This trial tests lutetium Lu 177 dotatate, a targeted radiation treatment, for advanced lung neuroendocrine (carcinoid) tumors that have a specific marker called somatostatin receptors. It may help shrink tumors by delivering radiation directly to cancer cells that “light up” on a special scan.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04657042Recruiting
4D MRI scans to guide lung or liver cancer radiation
This trial tests whether special “4D” MRI scans can improve precision radiation planning for people with lung or liver cancer. You may get MRI scan data to better account for tumor movement, alongside your usual radiation treatment.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18–82 - NCT04645628Recruiting
Improving MRI scan order for better comfort and image quality
This study looks at the best order to take MRI images so scans are more comfortable and produce better-quality pictures. You may be eligible if you are having an MRI of many body areas as part of your routine care.
NancyAges 18 years+ - NCT04589624RecruitingPhase 1
MRI scan to monitor response in head and neck cancers
This Phase 1 study tests an investigational MRI scan (hpMRI) to help doctors see how thyroid cancer and other head-and-neck cancers respond to treatment like radiation or other medicines. If you’re eligible, the scan may help track treatment effects more closely, though it’s still being studied for this purpose.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04521764RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine for Metastatic Breast Cancer
This trial tests a vaccine (MV-s-NAP) that is injected directly into a tumor to stimulate your immune system against breast cancer. It is for people with metastatic breast cancer that has spread despite prior treatments.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04423211RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery-recovered prostate cancer treated with PET-guided radiation
This trial tests whether adding targeted radiation guided by a PET scan (along with hormone therapy) can improve outcomes for prostate cancer that has come back after surgery. The PET scan helps doctors look for spots outside the usual radiation area so treatment can be tailored.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT04441554Recruiting
