It aims to deliver high doses of radiation to the center of the tumor while sparing surrounding healthy tissue, potentially controlling the tumor and improving quality of life.
Reggio Emilia, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT06998342RecruitingPhase 2
Mohs surgery plus short radiation for head and neck skin cancer
This trial studies a combination of Mohs surgery and a short course of radiation therapy for people with squamous cell skin cancer of the head and neck. The goal is to see if this approach is effective with fewer side effects.
Burlington, VermontAges 18 years+ - NCT06987370Recruiting
Radiation study for bone metastases with soft tissue mass
This trial tests a new way of giving radiation (SFRT and SCART) to bone metastases that have a soft tissue mass. It may be an option if you have limited spread and your organs are working well.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT06984562Recruiting
Adaptive radiation therapy for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new way of giving radiation therapy that adapts to changes in your cancer over time. It is for people with pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery but has not spread to other parts of the body.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06987890Recruiting
Geriatric assessment for older adults with lung cancer getting SBRT
This study looks at how a geriatric assessment can help older adults with early-stage lung cancer who are getting a precise type of radiation therapy called SBRT. The goal is to understand their needs and improve care.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 65 years+ - NCT06974123Enrolling by invitationPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new oral drug for radiation proctitis
This trial tests an oral drug called Teslanbaicin for people who have pelvic cancer and developed radiation proctitis (inflammation of the rectum from radiation therapy). The goal is to see if it is safe and helps heal the inflammation.
Xinxiang, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT06005324RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized treatment for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests a custom treatment plan for people with advanced head and neck cancer that is not caused by HPV. It combines radiation and chemotherapy with a targeted drug called cetuximab, adjusted based on your tumor's characteristics.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06954831RecruitingPhase 2
Short-course radiation for early-stage breast cancer
This trial tests a shorter, more intense radiation schedule for people with stage I-III breast cancer after lumpectomy. It aims to find if giving a higher daily dose over fewer sessions is safe and effective.
Arcadia, CaliforniaAges 40 years+ - NCT06960707RecruitingPhase 3
One vs two weeks of breast radiation after lumpectomy
This trial compares a shorter, one-week course of radiation to the standard two-week course after a lumpectomy for early-stage breast cancer. The goal is to see if one week is just as effective and safe, making treatment more convenient.
New York, New YorkAges Any age - NCT06775678RecruitingPhase 2
Spatial fragmentation plus low-dose radiation for resistant lung cancer
This study tests whether combining a special type of radiation (spatial fragmentation) with low-dose radiation can help people whose lung cancer stopped responding to immunotherapy and chemotherapy. If you are eligible, you may receive a new treatment approach to try to shrink the tumors.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06912074RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing shorter vs. longer radiation after chemo-immunotherapy for esophageal cancer
This trial tests if a shorter course of radiation is as effective as the standard longer course after initial chemotherapy plus immunotherapy in people with advanced esophageal cancer that cannot be surgically removed.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06915038Recruiting
Measuring tumor DNA in blood for HPV-positive throat cancer
This study looks at a blood test that finds DNA from HPV-related throat tumors. It may help doctors decide on surgery and check if the cancer is completely removed.
Carmel, IndianaAges 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+ - NCT06909201Recruiting
