SingaporeAges 21–90 - 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.
GoyangAges 19–75 - NCT05593458RecruitingPhase 3
Stomach cancer surgery before chemo: artery-based or drip chemo
This trial compares two ways of giving chemotherapy before surgery for locally advanced stomach or stomach–esophagus cancer: chemo sent through an artery versus chemo given through an IV line. It also studies adding PD-1 immunotherapy to see which approach works better and is safer.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - 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+ - 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 - NCT05760612RecruitingPhase 3
After breast cancer surgery, test neratinib plus trastuzumab
This trial studies whether adding neratinib to standard trastuzumab treatment after neoadjuvant (before-surgery) therapy lowers the risk of breast cancer coming back. It is for people whose breast cancer is hormone-receptor positive and HER2 positive, with residual cancer found after neoadjuvant treatment.
GuangzhouAges 18–70 - NCT05790889RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of an experimental malaria vaccine in babies in Burkina Faso
This Phase 1/2 study tests a new vaccine meant to protect young children against malaria. If you qualify, your baby would get the study vaccine and be followed for about 12 months to check safety and early signs of protection.
