Recruiting studies
- NCT07554521RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab Plus Chemotherapy for Advanced Stomach or Esophageal Cancer
This study tests a combination of two drugs—tislelizumab (an immunotherapy) and chemotherapy—to treat advanced stomach, gastroesophageal junction, or esophageal cancer that cannot be surgically removed. The trial focuses on recruiting patients from racial and ethnic minority communities to ensure the treatment is studied in diverse populations.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07281768RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo and immunotherapy for locally advanced rectal cancer
This trial tests whether adding two types of immunotherapy (cemiplimab with either fianlimab or REGN7075) to standard chemotherapy is safe and effective for people with locally advanced rectal cancer that has not been treated before. It may help shrink the tumor enough to allow surgery that preserves the ability to control bowel movements.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05633654RecruitingPhase 3
Test drug combo versus standard care for triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a cancer antibody-drug combination plus pembrolizumab (immunotherapy) versus standard treatment. It’s for people with triple-negative breast cancer that still has invasive disease in the breast or lymph nodes after surgery and chemotherapy before surgery.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT03671252RecruitingPhase 3
Chemotherapy before surgery for rectal cancer vs chemo with radiation
This Phase 3 trial compares two treatment plans given before rectal surgery. It tests whether stronger chemotherapy alone works better than chemotherapy pills plus long-term radiation to improve outcomes for locally advanced rectal cancer.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT03844256RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Bladder-sparing chemo-radiation plus immunotherapy for bladder cancer
This study tests whether adding immunotherapy drugs (nivolumab alone or nivolumab plus ipilimumab) to standard chemo-radiation can control muscle-invasive bladder cancer while helping people keep their bladder. It aims to find a safer, effective curative treatment for people who want to avoid bladder removal (cystectomy).
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT03899155RecruitingPhase 2
Study for continuing or restarting cancer treatment that worked before
This trial lets people who were already in a related “parent” study either keep taking treatment or restart it after it had stopped working for a while. It’s meant for people who previously had a meaningful response and may still benefit from continued treatment.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06205485RecruitingPhase 3
Chemotherapy and surgery vs chemoradiation for rectal cancer
This trial compares two approaches for early-stage rectal cancer: chemotherapy plus local surgery versus standard chemoradiotherapy. It aims to see if less intensive treatment can work just as well, reducing side effects.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04089631RecruitingPhase 3
Blood test guides extra treatment after stage II colon cancer surgery
This study uses a blood test called ctDNA to decide whether you need extra (adjuvant) chemotherapy after stage II colon or certain stage II rectal cancer surgery. It may help avoid unnecessary treatment or better target people who still have signs of cancer after surgery.
Dresden, SaxonyAges 18 years+ - NCT04095299RecruitingPhase 3
Standard vs high-dose radiotherapy for rectal cancer
This Phase 3 trial compares standard-dose and higher-dose radiotherapy given along with chemotherapy in people with rectal cancer. The goal is to see whether a higher dose can improve rectal cancer outcomes while keeping the rectum functioning and avoiding too much harm.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT04165772RecruitingPhase 2
Dostarlimab for locally advanced mismatch-repair deficient solid tumors
This Phase 2 trial studies dostarlimab (an immune therapy that targets PD-1) given before surgery or other initial treatment. It aims to shrink certain locally advanced cancers that have mismatch repair deficiency, potentially making treatment easier and improving outcomes.
Hartford, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT04339036RecruitingPhase 2
CapTem plus Y-90 for liver-spread neuroendocrine tumors
This Phase 2 study tests whether combining capecitabine/temozolomide (“CapTem”) with Y-90 treatment can shrink neuroendocrine tumor (NET) spread in the liver. It may help people whose tumor is mostly in the liver and cannot be fully removed with surgery.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04379596RecruitingPhase 2
Testing T-DXd combinations for HER2 stomach or esophagus cancer
This Phase 2 study tests how safe and effective T-DXd (an anti-cancer medicine) is in combination for people with advanced stomach/GEJ/esophagus cancer that is HER2-positive or HER2-low. It may help people whose cancer has spread or cannot be removed, depending on their prior treatments and test results.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18–130 - NCT04383275RecruitingPhase 2
De-escalation trial for early HER2+ breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether people with early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer may be treated with less intensive therapy, without losing effectiveness. You may be considered if your tumor is small, lymph nodes are negative, and your hormone (ER/PR) status and HER2 test results match the study groups.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT04495088RecruitingPhase 3
Before vs after chemotherapy for locally advanced rectal cancer
This Phase 3 study compares giving chemotherapy before rectal surgery versus giving it after surgery, using a tailored plan based on your risk. The goal is to see which timing helps more people with locally advanced rectal cancer stay cancer-free and live longer.
MannheimAges 18 years+ - NCT04501523RecruitingPhase 2
ctDNA-guided immunotherapy boost after chemotherapy for triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 2 study checks whether a blood test that looks for cancer DNA (ctDNA) can help decide who should get an extra 12-month immunotherapy treatment after standard chemotherapy and surgery. It may help reduce the chance of the cancer coming back in people with triple-negative breast cancer.
Guandong, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT04703101RecruitingPhase 1
Short radiation plus chemo for stage II–III rectal cancer
This trial tests a short course of radiation therapy combined with chemotherapy for people with stage II or III rectal cancer. It’s designed to see whether this approach is safe and effective before or around cancer surgery.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04787354RecruitingPhase 3
Choosing the best length of oxaliplatin after stomach surgery
This trial tests whether giving oxaliplatin for a shorter or longer time works best after curative surgery for stage II–III stomach (or stomach–esophagus junction) cancer. It aims to improve outcomes while balancing side effects from chemotherapy.
Gyeonggi-doAges 19 years+ - NCT04808323RecruitingPhase 1
MRI-guided radiation to help preserve organs in rectal cancer
This Phase 1 study tests a radiation treatment approach guided by MRI scans to help keep nearby organs functioning while treating rectal cancer. It is designed to find a safe, effective way to target the tumor and adjust treatment during the course of therapy.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT04894643Recruiting
Pre-surgery proton radiation plus chemo for borderline pancreatic cancer
This trial tests whether giving proton radiation and chemotherapy before surgery can shrink or control “borderline resectable” pancreatic cancer so it can be removed more effectively. It may help by improving treatment response while planning for surgery afterward.
Wiener Neustadt, Lower AustriaAges 18 years+ - NCT04997837RecruitingPhase 3
Adjuvant chemo with or without PD-1 for stomach cancer after surgery
This Phase 3 trial studies whether adding an immune medicine called PD-1 (given as an “inhibitor”) to standard chemotherapy and chemoradiation after stomach/GEJ cancer surgery can lower the risk of cancer coming back. You may qualify if you’ve had surgery removing the tumor and lymph nodes showed higher-risk disease.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05040360RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy after surgery for high-risk pancreatic NET tumors
This Phase 2 trial studies whether giving chemotherapy after surgery can lower cancer recurrence risk in people with high-risk pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). It may help you by testing an added treatment after the tumor has been removed.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT05228431RecruitingPhase 2
Tested treatment plan for locally advanced rectal cancer
This Phase 2 study looks at a modified “sandwich” treatment sequence for people with locally advanced rectal cancer—aiming to control the cancer before and after surgery. It may help you if you’re eligible and can follow the study’s treatment and safety requirements.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05236972RecruitingPhase 3
PD-1 antibody after colon cancer surgery for dMMR stage III
This phase 3 trial studies a PD-1 antibody medicine given after surgery to help prevent stage III colon cancer from coming back. It is specifically for people whose tumor is mismatch repair–defective (dMMR) or MSI-H, which may make the cancer more responsive to immune-based treatment.
GuangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT05288777RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing follow-up chemo and radiation for high-risk breast cancer
This trial studies a standard follow-up treatment plan that combines chemotherapy and radiation after surgery, and it looks for blood/tissue “biomarkers” that predict who benefits most. If you have high-risk breast cancer that didn’t fully disappear after initial (neoadjuvant) chemo, you may be eligible to help guide better future treatment choices.
