Recruiting studies
- NCT05342792RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo tablets with or without an immune therapy after cancer treatment
This trial tests whether taking the chemo tablet capecitabine after standard chemoradiation can help prevent cancer from coming back, and whether adding an immune therapy (a PD-1 antibody) improves results. It is for people with high-risk nasopharyngeal (throat) cancer whose main treatment has already finished.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT05348876RecruitingPhase 4
Darolutamide plus standard hormone therapy for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial studies how safe darolutamide is and how well it works when added to standard hormone therapy for men with high-risk, non-metastatic prostate cancer that is no longer responding to hormone treatment. It may help slow prostate cancer growth and reduce prostate-specific antigen (PSA) rises in real-world care.
Vijayawada, Andhra PradeshAges 18 years+ - NCT05385549RecruitingPhase 2
5-Year imatinib after GIST surgery for high-risk patients
This study looks at taking imatinib (a targeted anti-cancer pill) for 5 years after your GIST tumor has been fully removed. It is meant to lower the chance that GIST comes back in people considered “high risk.”
Seoul, SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT05388643Recruiting
Early screening for gestational diabetes during early pregnancy
This study tests whether checking for gestational diabetes (diabetes that starts in pregnancy) early can help identify it sooner in people at higher risk. You may be asked to do a glucose test during your first prenatal visits so clinicians can monitor and respond earlier.
Worcester, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05394337RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immunotherapy before bladder surgery for cisplatin-ineligible patients
This trial tests two immunotherapy drugs given before bladder/urinary tract cancer surgery. It aims to shrink the tumor and improve outcomes in people who cannot safely take cisplatin chemotherapy.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05422027RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Selinexor with VRd for high-risk newly diagnosed myeloma
This early-phase study tests whether selinexor combined with VRd (bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone) can improve outcomes for people with high-risk, newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. You may be a candidate if you have certain lab/genetic signs of “high-risk” disease and haven’t had prior myeloma treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05445310RecruitingPhase 2
Taking furmonertinib after lung surgery for high-risk EGFR cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether furmonertinib can lower the risk of lung cancer coming back after surgery in certain early-stage lung cancers. You must have EGFR mutations and specific higher-risk features seen on the tumor’s pathology.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT05448547RecruitingPhase 3
Tested curative vs conservative treatment for older men with high-risk prostate cancer
This Phase 3 study compares an immediate curative treatment plan versus a more conservative approach in men age 75 and older with newly diagnosed, high-risk prostate cancer. The goal is to see which strategy controls the cancer while better protecting quality of life.
CopenhagenAges 75 years+ - NCT05450432RecruitingPhase 4
Ketamine maintenance to help prevent suicidal thoughts
This Phase 4 study tests whether ongoing treatment with ketamine or esketamine can reduce suicidal thoughts in people with major depression who are at high risk. Because the study focuses on long-term maintenance, you’d receive treatment over time while being closely monitored for safety and mental health changes.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–70 - NCT05469893RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted treatment for high-risk smoldering myeloma
This trial studies a precision approach to treat people with high-risk smoldering myeloma (a condition that can turn into active myeloma). The goal is to see whether the treatment can slow or prevent progression and improve outcomes.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT05557578RecruitingPhase 2
New drug before surgery for resectable bile duct cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a “neoadjuvant” (before-surgery) treatment for resectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer in the liver) that has higher risk of coming back. It aims to shrink or control the cancer before the operation, and to see if patients can safely undergo surgery afterward.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT05601726RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a new drug for hard-to-treat AML or high-risk MDS
This early study tests a new medicine (ABD-3001) to see if it’s safe and tolerable, how the body handles it, and whether it shows early signs of helping people with relapsed or hard-to-treat AML or high-risk MDS. It may be an option if standard treatments have already failed and you can’t receive a stem cell transplant.
Marseille, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT05620771RecruitingPhase 2
Y-90 radioembolization plus treatment for high-risk liver cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests TheraSphere® (a Y-90 radiation treatment delivered to the liver) combined with standard systemic therapy in people with high-risk hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes for people whose liver cancer is at higher risk to worsen.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05662462Recruiting
Phone coaching to keep blood sugar in range during pregnancy
This study tests whether technology plus coaching can help pregnant people with type 2 diabetes keep their blood sugar in a healthy target range. You may use a smartphone app and, if assigned to that group, a device that tracks glucose continuously.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05682755RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Chidamide to Prevent AML Return After Bone Marrow Transplant
This Phase 1/2 study tests whether chidamide can help prevent high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) from coming back after an allogeneic bone marrow transplant (allo-HSCT). Participants must already be in complete remission and have recovered blood counts after transplant.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–65 - NCT05686434RecruitingPhase 2
Osimertinib after surgery for early-stage EGFR-mutated lung cancer
This trial tests osimertinib (a targeted pill) given after surgery to help prevent early-stage lung cancer from coming back. It’s for people with fully removed, high-risk stage I non-small cell lung cancer that has specific EGFR gene changes.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05722405RecruitingPhase 4
Ixazomib plus lenalidomide compared to ixazomib alone for myeloma maintenance
This trial studies whether adding low-dose lenalidomide to ixazomib can help keep high-risk multiple myeloma from coming back after initial treatment. It may help prolong the time before the disease worsens, while also checking side effects.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–80 - NCT05726292RecruitingPhase 2
Enzalutamide plus relacorilant versus placebo for high-risk prostate cancer
This study tests whether adding relacorilant to enzalutamide (a hormone-blocking treatment) helps control high-risk localized prostate cancer better than enzalutamide plus a dummy pill. It may help prevent the cancer from growing or spreading by targeting a hormone pathway in addition to standard treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05726526Recruiting
Phone app monitoring to help people with advanced kidney disease
This study tests a phone app (with check-ins on things like blood pressure and weight) to help prevent complications in people with advanced chronic kidney disease. You may be a good match if you’re high risk and can actively measure and share your health data with a kidney care team.
Winnipeg, ManitobaAges 18 years+ - NCT05746793Recruiting
IVF pregnancy study to prevent pre-eclampsia in high-risk women
This trial studies ways to lower the risk of pre-eclampsia (dangerous high blood pressure in pregnancy) in women who are having a first pregnancy through IVF/ICSI or who have PCOS. It’s aimed at people considered higher risk for pre-eclampsia.
BrusselsAges 18–48 - NCT05781438Recruiting
In-home standing and walking help for infants at CP risk
This study tests a program that helps infants stand and walk at home. It may help babies with cerebral palsy—or those at high risk—by improving movement and function in a safe, supported way.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 5 months–2 years - NCT05786495Recruiting
Short antibiotic treatment for high-risk fever with low white cells
This study tests whether adults with “high-risk febrile neutropenia” can safely get a shorter course of antibiotics. It may help reduce side effects from antibiotics while still keeping infections under control.
EdmontonAges 18 years+ - NCT05790252RecruitingPhase 3
Buprenorphine patch for starting opioid treatment during pregnancy
This Phase 3 study tests whether a skin patch can help pregnant people start buprenorphine treatment for opioid use disorder safely and effectively. It may help with easier “induction” (starting the medication) while you’re pregnant.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18–110 - NCT05794958RecruitingPhase 1
Safety of second CAR-T re-infusion for hard-to-treat lymphoma
This Phase 1 study tests whether a second re-infusion of axicabtagene ciloleucel (CAR-T) is safe in people with aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that came back or did not respond after standard second-line CAR-T. It may help some patients by trying to improve disease control while carefully monitoring side effects.
