Clinical Trials Alan C. Hartford is currently running
Relugolix + Radiation
for Advanced-Stage Prostate Cancer
This phase II trial compares the usual treatment of radiation therapy alone to using the study drug, relugolix, plus the usual radiation therapy in patients with castration-sensitive prostate cancer that has spread to limited other parts of the body (oligometastatic). Relugolix is in a class of medications called gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor antagonists. It works by decreasing the amount of testosterone (a male hormone) produced by the body. It may stop the growth of cancer cells that need testosterone to grow. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x rays or protons to kill tumor cells. The addition of relugolix to the radiation may reduce the chance of oligometastatic prostate cancer spreading further.

Phase 2
Radiation Therapy vs Observation
for Meningioma
This trial studies if radiation therapy helps prevent the return of grade II meningioma after surgery. Radiation therapy uses powerful x-rays to destroy any leftover cancer cells. The goal is to see if this improves patient outcomes compared to just monitoring them. Radiation therapy has shown success in stabilizing tumor growth and reducing recurrence risk.
