. What is the potential use of 18F-Fluciclovine in delineating true local progression from radionecrosis in patients with clinical uncertainty of indeterminate MRI? Participants...
