SWOG S1827 (MAVERICK) Testing Whether the Use of Brain Scans Alone Instead of Brain Scans Plus Preventive Brain Radiation Affects Lifespan in Patients With Small Cell Lung Cancer

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To evaluate whether overall survival (OS) with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) surveillance alone is not inferior to MRI surveillance combined with prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) for the treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare cognitive failure free survival (CFFS) rate up to...

Testing the Addition of the Drug Atezolizumab to the Usual Radiation Treatment for Patients With Early Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To compare overall survival (OS) in patients with inoperable, early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) randomized to stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) with or without atezolizumab. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare investigator-assessed progression-free survival (IA-PFS) between the arms. II. To compare progression free survival (PFS) by...

Standard Systemic Therapy With or Without Definitive Treatment in Treating Participants With Metastatic Prostate Cancer

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare overall survival in metastatic prostate cancer patients who are randomized to standard systemic therapy (SST) plus definitive treatment of the primary tumor versus standard systemic therapy alone. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare overall survival in metastatic prostate cancer patients who received SST plus surgical excision...

Epidemiology of Young Lung Cancer - Survey

This is a 100% virtual (remote), case-case study to explore potential environmental, lifestyle and genetic factors that may be associated with driver mutations of young lung cancer in the U.S.

Hispanic Patient Engagement in Colorectal Cancer Genomics, COPECC Study

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To create a well-characterized cohort of Hispanic patients with colon cancer, with patient-level data, genomic, transcriptomic, clinical, and outcomes data. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To identify genomic/transcriptomic predictors of treatment outcomes (time to recurrence, time to progression, and overall survival). II. To identify associations between somatic tumor deoxyribonucleic...

Core Biopsies for Establishing a Breast Tumor Tissue Repository

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To develop a baseline and serial breast cancer core biopsy repository within the University of Southern California (USC)/Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center Women's Cancer Program. II. To develop and maintain a secure clinical database of relevant demographic, clinical, pathologic and longitudinal outcome characteristics of the samples to be...

7 Tesla MRI Neuroimaging in Testicular Cancer Patients With Hypogonadism and on Androgen Replacement Therapy

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To assess longitudinal structural changes in brain architecture using MRI in hypogonadal men with testis cancer being treated with androgen replacement therapy. OUTLINE: This is an observational study. Patients undergo 7T MRI over 1-2 hours at baseline and at 12 months after baseline. Patients also undergo a...

MAGESTIC Trial: MiRNA in Detecting Active Germ Cell Tumors in Early Suspected and MetastaTIC Disease Trial

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To measure the accuracy of the blood-based biomarker miRNA-371 to predict pre-operatively the presence of active germ cell malignancy. OUTLINE: This is an observational study. Patients undergo blood sample collection during screening and throughout the study. Patients whose screening blood samples show elevated miRNA-371 proceed to standard...
