This study is testing whether combining precise radiation therapy with a wearable device that creates electric fields around the tumor can slow the growth of locally advanced pancreatic cancer. All 48 participants will receive five days of targeted radiation while wearing the dev…

This study is testing whether adding the drug ruxolitinib to the standard treatment (radiation plus temozolomide) works better for people newly diagnosed with glioblastoma, a serious type of brain cancer. About 190 adults will be randomly assigned to receive either the standard t…

This study is testing whether the drug cabozantinib can help control the growth of recurrent meningioma, a type of brain tumor, in adults. It will enroll 24 patients whose tumors have returned or progressed after standard treatments like surgery or radiation. The main goal is to …

This study is testing whether combining two drugs, zanubrutinib and pemetrexed, can help control brain lymphomas that have come back or not responded to previous treatments. It will involve about 15 patients to first check safety and then see how well the treatment works to shrin…

This study is testing whether adding a new drug called azeliragon to a precise form of radiation therapy is safe and more effective at controlling brain tumors that have spread from other cancers. It will involve about 46 adult patients with small brain tumors. The main goal is t…

This study is testing whether a new type of PET scan, using a tracer called 18F-Fluciclovine, can help doctors see leftover or returning brain cancer cells more clearly after surgery. It aims to improve how doctors plan follow-up radiation treatment by finding tumor areas that a …

This study is testing whether giving radiation therapy early to patients with cancer that has spread to the spine—but who have few or no symptoms—can prevent serious complications like fractures or spinal cord compression. Researchers want to see if this proactive approach reduce…

This study is testing a different way to deliver radiation to cancer that has spread to the spine. Instead of giving one or two high-dose treatments, doctors are spreading the same total radiation dose over five smaller treatments. The goal is to see if this gentler approach is e…

This study is testing whether a new type of imaging scan, called an 18F-fluciclovine PET/CT, can better show if radiation treatment is working for large brain tumors that have spread from cancer elsewhere in the body. Researchers will enroll 20 adults with these large brain metas…

This study aims to better understand glioblastoma, an aggressive brain cancer, by collecting and preserving tumor tissue during standard surgery. Researchers will take samples from different parts of the same tumor to study how they differ in structure and genetics. The goal is t…

This study aims to see if a phone app can be used in a brain cancer clinic to measure patients' thinking skills, like memory and attention. It will also test if patients can report their quality of life electronically. The study is observational, meaning it watches and measures c…
