Predicting cancer return after penis-sparing surgery for penile cancer
This study looks at how often penile cancer comes back after low-risk, penis-sparing surgery and how that affects long-term health. It may help doctors understand which patients need closer follow-up.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT05189054Recruiting
Radiation retreatment for very central chest tumors
This trial tests a focused form of radiation (SBRT) to treat tumors in the very center of the chest that have already been treated with radiation before. It aims to check safety and whether the tumor can be controlled without causing unacceptable side effects.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06258642Recruiting
Irinotecan liposome plus anlotinib for SCLC after first chemo
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—irinotecan liposome (a chemotherapy) and anlotinib (a targeted therapy)—as a second treatment for small cell lung cancer that returned quickly after initial chemo. The goal is to see if this combo can work better than standard options.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06659146Recruiting
Heat therapy with standard palliative radiation for cancer
This trial tests whether adding heat therapy (using a special lamp) to standard palliative radiation can help treat superficial tumors or lymph nodes that cannot be cured. It aims to improve symptom relief or tumor control for people with advanced cancer.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06717919RecruitingPhase 4
Testing HOPE treatment to prevent liver cancer return after transplant
This study tests a special way of preserving donated livers, called HOPE, to see if it lowers the chance of liver cancer coming back after a liver transplant. If you have liver cancer and are waiting for a transplant, this trial might be an option for you.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07493928Recruiting
HPV testing after chemoradiation for cervical cancer
This trial checks if HPV is still present after standard radiation and chemo for cervical cancer. It may help see how well the treatment worked.
PragueAges 18 years+ - NCT06687070RecruitingPhase 1
APG-2449 alone or with PLD for advanced cancers
