Testing the Use of Chemotherapy After Surgery for High-Risk Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors
Recruiting
This phase II trial studies the effect of capecitabine and temozolomide after surgery in treating patients with high-risk well-differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. Chemotherapy drugs, such as capecitabine and temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving capecitabine and temozolomide after surgery could prevent or delay the return of cancer in patients wit... Read More

S1703 Serum Tumor Marker Directed Disease Monitoring in Patients With Hormone Receptor Positive Her2 Negative Metastatic Breast Cancer
Recruiting
This randomized research trial studies how well serum tumor marker directed disease monitoring works in monitoring patients with hormone receptor positive Her2 negative breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body.

Trial of Transurethral Bulking Agent Injection Versus Single-Incision Sling for Stress Urinary Incontinence
Recruiting
This is a multicentered, double-blind, randomized controlled, surgical trial of 358 women with inadequate symptom relief of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) or stress predominant mixed urinary incontinence (MUI) after conservative care. The Primary Aim is to determine the comparative effectiveness (as defined by "much" or "very much" better on PGI-I) of transurethral bulking agent (TBA) \[for 1 or 2 injections in 12 months\] vs. single-incision sling (SIS) 12 months after treatment interventio...

Implementing Contingency Management for Stimulant Use in Specialty Addiction Treatment Organizations
Recruiting
Stimulants constitute a new and deadly fourth wave of the opioid epidemic. Contingency management is the most effective intervention for stimulant use and is an evidence-based adjunct to medication for opioid use disorder. Yet, uptake of contingency management in opioid treatment programs that provide medication for opioid use disorder remains low; in fact, access to contingency management is arguably one of the greatest research-to-practice gaps in the addiction treatment services field. The go... Read More

Comparing Cooling and/or Compression Approaches of Limbs for Prevention of Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy
Recruiting
This phase III trial compares the effect of 3 study approaches in preventing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy: 1) cryocompression, 2) continuous compression, and 3) low cyclic compression. Taxane chemotherapy drugs, such as paclitaxel or docetaxel, can cause a nerve disorder called peripheral neuropathy, which can cause numbness, tingling, or pain in the arms and legs.
