Recruiting studies
- NCT06314542Recruiting
Study on relaxing rules for lung cancer trial participation
This study looks at real-world data from people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer to see how making trial rules less strict might affect who can join. It may help make future trials more inclusive.

Radiation, immunotherapy, and surgery for chest wall lung cancer
This trial tests combining radiation, immunotherapy (durvalumab), and surgery for people with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the chest wall or top of the lung. It aims to see if this approach can help remove the cancer completely.
TorontoAges 18–99 - NCT06333392Recruiting
Underwater colonoscopy for better cancer screening
This trial tests if a new type of colonoscopy called total underwater colonoscopy (TUC) is better at finding polyps and cancer during routine screening. If you had a positive FIT stool test and are scheduled for a follow-up colonoscopy, you may be able to join.
DrammenAges 55–60 - NCT06340620Recruiting
Comparing a new ultrasound tool to the standard scope
This study compares a new, possibly easier-to-use ultrasound tool (EndoSound Vision System) to the standard echoendoscope for looking at organs like the pancreas, bile duct, or lymph nodes. If you are already scheduled for an endoscopic ultrasound, you may be able to join.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18–100 - NCT06342037RecruitingPhase 2
New immunotherapy options for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests two immunotherapy drugs (atezolizumab and tiragolumab) for people with advanced triple-negative breast cancer that has not responded to standard treatments. It aims to see if this combination can shrink or slow the cancer.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06346080Recruiting
Survey on gastro-esophageal cancer screening choices
This study is a survey to understand how patients and the public make choices about screening for gastro-esophageal cancer. It aims to help design better testing programs.
LeuvenAges 18–85 - NCT06346197RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy combo for advanced MSI-H stomach/esophageal cancer
This trial tests a combination of immune checkpoint inhibitors (nivolumab, botensilimab, and balstilimab) plus chemotherapy for people with advanced stomach or esophageal cancer that has a specific genetic instability (MSI-H/dMMR) and expresses PD-L1. It may be an option for those who haven't had prior immunotherapy or chemotherapy for advanced disease.
BrestAges 18 years+ - NCT06346054Recruiting
Breath and blood test for gastro-esophageal cancer and Barrett's esophagus
This study is testing whether a simple breath and blood test can help doctors better understand gastro-esophageal cancer and Barrett's esophagus. It aims to see if these non-invasive samples can provide useful information for diagnosis and monitoring.
LeuvenAges 18–100 - NCT06347705RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine plus standard therapy for prostate cancer before surgery
