In addition, this study will see if certain factors affect how well participants respond to music therapy or cognitive behavioral therapy. For example, the researchers will see if personal characteristics (like age, sex, race, and education) and ways of thinking (like expectations of therapy) may affect how well participants respond.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether it is practical (feasible) to use acupuncture to treat period loss (amenorrhea) caused by chemotherapy treatment in people with cancer. The researchers will look at how many participants enroll and complete the study. The researchers will also study how treatment with acupuncture affects the amount of time for the menstrual cycle to return and symptoms and quality of life related to amenorrhea.

The researchers are doing this study to learn more about factors that may increase the risk of lung cancer in people who have never smoked. This information may help predict which people who have never smoked may be more likely to get lung cancer.

The researchers are doing this study to find out whether PK-targeted fludarabine is an effective Lymphodepletion (LD) chemotherapy approach for people with relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) who will receive tisagenlecleucel CAR T-cell therapy. The researchers will compare PK-targeted fludarabine dosing with standard fludarabine dosing to see which treatment approach is more effective. The researchers will also look at whether PK-targeted fludarabine dosing is feasible (practical), the side effects of the study treatment, and how the study treatment affects people's quality of life. The researchers will measure quality of life by having participants complete questionnaires.

The researchers are doing this study to find out whether combining teclistamab and mezigdomide is a safe and effective treatment approach in people with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (MM).

This study will compare the safety and effects of HAI floxuridine and dexamethasone combined with the standard chemotherapy drugs gemcitabine and oxaliplatin (GemOx) with those of GemOx alone in people with untreated cholangiocarcinoma that cannot be removed with surgery. The researchers want to find out whether the study treatment works better than the standard chemotherapy to delay progression of disease. For the study treatment to be considered better than the standard treatment, the study treatment should increase the time until progression of disease by an average of 3 months, compared with the usual approach.

The purpose of this study is to find out if a psychotherapy method called brief behavioral activation (BBA) can improve depression, anxiety, and overall well-being and encourage healthy lifestyle behaviors in English- and Spanish-speaking Older Adult Cancer Survivors (OACS). BBA is a therapeutic technique that guides people to set goals and engage in enjoyable or rewarding activities as a way of changing behavior and reducing symptoms of depression. In this study, BBA will be given by telephone or videoconference (remotely).

The purpose of this study is to find out if it is practical (feasible) to give dose-dense CMF (cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, and fluorouracil) in two standard chemotherapy regimens in people with breast cancer, age 70 and older.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety of the study drug 2141-V11 in people whose NMIBC did not respond to standard treatment, and who will not have the standard surgical procedure to remove the bladder. The researchers will test different doses of 2141-V11 to see which dose is safest in people. The researchers will also do tests to see how the body absorbs, distributes, and gets rid of 2141-V11. This study is one of the first to test 2141-V11 in people, and the first to test 2141-V11 delivered through a catheter into the bladder.

The purpose of this study is to develop a minimally invasive test to diagnose pancreatic cancer at early stages of disease and monitor response to treatment.
