To learn if hypophysectomy (treatment of the pituitary gland) using a type of radiation treatment called stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) can help to relieve cancer-related pain.
To evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a home-based taVNS intervention and follow-up for pain and symptom management in breast cancer survivors. To investigate the impact of taVNS on secondary outcomes, including pain, anxiety, depression, fatigue, and the brain-gut axis (BGA) in breast cancer survivors.
This clinical trial tests a collaborative pain management intervention (ASCENT) for improving cancer pain in cancer survivors. Cancer pain is prevalent, under-treated, and remains a major cause of suffering, impairment, and disability for millions of Americans. Individual pain interventions and care models show promise for cancer pain in controlled settings. …
A prospective longitudinal cohort study that will assess the effect of a Personalized Medicine (PM) clinic recommendations on pharmacogenetic variation and/or interacting drugs on plasma drug exposure, effectiveness or toxicity of commonly used antidepressant, pain, and antiemetic medications in cancer patients. Such recommendations will entail genotype-guided treatment suggestions while also …
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the impact of reducing the volume of palliative metastatic bone irradiation on analgesic effectiveness at day 30 and to evaluate the efficiency of telemonitoring in identifying patients who could benefit from Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs) and require care. These objectives will be …
The primary objective is to evaluate the effect of loading boluses when dose incresaing treatment with SC fentanyl in patients with cancer. The primary endpoint of this study is to prove the non-inferiority of fentanyl plasma concentrations 12 hours after dose augmentation compared to 48 hours after dose augmentation within …
This study generates information on the feasibility and acceptability of a 3-month ecological momentary assessment (EMA) protocol to assess chronic pain and opioid use in adolescent and young adult (AYA) sarcoma survivors.
The overall objective of this study is to assess the feasibility, safety and preliminary efficacy of psilocybin-assisted therapy to alleviate opioid-refractory pain in patients with advanced-cancer. The name of the study intervention used in this research study is: Psilocybin (a tryptamine derivative)
To learn about the effectiveness of taking the antipsychotic medication olanzapine to help lower opioid craving.
This proposal is relevant to the 240,000 cancer survivors who continue to use opioids long after they have successfully completed treatment for cancer at the VHA, placing them at risk of opioid addiction and overdose, and other opioid-related problems. Yet, there are no programs at the VHA to help them …
