Stamford, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT04485013RecruitingPhase 1
Study drug TTX-080 for advanced colorectal cancer
This Phase 1 study tests TTX-080, a drug designed to block a cancer immune “signal” (HLA-G) to help the body fight advanced colorectal cancer. It mainly checks safety and how the treatment works in people with cancer that has spread.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04486833RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Genetic-targeted drug plus gene medicine for EGFR lung cancer
This trial studies a gene-based treatment added to osimertinib (a targeted lung cancer pill) for advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer that has started growing again on osimertinib. It may help by attacking the cancer with both its usual target treatment and an added genetic approach.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04489342Recruiting
Tests sensor-based movement assessment in axial spondyloarthritis patients
This trial studies an advanced “sensor-based” way to assess how your spine and hips move in people with axial spondyloarthritis. It may help researchers better measure function and choose/monitor treatment, especially for those considered for biologic therapy.
Londonderry, N.IrelandAges 18–80 - NCT04495088RecruitingPhase 3
Before vs after chemotherapy for locally advanced rectal cancer
This Phase 3 study compares giving chemotherapy before rectal surgery versus giving it after surgery, using a tailored plan based on your risk. The goal is to see which timing helps more people with locally advanced rectal cancer stay cancer-free and live longer.
MannheimAges 18 years+ - NCT04512755Recruiting
AIMS medical outcomes study for new or established patients
This is an observational study where the AIMS team collects information from patients during a first visit or ongoing care. It helps the clinic understand patients’ experiences and outcomes, but it does not test a new medicine.
