This study aims to determine whether morning versus afternoon treatment impacts efficacy of (standard of care) immunotherapy in a broad patient population. Patients with any type of advanced/metastatic malignancy are eligible to enroll in this study, as long as first-line anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy is on label for their condition. Participants will …
Our institution recently began incorporating a novel "tongue-out" radiation therapy (TORT) technique for patients with head and neck tumors at particular subsites (oropharynx, larynx, hypopharynx). Protruding the tongue, i.e. "tongue-out" position, induces anatomical changes that facilitate decreased radiation dose to the oral tongue and PCM. The long-term goal is to …
This randomized control trial (RCT) explores two potential stress reduction interventions: a digital mindfulness program personalized for first year college students and a problem-solving based stress management program.
