Recruiting studies
- NCT06966388RecruitingPhase 1
Azelaic acid cream for breast cancer patients during radiation
This study tests whether using a topical azelaic acid cream twice daily during radiation therapy is feasible for breast cancer patients. The cream may help reduce skin side effects from radiation, and the study focuses on people with certain skin types that tan easily or have more pigment.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04340024Recruiting
Testing blood markers linked to how well radiation works
This study looks for “biomarkers,” or measurable signs (often from blood or samples), that may show which cancers respond better to radiation therapy. It may help doctors choose radiation treatment more precisely, especially for people who had significant side effects before.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - 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+ - NCT06953245Recruiting
Study of skin reactions from radiation in breast cancer patients
This study asks breast cancer patients about their skin reactions during radiation therapy. By sharing your experience, you can help doctors better understand and manage these side effects.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06961955RecruitingPhase 2
Shorter versus longer whole breast radiation for early-stage breast cancer
This trial compares a 5-day course of whole breast radiation plus a boost to the standard 9-day course for people with early-stage breast cancer who have certain risk factors, such as high-grade tumors or younger age. The goal is to see if the shorter treatment is just as safe and effective.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT06311968RecruitingPhase 2
Proton radiation after surgery for thymus tumors
This trial tests a type of precise radiation called proton therapy after surgery for thymus tumors. It may help reduce the chance of the tumor coming back while limiting side effects to nearby organs.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05253495RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted immunotherapy added to chemotherapy and radiation for lymphoma
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding targeted immunotherapy to standard chemotherapy and radiation can improve outcomes in children with certain types of lymphoma. It may help the immune system work better against cancer.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 3–39 - NCT06949254Recruiting
Study of radiation and hormone therapy for high-risk prostate cancer
This study looks at combining stereotactic body radiation therapy (a precise type of radiation) with hormone therapy for men with high-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread. The goal is to see how well this treatment works with fewer side effects.
Bergamo, BergamoAges 18 years+ - NCT06950073Recruiting
Second radiation treatment for lung cancer in the chest
This study tests whether giving a second course of radiation to the chest (called retreatment) can control lung cancer that has come back or a new cancer that started there. People who have already had radiation to their chest and are healthy enough for more may be eligible.
Aarhus, JutlandAges Any age - NCT06940180RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy and chemotherapy before surgery for sinus cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (toripalimab) plus chemotherapy before surgery for sinus cancer that has not spread. The goal is to see if this treatment shrinks the tumor so surgery can be more effective.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06936748RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus immunotherapy for large relapsed solid tumors
This trial tests a new combination of radiation therapy and two immunotherapy drugs (Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab) for people whose solid tumors have returned or spread and are too large for standard surgery. The goal is to shrink the tumor and control the cancer.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–75 - NCT06927635RecruitingPhase 2
SBRT vs standard care for prostate cancer that has spread to a few spots
This trial tests whether targeted radiation (SBRT) to a few sites of cancer spread can help men whose prostate cancer has stopped responding to hormone therapy but has not spread to many places. You may benefit if you have a limited number of growing spots outside the brain or spine.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–100 - NCT06925295RecruitingPhase 2
Xenon MRI to guide radiation for lung cancer
This trial tests whether a special MRI that uses xenon gas can help doctors better plan radiation therapy for lung cancer. You may join if you are scheduled for stereotactic body radiation therapy for your lung cancer.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–80 - NCT06914440RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation and immunotherapy before surgery for HR+/HER2- breast cancer
This trial is testing a new treatment approach for patients with a certain type of breast cancer (HR+/HER2-). It combines radiation therapy with chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug before the patient's main surgery, to see if it can shrink or eliminate the tumor more effectively.
Xi'an, Shannxi ProvinceAges 18–75 - NCT06036706Recruiting
Radiation types and thinking skills for skull base meningioma
This study compares different radiation methods for treating a slow-growing, non-cancerous brain tumor at the base of the skull. It aims to see which approach best protects memory and thinking abilities.
CaenAges 20–65 - NCT04004312Recruiting
Short-course radiation slices for localized prostate cancer
This trial tests a radiation approach that delivers treatment in a small number of larger “fractions” (short-course SBRT) for prostate cancer. It may help by targeting the prostate while shortening the overall number of visits.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT04249154RecruitingPhase 2
After prostate surgery, test radiation plus hormone shots
This trial studies whether giving a shorter-course radiation plan after prostate surgery, along with hormone shots (LHRH), can improve outcomes for people with higher-risk prostate cancer. You may be eligible if your PSA (a blood marker) is either still low but high-risk by pathology, or it has started to rise again after surgery.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06910306Recruiting
DaRT alpha radiation for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a device called DaRT that delivers alpha radiation directly to a recurrent glioblastoma tumor. It may help patients who cannot have surgery and have a single, small tumor regrowth.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18–85 - NCT06902311RecruitingPhase 2
Shorter radiation after lumpectomy for early breast cancer
This trial tests a shorter, more intense course of daily radiation therapy (called ultra hypo-fractionation) given after lumpectomy for early-stage breast cancer. The goal is to reduce the number of treatment visits while keeping the same high level of effectiveness and safety.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 50 years+ - NCT06902623Recruiting
Less intense radiation for early HPV throat cancer
This study tries to see if less intense radiation can still work well for certain throat cancers linked to HPV. It is looking for people with early stage HPV-positive oropharynx cancer who may benefit from a lighter treatment plan.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06905132RecruitingPhase 2
Short radiation before surgery for soft tissue sarcoma
This study tests a 5-day course of radiation before surgery instead of the usual 5 weeks. It may help people who face challenges like travel or tumor growth that make the longer schedule difficult.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06905561Recruiting
Diclofenac cream to prevent skin irritation from radiation
This trial tests if a diclofenac cream can help prevent skin redness, peeling, or pain caused by radiation therapy. It is for people with certain head and neck cancers or breast cancer who are starting radiation treatment.
Haikou, HainanAges 18–75 - NCT05775146RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation to liver metastases after colon cancer treatment
This trial studies giving targeted high-dose radiation (SBRT) to liver metastases from colorectal cancer after initial treatment, with the goal of improving long-term control or cure. It may help people who have a limited number of liver spots that doctors think can be treated safely and effectively.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT06899152Recruiting
New tests to track liver health during radiation for liver cancer
This study tests new blood tests and MRI scans to see how well your liver works during radiation therapy for liver cancer. It may help doctors better plan treatment and monitor your liver health.
