The EXPAND trial (EXtending outcomes for PAncreas cancer patients with Nominal oligometastatic Disease) is a randomized phase III trial assessing the efficacy of MDT to improve PFS and OS for patients with oligometastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
The prospective single-arm pilot study, ATHERO-RT: Real-Time Atherosclerosis Activity after Thoracic Radiotherapy using Sodium Fluoride Positron Emission Tomography, will aim to: 1. To deploy first-in-kind application of fluorine 18-sodium fluoride (18F-NaF) PET (Positron Emission Tomography) /MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) imaging to detect real-time atherosclerosis activity at the time of cancer diagnosis and after cardiac radiation exposure 2. To detect longitudinal changes in clonal hematopoiesis (CH) genetic architecture following thoracic RT (Radiation Therapy) in patients at high risk of cardiac dysfunction, and 3. To measure perturbations in the immune-modulatory and metabolic states following thoracic RT (Radiation Therapy) exposure in patients at high risk of cardiac dysfunction. Eligible patients will be adults (≥18 years old) with Stage II-III or oligo-metastatic stage IV malignancy (any histology) at high risk for RT-associated cardiac toxicity (defined as receiving ≥30 Gy (Gray) RT where the heart is in the treatment field54). The study will enroll a total of 10 subjects, recruited from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. The primary endpoint will be successful completion of 18F-NaF PET imaging at the baseline and 6-month post-RT time points. Blood will be collected at baseline, end of RT, and 6-months post-RT.
The purpose of this research study is to compare the effects, good and/or bad, of using the standard of care treatment, hormonal therapy + Stereotactic Ablative Radiation (SABR) to the metastatic lesions, compared to standard of care and addition of 6-months of niraparib/abiraterone acetate combination pills and prednisone for participants with recurrent metastatic prostate cancer.
Surgical Resection of Synchronous Pulmonary or Hepatic Oligometastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PHOLIPANC). This is an interventional, open-label, non-randomised, single-arm phase II clinical trial. Eligible patients with hepatic or pulmonary oligometastatic adenocarcinoma of the pancreas must have received neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy in cycles of 14 days, or other clinically indicated alternative. FOLFIRINOX is not a study treatment.
This research is being done to see if we can improve the outcome of prostate cancer patients who present with metastatic lesions at initial diagnosis.
