Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06228482RecruitingPhase 1
Targeted radioactive therapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new targeted radioactive drug that seeks out a specific marker on lung cancer cells. It first uses a low-dose imaging scan to see if the cancer cells have this marker, then gives a higher-dose treatment to destroy those cells.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06229912RecruitingPhase 2
Revumenib for leukemia with HOX gene changes
This trial tests an oral drug called revumenib (a menin inhibitor) for patients with acute leukemia that has returned or not responded to treatment, and whose leukemia has a specific HOX gene change. Revumenib aims to stop cancer growth by blocking a protein that helps leukemia cells survive.
New York, New YorkAges 12 years+ - NCT06230185Recruiting
Blood test to monitor treatment response in triple-negative breast cancer
This trial is testing whether a blood test can track how well chemotherapy is working in people with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer. You would provide blood samples before and during treatment, and the results may help your doctor understand your response better.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06230666Recruiting
Comparing two SBRT methods for multiple cancer spots
This trial compares two ways of giving high-precision radiation (SBRT) to multiple cancer spots outside the brain. It aims to see if using one radiation plan for all spots is as effective and safe as using separate plans.
ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT06232265Recruiting
Predicting Immunotherapy Success in Lung Cancer
This study looks at how well a test called LIRAscore can predict whether immunotherapy will work for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. You will receive standard immunotherapy (with or without chemotherapy), and researchers will check your tumor samples for certain markers.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT06237179RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Exercise program to reduce heart risk in prostate cancer
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program can help reduce heart disease risk in men with prostate cancer who are on hormone therapy. Participants will exercise at home or in a group and be monitored for heart health changes.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 40–85 - NCT06236464Recruiting
Studying causes of certain skin-like cancers
This study looks at why certain squamous cell carcinomas (a type of skin-like cancer) develop in areas like the anus, cervix, vulva, or head/neck. It collects tissue samples during surgery to find better ways to prevent and treat these cancers.
Bari, BariAges 18 years+ - NCT06236633Recruiting
Blocking an artery before rectal cancer surgery
This trial tests a technique called ischemic preconditioning, where doctors temporarily block a main artery in your gut before rectal cancer surgery to see if it helps reduce complications. If you are scheduled for this type of surgery and meet the health criteria, the study may offer more information about safer recovery.
MontpellierAges 18–90 - NCT06236789Recruiting
Ifosfamide for men with advanced prostate cancer
This trial is studying whether the chemotherapy drug ifosfamide (given with mesna to protect the bladder) can help men whose prostate cancer has spread and is no longer controlled by hormone therapy. It is for men who have already tried the chemotherapy docetaxel.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06236724RecruitingPhase 2
