This study looks at biological samples from people diagnosed with lung cancer at age 45 or younger. It may help researchers understand how young lung cancers differ, which could guide future treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 15 years+ - NCT05268614RecruitingPhase 2
Risk-based reduced chemo and radiation for HPV throat cancer
This trial tests whether using a lower intensity (reduced) chemo-radiation plan can work for some people with HPV-related oropharyngeal (throat) cancer without losing effectiveness. It may help reduce side effects while still controlling the cancer.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05281003RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus chemo before surgery for esophageal cancer
This trial tests whether giving pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) plus chemotherapy before surgery can improve outcomes for people with locally advanced, operable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. It may help shrink the tumor and improve the chance of successful surgery.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05286619RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab with chemotherapy for recurrent head and neck cancer
This trial studies whether pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy (platinum and gemcitabine) can control recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma that can’t be cured with local treatments. It may help shrink tumors and slow disease growth in people who haven’t had cancer medicines for this stage before.
Kuala LumpurAges 18 years+ - NCT05287945RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Orellanine for kidney cancer patients on dialysis
This early-stage study tests orellanine to treat advanced kidney cancer that has spread (metastatic clear-cell or papillary type). It may help by shrinking or controlling cancer, and by seeing whether the treatment is safe and tolerable in people already on chronic dialysis.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05290194RecruitingPhase 2
New metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer trial with radiotherapy and PD-1
This trial studies whether adding targeted radiotherapy (SBRT) to PD-1 immunotherapy plus capecitabine can improve outcomes for people with newly diagnosed metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer. You may be eligible if your cancer has responded at least to “stable disease” after an initial chemo-immunotherapy course.
