Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05124236Recruiting
Pre-surgery vs post-surgery focused radiation for brain metastases
This trial compares two ways of giving focused radiation for brain metastases: before surgery or after surgery. It aims to see which timing works better to control tumors while keeping you safe.
InnsbruckAges 18 years+ - NCT05183074Recruiting
MRI-guided focused radiation for prostate cancer
This trial tests a newer way to plan and deliver radiation for prostate cancer using real-time MRI guidance. It may help by aiming high-dose treatment precisely while treating nearby disease and (in some cases) limited metastatic spots.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05344235Recruiting
Study of very short radiation schedules for prostate cancer
This observational study looks at how well men with localized prostate cancer do when treated with an unusually short radiation approach. It may help doctors understand which patients benefit most by tracking outcomes and imaging over time.
Leuven, Vlaams BrabantAges Any age - NCT05406232Recruiting
Radiation study to track immune changes in breast cancer
This study gives a short course of radiation to the breast or chest wall and measures how your immune system responds. It may help doctors better understand which immune changes happen after radiation and how this could improve palliative (symptom-relieving) care.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05453682Recruiting
Radiation plus chemotherapy to preserve the bladder
This study tests whether a shorter, more focused radiation plan given at the same time as chemotherapy can control muscle-invasive bladder cancer while keeping the bladder. You may be offered bladder-preserving treatment if your cancer stage and health conditions fit the study rules.
SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT05603078Recruiting
Breast cancer surgery with a tumor-bed boost and standard radiation
This study looks at whether adding extra targeted radiation to the tumor area before breast-conserving surgery, then using modern breast surgery techniques and whole-breast radiation afterward, improves outcomes for early-stage breast cancer. You may be offered a treatment plan designed to better treat the area where the tumor was removed.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Up to 55 years - NCT05628038RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus immunotherapy for recurrent rectal cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether giving targeted radiation and an immunotherapy drug together can control locally recurring rectal cancer in the pelvis. It may help shrink tumors and slow disease growth, especially after certain prior treatments.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05762900RecruitingPhase 2
Shorter breast radiation after surgery for low-risk breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a shorter, focused radiation treatment after breast surgery, either alone or with an extra targeted boost. It’s for people with low-risk breast cancer and no spread to distant organs, aiming to keep results while reducing treatment time and side effects.
BeijingAges 35 years+ - NCT05776147Recruiting
Review of extreme breast radiation schedules in Brazil
This study looks back at medical records to understand outcomes when breast cancer patients get a very short course of radiation after surgery. It may help doctors learn whether this “extreme hypofractionation” schedule is safe and effective for more patients.
Fortaleza, CearáAges 18 years+ - NCT05786742Recruiting
Radiation plan test for early prostate cancer with a boost
This trial tests a more concentrated radiation schedule for early-stage prostate cancer, using an extra high-dose “boost” delivered from inside the body. It may help by treating the prostate more precisely while aiming to keep side effects manageable.
QuébecAges 18–95 - NCT05876130Recruiting
Radiation after surgery for stage III uterine cancer
This trial studies a specific type of radiation treatment given after surgery for people with stage III endometrial (uterine lining) cancer. It’s meant to see how well this “shorter/targeted” radiation approach works to help control the cancer after hysterectomy and staging.
SeoulAges 20–80 - NCT05884632Recruiting
Personalized daily radiation for prostate cancer after surgery
This trial studies a “daily adaptive” way of planning and delivering radiation after prostate surgery to treat prostate cancer that is coming back locally. It may help target the tumor more precisely while limiting radiation to healthy tissue.
Negrar, VeronaAges 18–80 - NCT06080061RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized radiation and chemo for lung cancer
This trial is testing a personalized approach to giving radiation and chemotherapy together for lung cancer. It aims to make treatment more effective by tailoring the radiation schedule to each person.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06080503Recruiting
Comparing shorter vs. standard radiation for early vocal cord cancer
This study tests if a shorter course of radiation (hypofractionated) works as well as the standard longer course for people with early-stage cancer of the vocal cords. The goal is to find a treatment that is more convenient and has similar results.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06110572RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Total body irradiation with immunotherapy for extensive SCLC
This trial adds total body irradiation (a low dose of radiation to the whole body) to standard atezolizumab (immunotherapy) plus chemotherapy for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if the radiation helps the immunotherapy work better.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06141070RecruitingPhase 3
Adding high-dose radiation to standard treatment for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests whether adding a high, focused dose of radiation to the usual first treatment (chemo and/or immunotherapy) can help people with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to a limited number of spots (up to 5). The goal is to see if this approach improves how well the treatment works.
GothenburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06185205RecruitingPhase 2
Accelerated high-dose radiation for early breast cancer
This trial tests a very short, high-dose radiation treatment given directly to the breast after lumpectomy. It aims to make radiation more convenient by finishing in just a few days instead of weeks, possibly with fewer side effects.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 45–79 - NCT06220435Recruiting
Radiation therapy for very high-risk localized prostate cancer
This trial tests radiation therapy for men with very high-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread. It aims to see if targeting the tumor with radiation can help control the cancer in this highest risk group.
LundAges 18 years+ - NCT06270888RecruitingPhase 1
Shorter radiation treatment for multiple myeloma
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation therapy for up to 5 bone lesions that have come back or not responded to treatment. It aims to see if this approach is safe and helps control the disease.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05856773RecruitingPhase 3
Standard vs shorter radiation to lymph nodes for breast cancer
This trial compares two ways of giving radiation to the breast/chest wall and nearby lymph nodes after breast surgery: a standard schedule versus a shorter “hypofractionated” schedule. It uses proton therapy and may help reduce treatment time while still controlling the cancer.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 19 years+ - NCT06335693Recruiting
Short-course radiation after prostate surgery
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation therapy (hypofractionated radiotherapy) for men who have already had their prostate removed and still have signs of cancer (like rising PSA). The goal is to see if this can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06344130RecruitingPhase 1
Shorter radiation for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a new, shorter course of radiation therapy (called hypofractionation) for people with glioblastoma that has come back. It is for patients who have already had radiation and are doing well enough to consider another round.
