Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04512846Recruiting
Radiation for large liver cancer, with or without chemo
This trial compares two treatment approaches for large hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a type of liver cancer: stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) alone versus SBRT plus TACE, a catheter-based chemo treatment. It may help decide which approach works better for controlling the tumor when surgery isn’t a good option.
BeijingAges 30–80 - NCT03049072Recruiting
Registry for people treated with ion beam therapy at MedAustron
This trial is a patient registry that collects information from people treated with ion beam therapy at MedAustron. It helps researchers understand treatment patterns and outcomes and may improve care for future patients.
Wiener Neustadt, Lower AustriaAges Any age - NCT06767007RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus immunotherapy for recurrent rectal cancer
This trial studies a combination of SBRT (a precise kind of radiation) and an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 antibody) for people whose rectal cancer has come back in the pelvis and cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink the tumor or stop it from growing.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT00992303Recruiting
Collecting tissue samples during radiation for people with cancer
This study collects tissue samples from people with cancer while they are getting radiation therapy. It also includes healthy participants, to help researchers compare samples and better understand cancer and treatment.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06894797Recruiting
Chemo and radiation before and after surgery for rectal cancer
This study tests a sequence of chemotherapy and radiation before and after surgery for rectal cancer. It compares giving more chemo between the end of radiation and surgery (consolidation) versus giving some chemo before radiation starts (induction). The goal is to see which order works better.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06409910RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing shorter radiation treatments for prostate cancer
This study tests two slightly different short-course radiation schedules for men who have had their prostate removed and are now getting follow-up radiation. The goal is to see if one is more effective or has fewer side effects.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT03500133RecruitingPhase 4
Low-dose chemotherapy and less radiation for childhood Hodgkin lymphoma
This trial studies a treatment plan for children with classical Hodgkin lymphoma that uses lower total doses of chemotherapy and reduced radiation. The goal is to help control the lymphoma while lowering long-term side effects.
Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires F.D.Ages 2–18 - NCT06434480Recruiting
SBRT for liver cancer with limited growth on first immunotherapy
This trial tests whether a targeted radiation therapy (SBRT) can help people with liver cancer whose disease has only a few new spots growing while on first-line immunotherapy. It aims to see if zapping those spots can control the cancer and delay the need for stronger treatments.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT06250972RecruitingPhase 3
Radiotherapy for advanced pancreatic cancer with normal CA19-9 after chemo
This trial tests whether giving radiotherapy to the pancreas can help people with advanced pancreatic cancer whose CA19-9 level has dropped to normal after chemotherapy. It's for patients whose cancer is still locally advanced (hasn't spread to distant organs).
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07631572Recruiting
Cesium implant radiation for recurrent cervical or uterine cancer
This study tests a type of internal radiation (cesium implant) to treat cancer that has come back in the vagina after previous pelvic radiation. The goal is to save the organ while treating the cancer.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT05384496RecruitingPhase 2
Axitinib and nivolumab for advanced mucosal melanoma
This trial studies how well two medicines—axitinib and nivolumab—work for people with advanced melanoma that starts in moist “mucosal” areas (like the mouth, nose, throat, or bowel). It may help shrink tumors and control the disease by boosting the immune system and targeting tumor growth.
Harrison, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06177106Recruiting
Study of skin markers in sun-damaged and protected skin
This trial looks at certain markers in the skin of people with sun damage. It tests how your skin reacts to a small amount of simulated sunlight, and may help understand skin cancer risk.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 40 years+ - NCT04175431RecruitingPhase 2
PSMA or FACBC PET scan guided treatment for prostate cancer recurrence
This Phase 2 study tests using a special PET/CT scan (PSMA or FACBC) to guide treatment for prostate cancer that has come back after surgery and radiation. The goal is to see whether this scan-based approach can better target cancer in the prostate area (and help plan the right treatment).
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07545720RecruitingPhase 2
Pinoxin to prevent radiation skin damage
This study tests whether a protective agent called Pinoxin can prevent or reduce skin damage from radiation therapy. If you're getting radiation treatment for cancer, this trial may help protect your skin during therapy.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07594691Recruiting
Breath-Hold Techniques to Improve Radiation Therapy Accuracy
This trial tests whether holding your breath during imaging scans can help doctors aim radiation therapy more precisely at upper abdominal cancers while protecting nearby healthy organs. The goal is to reduce side effects by improving treatment accuracy.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05915442RecruitingPhase 2
Adenosine blocker plus immunotherapy for limited prostate spread
This Phase 2 study tests a medicine that affects “adenosine” signaling along with an immune checkpoint inhibitor (immunotherapy) in men with hormone-sensitive prostate cancer that has spread in only a small, limited way. It aims to stop or slow that limited spread by helping the immune system work better.
New York, New YorkAges 18–99 - NCT06692556RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation vs monitoring for high-risk skin cancer
This trial compares two strategies after surgery for a type of skin cancer (cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma) that has a high chance of coming back. One strategy gives radiation therapy to the area, while the other just watches and checks for any signs of recurrence. The goal is to see if radiation can prevent the cancer from returning.
Le Puy-en-Velay, Auvergne-Rhône-AlpesAges 18 years+ - NCT06362395RecruitingPhase 3
Very high single-dose radiation for liver tumors using MRI guidance
This trial tests a very high, single dose of radiation guided by MRI to destroy liver tumors that have spread from certain cancers. It may be a good option if you have 1 to 3 liver tumors that are away from sensitive organs and your liver is working well.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06959082RecruitingPhase 2
Testing an experimental drug with chemoradiation for head and neck cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug called VS-101 combined with standard radiation and chemotherapy for people with advanced head and neck cancer that hasn't been surgically removed. The goal is to see if adding this drug helps the treatment work better while keeping side effects manageable.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT07559877RecruitingPhase 3
Chlorhexidine spray to prevent radiation skin damage in throat cancer
This study tests whether a chlorhexidine spray (an antiseptic liquid) can prevent or reduce skin damage caused by radiation therapy in people being treated for nasopharyngeal cancer (cancer in the back of the nose/throat). Radiation dermatitis—painful redness and irritation of the skin—is a common side effect, and this spray may help protect your skin during treatment.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–75 - NCT05833867RecruitingPhase 1
Bladder cancer trial combining radiation and Sacituzumab
This Phase 1 study tests whether a new bladder-cancer treatment plan—radiation given at the same time as sacituzumab govitecan—can help people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer without starting with traditional chemo/radiation. Because it’s early-stage, the main goal is safety and learning the best way to use this combination to preserve the bladder.
