Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06315881RecruitingPhase 2
Study of Nicotine Pouches for Cigarette or Snuff Users
This trial tests nicotine pouches (like small pouches you put in your mouth) as a way to help people who smoke cigarettes or use moist snuff. It studies how your body reacts to these pouches under controlled conditions and during daily life.
Columbus, OhioAges 21 years+ - NCT06312982RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Chemo, radiation, and immunotherapy before rectal cancer surgery
This trial tests whether a combination of chemotherapy, radiation, and an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab) before surgery can improve outcomes for people with locally advanced rectal cancer that has specific protein/gene markers (pMMR or MSS). It’s designed for those who have not yet had any treatment for their cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06302595Recruiting
MRI-guided prostate biopsy for cancer diagnosis
This trial uses MRI to guide a biopsy of the prostate, aiming to better detect cancer in men with abnormal PSA levels, a lump, or a suspicious MRI finding.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 30 years+ - NCT06315010RecruitingPhase 2
Repotrectinib for lung cancer with brain metastasis
This trial tests a targeted pill called repotrectinib for people with a specific type of lung cancer (ROS1-positive non-small cell lung cancer) that has spread to the brain. The drug aims to shrink brain tumors and control the cancer, especially when brain-focused treatments like surgery or radiation are not needed right away.
GrazAges 18 years+ - NCT06301438Recruiting
Dalpiciclib for HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a drug called Dalpiciclib for people with a certain type of advanced breast cancer (HR-positive, HER2-negative). It aims to see if it can help stop the cancer from growing.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT06306274Enrolling by invitationPhase 2/Phase 3
Tacrolimus cream for breast cancer-related lymphedema
This study tests if a cream called tacrolimus can help reduce swelling in the arm caused by breast cancer treatment (lymphedema). It is looking for women with mild to moderate swelling that has not yet caused severe skin changes.
