Radiation Therapy

for Brain Metastasis

This phase III trial compares the effectiveness of fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (FSRS) to usual care stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in treating patients with cancer that has spread from where it first started to the brain. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. FSRS delivers a high dose of radiation to the tumor over 3 treatments. SRS is a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position the patient and precisely give a single large dose of radiation to a tumor. FSRS may be more effective compared to SRS in treating patients with cancer that has spread to the brain.

Iohexol-aided Carboplatin Dosing

for Cancer

This trial studies how well iohexol helps doctors calculate the dose of carboplatin for cancer patients. By measuring kidney function more accurately, doctors can improve the effectiveness and safety of carboplatin treatment. Carboplatin is a platinum-based chemotherapy drug used to treat various cancers, known for its improved toxicity profile compared to cisplatin.

ZEN-3694 + Talazoparib

for Cancer

This trial tests if combining ZEN-3694 and talazoparib can shrink advanced tumors that don't respond to standard treatments. ZEN-3694 blocks proteins that help tumors grow, and talazoparib stops cancer cells from fixing their damaged DNA, causing them to die. The study also looks at how patients' genes affect their response to this treatment. Talazoparib is a potent PARP inhibitor that has shown significant efficacy in treating advanced BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutated breast cancer.
