Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05528952RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine plus immunotherapy for unresectable liver cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding a cancer vaccine (to help the immune system recognize your tumor) to two medicines—atezolizumab and bevacizumab—can better control unresectable or advanced liver cancer. It’s for people who haven’t had prior whole-body (systemic) cancer treatment.
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT05534438RecruitingPhase 2
Tested targeted radiation plus usual drug treatment in metastatic breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding a very focused type of radiation to standard drug treatment can better control metastatic breast cancer. It is for people whose cancer is only progressing in one spot, seen on a PET scan.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05544136RecruitingPhase 2
Study of lower radiation and chemo for head and neck cancer
This study tests whether giving lower doses of radiation and chemotherapy is safe and effective for people with certain head and neck cancers. It aims to reduce side effects while keeping the treatment successful.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05526924RecruitingPhase 1
Phase 1 trial tests re-radiation plus immunotherapy and a cancer pill
This trial studies whether adding a checkpoint immunotherapy (tislelizumab) and a cancer pill (pamiparib) to radiation can better treat cancer that has come back in the head and neck. It’s for adults with previously treated, HPV-positive oropharynx tumors, usually without widespread spread.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05521698RecruitingPhase 1
Bicalutamide for early-stage bladder cancer
This trial tests whether the drug bicalutamide can help men with early-stage (non-invasive) bladder cancer, which has not grown into the bladder muscle. It is given before surgery to see if it can reduce the chance of the cancer coming back. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive bicalutamide or a placebo before their scheduled surgery.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05516628RecruitingPhase 2
Adjuvant atezolizumab plus bevacizumab after liver cancer surgery
This trial studies whether adding atezolizumab and bevacizumab after complete liver cancer surgery can lower the chance the cancer comes back. It also uses “multi-omics” tests (special lab tests on your tissue/blood) to help predict who is more likely to respond or resist treatment.
SingaporeAges 21–90 - NCT05263830Recruiting
Testing Glypican-3 to predict outcomes in liver cancer immunotherapy
This study looks at a blood/tissue marker called Glypican-3 to see who is more likely to do well when treated with immunotherapy for liver cancer. It may help doctors predict outcomes and tailor future care.
ParisAges 18–90 - NCT05494190Recruiting
Treatment strategy for lymph node spread in hypopharyngeal cancer
This trial studies treatment choices for people with hypopharyngeal squamous cell cancer that has spread to certain neck lymph nodes. The goal is to help control the cancer in the neck and improve outcomes when the lymph node area can be surgically managed.
Harbin, HeilongjiangAges 18–75 - NCT05497531Recruiting
Test blood DNA to help guide liver and pancreas biopsies
This pilot study checks whether a special blood test (ctDNA) can detect cancer signals and work as well as another sample method during biopsies for liver, bile duct, or pancreatic cancers. It may help doctors choose the best way to confirm the diagnosis from biopsy samples.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05496036RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab before surgery for resectable Merkel cell cancer
This trial tests pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) given before surgery to shrink Merkel cell carcinoma and improve outcomes. Participants also have extra tumor biopsies to study biomarkers, which may help explain who benefits most.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05472948RecruitingPhase 2
Testing surufatinib plus immunotherapy with capecitabine for bowel cancer
This Phase 2 study tests a combination of anti-cancer drugs (surufatinib, immunotherapy, and capecitabine) to treat cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. It’s for people whose small intestine or appendix adenocarcinoma has progressed after earlier treatment, aiming to shrink tumors and improve control of the disease.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT05468359RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing four medicines in children and teens with hard-to-treat tumors
This early-phase trial studies how safe and effective a combination of four medicines is for children and teens with certain solid tumors that have come back or cannot be controlled with standard treatment. It may help by improving tumor control, while also carefully tracking side effects.
Germantown, TennesseeAges Up to 30 years - NCT05460000RecruitingPhase 2
Niraparib after early ovarian cancer chemo—short vs long
This trial tests whether taking niraparib (a maintenance anti-cancer pill) for a shorter time after 3 cycles of platinum chemotherapy works as well as taking it after 6 cycles. It is for people with advanced ovarian cancer that has been fully removed (no visible tumor) and is “HRD-positive,” meaning it has certain DNA repair weaknesses.
InnsbruckAges 18 years+ - NCT05440708RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed
This trial tests TTI-101, by itself and with other cancer medicines, for liver cancer that is advanced and cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see whether the treatment can slow the cancer down and improve outcomes.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05433142RecruitingPhase 1
XmAb 819 for advanced kidney cancer and other solid tumors
This Phase 1 trial tests a new drug called XmAb 819 to treat advanced clear cell kidney cancer and other cancers that have grown despite standard treatments. It mainly looks at safety and how the body responds, with the goal of finding signs the drug can work.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05420948RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab with chemotherapy for returning or spread head cancer
This Phase 2 study tests pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) plus chemotherapy to treat head and neck cancer that has come back or spread. You might be eligible if standard local treatments won’t be curative and your tumor can be measured on scans.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05429970Recruiting
Reducing stress before ovarian cancer surgery with two medicines
This study tests whether giving two commonly used medicines before surgery—one that can lower stress on the body (a beta-blocker) and one that reduces inflammation (a COX-2 inhibitor)—can improve outcomes compared with standard care. It’s for people with advanced ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who are having open surgery.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05419089RecruitingPhase 2
Testing robotic surgery for HPV-related throat cancer patients
This Phase 2 trial studies a robotic surgery approach for certain HPV-related throat cancers, using HPV blood tests before and after surgery to guide care. If your cancer is HPV-related and your HPV blood test results match the trial targets, you may be able to join and help improve treatment for future patients.
Paramus, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05363280RecruitingPhase 2
Second-treatment study for lung or kidney cancer after initial therapy
This Phase 2 study tests a new treatment for people with small cell lung cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, or kidney cancer after they have finished their first main treatment. It may help shrink tumors or control the cancer further.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05376553Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
