MannheimAges 18 years+ - NCT04597294RecruitingPhase 3
Preventive pre-op HIPEC for advanced stomach cancer
This Phase 3 trial studies whether adding a heated chemotherapy procedure during surgery (HIPEC) before the main cancer treatment can lower the chance that stomach cancer returns in the belly. It is for people with advanced stomach cancer who are at higher risk of cancer coming back in the peritoneum (the lining of the abdomen).
Krakow, Lesser Poland VoivodshipAges 18–75 - 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 - NCT04752826RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing BI-1808 plus Keytruda for advanced cancers
This trial tests a new cancer medicine (BI-1808) either alone or together with Keytruda (pembrolizumab) in people with advanced cancers. It may help by strengthening the immune system’s attack on cancer, especially if standard treatments are no longer working or aren’t suitable.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04806464RecruitingPhase 1
Study drug injection for advanced liver cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests VG161, a study medicine, given by injection into liver or nearby tumors for people with advanced primary liver cancer that has not responded to standard treatment (or there is no standard option). The goal is to find a safe dose and see how the tumors respond.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT04817956RecruitingPhase 2
Precision-medicine treatment for advanced cancer in Norway
This Phase 2 trial tries to match people with advanced cancer to targeted treatments based on their tumor’s genetic results. It may help if standard cancer treatments are no longer working or aren’t available, and if a “target” in the tumor suggests a therapy that could work.
ÅlesundAges 16 years+ - NCT04823923Recruiting
How kidney failure affects drug levels in metastatic kidney cancer
This study looks at how chronic kidney failure changes the amount of certain cancer medicines in the blood. It involves people with metastatic clear cell kidney cancer who take pazopanib or cabozantinib, and compares drug levels in different kidney function groups.
MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT04852588Recruiting
Sample chest lymph nodes during treatment for advanced lung cancer
This study checks lymph nodes in the chest (using a camera-guided test) in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who are getting curative-intent radiation. The trial may help doctors better confirm how far the cancer has spread and guide the best radiation treatment plan.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04861584RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemo before bladder surgery for advanced cancer
This trial studies giving toripalimab (an immunotherapy) together with gemcitabine and cisplatin before bladder surgery. It aims to shrink locally advanced bladder cancer and make surgery more effective by using the immune system and chemotherapy together.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT04927416RecruitingPhase 2
Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT scan in metastatic thyroid cancer
This study tests whether a specific special scan (68-Gallium DOTATATE PET/CT) can help doctors better see where thyroid cancer has spread. It focuses on certain types of thyroid cancer and compares how well the scan images metastases.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–98 - NCT04943484Recruiting
ICG camera dye test during surgery for advanced stomach cancer
This trial tests whether an “ICG” dye and special camera can help surgeons see cancer more clearly during surgery for advanced stomach cancer. It may help improve how safely and accurately surgeons remove the tumor and nearby lymph nodes.
