Comparing Proton Therapy to Photon Radiation Therapy for Esophageal Cancer
This trial studies how well proton beam radiation therapy compared with intensity modulated photon radiotherapy works in treating patients with stage I-IVA esophageal cancer. Proton beam radiation therapy uses a beam of protons (rather than x-rays) to send radiation inside the body to the tumor without damaging much of the …
Hypoxia Imaging for Esophageal Cancer to Guide Personalized Radiation Therapy
This is a Phase I trial evaluating the safety of personalized radiation therapy based on levels of hypoxia identified on FMISO-PET and MRI. All patients will receive a baseline FMISO positron emission tomography (PET) and MRI to identify levels of hypoxia. Patients with tumor hypoxia will receive a higher dose …
PSMA-Directed Para-Aortic Radiation Therapy for Oligorecurrent Prostate Cancer
The purpose of this prostate cancer research study is to learn about: Improving control of prostate cancer using radiation therapy, delivered to the para-aortic and pelvic lymph nodes, in addition to systemic androgen suppression therapy; Preserving quality of life after radiation therapy; Leveraging imaging results from prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) …
Using Xe MRI to Guide Radiation Therapy for Lung Cancer
The purpose of this research study is to explore using MRI scans with xenon to better image lung function, how lung function changes after radiation therapy, and to guide radiation therapy away from parts of the lung that have good function. This project is foundational to performing additional studies to …
Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Inoperable Non-metastasized Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma
This is a multicenter randomized phase II trial that aims to include 160 patients with a non-metastatic (localized), inoperable pancreatic tumor. The study will take place at multiple centers across Europe. The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate superiority in progression free survival (PFS) by adding stereotactic body …
Testing Higher Dose Radiation Therapy for Locally Advanced Pancreatic Cancer
This phase III trial compares the effect of dose-escalated radiation therapy to usual care in patients with locally advanced unresectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who have received an initial 4-6 months of chemotherapy. Usual care options include additional chemotherapy, observation, or standard lower-dose radiation therapy. These treatments may delay tumor growth …
Guided Meditation During Radiation Therapy for Breast and Gynecological Malignancies
The goal of this study is to assess the effect of brief mindfulness-guided meditations during radiation therapy (RT) for patients with anxiety related to RT for breast and gynecological cancers.
Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy After Chemotherapy for Unresectable Perihilar Cholangiocarcinoma
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) as additional treatment after standard chemotherapy regarding tumor local control, toxicity, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival and quality of life. In addition, the objective is to explore the value of immunodynamics in peripheral blood …
Exercise Therapy and Radiation Therapy (EXERT) for Metastatic Prostate Cancer
This study is being done to determine if patients receiving personalized exercise therapy (versus those who do not receive personalized exercise therapy) have improved quality of life and physical functioning after completing their radiation therapy. Second, the study is being done to find if the quality of life changes during …
Non-ablative Oligofractionated Radiation Therapy Before Surgical Transplantation As Radiovaccination
This is a prospective phase I study to determine the safety and feasibility of non-ablative oligofractionated radiation therapy (NORT) before lung transplantation for patients with underlying pulmonary malignancy. We hypothesize that heterogeneous dose distributions could generate a vaccination effect against the tumor by creating anti-tumoral immune response in the body …
