Study stress levels in newly diagnosed brain tumor patients
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study looks at whether psychological stress is linked to how newly diagnosed oligodendroglioma progresses into a more aggressive brain tumor. You may help researchers understand stress patterns during standard chemo-radiation treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be at least 18 years old
- Be well enough to do daily activities (Karnofsky score 70% or higher)
- Have a confirmed brain tumor diagnosis called oligodendroglioma that has not been treated before and start standard chemo-radiation
- No prior mental illness, drug abuse, or alcohol abuse
- Be able to communicate and read/write on your own
- Be willing and able to follow the study steps and sign consent

This study looks at whether psychological stress is linked to how a diffuse astrocytoma grows and changes into a more aggressive secondary brain tumor. It may help doctors better understand stress-related factors during standard treatment, and how to monitor patients more closely.
This study looks at the emotional and mental health of people with glioblastoma (a type of brain tumor) or head and neck cancer who are getting a long course of radiation therapy. The goal is to understand how they are feeling so doctors can provide better support.
This trial studies how a stress therapy might affect gene activity in people with glioma (a type of brain tumor). It mainly looks to see if this kind of treatment is safe and suitable for eligible participants.
This trial studies how psychological stress might affect the success of pre-surgery breast cancer treatments (neoadjuvant therapy). If you are about to start treatment and have never had cancer therapy before, this study could help doctors understand your response better.
This study tests a personalized video meant to reduce stress and anxiety for people getting radiation for brain tumors, and for their caregivers. You and your caregiver would complete short questionnaires before and after using the video support.
This study follows adults with a primary brain tumor to understand how thinking skills and brain images change over time during radiation therapy. It may help researchers measure treatment effects and better track brain changes.
