This study tested whether a shorter course of radiation (hypofractionated) given with chemotherapy works as well as the standard longer radiation course for people with limited-stage small cell lung cancer. 860 adults aged 18-70 with early-stage disease took part. The main goal w…

This study tested a new treatment for advanced liver cancer that has spread into the major blood vessels of the liver. Thirty patients received a special type of radiation along with an immunotherapy drug called tislelizumab. The goal was to see if this combination could help pat…

This study looked at 180 people with rectal cancer that had spread to lymph nodes in the pelvis. One group received a three-drug chemotherapy regimen (FOLFOXIRI) followed by surgery to remove the affected lymph nodes. The other group got standard chemoradiotherapy before surgery.…

This phase 2 trial tested whether taking iohexol by mouth can treat chylous ascites, a leak of lymphatic fluid that can happen after abdominal or pelvic cancer surgery. The study enrolled 42 patients who developed this condition after surgery. The goal was to see if oral iohexol …

This study tested a precise type of radiation called fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (FSRT) in 33 adults with 1 to 4 small brain metastases (each 2 cm or smaller). The goal was to see if this approach could control the tumors while avoiding serious side effects like radiat…

This early study tested a new cell therapy called QH104 in just 3 patients whose solid tumors had spread to the lining of the brain (meningeal metastases) and had a specific marker called B7H3. The treatment uses specially engineered immune cells (CAR-γδ T cells) injected directl…

This study compared two radiation methods for people with early-stage breast cancer: a shorter, more focused radiation (accelerated partial breast irradiation) versus standard whole breast radiation. The goal was to see which causes fewer side effects like skin problems, breast s…

This study looked at 720 women with early-stage breast cancer who had a lumpectomy. They were split into two groups: one got standard daily radiation for several weeks, the other got a shorter course of higher-dose radiation. The goal was to see if the shorter treatment works jus…

This study tested whether giving a targeted drug called Apatinib along with radiation therapy before surgery is safe and effective for people with soft tissue sarcoma in the arms, legs, or trunk. 30 adults took part. The main goal was to see how many had major wound problems with…

This phase 2 trial tested whether adding the drug fluzoparib to standard preoperative radiation therapy improves outcomes for people with soft tissue sarcoma in the arms, legs, or trunk. Fifty-two adults took part, receiving either radiation alone or radiation plus fluzoparib bef…

This study looked at 143 people in China who had a second surgery after rectal cancer treatment because of a leak or tumor return. Researchers wanted to find out what factors help the surgery succeed and whether patients can regain the ability to poop normally. The goal is to bet…

This study looked at 729 breast cancer patients who had surgery followed by radiation. Researchers checked their thyroid function before and after treatment to see how many developed an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism). The goal was to find out which patients are at higher ri…

This study looked at 143 people in China who had repeat surgery after their first colorectal cancer operation failed or the cancer came back. The goal was to find out what helps the second surgery succeed and whether patients can regain normal bowel function. Researchers analyzed…

This completed study looked at 500 non-small cell lung cancer patients who had surgery. Researchers collected blood samples before and after surgery to detect circulating tumor cells (CTCs). They then analyzed these cells to see if their presence could predict cancer recurrence o…
