What to expect

No one can promise a trial will help you personally — that is what the research is trying to find out.

What participation involves

  • Procedures mentioned: MRI scans

Only what the study's summary and detailed description on ClinicalTrials.gov say. Time periods may describe the whole study or a part of it — ask the study team what applies to you.

Show the study's own words
  • "A Phase I clinical trial tests the feasibility and safety of an investigational intervention. "Investigational" means that the process targeting high doses of radiation to the tumor based on MRI is still being studied."
Compensation
Not stated
  • Study-related exams and procedures are typically provided at no cost. This is how many trials work in general — confirm the details for this study with the study team.
  • Participants are monitored closely by the research team throughout the study.
  • Some participants may receive access to an investigational treatment, which is still being studied.
  • Your participation helps researchers learn whether this approach could help future patients.

About this study

In plain language

This study tests whether using MRI scans to plan radiation treatment is practical and works well. It is for adults with confirmed cancer who need radiation treatment.

This is a master protocol for a prospective Phase I-II study evaluating feasibility and efficacy of incorporating magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) simulation into the planning of radiation treatments.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.

Eligibility

Who can join

  • You have confirmed cancer that needs radiation treatment.
  • You are 18 or older.
  • You can care for yourself for at least part of the day, though you may need some help (ECOG score of 2 or less or Karnofsky score of 60% or higher).
  • You can understand the study and are willing to sign a consent form.
  • You must meet any added rules in the study plan for your type of cancer.

Who can't join

  • You have had an allergic reaction to gadolinium, a dye injected into a vein for some MRI scans. This rule applies only if your scan will use this dye.
  • You cannot have an MRI scan.
  • The study plan for your type of cancer may list other reasons you cannot join.

Simplified for readability. The official criteria below are what the study team uses.

Official eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria: * Participants must have a confirmed malignancy requiring radiation therapy. * Age: 18 years or older * ECOG performance status ≤2 (Karnofsky ≥60%, see Appendix A) * Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document. * Disease-specific eligibility criteria will be specified in the appropriate subprotocol. Exclusion Criteria: * For MRI involving contrast, history of allergic reactions attributed to gadolinium based IV contrast. Note: If patient will not receive contrast, this is not applicable * Participants who cannot undergo an MRI * Disease-specific exclusion criteria will be specified in the appropriate subprotocol
