This phase 3 trial tests whether treatment for high-risk prostate cancer can be personalized based on a patient's genetic risk score. For those with a low genetic risk, a shorter course of hormone therapy plus radiation may be as effective as the standard 24-month treatment, with…

This study compares two ways of giving the chemotherapy drug cisplatin alongside radiation for people with advanced head and neck cancer. One group gets a high dose every three weeks, the other gets a lower dose weekly. The goal is to see if the weekly schedule causes fewer side …

This study compares two radiation methods—proton beam and photon beam (IMRT)—in 120 people with slow-growing brain tumors (IDH-mutant gliomas). The goal is to see which better preserves memory and thinking over time. Participants are randomly assigned to one type of radiation and…

This phase III trial tests whether proton radiation therapy works better than standard photon (X-ray) radiation for people with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has come back. The study involves 115 participants and compares overall survival and side effects. Pro…

This phase II trial tests whether adding the hormone-blocking drug relugolix to standard radiation therapy can slow cancer growth in men with prostate cancer that has spread to a few other spots in the body (oligometastatic). About 194 participants will receive either radiation a…

This early-phase trial tests whether adding a cancer-killing virus called OBP-301 to standard chemotherapy and radiation is safe for people with advanced esophageal or gastroesophageal cancer who cannot have surgery. The virus is designed to infect and destroy tumor cells. Sixtee…

This study tests whether adding a second chemotherapy drug, lomustine, to the standard treatment (temozolomide plus radiation) helps people with a specific type of glioblastoma live longer. The trial includes 265 adults with newly diagnosed tumors that have a methylated MGMT gene…

This phase III trial tests whether adding the drug apalutamide to standard hormone therapy and radiation helps men with prostate cancer that has spread to nearby lymph nodes after surgery. About 586 participants will receive either the usual treatment or the usual treatment plus …

This phase III trial uses a genetic test (Decipher score) to personalize treatment for men with unfavorable intermediate-risk prostate cancer. For those with a high genetic risk, the study tests adding darolutamide to standard hormone therapy and radiation. For those with low gen…

This study tests whether a blood test for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA can help doctors choose the best chemotherapy after standard radiation for nasopharyngeal cancer. About 685 patients will first receive standard chemoradiation. Then, based on whether EBV DNA is still detectab…

This phase 3 trial is testing whether adding radiation therapy to standard care can prevent bone complications like fractures or spinal cord compression in cancer patients with high-risk bone metastases that aren't causing symptoms yet. About 280 patients with multiple metastatic…

This study looks at whether adding local treatments like radiation or surgery to ongoing chemotherapy can help people with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to a limited number of spots. About 218 participants are randomly assigned to get either maintenance chem…

This phase III trial tests whether giving focused radiation (stereotactic radiosurgery) before surgery is better than after surgery for people with 1 to 4 brain metastases. About 237 participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two sequences. The goal is to see which orde…

This study planned to test a two-part experimental treatment for newly diagnosed glioblastoma, a fast-growing brain cancer. The treatment combined a modified virus (Toca 511) designed to enter tumor cells and an extended-release antifungal drug (Toca FC) that the virus helps turn…

This phase 3 trial tests whether adding the drug carboplatin to standard chemotherapy (doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, and paclitaxel) helps prevent triple-negative breast cancer from coming back. About 782 patients with high-risk or node-positive disease are participating. The st…

This Phase III trial is testing whether women and men with early-stage, low-risk HER2-positive breast cancer can safely skip radiation after breast-conserving surgery if they continue HER2-targeted therapy. About 1,300 participants are randomly assigned to receive either standard…

This study tests whether the hormone therapy letrozole alone works as well as chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin) followed by letrozole for people with stage II-IV low-grade serous ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer. About 450 participants will be randomly assign…

This Phase III trial compares two types of radiation therapy for men with intermediate-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread. One method, SBRT, delivers high-dose radiation in fewer sessions, while the other, IMRT, uses more standard daily doses. The study tracks side effects a…

This phase 2 trial compares two types of higher-dose radiation (IMRT or proton beam) plus the chemotherapy drug temozolomide against standard radiation plus temozolomide in 606 people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. The goal is to see if the higher-dose approaches improve over…

This study is for men whose prostate cancer has returned after prostate removal surgery, shown by a rising PSA. It compares standard radiation therapy alone versus radiation plus a drug called apalutamide, which blocks male hormones that fuel cancer growth. The goal is to see if …

This study looks at whether a dye called iohexol can help doctors better calculate the dose of the chemotherapy drug carboplatin for cancer patients. The goal is to make sure patients get the right amount of drug to fight their cancer while reducing side effects. About 318 men wi…
