Radiation Therapy
Unilateral vs Bilateral Radiotherapy for Head and Neck Cancer
Recruiting1 award
Edmonton, Alberta
This trial is testing whether giving radiation to only one side of the neck, instead of both, can be just as effective for patients with head and neck cancer who have had surgery. The goal is to see if this approach can reduce side effects and improve quality of life. Radiation treatment works by using high-energy rays to destroy cancer cells.

Radiation Therapy Schedules for Breast Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2
Houston, Texas
This trial is comparing two different treatment schedules for women who need radiation therapy to their lymph nodes as part of their breast cancer treatment. One schedule takes 6 weeks and the other takes 4 weeks. The purpose of the trial is to see if the shorter schedule will lower the risk of developing arm swelling, also known as lymphedema, after radiation treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the 'trial drug' — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
Is there any support for travel costs?
Many of the teams running clinical trials will cover the cost of transportation to-and-from their care center.
Will I know what medication I am taking?
This depends on the specific study. If you're worried about receiving a placebo, you can actively filter out these trials using our search.
How long do clinical trials last?
Some trials will only require a single visit, while others will continue until your disease returns. It's fairly common for a trial to last somewhere between 1 and 6 months.
Do you verify all the trials on your website?
All of the trials listed on Power have been formally registered with the US Food and Drug Administration. Beyond this, some trials on Power have been formally 'verified' if the team behind the trial has completed an additional level of verification with our team.
How quickly will I hear back from a clinical trial?
Sadly, this response time can take anywhere from 6 hours to 2 weeks. We're working hard to speed up how quickly you hear back — in general, verified trials respond to patients within a few days.
