Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT05733910Recruiting
Carbon ion radiation for adenoid cystic cancer in the head and neck
This trial tests a type of high-precision radiation (carbon ions) given to shrink head and neck adenoid cystic carcinoma that cannot be fully removed with surgery. It may help control the tumor while limiting damage to nearby normal tissues.
Pavia, PaviaAges 18 years+ - NCT05752136RecruitingPhase 3
Pre-surgery radiation plus immunotherapy and chemo for rectal cancer
This trial tests whether a short course of radiation before surgery, combined with the immunotherapy drug envafolimab and the chemo regimen CAPEOX, works better for shrinking locally advanced rectal cancer. It is aimed at people whose tumor is not “MMR-deficient” (it is pMMR/MSS), and it asks participants to be able to return for repeated checkups and treatments.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT05758688RecruitingPhase 2
Proton radiation after surgery for uterine or cervical cancer
This trial studies whether proton beam radiation after surgery can better treat certain uterine (endometrial) or cervix (cervical) cancers. It may help by targeting the pelvic area while limiting radiation to nearby organs.
Voorhees Township, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05761054Recruiting
Pre-surgery radiation to shrink soft-tissue sarcoma
This trial studies giving radiation before surgery to help control a soft-tissue sarcoma while keeping surgery as less extensive as possible. It may help shrink the tumor and improve what the surgeon can remove.
Florence, FiAges 18 years+ - NCT05762900RecruitingPhase 2
Shorter breast radiation after surgery for low-risk breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a shorter, focused radiation treatment after breast surgery, either alone or with an extra targeted boost. It’s for people with low-risk breast cancer and no spread to distant organs, aiming to keep results while reducing treatment time and side effects.
BeijingAges 35 years+ - NCT05765175Recruiting
Radioablation versus repeat ablation for hard-to-treat VT
This trial compares a heart procedure using targeted radiation (called radioablation) to a repeat catheter ablation for people with high-risk, hard-to-control ventricular tachycardia (VT). It aims to find which approach is safer and works better after standard ablation and amiodarone have not stopped the abnormal rhythm.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT05775939Recruiting
PET/CT scan study to track heart damage from cancer radiation
This study uses a special scan (PET/CT) to look for early heart (cardiac) injury caused by radiation treatment for lung or esophageal cancer. If you may be at higher heart risk from your planned radiation dose, the scan may help researchers better measure that damage over time.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05781555Recruiting
DaRT radiation device study for treating tumors
This study tests a radiation-emitting device (called DaRT) for treating cancer tumors. It may help shrink or control malignant tumors and researchers will check safety and response to the treatment.
