Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT07638410Recruiting
Getting fit before major cancer surgery
This trial tests whether special preparation exercises and wellness support before chemotherapy and major abdominal or pelvic surgery can help you recover better and stay stronger. You'll work with a team including exercise specialists and mental health counselors before your operation.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06165419RecruitingPhase 2
High-dose radiation for spine metastases from solid tumors
This trial tests a new way of giving high-dose radiation to solid tumors that have spread to the spine. It is for people whose spine is stable, have not had prior treatment to that area, and have only minor weakness (if any).
Stony Brook, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07322263RecruitingPhase 2
Gemcitabine and docetaxel for bladder cancer that returned after BCG
This trial tests a combination of two chemotherapy drugs (gemcitabine and docetaxel) given directly into the bladder to treat high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer that has come back or not responded to BCG therapy. It's for people who cannot or choose not to have their bladder removed.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–99 - NCT05984485RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery vs chemo before surgery for low-risk rectal cancer
This trial compares two approaches for low-risk locally advanced rectal cancer: going straight to surgery (TME) versus receiving chemotherapy before surgery. The goal is to see if upfront surgery works just as well, sparing patients from chemotherapy side effects.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06587789Recruiting
Ribociclib plus hormone therapy for high-risk breast cancer
This trial tests adding ribociclib (a targeted pill) to standard hormone therapy for people with early but high-risk HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer, after surgery.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–80 - NCT07587268Recruiting
Understanding Your Appendiceal Cancer Through Genetic Testing
This research study uses genetic and molecular testing on archived tumor samples to better understand appendiceal cancer and predict how it may progress. The goal is to help doctors personalize treatment plans based on the specific characteristics of your cancer.
Durate, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07537491Recruiting
AI tool to predict surgery outcomes in colorectal cancer
This study uses artificial intelligence to analyze tissue samples from your colorectal cancer surgery to help predict how you'll recover and what your long-term outlook might be. Researchers will examine your tumor tissue under a microscope to build a computer model that could help doctors personalize your care plan.
Brandenburg an der HavelAges 18 years+ - NCT07282808Recruiting
Focal vs. full prostate treatment study
This trial tests whether targeting only the visible cancer spots on MRI (focal therapy) works as well as treating the whole prostate, for men with small, moderate-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread.
SingaporeAges 21 years+ - NCT07179744Recruiting
Skipping radiation for low-risk node-positive breast cancer
This trial tests whether some women with low-risk breast cancer that has spread to a few lymph nodes can safely skip radiation therapy after surgery. It aims to reduce side effects while keeping the cancer from coming back.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06856694Recruiting
Feedback tool to help men with prostate cancer decide on treatment
This trial tests a computer tool that analyzes your conversations with doctors. It aims to help you make a more informed choice about prostate cancer treatment.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06787339RecruitingPhase 2
Capecitabine for low-risk triple negative breast cancer
This trial tests whether a chemotherapy pill called capecitabine can help people with low-risk triple negative breast cancer after surgery. It is for patients with stage I disease who have certain features that suggest a lower chance of recurrence.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06658782Recruiting
MRI vs ultrasound for liver cancer detection in high-risk people
This trial compares two types of scans to see which detects liver cancer better in people at high risk. You would receive either an MRI with contrast or an ultrasound every 6 months to monitor for liver cancer.
Oxford, OxonAges 18 years+ - NCT05179889RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
