PHASE2

HEARTS Trial for Thoracic Cancers

Sponsor: University of Wisconsin, Madison

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare a new way of using magnetic resonance-guided adaptive radiation therapy (MRgART) to the standard of care linear accelerator (LINAC) radiation treatment in people with cancer in the thoracic region near the heart. The main question it aims to answer is whether MRgART affects the heart differently than LINAC. Participants will: * Receive radiation therapy * Undergo MRIs and bloodwork * Complete quality of life questionnaires

Official title: The cARdiac Radiation Therapy Sparing (HEARTS) for Thoracic Cancers

Interventions

RADIATION

MRgART

Magnetic Resonance-guided Adaptive Radiation Therapy (MRgART) is a form of MRgRT that incorporates daily adaptive planning, or making a new treatment plan each treatment, and real-time imaging during treatment delivery.

RADIATION

LINAC

Daily 3D x-ray scans will be obtained for radiation delivery to confirm tumor and organ at risk placement.
