Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT05214885Recruiting
Study biomarkers in kidney cancer and healthy people
This study looks at blood or body measures called “biomarkers” to understand how lack of oxygen and body energy changes in clear cell kidney cancer. It compares people with kidney cancer to carefully matched healthy volunteers to see what patterns might help improve understanding or future care.
JinanAges Any age - NCT05342792RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo tablets with or without an immune therapy after cancer treatment
This trial tests whether taking the chemo tablet capecitabine after standard chemoradiation can help prevent cancer from coming back, and whether adding an immune therapy (a PD-1 antibody) improves results. It is for people with high-risk nasopharyngeal (throat) cancer whose main treatment has already finished.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT04666961RecruitingPhase 2
Hormone therapy before surgery for extensive DCIS
This Phase 2 study tests whether taking hormone medicine before surgery can change the surgical plan and outcomes for people with extensive ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). It is for estrogen-receptor positive DCIS and aims to see how this “neoadjuvant” approach affects treatment decisions.
AngersAges 40 years+ - NCT05037825Recruiting
Study gut microbes with immune therapy in several solid cancers
This trial looks at how the gut microbiome (the bacteria in your digestive system) relates to outcomes when you take standard immune “checkpoint” cancer medicines. If you’re eligible, they’ll collect stool samples while you receive treatment for certain cancers.
Elizabethtown, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT04437329RecruitingPhase 3
Nedaplatin vs cisplatin for nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial compares two chemotherapy drugs—nedaplatin versus cisplatin—in people newly diagnosed with a specific type of nasopharyngeal cancer. The goal is to see which drug works better and/or has a safer side-effect profile when given as part of standard treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT04499833Recruiting
Test an AI score to guide liver transplant decisions
This study looks at a prediction tool that estimates outcomes for people with liver cancer and cirrhosis, to help decide whether a liver transplant is a good option. It may help doctors choose the right timing and patients who could benefit most from transplantation.
LisbonAges 18–70 - NCT04973306RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Chemo-immunotherapy before surgery versus chemo-radiation
This trial compares adding immunotherapy to standard chemo-radiation before surgery for locally advanced, operable esophageal squamous cell cancer. It aims to improve how well the tumor responds and whether patients do better after surgery.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT05352321Recruiting
Surgery plus targeted chemoradiation versus standard chemoradiation
This trial compares two treatment plans for newly diagnosed, operable nasopharyngeal cancer: adding surgery plus targeted chemoradiation versus standard chemoradiation alone. It aims to see whether the surgery-based plan improves control of the cancer and related outcomes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT05447169Recruiting
Testing blood and DNA checks for nasopharyngeal cancer risk
This study tests an Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) blood antibody and an EBV DNA test to help screen people at higher risk for nasopharyngeal cancer. It may find signs earlier in certain families where cancer runs.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 30–62 - NCT05025813RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab before surgery or radiation for high-risk skin SCC
This Phase 2 trial tests pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) given before surgery to see if it can help control high-risk invasive cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. The goal is to improve outcomes by treating cancer earlier and then following with standard surgery and radiation if needed.
Camperdown, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT04985032Recruiting
Radiation after lumpectomy for selected breast tumors
This trial tests a shorter, focused type of radiation (APBI using SBRT) after lumpectomy for certain early breast cancers. It may help by targeting only the part of the breast where the tumor was, rather than treating the whole breast, while keeping safety and cancer control in mind.
Stuart, FloridaAges 50–100 - NCT04192253RecruitingPhase 2
Carboplatin and paclitaxel before surgery for vulvar cancer
This trial tests giving chemotherapy (carboplatin and paclitaxel) before surgery for certain cases of squamous cell vulvar cancer. It may help shrink the tumor and make surgery more effective.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT04161664RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo for metastatic vulvar cancer with carboplatin and paclitaxel
This trial studies how well carboplatin plus paclitaxel chemotherapy works for vulvar squamous cell cancer that has spread. It may help shrink tumors and control cancer growth in people who are not able to be fully treated with local surgery.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT05611515Recruiting
New treatment plan for early supraglottic throat cancer
This trial tests a treatment approach for early-stage supraglottic (upper voice box) squamous cell carcinoma. It may help improve outcomes while also tracking quality of life during and after treatment.
Yvoir, NamurAges 18 years+ - NCT05620732Recruiting
CAR-T treatment for advanced stomach or pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a customized immune-cell treatment (CAR-T) for advanced stomach or pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to use cells engineered to target a specific tumor marker to shrink cancer or slow its growth.
