Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (5)
Number of Patients and delivering MR-image guided radiation-Phase I
Master feasibility study evaluating MR-image guided radiation. Feasibility is defined as Enrolling patients and delivering MR-image guided radiation on the MR Linac
5 weeks
Tumor Assessment with MR Guidance-Phase I
Master feasibility study evaluating MR-image guided radiation. Feasibility is defined as assessing tumor using MR guidance before, during and after MR-guided treatment patient.
5 weeks
Patient reported outcomes (PROMs) -Phase II
PROMs are collected at patient visits. PROMs will be evaluated using the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS). The PROMIS Global-10 metric collects information on symptoms and quality of life.
1 year
1-year tumor control-Phase II
Tumor response 1 year after radiation treatment
1 year
Rate of Pathologic complete response-Gastric
full pathological review of surgical specimen according to the AJCC Staging Classification, 8th edition. pCR will be defined as the absence of any viable tumor cells within the pathologic specimen.
1 year
Secondary Outcomes (7)
Number of Participants with Treatment Related Adverse Events as Assessed CTCAE version 5.0.
90 Days
Number of Participants with Treatment Related Adverse Events as Assessed CTCAE version 5.0.
1 year
Duration of treatment with goal of >80% of cases treated within 90 minutes
7 weeks
Number of treatment fractions that would have resulted in unacceptably high dose (exceeding constraint) to an OAR without MR-image guided radiation.
5 Weeks
Progression Free Survival
irst date of protocol therapy to the earliest date of disease progression per RECIST criteria or death due to any cause up to 12 Months

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Participants must have histologically or cytologically confirmed malignancy requiring radiation
- Age 18 years of older
- ECOG performance status ≤2 (Karnofsky ≥60%, see Appendix A)
- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
- Any further criteria listed in the specific disease site cohort
You may not qualify if:
- History of allergic reactions attributed to gadolinium-based IV contrast
- \-- Note: If patient will not receive contrast, this is not applicable and kidney function will not affect eligibility
- Severe claustrophobia or anxiety
- Participants who cannot undergo an MRI
