Filter by:Head and neck cancer is a disease that has a particular propensity for treatment-related morbidity. It is hypothesized that patients who are more involved in their care in hospital and who are actively provided with more treatment-related education may report increased satisfaction and have improved overall outcomes. The investigators aim to determine whether delivery of patient-centred education in a multimedia format via a digital platform has an impact on overall satisfaction and perceived quality of medical care.
The researchers are doing this study to collect more information about if, and how, neurocognitive function may be affected in people being treated with radiation therapy for head and neck cancer. Part of this study is to see if patients diagnosed with head and neck cancer who are undergoing radiation therapy are able to complete neurocognitive testing and questionnaires at 3 times over a period of 1 year.
In this study, the investigators aim to undertake a retrospective analysis of CT and MRI scans for patients undergoing radiation treatment to develop radiomic signatures to predict treatment response and clinical outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to further evaluate the efficacy and safety of niraparib in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors and a pathogenic or likely pathogenic tumor PALB2 (tPALB2) mutation.
The purpose of this prospective, interventional, single-arm pilot study is to evaluate whether virtually delivered group-based physical activity is feasible for adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors. AYAs who were diagnosed with cancer and have completed cancer treatment will be recruited for this study. This study will enroll 20 participants in total and will last approximately 3 months.
This study aims to evaluate if eating within an 8-10-hour window during the day, without any caloric restriction, can lead to better response rates to immunotherapy in head and neck cancer patients.
This is a multicenter, open-label, phase I/II basket study, evaluating the safety, tolerability, RP2D, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and antitumor activity of EOS-448 (also known as GSK4428859A or belrestotug) combined with standard of care and/or with investigational therapies in participants with advanced solid tumors.
Dose-painting may increase the chance of cure at minimised radiation-induced toxicity in volumetric-arc radiotherapy (VMAT) for head and neck cancer. This trial (RADPAINT) investigates the safety of FDG-PET guided radiotherapy using VMAT dose-painting by contours for patients with head and neck cancer of poor prognosis.
Varian Medical Systems has recently deployed a completely novel radiation treatment system called EthosTM, a first-of-its-kind system that allows for daily adapative radiotherapy (DART), such that the treatment for that day can be created on-the-fly based on the patient's current positioning and anatomy. This system is commercially-available and FDA-approved, and UTSW Radiation Oncology has installed two such units. The ability to adjust the dose delivery every day means both that adaptive therapy is possible with every fraction and that the PTV margin can be dramatically reduced/eliminated, since investigators are treating for that day's patient setup. Investigators are therefore proposing a randomized trial using DART with near marginless (ML) setup margins (a 1 mm margin will be retained for intrafractional motion).
This is a pilot study of the Body Image after Head and Neck Cancer Treatment Program [BIHNC]. It is a six-week, psychoeducational, web-based program that includes e-learning didactic modules and personal reflection activities for participants to complete.
