Guided Meditation During Radiation Therapy for Brain Tumors
The goal of this interventional treatment study is to assess the anxiolytic effect of providing guided meditation during radiation treatment (RT) in patients with brain tumors. The main question it aims to answer is: • What is the change in acute anxiety in participants receiving the mindfulness intervention during radiation …
Rectal Spacers Use in Prostate Cancer Radiation Therapy
This prospective, 2-arm clinical trial aims to evaluate the use of rectal spacers in patients with localized prostate cancer scheduled for Proton Beam Therapy (PBT). Up to 50 subjects will be enrolled in this study. Study visits will include screening, spacer placement, treatment planning, end-of-treatment assessment, and follow-up visits at …
Preoperative Fractionated Radiation Therapy Versus Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Resectable or Borderline Resectable, or Locally Advanced Type A Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma
Patients are randomized into two arms. Arm A patients will receive Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) and Arm B patients with receive conventional concurrent chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for Unresectable Liver Metastases
This is a Phase II study to determine the efficacy of SBRT to treat liver metastases in patients with Colorectal Adenocarcinoma, Carcinoma of the Anal Canal and Gastrointestinal Neuroendocrine Tumors that are not amenable to surgery. Patients should have no evidence of extra-hepatic disease or have disease that is planned …
Concurrent Chemotherapy Plus HFR Radiation Therapy in Inoperable NSCLC
The standard treatment for patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and clinically negative lymph nodes remains surgery per current guidelines. Five year survival for patients with stage I non-small cell lung cancer is generally greater than 50% after surgery. Many of these patients have heart and lung issues or …
Hypofractionated Radiation Therapy vs Standard Treatment in Breast Cancer.
An explanatory study comparing complementary treatment to breast conservative surgery with radiation therapy DCIS, T1-T2 N0 M0 (AJCC v8) 1 week schedule vs 3.1 weeks standard schedule, in order to determine the equivalence of local tumor control, survival, acute and chronic toxicity. Shorter curse of radiation therapy may lead to …
Phase II Study of Proton Radiation Therapy for Neuroblastoma
This research study is evaluating a therapy called proton beam radiation therapy (PBRT) as a possible treatment for neuroblastoma. Neuroblastoma most commonly occurs in and around the adrenal glands, which are located at the top of the kidneys. However, it can also occur in other areas where groups of nerve …
Salvage Cryotherapy for Recurrent Prostate Cancer After Radiation Therapy
The main objective of this project is to establish a shared comprehensive and systematic protocol for a multicenter prospective registry of patients undergoing salvage cryoablation of the prostate (SCAP). Our study hypothesis is that SCAP constitutes an effective and safe approach to treat local prostate cancer recurrence after brachytherapy or …
Brass Mesh Bolus in Rotational Post-Mastectomy Radiation Therapy
The hypothesis is that the daily use of brass mesh bolus achieves a comparable dose to every-other-day use of Superflab bolus (current standard of care) in chest wall post-mastectomy patients treated with rotational 6 MV photon delivery.
Nodal Radiation Therapy for Sentinel Lymph Node Positive Melanoma
This phase II trial seeks to determine the role of nodal radiation therapy after sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) for patients with high risk sentinel lymph node positive melanoma who are planned for immunotherapy without completion lymph node dissection. Prior studies of patients with more advanced melanoma have shown nodal …
