Protection of Rectum From High Radiation Doses Using a Spacer
Prostatic NeoplasmsGenital Neoplasms3 moreThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of diluted and non-diluted DuraSeal product as a spacer between prostate and rectum in prostate cancer low-dose brachytherapy.
Acupuncture for the Immune System in Radiation Cancer Patients
Gastrointestinal NeoplasmsUrogenital NeoplasmsPurpose/Goal: To investigate how long course radiation therapy (RT), both with or without chemotherapy, affects the immune system, and to determine if acupuncture can modify these effects in patients undergoing curative radiation therapy for gastrointestinal (GI) or genitourinary (GU) cancers. Clinical or Research Questions: Does RT reduce immune biomarkers in treated subjects? Which biomarkers are most affected by treatment? Is acupuncture a feasible option to help ameliorate any biomarker effects? Does RT affect subject symptoms? Is acupuncture a feasible option to help ameliorate any symptom effects?

Urinary Bladder NeoplasmsUrologic Neoplasms5 moreA multi-institutional, prospective, randomised, open-label, superiority, comparative, active-controlled, phase 3 study. The study will compare Synergo RF-induced hyperthermia-chemotherapy (SHTC) plus mitomycin C (MMC) to standard treatment of bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) therapy as first-line adjuvant treatment for intermediate and high-risk NMIBC, and will evaluate recurrence and progression rate over two years of follow-up.
Guided Imagery in the Perioperative Period in Gynecologic Oncology Patients
Uterine Cervical NeoplasmsUterine Neoplasms3 moreThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of self-administered perioperative guided imagery to reduce perioperative distress in gynecologic oncology patients undergoing surgical management for a presumed cancer diagnosis.
Self-Testing Options in the Era of Primary HPV Screening for Cervical Cancer Trial
Uterine Cervical NeoplasmUterine Neoplasms13 moreThe Self-Testing options in the Era of Primary HPV screening for cervical cancer (STEP) trial will evaluate effectiveness of home-based HPV kits for improving cervical cancer screening uptake and its cost-effectiveness. The investigators will compare cervical cancer screening uptake within six months among women randomized to different outreach approaches based on prior screening behavior: A) Adherent and coming due: direct mail HPV kit vs. opt-in HPV kit vs. education; B) Overdue: direct mail HPV kit vs. education; C) Unknown: opt-in HPV kit vs. education.
