Comparative Effectiveness Trial of Two Supportive Cancer Care Delivery Models for Adults With Cancer
This cluster-randomized comparative effectiveness trial compares a technology-based supportive cancer care (SCC) approach with a redesigned team-based supportive cancer care (SCC) approach.

Comparing Retreatment of 177Lu-DOTATATE PRRT Versus Everolimus in Patients With Metastatic Unresectable Midgut Neuroendocrine Tumors, NET RETREAT Trial
This phase II trial compares the effect of retreatment with 177Lu-DOTATATE peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) to the usual approach of treatment with everolimus in patients who have previously received 177Lu-DOTATATE for midgut neuroendocrine tumor (NET) that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) and that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). PRRT is a type of radiation therapy for which a radioactive chemical is linked to a peptide (small protein) that targets cancer cells. When this radioactive peptide is injected into the body, it binds to a specific receptor found on some cancer cells. The radioactive...

Comparing Single vs Multiple Dose Radiation for Cancer Patients With Brain Metastasis and Receiving Immunotherapy
This study is designed to see if we can lower the chance of side effects from radiation in patients with breast, kidney, small cell lung cancer, non-small cell lung cancer or melanoma that has spread to the brain and who are also being treated with immunotherapy, specifically immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. This study will compare the usual care treatment of single fraction stereotactic radiosurgery (SSRS) given on one day versus fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (FSRS), which is a lower dose of radiation given over a few days to determine if FSRS is better or worse at reducing side effects than usual care treatment.

Comparing Telehealth and In-person Assessments in Glioma Patients Receiving Oral Chemotherapy
This phase IV trial compares patient satisfaction with telehealth versus in-person neuro-oncology assessments among glioma patients receiving oral chemotherapy. Gliomas are the most common primary central nervous system cancer and are associated with a high symptom burden, such as drowsiness, fatigue, memory difficulty, and difficulty communicating. Care at a high volume center is associated with an overall survival benefit, however, many patients may have physical or financial difficulties preventing access to these centers. Telehealth visits use computers, cameras, videoconferencing, the internet, satellite, and wireless communications to deliver healthcare, while...

Comparing the Addition of Radiation Either Before or After Surgery for Patients With Brain Metastases
This phase III trial compares the usual treatment of surgery after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) to receiving SRS before surgery in treating patients with cancer that has spread to the brain (brain metastases). Stereotactic radiosurgery is a type of radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation to target tumors and minimizes effect on normal surrounding brain tissue. The combination of surgery and radiation may stop the tumor from growing for a few months or longer and may reduce symptoms of brain metastases. This study investigates whether treating with SRS before surgery may be better than SRS after surgery in reducing the possibility of the tumor coming...

Comparing Tunlametinib Capsules and Combination Chemotherapy in Advanced NRAS-mutant Melanoma
This is a multicenter, two-arm, open-label, randomized controlled phase III clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tunlametinib capsule in comparison with the combination chemotherapy of investigator's choice in advanced melanoma patients with NRAS mutation who have received immunotherapy before. Subjects were stratified according to the baseline lactate dehydrogenase level and chemotherapy.

Comparison of Adjuvant Treatment With 177Lu-DOTATATE to Best Supportive Care in Patients After Resection of Neuroendocrine Liver Metastases
An international multi-centre, open, randomised, parallel-group phase II study comparing adjuvant treatment with 177Lu-DOTATATE to best supportive care in patients after complete surgical removal of neuroendocrine liver metastases. In this study, adjuvant treatment with 177Lu-DOTATATE will be compared with best supportive care in patients with well differentiated grade 1 or 2 neuroendocrine tumours in the stomach, pancreas or gut (gastro-entero-pancreatic NETs) who had their primary tumour already removed or in whom both primary and liver tumour metastases removal will take place simultaneously, including removal of perihilar lymph nodes will be eligible. The primary objective...

Comparison of Al18F-NOTA-LM3 With 68Ga-DOTATATE and 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 PET/CT in Patients With Well-differentiated Neuroendocrine Tumors
This prospective, single-center, double-blinded study investigates the biodistribution, dosimetry, safety, and diagnostic ability of Al18F-NOTA-LM3 in patients with well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors. And compares the diagnostic ability of Al18F-NOTA-LM3 with 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT and 68Ga-NODAGA-LM3 PET/CT. Clinical management will also be compared using different imaging modalities.

Comparison of In-Home Versus In-Clinic Administration of Subcutaneous Nivolumab Through Cancer CARE (Connected Access and Remote Expertise) Beyond Walls (CCBW) Program
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...

Comparison of Molecular-Genetic Concordance of the Primary Tumor and Brain Metastases of Colorectal Cancer
GENCONCOR-1 study is translational research aimed to investigate the concordance of the molecular genetic profile of the primary tumor and brain metastases (BM) of colorectal cancer (CRC). The study was conducted by post hoc analysis of pairs of samples of histological material with determination of the mutational status of genes KRAS, NRAS, BRAF, HER2 and MSI.
