This study tests a high-dose, precise radiation treatment called SBRT for people with high-risk localized pancreatic cancer. The goal is to see if it can stop the cancer from growing in the treated area for at least 12 months. About 30 participants will receive SBRT along with ch…

This study compares three types of radiation therapy for prostate cancer to see which one controls the cancer best and causes the fewest side effects. About 500 men with prostate cancer are taking part. The goal is to find the most effective and safest way to deliver radiation.

This study compares two different radiation schedules for people with breast cancer who have had surgery. The goal is to see which schedule causes less fatigue and improves quality of life. About 132 adults will receive either standard or shorter radiation sessions to the breast,…

This study compares a newer, more precise single dose of radiation to the standard single dose for people with cancer that has spread. The goal is to see if the advanced technique provides longer-lasting relief from pain and other symptoms. About 100 adults with metastatic cancer…

This study tests whether a special imaging scan (SPECT) can measure changes in liver function after radiation therapy for liver cancer. Twenty adults with liver cancer will receive the scan before and after treatment. The goal is to see if the scan can help doctors understand how…

This study tests a method called KIM that uses small gold markers in the prostate to track movement during radiation therapy. If the prostate moves more than 3mm, the radiation beam pauses and is realigned. The goal is to see if this technique is practical and accurate for everyd…

This study tests whether a new imaging method can track lung tumors during radiation treatment without needing to implant markers. Five adults with early-stage lung cancer or limited lung metastases will have their radiation sessions recorded and analyzed offline. The goal is to …

This study tests a new technology that adjusts the radiation beam to follow lung tumors as they move when a person breathes during treatment. About 20 adults with early-stage lung cancer or limited lung metastases will take part. The goal is to see if the system works reliably an…
