Blood test study to spot early cancer signal and cancer leftovers
This observational study checks whether a blood test (a “cfDNA” test) can detect early signs of cancer or small amounts of cancer left after treatment. It may help doctors use a simple blood sample to improve cancer detection and follow-up.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 40 years+ - NCT06172478RecruitingPhase 2
HER3-DXd for advanced solid tumors after prior treatment
This trial tests a new targeted drug called HER3-DXd for people with several types of advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments.

Personalized tumor research for bladder, lung, stomach, and liver cancers
This study uses a small sample of your tumor to grow it in the lab, which may help researchers understand your cancer better and find treatments that work for you.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 21–100 - NCT06682728RecruitingPhase 2
Treating high-risk bladder cancer after surgery
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (sacituzumab govitecan and nivolumab) given after surgery to prevent the return of muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It is for patients whose cancer has a high chance of coming back despite surgery.
