Clinical Trials Alan C. Hartford is currently running
Hormone + Radiation Therapy
for Prostate Cancer
This phase III trial compares less intense hormone therapy and radiation therapy to usual hormone therapy and radiation therapy in treating patients with high risk prostate cancer and low gene risk score. This trial also compares more intense hormone therapy and radiation therapy to usual hormone therapy and radiation therapy in patients with high risk prostate cancer and high gene risk score. Apalutamide may help fight prostate cancer by blocking the use of androgen by the tumor cells. Radiation therapy uses high energy rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Giving a shorter hormone therapy treatment may work the same at controlling prostate cancer compared to the usual 24 month hormone therapy treatment in patients with low gene risk score. Adding apalutamide to the usual treatment may increase the length of time without prostate cancer spreading as compared to the usual treatment in patients with high gene risk score.

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.
