Pemetrexed into spinal fluid for EGFR-mutant lung cancer spread to brain lining
This Phase 2 trial tests giving pemetrexed directly into the spinal fluid to treat cancer that has spread to the brain’s and spinal cord’s lining (leptomeningeal metastasis). It is for people with EGFR-mutant non-squamous lung cancer whose disease progressed after osimertinib, and who may benefit from a targeted treatment delivered to the area affected in the brain lining.
Taipei, TaiwanAges 20 years+ - NCT05787834Recruiting
Breathing exercises at home to reduce cancer treatment side effects
This study tests whether doing simple breathing exercises at home can help reduce side effects from cancer treatments like chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiation. It may help you feel better during your treatment.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 21 years+ - NCT05808920Recruiting
Salvage surgery study for recurrent head and neck skin-cell cancer
This study looks at how well people do after “salvage” surgery (planned surgery after prior treatment) for recurrent or residual squamous cell cancer in the head and neck. It may help doctors understand which patients benefit most, including how this surgery affects survival and day-to-day function.
DerbyAges 18 years+ - NCT05786664Recruiting
Breast cancer survivor study collecting your health samples
This study invites women who finished treatment for non-metastatic invasive breast cancer to share health information and biological samples for future research. It may help scientists understand survivorship and improve care after treatment.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05793151Recruiting
Guided care to start cancer treatment on time after surgery
This trial tests a navigation program (help from a care coordinator) versus usual care to help people start the recommended “next-step” treatments (like radiation, sometimes with chemo) on time after surgery. It’s for certain stages of squamous cell cancer in the head and neck area where late treatment could matter.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05797168RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Early study drug for advanced solid tumors, alone or with another drug
This Phase 1/2 study tests a new AstraZeneca cancer drug (AZD5335) to see how safely it can be given and how well it works in people with advanced solid tumors. You may get it alone or with another treatment, and you’ll need to provide tumor information (sometimes including a biopsy) for study planning.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18–130 - NCT05752552RecruitingPhase 1
Safety study of a MET-targeting pill for advanced lung cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests DO-2 to see how safe it is and how the body absorbs it (pharmacokinetics) in people with advanced or metastatic lung cancer. It is for tumors that have a specific MET exon 14 “skipping” mutation and for whom standard treatments are no longer an option.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT05751512RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing a new treatment for advanced head and neck cancer that has stopped responding to standard care
This study tests a new drug called MRG003 against two other treatments (cetuximab or methotrexate) for people with a type of head and neck cancer that has come back or spread and has not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the new drug can better control the cancer and improve outcomes.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05766371RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus targeted radiation for advanced prostate cancer
This study combines two treatments: pembrolizumab, which helps your immune system fight cancer, and a targeted radioactive medicine (177Lu-PSMA-617) that seeks out and damages prostate cancer cells. It may help men whose prostate cancer has spread despite initial hormone therapy.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05751434RecruitingPhase 2
Exercise therapy for prostate cancer patients on active surveillance
This trial tests whether an exercise program can help men with early-stage prostate cancer who are being monitored instead of treated. If you are not very active now, you may be able to join a structured exercise plan to see if it improves your health and cancer signs.
Durate, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05775471RecruitingPhase 2
Check PD-1 plus enfortumab after kidney-urine-duct surgery
This Phase 2 study tests giving pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) and enfortumab vedotin (an antibody-drug medicine) before and after surgery to remove high-risk upper urinary tract cancer. The goal is to lower the chance the cancer comes back.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05533983Recruiting
Stool transplant plus nivolumab for advanced solid cancers
This study tests whether transferring stool microbiome (“FMT,” stool transplant) along with nivolumab can improve outcomes in people with advanced solid cancers that kept worsening even after anti–PD-1/PD-L1 treatment. It also looks at stool and blood changes to understand why the treatment might work.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT04074720Recruiting
Collecting breast cancer tissue and blood samples
This study collects tissue and/or blood samples from people with breast cancer to help future research. It may be useful if you’re already having surgery or another procedure as part of your treatment plan.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04204850RecruitingPhase 2
Cabozantinib for liver cancer that returns after liver transplant
This trial studies cabozantinib, a cancer medicine, for liver cancer that has come back after a liver transplant. It’s for people whose cancer can’t be cured with more surgery or local procedures, to see if the treatment can help control the disease.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05735080RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
INX-315 for advanced cancers with a specific gene change
This trial studies an experimental medicine (INX-315) given in an “open-label” way to people with advanced cancer that has not responded to prior treatment. It mainly looks at safety and side effects first, and also checks how well it works in cancers with a specific gene amplification.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05733598RecruitingPhase 2
RP2 plus standard treatment for advanced liver or bile cancers
This Phase 2 trial studies whether RP2, added to standard second-line treatment, can improve outcomes for people with advanced liver cancer or bile duct/gallbladder cancer. It may help by training the immune system to better attack the cancer after the cancer has already grown despite prior treatment.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05710679Recruiting
Blood test predicts leftover cancer after intensified head and neck radiation
This study uses a blood test to see whether cancer DNA is still detectable after a stronger combination of radiation and chemotherapy for locally advanced head and neck cancer. The goal is to predict who may have “residual” (remaining) disease and help guide future care.
Clermont-Ferrand, Puy-de-DômeAges 18–80 - NCT05716893RecruitingPhase 2
Aerobic exercise program for people getting breast cancer treatment
This Phase 2 study tests whether a supervised aerobic (cardio) training program can improve health and exercise capacity for people receiving treatment for primary breast cancer. You may join if you currently do very little moderate-to-vigorous exercise and can safely complete a special treadmill test that measures breathing and heart response.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05731726RecruitingPhase 2
New treatment before surgery for locally advanced rectal cancer
This trial tests whether giving serplulimab (an immune medicine) plus CAPEOX chemotherapy and celecoxib before surgery can shrink locally advanced rectal cancer and improve outcomes. It may help by increasing immune attack on the tumor while chemotherapy helps reduce the cancer before the operation.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT05687149Recruiting
Study of mouth and throat cancer patterns in Fanconi anemia
This study looks at how squamous cell carcinoma (a type of cancer) naturally develops over time in people with Fanconi anemia. It may help doctors better recognize warning signs and plan care in the future.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 8–90 - NCT05706129RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing targeted imaging and therapy for advanced solid tumors
This early-phase study tests two radioactive medicines that first help doctors see tumors and, in some parts of the study, treat them. It may help people with advanced, hard-to-remove cancers that have a specific tumor marker (CA IX).
MelbourneAges 18 years+ - NCT05703516Recruiting
Study of Tabrecta for NSCLC with exon 14 skipping
This study follows people in South Korea who have a specific lung cancer genetic change called “exon 14 skipping” and are going to take Tabrecta (capmatinib). It helps collect real-world safety and results for using this medicine under routine care.
Daegu, Dalseo guAges 18–100 - NCT05696782RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab after chemoradiation for stage III lung cancer
This trial tests giving durvalumab (an immune therapy) soon after standard chemotherapy and radiation for stage II–III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this “quick start” approach improves outcomes compared with waiting longer to begin durvalumab.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05693766RecruitingPhase 2
Gene test guides treatment for hormone-positive breast cancer
This trial studies whether a gene-signature test can help guide treatment choices for people with hormone receptor–positive (ER and/or PR) breast cancer that has spread or can’t be fully removed. It may help find the best therapy approach after prior hormone therapy and targeted cancer medicine.
