Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05606523Recruiting
Test gut bacteria treatment for weight loss in pancreatic cancer
This study looks at how changing the gut microbiome (gut bacteria) may help people with pancreatic cancer regain strength and slow or reverse cancer-related weight loss (cachexia). It also studies gut bacteria differences in people with pancreatic cancer who are losing weight versus those whose weight is stable, and in healthy volunteers.
GenevaAges 18 years+ - NCT05613023RecruitingPhase 3
Short-course prostate and pelvic SBRT using 5 treatment sessions
This study compares two schedules of highly focused radiation (SBRT): 5 sessions to the prostate only, versus 5 sessions to the prostate and nearby pelvic lymph nodes. It aims to see which approach controls high-risk localized prostate cancer better while you also take hormone therapy.
CorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05644457Recruiting
Testing early blood or tissue signals to track head and neck treatment
This study looks for early “biomarkers” (signals in blood or tissue) to see how well head and neck cancer treatments are working over time. It may help doctors adjust treatment sooner based on those early signals.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05654454RecruitingPhase 3
Bevacizumab plus chemotherapy vs Avastin for advanced lung cancer
This trial compares a combination of anti-angiogenics (bevacizumab) plus chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin) against Avastin-based treatment in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to find out whether the study treatment is safer and works better for shrinking tumors and improving outcomes.
ArkhangelskAges 18 years+ - NCT05665504Recruiting
Biomarker test for managing early lung nodules after treatment
This study looks at lung “biomarkers” (test results from your nodule/tissue) to better predict risk of cancer coming back and to guide long-term follow-up. It may help doctors choose the best surveillance plan after surgery or other treatment for early, potentially curable lung cancer.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05671887Recruiting
Double lung transplant registry for certain lung-limited cancers
This study follows people who are getting a double lung transplant and have specific lung-only (or lung-limited) cancer or other serious lung conditions. It’s an observational registry, meaning it collects real-world information to learn which patients may benefit from transplant and how they do afterward.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–75 - NCT05673018Recruiting
Galleri blood test study in Medicare patients
This study looks at how a blood test called Galleri (and also how it compares when people have not yet had it) works for older adults with Medicare. It may help find whether the test can improve cancer detection or follow-up for people who are not already in urgent cancer workups.
Fort Smith, ArkansasAges 50 years+ - NCT05674825RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized treatment using tumor test results for aggressive cancers
This early-phase study tests whether a personalized cancer treatment plan based on your tumor’s test results can help people with aggressive cancers that are hard to treat. It may be an option if standard treatments didn’t work, aren’t possible for you, or you have few treatment choices.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT05677022Recruiting
Posture and movement check during adapted exercise after breast cancer
This study looks at how a posture and movement assessment can help guide a tailored exercise program for people treated for non-metastatic breast cancer. It may help ensure the exercise is safer and more suited to your recovery needs.
MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT05683418RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new drug for PIK3CA-mutated HR+ HER2- breast cancer
This early-stage study tests the safety and tolerability of TOS-358 in women with HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has a specific gene change (PIK3CA). It may help learn whether this targeted treatment is safe enough to move forward.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05687604Recruiting
Telehealth program to reduce cancer risk behaviors
This trial offers a scalable telehealth (phone/video) program to help people improve cancer risk habits like low physical activity, higher body weight, and smoking. It may help by giving structured coaching and support in the privacy of your home.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05690581RecruitingPhase 1
CM369 for advanced cancers with special immune marker in tumors
This Phase 1 study tests how safe and tolerable CM369 is in people with advanced solid tumors or blood cancers. It also looks at how the drug behaves in the body and whether it can help shrink or control cancer, especially when a tumor marker called CCR8 is present.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05704530Recruiting
Liquid blood tests for early esophageal cancer
This trial studies how well “liquid biopsy” blood tests can work in people with newly diagnosed, operable esophageal cancer. It may help doctors monitor the cancer and guide treatment planning alongside standard care.
AntwerpAges 18 years+ - NCT05715684Recruiting
Pre-surgery preparation program for people having bladder removal
This study tests a patient-centered coaching and preparation program before bladder surgery (cystectomy) to help you get ready for surgery and recovery. It may be especially helpful for people having urinary diversion using an ileal conduit or ileal neobladder.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT05726370RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus chemo before surgery for recurrent head and neck cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether giving pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) plus chemotherapy before curative surgery can improve outcomes for people with resectable, recurrent head and neck squamous cell cancer. It also studies how these treatments affect the tumor and immune response using required tissue and blood samples.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05727176RecruitingPhase 2
Futibatinib for advanced bile duct cancer with FGFR2 changes
This trial tests futibatinib, a targeted pill, in people with advanced (unresectable) or metastatic bile duct cancer that has an FGFR2 fusion or rearrangement. It may help shrink tumors after standard chemotherapy has stopped working.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05728268RecruitingPhase 2
Test dose-dense chemo before surgery for high-growth hormone-positive breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests a faster, more frequent chemotherapy schedule given before surgery (neoadjuvant therapy) for certain breast cancers that grow quickly. It may help shrink the tumor before the operation and improve treatment response in people who fit the tumor and health criteria.
Shantou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT05732389RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy for early rectal cancer with dMMR or MSI
This trial studies whether immunotherapy (nivolumab plus ipilimumab) can help people with early-stage rectal cancer that has dMMR or MSI changes. It’s meant for patients who have not yet had chemotherapy, radiation, or immunotherapy for colorectal cancer.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT05740033Recruiting
Closing the radial forearm donor site after mouth surgery
This study looks at how best to close the skin area on the forearm after surgeons take tissue to rebuild part of the mouth. If you need a radial forearm tissue reconstruction, you may be asked about outcomes afterward using English questionnaires.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05753566RecruitingPhase 2
Rezvilutamide for prostate cancer PSA rise after prostate surgery
This Phase 2 study tests rezvilutamide in men whose prostate-specific antigen (PSA) starts rising again after the prostate has been removed. It aims to see whether this treatment can help prevent or slow cancer spread after surgery, especially in men without signs of spread on scans.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 40 years+ - NCT05753618RecruitingPhase 4
Skipping growth-factor shots during breast cancer chemotherapy
This trial tests whether patients can safely skip a preventive white-blood-cell growth shot (G-CSF) while receiving a common breast cancer chemotherapy regimen. It may help reduce injections and side effects, while watching closely for fevers and low white blood counts.
Kingston, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05754580Recruiting
Boost radiation for intermediate or higher-risk prostate cancer
This study tests a stronger, focused radiation plan for intermediate to higher-risk prostate cancer. It combines a high-dose internal radiation “boost” with external radiation to try to improve cancer control while keeping side effects manageable.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 19 years+ - NCT05790213RecruitingPhase 2
Hormone therapy plus targeted prostate treatment for intermediate cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether combining hormone treatment (androgen deprivation therapy) with focal ablation (targeted destruction of prostate tissue) controls intermediate-risk prostate cancer. It may help some men avoid or reduce more aggressive treatment, while still aiming for cancer control.
