RECRUITING

Molecular Epidemiology of Pediatric Germ Cell Tumors

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

A Non-Therapeutic Study that aims to establish a cohort of GCT survivors to understand short term and long-term adverse effects of treatment and to conduct molecular analyses to improve risk stratification.

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:Not specified
Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:CHILD, ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * Cases will be eligible for the study if they have a primary diagnosis of GCT including germinoma (ICCC code105 9060-9065), teratoma (9080-9084), embryonal carcinoma (9070-9072), yolk sac tumor (9071), choriocarcinoma (9100, 9103, 9104), and mixed GCT (9085, 9101, 9102, 9105) in all sites including the brain.
  2. * The patient must be enrolled on APEC14B1 with consent to future contact or enrolled in AEPI10N1 with consent for future contact (N=827). Patients enrolled in AEPI10N1 were recruited from ACCRN07. All patients must be registered with COG by a North American member institution. Note: (history of) treatment on a COG therapeutic trial is not required.
  3. * Patients must be diagnosed at \< 20 years of age at the time of GCT diagnosis. Study participants will be followed over time in the survivorship study so there is no maximum age for participation.
  4. * Participants must be able to complete study related documents in English or Spanish.
  5. * All patients and/or their parents or legal guardians must provide informed consent. Assent will be obtained for participants between the ages of 8-17 years.
  6. * All institutional, FDA, and NCI requirements for human studies must be met.
  1. * Participants from AEPI10N1 who did not consent to future contact. Patients who do not meet the eligibility criteria described above or cannot complete study materials in English or Spanish
