- NCT03748485Recruiting
Chemo after surgery for certain stage III colon cancer
This trial studies whether adding chemotherapy after surgery helps people with colon cancer that was diagnosed before surgery as stage III and later found to be without certain high-risk features. It may help lower the chance the cancer comes back, but you must meet specific surgery and health criteria.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05954078RecruitingPhase 3
ctDNA-guided chemotherapy after colon cancer surgery
This trial checks whether a special blood test (ctDNA methylation) can help decide the best chemotherapy after surgery for people at higher risk of colon cancer coming back. It may help spare some patients unnecessary treatment while aiming to improve outcomes for those likely to relapse.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06914440RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation and immunotherapy before surgery for HR+/HER2- breast cancer
This trial is testing a new treatment approach for patients with a certain type of breast cancer (HR+/HER2-). It combines radiation therapy with chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug before the patient's main surgery, to see if it can shrink or eliminate the tumor more effectively.
Xi'an, Shannxi ProvinceAges 18–75 - NCT05286957RecruitingPhase 2
MRD-guided immunotherapy plus chemo after lung cancer surgery
This trial tests whether adding a cancer-fighting immunotherapy (tislelizumab) and chemotherapy after surgery can lower the chance of lung cancer coming back. It uses “MRD” (measurable remaining disease) to help decide who may benefit the most after resection.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–80 - NCT06476119Recruiting
Optimizing treatment for low stage triple-negative breast cancer with high immune cells
This trial tests whether people with early stage triple-negative breast cancer and a high level of immune cells in the tumor can safely skip chemotherapy after surgery. It aims to find a less intensive treatment option for those who may not need strong drugs.
Sittard-Geleen, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05862064RecruitingPhase 3
Adding an immune drug and anti-blood-vessel treatment to chemo
This study tests whether adding an immune therapy (a PD-1 antibody) plus a blood-vessel–blocking treatment to standard chemo improves outcomes for people with surgically treated triple-negative breast cancer. Everyone gets chemotherapy, but some will also get the added drugs to try to reduce cancer coming back.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06829797RecruitingPhase 2
Iparomlimab and chemotherapy vs chemotherapy alone for stomach cancer
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab, combined as QL1706) to standard chemotherapy before surgery works better than chemotherapy alone for people with locally advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that can be surgically removed.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT06427447RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo with or without radiation after pancreatic cancer surgery
This trial compares adding radiation to chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone after surgery for pancreatic cancer. It is for people whose cancer had certain high-risk features found during surgery, and who have not yet started additional treatment.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05534087RecruitingPhase 3
Blood test guided chemo after colon cancer surgery
This study tests whether giving additional (adjuvant) chemotherapy based on a special blood test—circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)—can lower the risk of colon cancer coming back. It targets people with stage II–III colon cancer whose blood test is positive for minimal residual disease (MRD) after completing standard chemo.
BusanAges 19–75 - NCT05735145RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo plus radiation, then extra chemo for advanced cervical cancer
This Phase 3 study looks at whether adding chemotherapy after standard chemo-radiation can improve outcomes for advanced cervical cancer. You might be eligible if your cancer responded fully to initial treatment and you meet safety and health requirements.
Liuzhou, GuangxiAges 18–75 - NCT07188025RecruitingPhase 3
Cancer DNA test to guide chemo after rectal cancer surgery
This trial tests whether checking for tumor DNA in your blood after surgery can help decide if you need additional chemotherapy. If the test finds cancer DNA, you may get chemo to lower the risk of the cancer coming back.
's-HertogenboschAges 18 years+ - NCT07562659RecruitingPhase 2
Blood Test to Guide Chemotherapy After Colon Cancer Surgery
This study helps doctors decide whether you need chemotherapy after colon cancer surgery by checking for cancer DNA in your blood. The goal is to give chemotherapy only to patients who truly need it, based on what the blood test shows.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT04733820RecruitingPhase 3
Extra chemo after surgery for advanced cervical cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding chemotherapy after surgery helps people with locally advanced cervical cancer, especially when prior treatment didn’t fully match standard guidelines. It looks at whether this “adjuvant” chemotherapy improves outcomes after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and an extensive hysterectomy.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–70 - NCT06642441Recruiting
Vitamin D for reducing chemotherapy side effects in breast cancer
This trial tests whether taking vitamin D supplements can reduce side effects from chemotherapy in people with breast cancer. It is for patients with low vitamin D levels who are about to start their first chemotherapy treatment.
Xining, QinghaiAges 18–80 - NCT01935778RecruitingPhase 3
Extra chemo after stomach cancer surgery: compare two drug plans
This Phase 3 trial tests which combination of chemotherapy works better after surgery for stage IIIB/IV stomach or stomach–esophagus junction adenocarcinoma. Participants get randomized to one of two chemotherapy plans to see which helps people live longer and/or prevents cancer from coming back.
SeoulAges 20–75 - NCT06609551RecruitingPhase 3
ctDNA-guided chemo choice for elderly colon cancer patients
This trial tests whether using a ctDNA blood test can help choose the best chemotherapy after colon cancer surgery for people aged 70–80. It aims to make treatment more personalized and reduce side effects.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 70–80 - NCT05879926RecruitingPhase 3
Testing chemo after hormone therapy in premenopausal early breast cancer
This Phase 3 trial checks whether adding chemotherapy after standard hormone-blocking treatment works better for some premenopausal women with early-stage, ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer. It targets patients with limited lymph node spread and a lower-to-intermediate tumor “recurrence” risk score.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–60 - NCT05595408Recruiting
Tracking tumor DNA to predict relapse after upper kidney cancer surgery
This study checks tumor DNA found in blood and urine to see who is at higher risk of the cancer coming back after surgery. It may help doctors identify “minimal residual disease,” meaning tiny amounts of cancer that can remain after treatment.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06120374Recruiting
Immunotherapy plus radiation after surgery for upper tract cancer
This trial compares combining immunotherapy with radiation versus standard chemotherapy for patients with high-risk upper urinary tract cancer after surgery. It aims to see if the new combination works better at preventing cancer from coming back.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05496491Recruiting
Before-surgery radiation and chemo for rectal cancer
This study tests a specific “before surgery” treatment (radiation plus chemotherapy), followed by more chemotherapy to improve outcomes in people with certain types of rectal cancer. You might be considered if your cancer is locally advanced but not spread to distant organs.
LarissaAges 18–80 - NCT07010419RecruitingPhase 3
Firmonertinib vs placebo for early-stage lung cancer with rare EGFR mutations
This trial tests if Firmonertinib, a targeted pill, can prevent lung cancer from returning after surgery in people with non-small cell lung cancer that has certain uncommon EGFR gene changes. If you have had complete tumor removal and have one of these specific mutations, this study may help you stay cancer-free longer.
