Image-guided radiation for brain tumors that protects thinking
This trial tests a special type of radiation therapy for brain tumors that aims to protect your memory and thinking skills. It may be an option if you have certain brain tumors or a small number of brain metastases.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04218617RecruitingPhase 2
One vs two radiation treatments for spine metastases
This trial tests whether giving radiation to a spine metastasis in one dose works as well as giving it in two smaller doses. It aims to control tumors while keeping side effects and risk to the spinal cord low.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT03750227RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation before or after brain tumor surgery
This study compares giving focused, high-precision radiation before or after surgery for brain metastases. It aims to see which timing works best to control tumors and improve outcomes.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03550391RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery-like brain radiation vs avoiding the memory center
This trial compares two ways of giving radiation to the brain for people with 5 or more brain metastases: focused stereotactic radiosurgery, or a whole-brain approach that tries to spare the memory area (with memantine). It aims to see which method better protects thinking and memory while still treating the tumors.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03184038Recruiting
Testing brain function in people with brain metastases after radiosurgery
This study looks at how well your thinking and memory work after treatment with radiosurgery for brain metastases. It may help researchers understand which patients benefit best and how to monitor side effects on brain function.
Sewell, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT02747303RecruitingPhase 2
Focused radiation for 1 to 5 brain metastases without surgery
This Phase 2 study tests a precise, no-head-frame radiation technique to treat brain metastases. It may help by aiming radiation tightly at the tumors while limiting exposure to nearby healthy brain.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT02390518RecruitingPhase 1
Tested different radiation doses for brain metastases
This Phase 1 study tests how to safely give focused radiation (SRS) at different doses to people with brain metastases. It aims to find a dose level that works well while limiting side effects.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT01734122Recruiting
Focused radiation for essential or Parkinson tremor
This trial tests whether precisely targeted radiation to the brain can reduce tremors in people whose symptoms are not controlled enough by medication. It may help those who prefer radiation over deep brain surgery options.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT01891318RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study radiosurgery plus surgery for brain metastases
This trial tests giving focused radiation (radiosurgery) before surgery for certain resectable brain metastases. It may help shrink or control tumors in the brain before they are surgically removed.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06472570Recruiting
Targeted radiation for head and neck tumors
This trial tests a precise type of radiation called stereotactic radiosurgery for people with head or neck tumors. It may be an option for those who need radiation or chemoradiation as their main treatment or after surgery.
Gliwice, GliwicwAges 18–80 - NCT07767981Recruiting
Gut bacteria and side effects of precise radiation therapy
This study looks at how the bacteria in your gut might affect side effects from a precise type of radiation therapy called stereotactic radiosurgery. By collecting samples, researchers hope to find ways to reduce side effects in the future.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT01885299Recruiting
Long-term registry for stereotactic radiation treatments
This study collects long-term information from people who receive stereotactic radiosurgery or stereotactic body radiotherapy for tumors or other conditions. It helps researchers understand how these precise radiation treatments work over time.
Colorado Springs, ColoradoAges Any age - NCT03745534Recruiting
Cochlear implant after Gamma Knife for vestibular schwannoma
This pilot study looks at how well cochlear implants work for hearing restoration in people who previously received Gamma Knife treatment for a tumor called vestibular schwannoma. It may help doctors understand what hearing results to expect after surgery.
Vienna, State of ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT07605546Recruiting
Radiation Therapy for Cancer Pain Relief
This trial tests whether a focused radiation treatment called SRS (stereotactic radiosurgery) can help relieve severe cancer pain that hasn't improved with strong pain medications. You would receive a one-time radiation procedure aimed at pain-causing areas in your brain.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07578116RecruitingPhase 3
Adding surgery and radiation for her2-positive breast cancer with a few spread spots
This trial tests whether adding surgery and radiation to the usual HER2-targeted treatment helps people with breast cancer that has spread to a few spots. You must have HER2-positive cancer that is newly spread, and you must be able to receive radiation to all tumor sites.
Jonesboro, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06766643RecruitingPhase 2
Stereotactic radiosurgery vs. radiofrequency ablation for liver cancer
This study compares two nonsurgical procedures for liver cancer: stereotactic radiosurgery (focused radiation) and radiofrequency ablation (heat therapy). It is for people whose tumor is in a tricky spot near major blood vessels or other structures, making surgery difficult, and who have not received prior treatment.
TianjinAges 18–75 - NCT07415668Recruiting
Brain mapping for radiosurgery planning
This trial uses a safe brain stimulation technique to map the motor area before focused radiation. It helps protect healthy brain tissue while treating tumors that have spread to the brain.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT03548428RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted radiation for a small number of sarcoma metastases
This Phase 2 trial tests a highly focused radiation treatment to shrink sarcoma that has spread to a limited number of spots in the body. It may help control disease while limiting radiation to healthier tissue.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT05677243Recruiting
Observational study of radiosurgery for trigeminal neuralgia pain
This study follows people with trigeminal neuralgia to see how radiosurgery treatment affects their facial pain. It may help doctors better understand who benefits when medicines do not control the pain enough.
MonacoAges 18 years+ - NCT07227610RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation for larger brain tumors that have spread
This study tests a type of radiation treatment for people with one or more brain tumors that are larger than usual (2 to 5 centimeters). It aims to see if this approach is safe and effective, and may be an option if you are not having immediate surgery.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07162246RecruitingPhase 2
Radiosurgery for large brain tumors and metastases
This trial tests a special high-dose radiation treatment for people who have up to two large brain tumors (metastases) and possibly other smaller ones. The treatment aims to control the tumors while limiting radiation to healthy brain tissue.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06992973Recruiting
Radiation before surgery for large brain metastases
This trial tests a new approach for people with a single large brain tumor that has spread from another cancer. You would receive a short, focused dose of radiation (stereotactic radiosurgery) in small, separate treatments, followed by surgery to remove the tumor. The goal is to see if this combination works better than the usual treatment.
