Brief Title: Epigenetic and Metabolomic Changes in Childhood Cancer Survivors
Official Title: Epigenetic and Metabolomic Changes in Childhood Cancer Survivors as a Late Effect of Treatment - a Pilot Study
Study ID: NCT03866707
Brief Summary: The purpose of this research study is to try and identify markers in childhood cancer survivors to help predict if they will develop late effects from their cancer treatment.
Detailed Description: This is a pilot study to obtain preliminary data that will be used to apply for a larger grant to fund the full study with an adequate sample size for analysis. Specific Aim 1. What are the epigenetic differences between children treated for childhood cancers and healthy controls matched for age, sex, ethnicity, geographic region, and tanner stage. Specific Aim 2. Compare the metabolomic differences between children treated for childhood cancers and healthy controls matched for age, sex, ethnicity, geographic region, and tanner stage.
