Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06248996RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a stronger radiation schedule for large head and neck cancers
This trial tests whether giving a slightly different schedule of radiation (more frequent, smaller doses) can improve treatment for people with large head and neck cancers. It is for patients who are getting radiation as their main treatment, sometimes with chemotherapy as well.
GävleAges 18–100 - NCT04724928RecruitingPhase 2
PET-CT scan to guide bladder cancer treatment decisions
This Phase 2 study checks whether an FDG PET-CT scan can help doctors better predict bladder cancer risk and adjust treatment. You may still get standard bladder cancer care, but the study uses the scan results to help decide how aggressive treatment should be.
GhentAges 18 years+ - NCT07475026RecruitingPhase 3
Combination therapy before surgery for high-risk liver cancer
This trial tests whether a combination of two drugs (tislelizumab and lenvatinib) given before surgery can lower the risk of liver cancer coming back in people with early-stage but high-risk disease.
TianjinAges 18–75 - NCT06287034Recruiting
Free flap surgery after total laryngectomy for laryngeal cancer
This trial tests whether using a free or pedicled tissue flap during total laryngectomy reduces the risk of a pharyngocutaneous fistula (an abnormal opening between the throat and skin). It is for people whose laryngeal cancer came back after radiation or chemoradiation.
Rome, RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT06192316Recruiting
Testing how nicotine product claims affect appeal and use
This study looks at how different claims about nicotine products affect people's interest and use. It involves both young adults who don't use tobacco and adult tobacco users, but all must not have used oral nicotine pouches recently.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–65 - NCT07104214Recruiting
Predicting stomach retention risk before sedated endoscopy
This study is building a tool to predict if a patient's stomach will empty normally before a sedated upper endoscopy (gastroscopy). It tests risk factors that help doctors plan safer procedures.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT03383575RecruitingPhase 2
Azacitidine plus enasidenib for IDH2-mutant MDS
