Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05365035RecruitingPhase 2
Phase 2 trial for high-risk blood cancers with timed chemo
This study tests a mix of medicines (cladribine, low-dose cytarabine, and venetoclax) alternated with azacitidine and venetoclax to treat higher-risk CMML or MDS after prior treatment or when standard treatment may not work well. It may help by improving blood counts and controlling the disease.
Houston, TexasAges 18 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 - NCT05366179RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized CAR-T therapy for recurring brain tumor
This Phase 1 study tests a personalized immune-cell treatment (CAR-T) made from your own cells to attack a marker called B7-H3 on recurring glioblastoma. It may help shrink or control the tumor, but the main goal is to check safety and how the treatment works.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05366478RecruitingPhase 1
LM103 for advanced solid tumors using donated immune cells
This Phase 1 study tests LM103 to treat advanced cancers that are not responding to standard treatment. It also looks at whether enough tumor tissue can be collected for immune cell testing, and focuses on safety at first.
TianjinAges 18 years+ - NCT05366699Recruiting
Procedure to help prevent arm swelling after breast surgery
This trial studies a new procedure meant to lower the chance of getting lymphedema (arm swelling) after breast cancer surgery that removes lymph nodes in the armpit. It may help patients reduce the risk of long-term arm swelling, especially after lymph node dissection.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT05369429Recruiting
Stress and mood support program for adults with cancer
This trial tests a new online “wellbeing guide” to help manage stress and improve quality of life. It focuses on adults with cancer who also have higher-than-usual depressive symptoms.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05370079Recruiting
Control group for people with specific serious illnesses
This trial includes a “control” group of people with certain diseases to compare outcomes against another group. If you qualify, you may receive the standard approach used in usual care rather than the experimental treatment.
BronAges 18 years+ - NCT05371756Recruiting
Bio sample collection study for people at risk of cancer
This study collects blood (and other biospecimens) to look for immune and molecular markers that may help explain cancer risk or response to treatment. If you’re an adult whose provider thinks you could develop cancer, or who has confirmed/suspected cancer, you may be asked for samples and consent to help researchers.
College Station, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05375617Recruiting
Study for newly diagnosed childhood cancers in Europe
This study follows children and teens with newly diagnosed certain leukemia (ALL) and certain favorable brain tumors to learn best care and outcomes. It may help your team compare standard treatments and monitor health over time.
