Cancer Clinical Trials in Jacksonville, FL

Previous studies of this type of head and necl cancer have shown high rates of cancer control but result in many short and long term side effects when treated with high dose radiation and chemotherapy. Recently, investigators have noticed similar high rates of cancer control in small numbers of patients who receive less intensive treatments using lower doses of radiation, smaller radiation fields with chemotherapy. It is expected that the side effects of treatment with lower doses of radiation would be less. For this reason this study is looking at a different regimen of reducing the intensity of the treatment. The purpose of this study is to compare any good and bad effects of using lower dose smaller fields radiation therapy and chemotherapy with published outcomes. This study will allow the researchers to know whether these different approaches are better, the same, or worse than the usual approach. To be better, the study approach should result in the same survival rate of the usual approach (about 85 out of 100 patients alive and free of cancer at 2 years) but with less long-term side effects.

This phase II trial compares the impact of subcutaneous (SC) nivolumab given in an in-home setting to an in-clinic setting on cancer care and quality of life. Currently, most drug-related cancer care is conducted in clinic type centers or hospitals which may isolate patients from family, friends and familiar surroundings for many hours per day. This separation adds to the physical, emotional, social, and financial burden for patients and their families. Traveling to and from medical facilities costs time, money, and effort and can be a disadvantage to patients living in rural areas, those with low incomes or poor access to transport. Studies have shown that cancer patients often feel more comfortable and secure being cared for in their own home environments. SC nivolumab in-home treatment may be safe, tolerable and/or effective when compared to in-clinic treatment and may reduce the burden of cancer and improve the quality of life in cancer patients.

The purpose of this study is to explore the clinical utility of routinely measuring thymidine kinase activity (TKa) in HR+ metastatic breast cancer patients receiving treatment with any approved endocrine therapy either alone or in combination with any approved CDK4/6 inhibitor. Read Less

The purpose of this research study is to learn more about the effects of using proton radiation therapy delivered over a shorter course of treatment (3 weeks) compared with a longer, standard course of treatment (5 weeks) for women with breast cancer who require radiotherapy to the breast/chest wall and regional lymph nodes.

This study is being done to answer the following question: Is the chance of cancer spreading or returning the same if radiotherapy to the neck is guided, by using a special imaging study called lymph node mapping (lymphatic mapping) Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT-CT), compared to the usual treatment when radiotherapy is given to both sides of the neck?
