Does the Use of a Genomic Tumor Board Increase the Number of Patients Who Receive Genome-Informed Treatment
Recruiting
This clinical trial studies how well an educationally enhanced genomic tumor board (EGTB) intervention works to increase the number of patients with solid tumors that have come back (recurrent), do not respond to treatment (refractory), have spread to other parts of the body (metastatic), or are newly diagnosed and spread to other parts of the body (advanced) who receive genome-informed treatment. Genome-informed treatment refers to treatment based on the information found in genomic tumor test... Read More

Testing the Addition of Stereotactic Radiation Therapy With Immune Therapy for the Treatment of Patients With Unresectable or Metastatic Renal Cell Cancer, SAMURAI Study
Recruiting
This phase II trial tests whether the addition of radiation to the primary tumor, typically given with stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR), in combination with standard of care immunotherapy improves outcomes in patients with renal cell cancer that is not recommended for surgery and has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Radiation therapy uses high energy photons to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Stereotactic body radiation therapy uses special equipment to position... Read More

Use of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Patients With Early-Stage, Palpable Node-Positive HR+/HER2- Breast Cancer Having Upfront Surgery and Adjuvant Radiation
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to find out how often the researchers can avoid an ALND in patients with early-stage, node-positive HR+/HER2- breast cancer who are having upfront surgery. The study researchers think that, if AUS before surgery can help identify people who may have up to 3 affected lymph nodes, it will be possible to perform the less radical standard SLNB during surgery.

A Study to See if Memantine Protects the Brain During Radiation Therapy Treatment for Primary Central Nervous System Tumors
Recruiting
This phase III trial compares memantine to usual treatment in treating patients with primary central nervous system tumors. Memantine may block receptors (parts of nerve cells) in the brain known to contribute to a decline in cognitive function. Giving memantine may make a difference in cognitive function (attention, memory, or other thought processes) in children and adolescents receiving brain radiation therapy to treat a primary central nervous system tumors.
