Gainesville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06575257RecruitingPhase 2
Darolutamide and Hormone Therapy Before Prostate Surgery
This trial tests giving a new hormone-blocking drug (darolutamide) plus standard hormone therapy before surgery for men with high-risk prostate cancer that has not spread. The goal is to see if this approach improves outcomes.
Xi’an, ShanxiAges 18–75 - NCT06980103Recruiting
Decision aid for RAI in thyroid cancer
This trial offers a decision aid to help you choose whether to have radioactive iodine (RAI) treatment after thyroid cancer surgery. You may qualify if you have intermediate-risk thyroid cancer and haven't yet made a decision about RAI.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06990542RecruitingPhase 2
Focused radiation therapy for intermediate and high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests a more precise radiation therapy that targets tumors seen on MRI or special scans, aiming to treat prostate cancer while reducing side effects. It is for men who have not had prostate surgery or previous radiation to the area.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07112781Recruiting
Single dose radiation for early prostate cancer
This trial tests whether a single, high dose of radiation can treat low- to intermediate-risk prostate cancer. It may be a shorter and more convenient option for eligible patients.
MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT07116213Recruiting
Shorter radiation after surgery for high-risk endometrial cancer
This trial studies a new type of radiation therapy (called online adaptive radiotherapy) given in shorter, higher daily doses after surgery for high-risk endometrial cancer. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective for reducing side effects while still controlling the cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07188025RecruitingPhase 3
Cancer DNA test to guide chemo after rectal cancer surgery
This trial tests whether checking for tumor DNA in your blood after surgery can help decide if you need additional chemotherapy. If the test finds cancer DNA, you may get chemo to lower the risk of the cancer coming back.
's-HertogenboschAges 18 years+ - NCT07330323Recruiting
Custom skin cancer aftercare report study
This trial tests a personalized aftercare report for people with low-risk skin cancer. It aims to see if this report can improve follow-up care.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 18–80 - NCT01492972RecruitingPhase 3
Lighter radiation, with or without hormone suppression
This Phase 3 trial tests whether giving a smaller amount of radiation (“hypo-fractionated” means fewer, larger sessions) can work as well as standard approaches for intermediate-risk prostate cancer. It also compares adding hormone therapy (“androgen suppression”) to radiation versus using radiation alone.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07527689Recruiting
Faster vs. Standard Radiation After Breast Cancer Surgery
This study compares two radiation schedules for breast cancer patients at high risk of cancer returning in lymph nodes. Both use modern radiation therapy, but one delivers treatment faster (ultra-hypofractionated) while the other uses a more moderate schedule. The goal is to see which approach works better with fewer side effects.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT06804395Recruiting
Community cancer screening registry study
This study creates a registry to better understand and improve cancer screening for people at higher risk. By joining, you help researchers learn how to prevent and manage cancer in your community.
Totowa, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06116851Recruiting
Prostate health, gut bacteria, and cancer risk
This study looks at how your gut bacteria and prostate health may be connected to cancer risk. It may help find new ways to predict or prevent prostate cancer.
TurkuAges 18 years+ - NCT05006131Recruiting
Pancreatic cancer screening for people at higher risk
This study looks at how to screen the pancreas in people who are at increased risk for pancreatic cancer, using a set of risk guidelines. Screening may help find cancer (or early changes) sooner, when it may be easier to treat.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–90 - NCT07661927RecruitingPhase 2
Skipping hormone therapy for low-risk breast cancer
This trial tests whether women with very low-risk, early-stage breast cancer can safely skip hormone therapy after surgery. It is designed for women who are 60 or older and whose cancer shows no spread to lymph nodes and has favorable biology.
AngersAges 60 years+ - NCT07552584Recruiting
Blood test to screen for early lung cancer in COPD patients
This study uses an AI-powered blood test to identify people at high risk for lung cancer early, before symptoms appear. You'd be helping researchers see if this blood test can catch lung cancer sooner in people with COPD who have a smoking history.
VejleAges 50 years+ - NCT03280511RecruitingPhase 2
After surgery chemo sprayed into the abdomen for high-risk colon cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether spraying chemotherapy into the abdomen (through a small procedure) after colon cancer surgery can lower the chance the cancer comes back. It is meant for people with high-risk tumor features but who have had surgery and have no proven relapse yet.
OdenseAges 18 years+ - NCT07298096Recruiting
Vacuum thrombectomy for pulmonary embolism in cancer patients
This trial tests a computer-assisted vacuum device to remove blood clots from the lungs of people with cancer. It aims to see if this procedure is safe and improves quality of life for those with intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05762900RecruitingPhase 2
Shorter breast radiation after surgery for low-risk breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a shorter, focused radiation treatment after breast surgery, either alone or with an extra targeted boost. It’s for people with low-risk breast cancer and no spread to distant organs, aiming to keep results while reducing treatment time and side effects.
BeijingAges 35 years+ - NCT05740111Enrolling by invitation
Watching early for pancreatic cancer in people at high risk
This study tests a personalized “watch and check” plan to help find pancreatic cancer as early as possible in people with a strong family history or certain inherited gene changes. It may help doctors tailor how often you’re monitored based on your risk.
OsloAges 30–80 - NCT06492616RecruitingPhase 3
Elacestrant vs standard hormone therapy for high-risk early breast cancer
This trial tests a new hormone therapy pill (elacestrant) against standard hormone therapy for people with a common type of early breast cancer (ER+, HER2-) that has a higher chance of returning. You may qualify if you've already been on hormone therapy for 2 to 5 years and want to see if a different pill works better.
Daphne, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07505472RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Short radiation plus chemo and immunotherapy for high-risk rectal cancer
This trial tests a new approach for people with locally advanced rectal cancer that has high-risk features. It combines short-course radiation with chemotherapy (CapeOX) and the immunotherapy drug toripalimab, with or without another drug called surufatinib, before surgery. The goal is to see if adding these drugs helps shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Changchun, JilinAges 18–75 - NCT05604963Recruiting
Half or full thyroid surgery for low-risk thyroid cancer
This study looks at people with low-risk thyroid cancer who have already had (or are about to have) surgery, comparing half-thyroid removal versus full-thyroid removal. It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective surgery for your cancer type and risk level.
