Capivasertib plus fulvestrant for high-risk lobular breast cancer
This trial tests adding capivasertib to fulvestrant for women with a certain type of breast cancer (invasive lobular carcinoma) that is hormone-receptor positive and has a high risk of coming back. The treatment is given before surgery to see if it works better than fulvestrant alone.
AugsburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06984406Recruiting
Beet product for kidney protection during heart procedure
This trial tests a beet-derived food product (a natural source of nitrate) to see if it can help prevent kidney damage caused by the contrast dye used during a heart procedure called PCI. It is designed for people who already have a higher risk of this kidney problem.
MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT06450171Recruiting
Multi-cancer early detection test for people at high risk
This study tests a blood-based multi-cancer early detection (MCED) screening test in people with a high risk of cancer due to inherited gene changes or strong family history. The goal is to see if this test can find cancer early.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 22 years+ - NCT07436741RecruitingPhase 3
Study of surufatinib plus chemo before surgery for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests if adding surufatinib to standard chemotherapy before surgery can help people with a certain type of pancreatic cancer. The goal is to see if the combination shrinks the tumor more than chemotherapy alone.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06487052Recruiting
Catheter-based clot-dissolving drug for intermediate-high risk pulmonary embolism
This trial tests whether a standard procedure using a catheter to deliver clot-dissolving medicine directly into the lung artery works well for people with a serious but not immediately life-threatening blood clot in the lungs (pulmonary embolism). It aims to improve heart function and reduce long-term complications.
