This study tests a personalized approach to breast radiotherapy, adjusting treatment based on each patient's risk of cancer returning and their chance of side effects. It involves 854 women with invasive breast cancer who have had surgery and need radiation. The goal is to reduce…

This study looks at whether using MRI scans early after chemotherapy can help personalize treatment for people with advanced rectal cancer. About 1,075 participants will be grouped as 'good' or 'poor' responders based on tumor shrinkage. Good responders will be randomly assigned …

This study tests whether giving two different chemotherapy regimens one after the other (first Gembrax, then Folfirinox) helps people with metastatic pancreatic cancer live longer without their disease getting worse, compared to using Folfirinox alone. About 162 adults aged 18 to…

This study looks at whether giving two more doses of Lutathera (a targeted radiation therapy) can help control intestinal neuroendocrine tumors that have started growing again after initial treatment. About 146 adults whose tumors were stable for at least 12 months after their fi…

This study tests a two-step chemotherapy plan (Gemcitabine/Nab-paclitaxel followed by FOLFIRINOX) and then precise MRI-guided radiation for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to stop the cancer from growing for at least 4…

This study tests a remote cognitive rehabilitation program for people with slow-growing brain tumors (grade 2 or 3 glioma). Participants will complete online exercises designed to improve memory, attention, and thinking skills. The goal is to see if this program can reduce cognit…

This study explores whether adding music therapy to standard smoking cessation support helps cancer patients quit or reduce smoking. Participants work with a music therapist to create a personalized soundtrack to manage withdrawal symptoms and cravings. The study involves 26 adul…

This study aims to describe sexual quality of life in women with breast cancer who receive a non-hormonal light therapy (photobiomodulation) for menopausal symptoms like vaginal dryness and pain during sex. About 25 women will complete a questionnaire about their sexual health be…

This study tests a new type of radiation therapy (adaptive radiotherapy) for breast cancer patients who are at high risk of developing fibrosis (scarring) from standard radiation. The goal is to see if this approach can reduce moderate to severe side effects. The study will inclu…

This study tests a simple breathing technique called cardiac coherence to help reduce anxiety in people awaiting surgery for peritoneal cancer. About 60 participants will practice guided breathing sessions before their operation. The goal is to see if this easy, drug-free method …

This study compares two ways of providing sexual health support to breast cancer patients: proactive personalized care versus support only when requested. The goal is to see which approach better improves sexual quality of life. The trial will enroll 264 adults who have completed…

This study tests whether a negative pressure wound therapy (a vacuum dressing) can reduce complications like infection, wound reopening, and slow healing after complex breast cancer surgery with immediate reconstruction. About 254 women at high risk for scarring problems (e.g., o…

This study tests if shining a special laser light on painful areas can reduce nerve pain caused by chemotherapy. About 70 cancer survivors with lasting nerve pain will receive either real laser treatment or a placebo (fake) treatment. The goal is to see if the laser helps more th…

This study follows 190 people with inoperable lung cancer or limited lung metastases who receive a single, high-dose radiation treatment. Researchers track quality of life using detailed questionnaires before treatment and at several points over a year. The goal is to understand …

This study looks at whether a special blood test (NovaGray RILA Breast®) can predict serious side effects from radiotherapy in women who have had a mastectomy with immediate breast implant reconstruction. Researchers will follow 250 patients to see if the test can identify who is…

This study looks at what motivates people aged 70 and older with cancer to be physically active and eat well. Researchers will group participants based on their motivation patterns, then use that information to design a personalized program to help them stay active and improve th…

This study looks at whether women with early-stage breast cancer can stick to a special diet (ketogenic or low-protein) for about 9 days before their surgery. The goal is not to treat the cancer directly, but to see if the diet is feasible and to study how it affects cancer cells…

This study is creating a large database of clinical information and blood samples from 350 adults receiving metabolic radiotherapy for thyroid cancer, prostate cancer, or neuroendocrine tumors. The goal is to provide researchers with valuable data to better understand these treat…

This study looks at whether keeping the left colic artery intact during surgery for colorectal or ovarian cancer helps maintain better blood flow to the colon. About 50 adults scheduled for left-sided colon, rectal, or ovarian cancer surgery will participate. Researchers will mea…
