Personalized lower-dose radiation for HPV-related throat cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether giving a less intense (de-escalated) radiation plan can work for certain people with HPV-related oropharyngeal throat cancer. It uses HPV blood testing and scans to help guide treatment, aiming to keep cancer control while reducing treatment side effects.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05616650RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted radiation for one prostate tumor spot
This Phase 2 study tests a focused radiation approach using stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for people with one prostate tumor visible on imaging. It aims to treat a single tumor area while limiting treatment to the rest of the prostate.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05679583RecruitingPhase 2
Pre-surgery focused radiation for resectable pancreatic cancer
This trial studies giving highly targeted radiation before surgery for patients with operable pancreatic cancer. The goal is to shrink or control the cancer before an operation while keeping side effects manageable.
SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT05946213RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter radiation treatment for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests whether a shorter course of radiation works as well as the usual longer course for people with high-risk prostate cancer. The goal is to keep cancer control while possibly reducing treatment time and inconvenience.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06202118Recruiting
Alpha radiation therapy for breast cancer in older or frail patients
This trial tests a new type of radiation therapy (DaRT) that uses tiny, implantable seeds to deliver targeted alpha radiation to breast tumors. It is designed for older patients (65+) or those who are too frail for surgery, offering a less invasive option for controlling the cancer.
JerusalemAges 65–120 - NCT06276465RecruitingPhase 3
Darolutamide with or without radiation for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests whether adding radiation therapy to the drug darolutamide helps men with a specific type of advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy and has spread to a few spots seen on special scans. The study aims to find the best way to control the cancer while keeping side effects manageable.
LorientAges 18 years+ - NCT06392295RecruitingPhase 2
PSMA-Guided Radiation for Limited Prostate Cancer Return
This trial tests whether targeted radiation to the lymph nodes in the belly can help men whose prostate cancer has returned in just a few spots after prior radiation. You must have had a PSMA PET/CT scan showing the cancer is limited to pelvic or belly lymph nodes.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06500455RecruitingPhase 3
Standard vs longer radiation for brain metastases
This trial compares the usual short course of radiation therapy (one session) to a longer course (up to 5 sessions) for people with cancer that has spread to the brain. The goal is to see if the longer course works better and causes fewer side effects.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06500481RecruitingPhase 3
Proton vs standard radiation for cancer spread to brain/spine lining
This trial compares a newer type of radiation (proton therapy) to standard radiation for people whose breast or lung cancer has spread to the lining of the brain and spinal cord. It aims to see if proton therapy can better control the disease while causing fewer side effects.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06532279RecruitingPhase 2
Testing BMX-001 with chemoradiation for head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding BMX-001 (a drug that may protect healthy tissues) to standard chemoradiation can reduce side effects and improve outcomes for people with head and neck cancer. It's a randomized study, so you would have a 50/50 chance of getting BMX-001 or a placebo.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06660407RecruitingPhase 2
Grid radiation for advanced lung cancer after immunotherapy
This trial tests a special type of radiation called grid therapy for people with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer that has grown after immunotherapy or chemoimmunotherapy. It aims to see if this approach can help control tumors that are larger than 3 centimeters outside the brain.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06914999RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Comparing a new scan to standard scan during head and neck cancer radiation
This trial is testing whether a newer type of PET/CT scan (F-18 NaF) can better detect blood vessel problems caused by radiation therapy than the standard scan (F-18 FDG) in people with head and neck cancer. If successful, it could lead to better ways to prevent and manage these complications.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07097142RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter radiation for bladder cancer with chemo
This trial tests if a shorter course of radiation therapy works as well as the usual longer course for people with bladder cancer who are also receiving standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if shorter treatment can reduce side effects while still being effective.
