HelsinkiAges 18–75 - NCT04270591RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Glumetinib for lung cancer with MET changes
This trial tests how well glumetinib works for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has specific “MET” gene changes. It also checks safety and side effects, especially in people who can’t have surgery or have already had other treatments.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 18–80 - NCT04299191RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
LAM561 for children with advanced brain or solid tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests a medicine called LAM561 in children whose cancer is advanced and not responding to standard treatment. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and can shrink or control tumors in this setting.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges Up to 18 years - NCT04299581RecruitingPhase 2
Freezing treatment plus immunotherapy for advanced bile-duct cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether freezing part of the liver tumor (cryoablation) combined with an immunotherapy drug called anti–PD-1 can shrink advanced bile-duct cancer that can’t be removed by surgery. It may help control the cancer after prior treatments have stopped working.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT04299646RecruitingPhase 2
Stereotactic radiation for limited spread in kidney cancer
This trial tests whether targeted, high-precision radiation (stereotactic radiotherapy) can control a small number of growing kidney cancer metastases while you continue systemic treatment. It may help people who have “oligoprogressive” disease, where only 1–3 spots are getting worse.
AlbiAges 18 years+ - NCT04305548RecruitingPhase 2
Trabectedin for advanced mesenchymal chondrosarcoma with a specific gene fusion
This trial tests trabectedin, a chemotherapy medicine, for people with advanced mesenchymal chondrosarcoma that carries a specific gene fusion (HEY1-NCOA2). It’s designed for cases that have worsened despite prior chemotherapy, aiming to shrink tumors or control disease.
Prato, FirenzeAges 16 years+ - NCT04318730RecruitingPhase 2
Study of immunotherapy plus targeted drug for adrenal cancer
This trial tests whether combining camrelizumab (an immune treatment) with apatinib (a targeted drug) can shrink recurrent or metastatic adrenal cancer after standard treatment didn’t work. It may help some people control tumor growth when other treatments have already been tried.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT04324151Recruiting
Pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy for lung cancer that may be removed
This trial tests whether adding pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) to standard chemotherapy helps people with certain non-squamous lung cancers that doctors think might be surgically removed. You might be considered if your planned treatment involves a “double platinum” chemotherapy or crizotinib and your cancer is potentially resectable.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT04332874RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab with local limb chemotherapy for sarcoma in arms or legs
This trial tests whether giving pembrolizumab along with chemotherapy delivered directly into an arm or leg (isolated limb infusion) can shrink sarcoma tumors. It is for people with advanced or metastatic sarcoma in an arm or leg who can safely have this local treatment.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 12 years+ - NCT04339218RecruitingPhase 3
Cryoablation plus pembrolizumab and chemotherapy for lung cancer spread
