Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05024214RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test of envafolimab plus lenvatinib for advanced solid tumors
This trial studies whether combining envafolimab (an anti-immune cancer medicine) with lenvatinib (a targeted pill) can shrink or control advanced cancers that have stopped responding to standard care. It may help people whose tumors are not curable with usual treatments, by testing a new combo and finding safe doses.
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - 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+ - 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+ - NCT05047094Recruiting
DaRT radiation plus pembrolizumab for head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether a targeted internal radiation treatment (DaRT) combined with pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) can shrink recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell cancer that cannot be fully removed with surgery. It may help by making cancer more visible to the immune system while delivering localized radiation to a tumor area.
JerusalemAges 18 years+ - NCT05048212RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab, ipilimumab, and cabozantinib for kidney cancer brain spread
This Phase 2 study tests how well nivolumab plus ipilimumab, along with cabozantinib, treats untreated or worsening kidney cancer that has spread to the brain. It may help shrink brain tumors and slow the disease when standard local brain treatments aren’t the right option.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05047510Recruiting
Fluorescent-guided surgery for liver cancer using GPC3 dye
This trial studies whether a special fluorescent dye that targets GPC3 can help surgeons find liver cancer more clearly during an operation. It may improve how accurately tumor tissue is identified while you have surgery for hepatocellular carcinoma.
Zhuhai, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05072041Recruiting
Degradable chemo bead treatment for liver cancer
This trial studies a new type of “degradable” chemo bead delivered through a catheter to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It aims to check safety and whether the treatment works when surgery or transplant is not an option.
Seoul, SeoulAges 19–79 - NCT05076760RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a cancer-killing virus with standard treatments
This Phase 1 trial tests MEM-288, an oncolytic (cancer-killing) virus, either alone or combined with standard cancer medicines, in people with advanced solid tumors. It’s designed to see how the treatment works and how safe it is in different cancer types and after specific prior therapies.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05080556RecruitingPhase 2
Adaptive chemotherapy for ovarian cancer after platinum and PARP
This trial tests a personalized (adaptive) chemotherapy plan for people with certain types of ovarian/fallopian tube/peritoneal cancer who already had platinum chemotherapy and a PARP inhibitor. It’s for patients whose cancer came back after (or still responds to) prior platinum treatment and may help delay disease progression.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05100095RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation schedule study for Merkel cell skin cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a specific radiation timing/dose schedule for Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), a rare and aggressive skin cancer. It may help by improving control of the cancer after surgery, especially in higher-risk cases (like lymph nodes).
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05126160Recruiting
MRI-based imaging to guide treatment in nasopharyngeal cancer
This study uses special MRI images (and computer “radiomics” scores) to better understand nasopharyngeal cancer. The goal is to help doctors choose the most appropriate treatment for people with newly diagnosed cancer.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–70 - NCT05129969Recruiting
Registry for advanced ovarian or endometrial cancer patients
This registry collects information from people with advanced ovarian or endometrial cancer to better understand care and outcomes. It may help researchers and doctors learn which treatments work best for different patients.
Multiple LocationsAges 18 years+ - NCT05143619Recruiting
Teaching liver cancer diagnosis to radiologists worldwide
This study looks at whether a “teaching the teachers” approach improves how radiologists understand and apply liver cancer (HCC) diagnosis guidelines. It may help by standardizing how liver imaging results are interpreted across different countries and practice settings.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT05147844RecruitingPhase 2
Toripalimab plus radiation for limited-spread nose cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding toripalimab (an immune therapy) to radiation can control nasopharyngeal cancer that has spread only to a few places. It may help by boosting the immune system while the radiation treats the tumor sites.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05155033RecruitingPhase 2
A trial of PD-1 plus aldesleukin for melanoma or kidney cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether combining anti–PD-1 treatment with aldesleukin can shrink or control metastatic melanoma or metastatic kidney (renal cell) cancer. It is mainly for people who have either not had anti–PD-1 before, or whose cancer did not respond to prior anti–PD-1 treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05155189RecruitingPhase 1
Armored CAR-T treatment for advanced liver cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests the safety and early signs of effectiveness of an “armored” CAR-T cell therapy (C-CAR031) for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer). It may help by teaching the body’s immune cells to better recognize and attack the cancer.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT05178498Recruiting
Diet and inflammation score in women at high breast cancer risk
This study looks at whether a person’s diet that tends to cause more body inflammation is linked to future breast cancer risk. It may help researchers understand how eating patterns could affect risk in people already considered high-risk.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05183048RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Test a new PET scan to find head and neck cancer
This early-phase study compares a special imaging marker with a standard PET scan to help identify head and neck squamous cell carcinoma before surgery. It may help doctors see where cancer is (especially if lymph nodes look negative) so surgery planning can be more accurate.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05185505RecruitingPhase 4
Atezolizumab and bevacizumab before liver transplant for liver cancer
This trial tests giving atezolizumab plus bevacizumab before liver transplant in people with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) that is too advanced to be listed within the “Milan criteria,” but still transplant-eligible. The goal is to control the cancer outside the transplant period and improve transplant outcomes.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05185739RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab and lenvatinib before liver surgery for resectable cancer
This trial tests whether giving pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) and lenvatinib (a targeted pill) before planned liver surgery can improve outcomes for people with certain types of operable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It’s meant for tumors that can be removed with curative intent, but still carry a risk of coming back.
BirminghamAges 18 years+ - NCT05198830RecruitingPhase 2
Adding TRC102 to standard chemoradiation for stage III lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding TRC102 to standard chemotherapy plus radiation can improve outcomes for people with stage III non-squamous, non-small cell lung cancer. It is designed for newly staged patients and aims to help the immune system work better while treating the tumor.
Buena Park, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05201404RecruitingPhase 3
Namodenoson for advanced liver cancer with moderate cirrhosis
This Phase 3 trial studies whether namodenoson can slow or control advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer) in people whose cirrhosis is in a specific middle range. It may help if standard treatments have not worked or the cancer has spread and is not expected to be cured.
