Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 17–45 - NCT05649865Recruiting
Monitor HPV DNA in throat cancer to guide early response
This study checks a substance called HPV DNA in your blood to see how your HPV-positive throat cancer responds early during treatment. It may help doctors spot who is responding well and who may need closer attention sooner.
Lund, Skåne CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT05651828RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Tested adaptive dosing of vismodegib for advanced skin cancer
This trial tests an adaptive (adjusted) dosing plan using vismodegib for people with advanced basal cell carcinoma. It may help control the cancer while balancing side effects, and your team will closely monitor how your tumors respond.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05653388Recruiting
Study biomarker testing in metastatic leiomyosarcoma
This trial looks at lab markers (biomarkers) in tumor samples from people with leiomyosarcoma that has spread or can’t be fully removed. It also enrolls people who are receiving certain first-line chemotherapy, and your results may help guide future treatment decisions.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT05654675Recruiting
Scan method study for measuring tumor sugar use on PET
This study checks whether a specific analysis method (called FUR) can better measure how much “sugar” from PET scans is used by tumors. It uses regular PET/CT scans you may already get as part of standard care, and compares how the measurements work.
Maastricht, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05655494Recruiting
Helping underrepresented people find cancer clinical trials
This study tests an approach to help people from groups historically underrepresented in cancer trials learn about and connect to clinical trials. It may help you get easier, more personal ways to be contacted about research options.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–100 - NCT05655780Recruiting
Irinotecan care guided by tumor genes and gut bacteria
This study looks at whether a patient’s tumor genetic makeup and gut bacteria activity can predict how well irinotecan-based treatment works and what side effects they might have. It may help personalize treatment to improve survival and quality of life for people with metastatic or unresectable colon cancer.
Maastricht, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05655949RecruitingPhase 2
Y-90 radiation plus immunotherapy and chemo for bile duct cancer
This trial studies whether combining Y-90 liver radiation with an immunotherapy drug (durvalumab) and chemo (gemcitabine and cisplatin) can better control locally advanced or metastatic intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer in the liver). It may help shrink tumors and slow disease growth, depending on how well the treatment works for your cancer type and overall health.
