In this study, we want to learn if modifying the region of your head and neck that receives the radiation therapy will affect your xerostomia (excessive dry mouth).
Have you been diagnosed with unfavorable risk prostate cancer? Are you looking for treatment options? If so, you may be able to participate in a clinical trial examining different treatment options for prostate cancer.
Do you plan to undergo radiation therapy for a cancer in the abdomen or pelvic region? You may be able to take part in a research study to help us learn if a fatty acid supplement can improve quality of life by limiting GI upset during radiation therapy.
Have you been diagnosed with cancer or a benign disease that is being evaluated for cancer for which you may receive treatment? If so, you may be able to take part in a research study that collects biospecimens (e.g. blood, saliva, tissue, etc) and health information to better understand how cancers develop and affect the body,]. If so, you may be able to take part in a research study that aims to identify non-invasive biomarkers for cervical cancer screening and monitoring following treatment of abnormal areas on the cervix caused by HPV.
Have you been diagnosed with Low Risk Breast Cancer? Have you already been treated with surgery? If so, you may be able to take part in a research study looking at the effect of regional nodal radiotherapy.
Have you been diagnosed with metastatic brain cancer (tumor)? If so, you may be able to take part in a research study looking at the safety of giving radiation therapy through a device called GammaTiles™ to patients with newly diagnosed metastatic brain tumors planned for surgical resection.
Are you a patient with locally advanced or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma? If so, you may be eligible to participate in a clinical research study involving an investigational drug, NBTXR3.
To determine the feasibility and toxicity of using prostate-specific membrane antigen-positron emission tomography (PSMA-PET) and multi-parametric magnetic resonance imagining (mpMRI) to guide target volumes for patients with unfavorable-risk prostate cancer receiving radiation.
To determine if plasma circulating HPV DNA (cHPVDNA) has potential as a non-invasive biomarker for identification and treatment monitoring of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grades 2-3 by characterizing correlation between plasma cHPVDNA levels and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade prior to intervention and after excision.
Have you been diagnosed with oropharyngeal (tonsil or tongue base) cancer. If so, you may be able to take part in a research study testing markers to determine who may be appropriate for less aggressive therapy and markers to determine if recurrent tumors can be detected earlier.
