Bordeaux, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT04725903Recruiting
Proton beam radiation for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests proton radiation therapy for people with high-risk prostate cancer. It may help by delivering radiation in a more targeted way, with the goal of controlling the cancer while reducing exposure to nearby healthy tissue.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07382557Recruiting
Lung cancer screening decision aid for high-risk patients
This study tests a tool to help people decide about lung cancer screening. It is for current or former smokers who have a family history of smoking and lung cancer.
Houston, TexasAges 50–80 - NCT06873555RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a new drug for ovarian cancer and other advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug (DC05F01) for people with ovarian cancer that has come back after platinum treatment, or for those with other advanced solid tumors that haven't responded to standard therapies. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT06515613RecruitingPhase 1
Testing CTIM-76 for recurrent ovarian and other advanced cancers
This trial tests a new drug, CTIM-76, in people whose ovarian, testicular, or endometrial cancer has come back and is not responding to standard treatments. It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or stop them from growing.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT05595590RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus immunotherapy for recurrent head and neck cancer
This study tests whether adding an immunotherapy medicine called tislelizumab to radiation can better control recurrent (coming back) head and neck squamous cell cancer. It is aimed at people whose cancer can’t be fully removed by surgery or can’t be safely removed.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT05946824RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation for prostate cancer that returned after surgery
This trial tests a new way of delivering radiation for prostate cancer that has come back after prostate surgery. It may help control the cancer by targeting the “prostate bed” area or nearby lymph nodes where it returned.
