This study looks at what makes some cancers more “noticeable” to the immune system. It may help researchers design better future immunotherapy by collecting information (often including blood samples) from people with different cancers.
ToulouseAges 18 years+ - NCT05929768RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter chemo plus immunotherapy without anthracyclines for early TNBC
This Phase 3 trial tests whether a shorter course of chemotherapy plus immunotherapy can work as well as standard treatment for early-stage triple-negative breast cancer. It avoids anthracycline drugs and may help reduce exposure to those medicines if the shorter plan is effective and safe.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05512364RecruitingPhase 3
Elacestrant for ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer with ctDNA relapse
This trial tests whether elacestrant can help stop or delay breast cancer coming back in people whose blood test shows “ctDNA relapse” after early breast cancer treatment. It’s meant for hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancer patients who are already taking hormone (endocrine) therapy and have no visible spread on scans.
AnderlechtAges 18 years+ - NCT05187182RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new cancer drug with FOLFOX and immune therapy
This Phase 1 study tests CA-4948 given with standard chemotherapy (FOLFOX) and an immune therapy (an immune checkpoint inhibitor, similar to PD-1). It’s for people with advanced stomach or esophageal cancer that can’t be removed by surgery, to see how well the treatment works and whether it’s safe.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05051722Recruiting
Test DNA blood and tissue markers to detect gynecologic cancers
This study looks for “methylated DNA markers” (special DNA patterns) to help detect endometrial, ovarian, and cervical cancers, and to support doctors around planned procedures. It may help find cancer earlier or better sort out who needs closer treatment.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05000294RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Atezolizumab plus tivozanib for hard-to-treat “cold” cancers
This early-stage study tests whether combining atezolizumab and tivozanib can shrink advanced, hard-to-treat cancers that do not strongly activate the immune system (“immunologically cold”). It is for people whose cancer has already been treated or has no good standard options.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–99 - NCT04816006Recruiting

T-cell therapy for HLA-A11:01 and KRAS G12V tumors
This trial tests a custom immune-cell treatment made from your blood that targets the KRAS G12V change in certain cancers. It is for people with advanced cancer who have already tried standard treatments, and it may help your immune system recognize and attack tumor cells.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT07783477RecruitingPhase 1
Armored CAR T cells for DLL3 positive cancers
This trial tests an experimental treatment using your own immune cells, modified to better find and attack cancer cells that carry a marker called DLL3. It is for people with certain neuroendocrine tumors, including small cell lung cancer, who have already tried standard treatments.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07631052RecruitingPhase 2
Low-dose Capecitabine for High-risk Early Breast Cancer
This study tests whether a low-dose chemotherapy pill called capecitabine can help prevent breast cancer from coming back in patients whose cancer shows signs of remaining disease (called MRD) despite standard treatment. The trial focuses on hormone-receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancers.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07482384Recruiting
Support program for young women with early-stage breast cancer
This study tests a mobile health program that provides support and information to young women with early-stage breast cancer who are on hormone therapy. The goal is to help you stay on your treatment and manage side effects.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–49 - NCT07468903Recruiting
Focal radiation for prostate cancer with HDR brachytherapy
This trial tests a targeted radiation treatment called HDR brachytherapy for prostate cancer that hasn't spread. It aims to treat only the cancer spots seen on MRI, which may reduce side effects.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 40 years+ - NCT07462377RecruitingPhase 1
Testing EPI-326 for EGFR-mutant lung and head & neck cancers
This trial tests a new drug, EPI-326, in people with advanced lung or head & neck cancers that have certain EGFR changes. The goal is to see if it is safe and may help shrink the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05288777RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing follow-up chemo and radiation for high-risk breast cancer
This trial studies a standard follow-up treatment plan that combines chemotherapy and radiation after surgery, and it looks for blood/tissue “biomarkers” that predict who benefits most. If you have high-risk breast cancer that didn’t fully disappear after initial (neoadjuvant) chemo, you may be eligible to help guide better future treatment choices.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07132918RecruitingPhase 2
Heart-Sparing Radiation for Thoracic Cancers
This trial tests a new way to plan radiation for cancers in the chest area (like lung, esophageal, or thymus cancers) that aims to protect the heart from high doses of radiation. It is for people who need daily radiation for at least three weeks and who are expected to live more than a year.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT07121595RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized neck radiation for mouth cancer with sentinel node biopsy
This study tests whether a personalized approach to radiation therapy after surgery, guided by a special lymph node biopsy (sentinel node biopsy), can effectively treat mouth cancer while reducing side effects. It is for people whose cancer is on one side of the mouth and has not spread to the other side of the neck or beyond.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06989450Recruiting
Digital support for women on hormone therapy for breast cancer
This trial tests a smartphone app called Sidekick to help women with early-stage breast cancer stick to their hormone therapy and feel more confident managing their health. If you were diagnosed with stage I, II, or III breast cancer after September 2023 and are starting hormone therapy, this program might help you stay on track.
ReykjavikAges 18 years+ - NCT06918132RecruitingPhase 2
Cemiplimab and Fianlimab before lung cancer surgery
This trial tests whether two immunotherapy drugs (cemiplimab and fianlimab) given before surgery can help treat stage IB to IIIB non-small cell lung cancer. You must have a PD-L1 level of at least 1% and your surgeon must think the tumor can be fully removed.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06885203Recruiting
