New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05533983Recruiting
Stool transplant plus nivolumab for advanced solid cancers
This study tests whether transferring stool microbiome (“FMT,” stool transplant) along with nivolumab can improve outcomes in people with advanced solid cancers that kept worsening even after anti–PD-1/PD-L1 treatment. It also looks at stool and blood changes to understand why the treatment might work.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05366153Recruiting
Plan to lower future heart attack risk after past cancer treatment
This trial tests whether a “risk-guided” care plan can help prevent coronary artery disease (the buildup that can lead to heart attacks) in people who had cancer treatment that can affect the heart. You may get closer heart risk monitoring and guidance to reduce risk factors, such as cholesterol—especially if you can safely take statins.
Hobart, TasmaniaAges 40–70 - NCT05703971RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Maintenance treatment with a gene therapy plus atezolizumab
This Phase 1/2 trial tests whether a gene therapy called Reqorsa given with atezolizumab can help people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) stay controlled after their first chemo. It may help by boosting the immune system to keep the cancer from growing again.
Lone Tree, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT05583708RecruitingPhase 2
Trial tests targeted radiation plus immunotherapy after anti–PD-1 failure
This Phase 2 trial studies whether peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (targeted radiation) combined with immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) can shrink Merkel cell cancer after it has grown despite anti–PD-1/L1 treatment. It may help people whose cancer has specific receptors that make them eligible for the targeted radiation.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05324553Recruiting
Using patient tumor samples to build lab models
This study uses tumor tissue from real patients to create lab models that can help researchers test treatments. You might be able to join if you need a biopsy or surgery for care and it’s safe to collect a small amount of tissue for research.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05316935RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Hormone therapy for certain early uterine lining cancers without obesity
This trial tests whether adding GnRH medicine and letrozole to standard progestin treatment can better control early, low-risk endometrial cancer or atypical hyperplasia in people who are not obese. It may help some patients avoid progression while keeping the uterus, especially for those wanting future fertility.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–45 - NCT05226169RecruitingPhase 3
Iron medicine plus standard therapy for advanced stomach cancer
This Phase 3 study tests whether giving ferric carboxymaltose (an IV iron treatment) helps people with advanced stomach or stomach–esophagus cancer and iron-deficiency anemia. The goal is to improve safety and how well the standard first-line cancer treatment works.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05231122RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab and bevacizumab for recurrent ovarian cancer
This trial studies whether adding pembrolizumab to bevacizumab (and sometimes an anti-CD40 drug) can help control recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. It also looks at whether the treatment can shrink tumors and keep them from growing for longer.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05170919Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Olanzapine vs mirtazapine for weight loss in advanced cancer
