RECRUITING

Defining Treatment Outcomes and Genetic Architecture in Idiopathic Toe Walking*

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

To compare and contrast the clinical, gait and parent-reported outcomes following either non-operative (casting) or operative treatment for children with idiopathic toe walking (ITW) and determine whether there are specific genes associated with ITW.
