Morphea in Adults and Children (MAC) Cohort Study: A Morphea Registry and DNA Repository

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

The Morphea in Adults and Children (MAC) cohort is the first registry for both children and adults with morphea (also known as localized scleroderma) in the country. The purpose of the registry is to learn more about morphea, specifically: * How morphea behaves over time * How frequently specific problems occur along with morphea (for example, arthritis) * Whether morphea has an autoimmune background

Official Title
