This early-stage trial tests VT3989 in people with specific advanced (metastatic or unresectable) cancers. It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth in patients who fit the genetic or diagnosis-specific requirements.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04681469RecruitingPhase 2
Niraparib plus immunotherapy for HPV-negative head and neck cancer
This Phase 2 study tests a cancer “induction then maintenance” plan using a PARP inhibitor (niraparib) along with immunotherapy (TSR-042) in people with HPV-negative head and neck squamous cell cancer. If it works, it may improve control of the cancer after surgery by boosting the immune system and targeting cancer cells’ DNA repair.
BresciaAges 18 years+ - NCT04683315RecruitingPhase 2
Pancreatic cancer biopsy-guided chemo before surgery
This trial uses a special gene test on fluid taken from an endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) biopsy to help choose chemotherapy before surgery for pancreas cancer. It aims to see if this approach improves outcomes by matching treatment to the tumor’s RNA pattern.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04686682RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for adults with advanced cancers or AML
This early study (Phase 1/2) tests a new medicine (JAB-8263) in adults with advanced solid tumors or recurrent/refractory AML. It aims to find a safe dose and see whether it can shrink tumors or control the cancer.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04708587Recruiting
Choosing the right anti-platelet duration for advanced kidney disease
This study looks at the best length of anti-platelet medicine (which helps prevent stent clots) after a new type of heart stent. It specifically focuses on people with advanced chronic kidney disease, where bleeding and clot risks can be higher.
SeoulAges 19–84 - NCT04723316Recruiting
Tumor testing to guide targeted cancer treatment
This trial looks at your tumor (and blood) to find helpful targets so doctors can match you to an experimental targeted therapy, if one fits. It may help by using detailed “tumor profiling” to choose treatments more precisely for your cancer.
BelfastAges 16 years+ - NCT04763980Recruiting
Health coaching to help Black men get prostate germline genetic testing
This study tests a community health coach to help Black men with prostate cancer understand and access genetic testing that looks for inherited cancer risk. It may help you talk with your care team about testing and reduce barriers to getting results.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04768322Recruiting
LVAD versus standard heart failure medicines in advanced patients
This trial compares an LVAD device (a pump placed in the chest) plus medicines versus medicines alone for people with advanced, end-stage heart failure. It aims to see which approach works better to help patients live and stay out of the hospital.
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT04792502RecruitingPhase 2
Mosunetuzumab plus lenalidomide for untreated follicular or marginal lymphoma
This Phase 2 study tests whether mosunetuzumab, added to lenalidomide, can treat people who have not yet received lymphoma medicines. It’s for follicular lymphoma or marginal zone lymphoma and may help shrink tumors and improve control of the disease.
