Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to learn about possible changes in brain anatomy and in thinking abilities, such as memory skills, in patients with cancer who receive treatment with chemotherapy alone or in combination with total body radiation before undergoing stem cell transplantation.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

A

TBI and Chemotherapy Conditioning Regimen. Twenty (20) patients will undergo conditioning treatment with TBI and chemotherapy prior to receiving a myeloablative allogeneic or an autologous HSCT.

MRI and cognitive evaluation

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Patients will undergo a brain MRI study and a brief neuropsychological evaluation, at the time of enrollment for controls and prior to undergoing the conditioning treatment required for the stem cell transplant for patients. A follow-up MRI and cognitive evaluation will be performed approximately 12 months after the transplant for patients.

B

Chemotherapy Alone Conditioning Regimen Twenty (20) patients will undergo conditioning treatment with an all chemotherapy regimen prior to receiving an allogeneic or an autologous HSCT.

MRI and cognitive evaluation

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Pt will undergo a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) study of the brain and a brief neuropsychological evaluation, at the time of enrollment for healthy controls and prior to undergoing the conditioning treatment required for the stem cell transplant for patients (Baseline/Time 1).

C

A cohort of twenty (20) healthy controls, frequency matched on age, gender, and education, will be recruited at WCMC to participate in the study.

brain MRI study and a brief neuropsychological evaluation

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

A brain MRI study and a brief neuropsychological evaluation will be performed at baseline (Time 1). A follow-up MRI and cognitive evaluation will be performed and about 12 months after the baseline for healthy controls
