Cancer Therapy Effects on the Heart

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Anthracycline chemotherapies (e.g. doxorubicin, daunorubicin) are commonly given to treat pediatric cancer, and carry a risk of cardiotoxicity. Over the long term, children who receive these therapies have an increased risk of heart failure and early cardiovascular death. However, current strategies for identifying patients who are at risk prior to the development of significant changes in heart function are limited. This study will focus on imaging markers of cardiac injury and dysfunction with the goal of developing improved diagnostic tests and treatment strategies.

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.

Ages Eligible for Study:13 Years to 39 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:CHILD, ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * English and Spanish speaking male and female subjects, ages 13-39 years old
  2. * Diagnosis of cancer at age \<22 years
  3. * Previously treated with anthracyline therapy for cancer, with diagnosis at least two years prior.
  1. * Patients who have a contraindication to cardiac MRI, including the presence of non-MRI compatible metallic implants.
  2. * Medical, psychiatric, and/or social disorder that would prevent successful completion of planned study testing or would preclude the subject from undergoing the cardiac MRI without anesthesia.
  3. * Patients with a history of congenital heart disease (more significant than a history of patent foramen ovale or patent ductus arteriosus).
  4. * Patients with orthodontic braces or metallic implants in the thorax or abdomen/lumbar spine, even if MRI-compatible, will be excluded as these may cause artifacts and limit image quality.
  5. * Pregnancy.
