Aerosol chemo plus standard drugs for bile duct and gallbladder cancer
This trial tests a new way to give the drug paclitaxel directly into your belly as a mist, along with two standard chemo drugs given through your veins, for bile duct or gallbladder cancer that has spread to the lining of the belly. The goal is to see if this approach can better control the cancer in the belly.

Study drug vs standard care for HER2 salivary gland cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests how well ado-trastuzumab emtansine (and compares to two standard treatment options) works for salivary gland cancers that are HER2-positive or HER2-low. It aims to see whether the study drug can control cancer better and with acceptable side effects.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05136846RecruitingPhase 1

What taking part in a carcinoma study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
