Skipping chemo after surgery for ER+ HER2- breast cancer
This study tests whether some people with a certain type of breast cancer (ER-positive, HER2-negative) can safely skip chemotherapy. After surgery, they receive a targeted pill (ribociclib) plus hormone therapy instead. The goal is to see if this approach works just as well with fewer side effects.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT04989985RecruitingPhase 2
SOX chemotherapy plus immunotherapy for junction stomach-esophagus cancer
This trial studies whether adding an immunotherapy drug (sintilimab) to standard chemotherapy (S-1 and oxaliplatin) can better treat locally advanced cancer at the junction of the esophagus and stomach. It may help shrink the tumor and control the cancer before or around surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07369596Recruiting
Chemotherapy doses and survival in older lung cancer patients
This study looks at how lowering chemotherapy doses affects survival in older patients with advanced lung cancer who do not have certain genetic mutations. It may help doctors understand the best way to treat this group.
Hong KongAges 65 years+ - NCT03734952Recruiting
Radiation after esophagus surgery for stage II–III cancer
This study looks at whether giving radiation after surgery (after chemo and radiation before surgery) can improve outcomes for people with squamous cell esophagus cancer in the chest. You may be considered if you are well enough for treatment and your cancer has not spread.
