New York, New YorkAges 35 years+ - NCT05222971RecruitingPhase 2
Olaparib, with or without immunotherapy, for DNA-repair biliary cancer
This Phase 2 study tests olaparib (a targeted anti-cancer pill) alone or with durvalumab (an immunotherapy) for biliary tract cancers that have specific DNA repair gene changes. It’s for people whose cancer has continued after standard platinum chemotherapy, aiming to slow or control the disease.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05223803RecruitingPhase 2
Study radiation for early metastatic prostate cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a radiation-focused approach for people with newly diagnosed (de novo) prostate cancer that has spread to a small number of spots, especially in bone. It aims to see how well the treatment controls the cancer while keeping side effects manageable.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05229614RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus carbon ion radiation for stable solid tumors
This trial studies whether adding carbon ion radiation to ongoing immunotherapy can help people whose cancer is currently stable. It targets solid cancers where scans show the disease is not growing quickly, aiming to improve control without causing unsafe side effects.
DarmstadtAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT05254184RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine and immunotherapy for KRAS-mutated lung cancer
This Phase 1 study tests a KRAS-targeted vaccine combined with chemo and immunotherapy (nivolumab and ipilimumab) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to help the immune system recognize and fight tumors with specific KRAS mutations, and to see if the treatment is safe and effective enough to study further.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT05257551Recruiting
Small cell lung cancer data study using tumor and blood samples
This observational study collects information and lab samples from people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It may help researchers understand how patients respond and improve future care, but it usually does not add new treatment for you.
Los Alamitos, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05283226RecruitingPhase 2
Oral anti-cancer pill plus paclitaxel after immunotherapy failure
This Phase 2 trial studies an oral study drug (NRC-2694-A) given with paclitaxel to treat head and neck squamous cell cancer that has come back or spread after immunotherapy. It tests whether this combination is safer and works better than expected for people whose cancer progressed on immune checkpoint inhibitors.
Fullerton, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05292742RecruitingPhase 2
Continue targeted breast cancer therapy or switch to a new combo
This Phase 2 study compares two treatment plans after breast surgery when cancer did not fully disappear before surgery. It tests whether adding trastuzumab, pyrotinib, and capecitabine works better than continuing the original targeted therapy.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT05297617RecruitingPhase 2
Shorter hormone therapy for low-risk postmenopausal breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether women with very low-risk, hormone-receptor positive breast cancer can safely take hormone therapy for a shorter time. It may help reduce side effects if shorter treatment works as well as the longer standard plan.
LimogesAges 51 years+ - NCT05300308Recruiting
Studying leg swelling and nighttime urination after pelvic node surgery
This trial looks at why some people develop leg swelling (lymphedema) and frequent nighttime urination (nocturia) after pelvic lymph node surgery for prostate or bladder cancer. It may help doctors better predict and manage these side effects after the operation.
Leuven, FlandersAges 18 years+ - NCT05304858Recruiting
Study of prostate cancer spread using biopsy and lab tests
This trial studies the “microenvironment” around prostate cancer metastases, using specimens taken during biopsy and other scans. It may help researchers understand what drives prostate cancer spread and improve future treatment choices.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05325632RecruitingPhase 2
HER2 breast cancer vaccine plus chemo and targeted antibodies
This Phase 2 study tests a personalized immune-therapy vaccine made from your immune cells, given with weekly paclitaxel and HER2-targeted antibodies (trastuzumab and pertuzumab). It aims to improve treatment outcomes for people with HER2-positive breast cancer before standard local treatment (like surgery and radiation).
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05327543Recruiting
