Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT05292742RecruitingPhase 2
Continue targeted breast cancer therapy or switch to a new combo
This Phase 2 study compares two treatment plans after breast surgery when cancer did not fully disappear before surgery. It tests whether adding trastuzumab, pyrotinib, and capecitabine works better than continuing the original targeted therapy.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT04875585RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant and post-surgery immunotherapy for operable lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of medicines given before surgery and immunotherapy after surgery for resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It aims to shrink the tumor before the operation and reduce the risk of cancer coming back after surgery.
Innsbruck, TyrolAges 18 years+ - NCT05536505RecruitingPhase 2
After-surgery targeted pill to prevent relapse in EGFR lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether an EGFR-targeted pill, given after surgery, can reduce the chance of lung cancer coming back. It specifically looks at people whose tumors have certain EGFR changes and where “minimal residual disease” (tiny leftover cancer) is being used to guide treatment.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT04280822RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy plus chemo versus chemo alone before surgery
This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding immunotherapy to chemotherapy before surgery works better than chemotherapy alone for resectable esophageal cancer. The goal is to improve outcomes after tumor shrinkage before the operation.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–75 - NCT05692674RecruitingPhase 2
Proton radiation after breast surgery with implant reconstruction
This trial studies a type of radiation made with proton beams given after mastectomy and implant reconstruction to lower breast cancer coming back. It’s for people who need additional (adjuvant) radiation and have not had prior radiation to the chest or breast.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05731258Recruiting
Watch how liposomal doxorubicin is used after breast cancer
This is an observational study that follows people receiving add-on (adjuvant) chemotherapy after primary breast cancer. It aims to understand treatment patterns and outcomes for patients healthy enough to receive liposomal doxorubicin and who have no major complications.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - 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 - NCT05872724RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized add-on treatment after cervical cancer surgery
This study tests whether a tailored “extra” treatment after surgery—guided by a lab test called minimal residual disease (MRD)—can reduce the risk of cervical cancer coming back. It focuses on people with certain stages of cervical cancer who can follow the treatment plan and study follow-up.
