Wiener Neustadt, Lower AustriaAges 18 years+ - NCT05200260RecruitingPhase 2
Surgery plus maintenance medicines for advanced ovarian cancer
This trial checks whether having surgery to remove as much tumor as possible, followed by ongoing targeted treatment, helps people with advanced ovarian (and related) cancers live longer and/or control cancer better. It specifically uses tumor-testing results to match patients and then continues treatment after surgery.
FoshanAges 18 years+ - NCT05229341Recruiting
Testing DNA “methylation” to evaluate thyroid nodule samples
This study looks at patient tissue from needle biopsies to see if DNA “methylation” patterns can help diagnose and guide treatment for thyroid nodules. You might benefit by helping improve how these nodules are evaluated, using information from your biopsy sample and medical data.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05236686Recruiting
Surgery to remove upper abdomen lymph nodes for ovarian cancer
This trial studies whether removing lymph nodes in the upper abdomen (hepatoceliac lymph nodes) improves outcomes for people with stage III or IV ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has spread to those lymph nodes. It also looks at how this surgery works for people with certain types of relapse, often alongside chemotherapy.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT05236972RecruitingPhase 3
PD-1 antibody after colon cancer surgery for dMMR stage III
This phase 3 trial studies a PD-1 antibody medicine given after surgery to help prevent stage III colon cancer from coming back. It is specifically for people whose tumor is mismatch repair–defective (dMMR) or MSI-H, which may make the cancer more responsive to immune-based treatment.
GuangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT05239624RecruitingPhase 2
Enfortumab plus pembrolizumab for muscle-invasive bladder cancer
This Phase 2 study tests how well two anti-cancer medicines—enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab—work for people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer that has spread to nearby lymph nodes (but not distant organs). It may help shrink the cancer and improve treatment outcomes before or around planning major surgery.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05244239RecruitingPhase 1
Radiation plus lurbinectedin for advanced small cell lung cancer
This trial studies whether adding palliative (comfort-focused) radiation to the medicine lurbinectedin can better control extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It may help reduce problems from tumors in places like bones and organs.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05262010RecruitingPhase 3
HPV vaccine study for Chinese women, ages 9–45
This trial tests an 11-type HPV vaccine to prevent infection from multiple HPV strains. If you enroll, you’ll receive scheduled vaccine doses and have health and gynecologic check-ins to see how well the vaccine works and is tolerated.
Hechi, GuangxiAges 18–45 - NCT05272696RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus chemo before treatment for advanced head and neck cancer
This Phase 2 study tests pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy medicine) together with induction chemotherapy before the main cancer treatment for stage III/IVA head and neck squamous cell cancer. It aims to improve how well the tumor responds and how long people can stay controlled.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT05276037Recruiting
PET/CT scan to guide liver transplant decisions in liver cancer
This trial studies how a whole-body PET/CT scan using a “tracer” called 18F-FDG can help decide which people with liver cancer (HCC) may benefit from a liver transplant. It may help the transplant team better sort out who is likely to do well after transplant.
AntwerpAges 18–80 - NCT05280314RecruitingPhase 2
