Race against recurrence: does flipping the order of radiation and surgery help control brain tumors?
Disease control OngoingThis study is for people with 1-4 brain tumors that have spread from cancer elsewhere in the body and where one tumor needs surgery. It compares two standard treatment sequences: having precise, high-dose radiation (stereotactic radiosurgery) before the tumor is removed versus ha…

New brain cancer fight: can a second drug boost lung cancer treatment?
Disease control OngoingThis study is testing if adding a drug called bevacizumab to a standard lung cancer drug (osimertinib) works better to control cancer that has spread to the brain. It is for adults with a specific type of advanced lung cancer (EGFR-positive non-small cell lung cancer) who have no…

Genetic testing guides brain cancer fight
Disease control TerminatedThis study tests whether using genetic testing to match patients with specific drugs can help control cancer that has spread to the brain. It is for adults with solid tumors (like lung or breast cancer) that have spread to the brain and have certain genetic changes. Patients rece…
