ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT05751798RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test drug OSE-279 for advanced lung cancer that has no key mutations
This Phase 1/2 study tests how well and how safely OSE-279 works in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who cannot be cured with surgery or radiation. It also looks at the right dose and how it may help, especially if the tumor has high PD-L1.
AnderlechtAges 18 years+ - NCT05752136RecruitingPhase 3
Pre-surgery radiation plus immunotherapy and chemo for rectal cancer
This trial tests whether a short course of radiation before surgery, combined with the immunotherapy drug envafolimab and the chemo regimen CAPEOX, works better for shrinking locally advanced rectal cancer. It is aimed at people whose tumor is not “MMR-deficient” (it is pMMR/MSS), and it asks participants to be able to return for repeated checkups and treatments.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT05752448Recruiting
Care plan support for women after ovarian cancer treatment
This trial looks at survivorship care—how to help women after ovarian cancer treatment. It may improve follow-up planning and support during the first months after treatment ends.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05753722RecruitingPhase 1
First trial for PRTH-101 alone or with pembrolizumab
This early study tests PRTH-101, given by itself or with pembrolizumab, in people with advanced cancers that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if it is safe and how it affects the cancer.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05753839Recruiting
Testing surgery plus immunotherapy for metastatic kidney cancer
This trial studies whether removing the kidney tumor (cytoreductive nephrectomy) before treatment can improve outcomes for people with metastatic clear-cell kidney cancer. All participants are expected to receive standard immunotherapy (nivolumab plus ipilimumab), and the study focuses on the role of surgery in the “immuno-oncology era.”
SeoulAges 18 years+ - NCT05754203Recruiting
Radiation plus immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial studies whether a more intensive form of targeted radiation, combined with immunotherapy (immune checkpoint inhibitors), can work better and be safe for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. You may be considered if your tumor is limited in size and you’re able to receive both treatments.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05754892Recruiting
Using tumor lab markers during adrenal cancer care
This trial studies how to use lab tests (“molecular markers”) in routine clinical care to help manage people with adrenal tumors that could be cancerous. If you are having surgery soon (or recently), your tissue may be tested to see if these markers improve decision-making for your care.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05756777RecruitingPhase 1
Gilteritinib plus other IDH medicine for relapsed AML
This Phase 1 study tests how well gilteritinib works when combined with either ivosidenib or enasidenib in adults with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It targets specific genetic changes in the leukemia and may help shrink or control the cancer when standard options haven’t worked.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05757219RecruitingPhase 2
Itacitinib before CAR T for aggressive B-cell lymphoma
This trial tests itacitinib given before CAR T cell therapy to see if it can improve outcomes for people with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). It may help by calming certain immune signals before CAR T is started.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05760378RecruitingPhase 3
Famitinib plus immunotherapy for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests a combination of famitinib (a cancer drug that targets blood vessel growth) with immunotherapy drugs in people with newly diagnosed advanced triple-negative breast cancer that has spread or cannot be fully removed. It aims to improve how long patients live and how well the cancer responds.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05761093Recruiting
Share your treatment preferences for metastatic prostate cancer
This study asks people with metastatic prostate cancer and their doctors about what benefits and risks matter most when choosing treatment. Your answers can help improve how treatment options are discussed in Hong Kong.
ShatinAges 18 years+ - NCT05761366RecruitingPhase 2
18F-PSMA PET/CT scan for PSMA-positive tumors
This Phase 2 study tests an imaging scan called 18F-PSMA PET/CT to find tumors that have a specific marker (PSMA). It may help doctors better locate and evaluate PSMA-positive cancers.
Beijing, ChaoyangAges 18 years+ - NCT05762198Recruiting
Rezūm vs TURP for blocked urine from enlarged prostate
This study compares two procedures—Rezūm (water vapor therapy) and TURP (a surgery)—for men whose urine blockage is not improving. The goal is to see which option works better and is safer for relieving urinary retention due to an enlarged prostate.
Hong KongAges 50–80 - NCT05762250Recruiting
Ear acupuncture for symptom relief in advanced cancer
This study tests whether auricular (ear) acupuncture can reduce ongoing symptoms and daily limitations in people with advanced cancer. It may help with discomfort and other side effects related to the disease or its treatment.
StuttgartAges 18–70 - NCT05765643Recruiting
Mobile app support for parents managing children’s symptoms
This study tests a smartphone app meant to help parents manage their child’s symptoms at home. You may be able to join if you’re a parent of a medically complex child and can use the app in Chinese.
Kowloon, KowloonAges 2–18 - NCT05766098Recruiting
Genetic testing of papillary thyroid tumor samples
This trial studies the genetic “mutations” in papillary thyroid cancer tumors using tumor tissue. The goal is to better describe tumor genetic patterns, which may help researchers understand the disease.
Milan, MIAges Any age - NCT05768139RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new targeted drug for advanced solid tumors with PI3Kα mutation
This trial tests tersolisib, a new targeted medicine, in adults with advanced or hard-to-remove solid cancers. It focuses on tumors that have a specific genetic change (PI3Kα mutation) to see how well the treatment works and what side effects it causes.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05769517Recruiting
Using ultrasound to predict BRCA genes from healthy ovaries
This study looks at whether pictures from a vaginal (transvaginal) ultrasound of a healthy ovary can help predict whether someone carries BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene changes. It may help identify people who could benefit from more genetic testing, without needing new ultrasound images.
