Remote test for nerve problems after childhood cancer
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests if a remote, at-home approach can identify problems with the autonomic nervous system (the part that controls heart rate, blood pressure, and digestion) in adult survivors of childhood leukemia or lymphoma. If you join, you will complete a set of simple tasks (the Ewing battery) from home to see how your body responds.

This study uses imaging to look at how well the mitochondria (the tiny power plants inside your muscle cells) are working. It compares survivors of childhood leukemia who have low muscle mass to healthy volunteers, to understand muscle health and find ways to help.
This study looks at how children and teens manage everyday activities like dressing, eating, and moving around right after finishing treatment for leukemia or lymphoma. It aims to understand their needs and help improve recovery support.
This study tests whether doing gentle exercise at home can help protect your heart during stem cell transplant treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (a type of blood cancer). You'll use a smartphone app to guide daily workouts designed to be safe and manageable during your treatment.
This trial tests a live, remote exercise program designed for cancer survivors who have completed their main treatment. It aims to improve side effects like fatigue, low physical function, anxiety, or nerve pain. You participate from home using video calls.
This trial tests whether a tailored, home-based exercise plan can improve exercise capacity (how far and how safely you can be active) in people receiving cancer treatments that may affect the heart. It may help you build safer stamina while monitoring your heart health.
This study checks how well remote (at-home) symptom check-ins work for people with certain cancers. It may help patients and clinicians spot problems earlier and improve day-to-day care during treatment and beyond.
