Diet and gut microbiome study during screening colonoscopy
This study looks at how a person’s diet (vegetarian vs. omnivorous) affects the germs in the gut and related stool and tissue samples. You may be able to join if you’re getting a screening colonoscopy and meet lifestyle and medication requirements.
Houston, TexasAges 45 years+ - NCT04673955Recruiting
Real-world treatment study for metastatic bowel cancer with BRAF mutation
This real-world study looks at how doctors’ standard treatment works for metastatic colorectal cancer that has a specific BRAF mutation (BRAF V600E). It focuses on patients who are already starting—or will soon start—encorafenib plus cetuximab, using routine care rather than extra trial treatment.
Braunau am Inn, Upper AustriaAges 18 years+ - NCT04680377Recruiting
Using gut microbes to predict durvalumab side effects in lung cancer
This study looks at the microbiome (the tiny organisms in your gut) to try to predict who will get side effects from durvalumab after chemoradiation. If you join, your care team will use your microbiome results to help understand toxicity risk and improve future treatment planning.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT04681469RecruitingPhase 2
Niraparib plus immunotherapy for HPV-negative head and neck cancer
This Phase 2 study tests a cancer “induction then maintenance” plan using a PARP inhibitor (niraparib) along with immunotherapy (TSR-042) in people with HPV-negative head and neck squamous cell cancer. If it works, it may improve control of the cancer after surgery by boosting the immune system and targeting cancer cells’ DNA repair.
BresciaAges 18 years+ - NCT04684459RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CAR-T therapy for tumors with HER2 and PD-L1 markers
This early-phase trial tests CAR-T cells designed to attack tumors that have high HER2 and PD-L1. It may help people with certain solid cancers that have not responded well to standard treatment.

Study drug for adults with advanced cancers or AML
This early study (Phase 1/2) tests a new medicine (JAB-8263) in adults with advanced solid tumors or recurrent/refractory AML. It aims to find a safe dose and see whether it can shrink tumors or control the cancer.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04688528Recruiting
Radiation planning to spare the opposite neck in head cancer
This trial tests a safer radiation plan that may reduce dose to the opposite (other) side of the neck while still treating the cancer spread risk. It uses special mapping to guide treatment and looks at patients whose cancer is already in an involved lymph node on one side.
Genk, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT04694924Recruiting
Prostate cancer patient registry to track experiences
This study builds a database of people with localized or locally advanced prostate cancer to better understand patient-reported outcomes (your experiences and quality-of-life). It may help improve future care by collecting consistent feedback from patients.
Dendermonde, Oost-VlaanderenAges 18 years+ - NCT04703101RecruitingPhase 1
Short radiation plus chemo for stage II–III rectal cancer
This trial tests a short course of radiation therapy combined with chemotherapy for people with stage II or III rectal cancer. It’s designed to see whether this approach is safe and effective before or around cancer surgery.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04712305Recruiting
Urine test to predict kidney cancer response to immunotherapy
This study uses an at-home-style urine test (urine “omics,” meaning detailed lab information) to help predict how well immunotherapy may work for advanced kidney cancer. If you join, your urine results may help doctors tailor treatment choices and better understand who benefits most.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT04712851RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab for abnormal cells on the cervix
This trial tests pembrolizumab (an immune treatment) to see if it can treat high-grade abnormal cells of the cervix (CIN 2/3 or carcinoma in situ). You may need biopsies during the study and a planned procedure after about 24 weeks to remove or sample the cervix tissue.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 21 years+ - NCT04734730RecruitingPhase 2
Talazoparib plus hormone therapy for metastatic prostate cancer
This trial tests whether talazoparib added to standard hormone therapy (ADT), along with abiraterone, can better control metastatic prostate cancer that hasn’t progressed despite starting hormone treatment. It may help people live longer and delay cancer worsening.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04742608Recruiting
Liquid blood tests to diagnose thyroid nodules or cancer
This study tests whether a blood “liquid biopsy” can help diagnose thyroid cancer or hard-to-tell thyroid nodules without needing extra procedures. It may help confirm what’s going on before or around planned thyroid surgery.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04745403RecruitingPhase 1
Trial of redirected HBV-targeting T cells for liver cancer
This Phase 1 study tests a lab-made immune cell treatment that targets hepatitis B (HBV)–related liver cancer. It may help by directing the body’s immune system to attack the cancer, while carefully checking safety.
SingaporeAges 21–75 - NCT04745390Recruiting
Testing a tailored radiation dose plan for liver tumors
This study compares a standard radiation dose plan versus a plan that adjusts the dose based on how the tumor responds to radiation-related measurements. It aims to improve how well stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) treats liver cancer while keeping side effects manageable.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04763980Recruiting
