This study is testing if a special type of PET scan (FDOPA-PET) can help doctors aim a second round of radiation therapy more precisely at recurrent glioblastoma, a very aggressive brain cancer. The goal is to see if delivering a higher, more focused dose to the exact tumor area …

This study is testing whether a coordinated care program helps older adults complete their planned digestive cancer chemotherapy. It will enroll 144 participants aged 75 and older who are starting treatment. The goal is to see if early support from a team of specialists helps pat…

This study is testing a combination of three drugs (carboplatin, paclitaxel, and cetuximab) for adults with head and neck cancer that has returned or spread after their first treatment with pembrolizumab immunotherapy. The main goal is to see how well this three-drug combo shrink…

This study is testing a more precise way to deliver radiation to glioblastoma, a fast-growing brain cancer. It focuses on frail patients or those who could not have full surgery. Doctors use a special PET scan to find the most aggressive parts of the tumor and aim a higher radiat…

This study is testing a new type of MRI scan, called CEST, to see if it can create better maps of brain tumors. It will be added to standard PET/MRI exams for 800 patients with glioma or brain metastases. The goal is to see if measuring the acidity (pH) inside tumor tissue can he…

This study is testing whether a newer type of scan (PET/MRI) is better than the current standard scan (PET/CT) at finding if cervical cancer has spread to lymph nodes. Researchers will compare both scans in 50 patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. The goal is to see if …

This study is testing if a weekly cycling exercise program can help breast cancer patients better maintain their physical fitness and strength during chemotherapy. Researchers will compare a group doing 15 weeks of supervised cycling to a group receiving standard care. The goal i…

This study explores whether horse-assisted therapy can help children and teenagers feel less anxious and improve their quality of life while they receive radiotherapy for cancer. Researchers will measure changes in anxiety and well-being in about 22 young patients aged 8 to 18. T…

This study aims to understand why breast cancer patients often struggle with exercise after chemotherapy. Researchers will compare 24 women who recently finished chemo with 24 healthy women, measuring how their hearts and nerves respond to gentle leg movements and blood pressure …

This large international research project aims to understand why some people with gallstones develop gallbladder cancer. By studying 15,000 people in Europe and Latin America, researchers will collect health information and samples to identify risk factors and potential early war…

This study aims to understand why some breast cancer patients develop heart damage from a common chemotherapy drug called anthracycline. Researchers will test if a specific protein in the blood (SGLT2) can serve as an early warning sign for this heart risk. The goal is to find a …
