Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

8 years to 18 years (Child, Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient between the ages of 8 and 18
  • Patient has a history of pediatric cancer
  • Patient is at least 6 months posttreatment completion
  • Patient and caregiver are fluent in English, as intervention materials are only available in English at this time.
  • Patient demonstrates deficits in attention and/or executive functioning as evidenced by either (a) performance below one standard deviation on at least one cognitive measure of attention or executive functioning, such as on the Conners Continuous Performance Test (CPT-3), Trail making Test A & B, Children's Category Test (CCT), and Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) and/or (b) executive functioning and attention problems are identified during screening with the research assistant.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patient has a history of treatment for a pediatric brain tumor
  • Patient has a history of traumatic brain injury or seizures
  • Patient has a history of a developmental disorder (i.e., autism, intellectual disability), behavioral disorder (i.e., oppositional defiant disorder, conduct disorder), or mood disorder (i.e., disruptive mood dysregulation disorder) that would negatively interfere with patient's participation in the intervention.
