STRATEGIES FOR RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION Sample Clauses

STRATEGIES FOR RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION. All patients treated at SickKids who meet Inclusion Criteria will be offered participation in the study after first line chemotherapy has been completed. All of the patients must be under 18 at time of enrollment, however, there are no gender, race, or ethnicity-based limitations or other requirements. The anticipated accrual rate based on 20 retrospective SickKids eligible patients between May 2015 and October 2018 is 7 patients per year who would have met the Inclusion Criteria. The target study sample size ranges from 4 (four) with early dose limiting toxicity terminating the study, to 24 (twenty-four) patients in the case of dose limiting. If there are no patients with no dose limiting toxicities, only 14 patients will be needed to assess all dose levels. Assuming 20% refusal rate, we estimate 5 enrolled patients per year. Accrual would be complete in approximately 5 years. Non- SickKids patients who meet the eligibility criteria may be referred and registered as SickKids patients, as is common across Canada to meet the standard of care. Because the study requires multiple visits over the course of a few months and expects 5 year follow up, patient families will be contacted regularly to encourage the continuation of participation and follow-up with further treatments by the standard of care.
