Genetic Analysis in Identifying Late-Occurring Complications in Childhood Cancer Survivors

Major Program

Supportive Care and Symptom Management

Research Group

Community Oncology and Prevention Trials

Status

Active, not recruiting

NCT ID

NCT00082745

This clinical trial studies cancer survivors to identify those who are at increased risk of developing late-occurring complications after undergoing treatment for childhood cancer. A patient's genes may affect the risk of developing complications, such as congestive heart failure, avascular necrosis, stroke, and second cancer, years after undergoing cancer treatment. Genetic studies may help doctors identify survivors of childhood cancer who are more likely to develop late complications.

Intervention

Laboratory Biomarker Analysis, Questionnaire Administration

Condition

Childhood Malignant Neoplasm
