Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06121700RecruitingPhase 2
Chemoimmunotherapy and radiation before surgery for limited spread stomach cancer
This trial tests combining chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiation before surgery for stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has spread to a limited number of sites. The goal is to see if this approach can improve outcomes by shrinking tumors before they are removed.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06748677Recruiting
Nipple-sparing mastectomy with robotic help and implant reconstruction
This trial tests a newer, less invasive way to remove breast tissue while keeping the nipple and skin, using robotic or endoscopic tools. It then rebuilds the breast with an implant wrapped in a non-biological mesh. The goal is to see how well patients recover and how they feel about the results.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT04215731RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo plus targeted drug before surgery for high-risk rectal cancer
This trial tests giving chemotherapy (mFOLFOXIRI) plus bevacizumab before surgery for rectal cancer that has higher-risk features. It aims to shrink or control the cancer early to improve outcomes after treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06449937Recruiting
Local liver treatment for colorectal cancer that has spread
This trial tests whether treating liver tumors with surgery or ablation can help people whose colorectal cancer has spread to the liver and other organs. It may be an option if you've had only 1 or 2 types of chemotherapy and your non-liver metastases are stable.
Chuzhou, AnhuiAges 18–80 - NCT07741435Recruiting
Simple blood, urine, and saliva test to find cancer early
This study tests a new way to find cancer by looking at DNA in blood, urine, and saliva. It may help detect cancer earlier and monitor how well treatment works.
Bogotá, Bogota D.C.Ages 18 years+ - NCT05984810RecruitingPhase 2
Using a glowing dye to help see pancreatic cancer during surgery
This trial tests whether a special dye (SGM-101) can help surgeons see remaining cancer cells during surgery for pancreatic cancer that has been treated before surgery. It may lead to more complete removal of the tumor.
LeidenAges 18 years+ - NCT06339060RecruitingPhase 3
Chemoradiation and immunotherapy to save the esophagus
This trial tests whether adding immunotherapy to standard chemoradiation (chemotherapy plus radiation) can help preserve the esophagus and avoid surgery in people with resectable esophageal cancer. It aims to see if this combination is safer and more effective than current treatment.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06468280RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy and chemo with surgery for limited-spread stomach cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 antibody) plus chemotherapy or targeted therapy, followed by surgery, for people with stomach cancer that has spread to a limited number of other sites. The goal is to see if this approach can help shrink the cancer enough to make surgery more effective.
