NCT02309242

Brief Summary

The aim of the proposed project is to study the long-term impact of adjuvant systemic multi- agent chemotherapy (cisplatin, anthracyclines, vincristine, methotrexate, alkylating agents) in survivors (treated between 1992 and 2014 in UZ Leuven) of paediatric bone or soft tissue sarcomas on neurocognitive functioning.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Neuropsychological functioning

    4 years

Study Arms (1)

Neuropsychological assessment, MRI

NO INTERVENTION

This is a cross-sectional mono-center study examining survivors who were exposed to chemotherapy for bone or soft tissue sarcomas in childhood. Survivors of bone or soft tissue sarcomas will be examined with neuropsychological tests, questionnaires and advanced MR imaging (Neuropsychological assessment, MRI). Results will be compared to a healthy control group matched for age and sex.

Behavioral: Neuropsychological assessment, MRI

Interventions

All subjects will be imaged (MRI) on the same 3T Philips scanner with a 32-channel phased-array head coil, located in the radiology department at UZ Leuven. For the neuropsychological assessment we will implement an extended neuropsychological assessment battery: ANT, CMS, Rey, BRIEF, WISC III, PedsQL, STAI, BDi, achenbach questionnaires

Eligibility Criteria

Age7 Years - 25 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Survivors of paediatric bone or soft tissue sarcomas, who were treated from 1992 onwards in the paediatric haematooncology department of UZLeuven according to one of the following treatment protocols.
  • \*For soft tissue sarcomas: MMT 95, MMT 98, RMS2005 or NRST2005
  • \*For Ewing sarcoma: EICESS 92, Euro-Ewing 99 or Euro-Ewing 2008
  • \*For osteosarcoma: EORTC 80931 or Euramos1 protocols
  • There will be variability in treatment regimens, but the patient group will be clustered into four subgroups:
  • Cisplatin and anthracyclines
  • Cisplatin, anthracyclines and methotrexate
  • Alkylating agents
  • Alkylating agents and anthracyclines

You may not qualify if:

  • Mental retardation documented before treatment
  • Inability to perform the tests because of motor or sensory deficits
  • Epilepsy
  • Other cognitive disorders
  • Depression
  • Relapse
  • Parameningeal or intracranial sarcomas
  • Syndrome (e.g. Down)
  • Autologous stemcell transplantation
  • Head/neck/spinal radiotherapy or psychopharmaca
