Recruiting studies
- NCT07287995RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of ASP2998 alone or with other therapies for solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, ASP2998, given alone or with standard cancer treatments for people with advanced solid tumors, including certain types of lung, bladder, stomach, and breast cancers. The goal is to see if ASP2998 can help when other treatments have stopped working or are not an option.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07291037RecruitingPhase 3
Study of datopotamab deruxtecan vs docetaxel for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug, datopotamab deruxtecan, against a standard chemotherapy (docetaxel) for people with advanced non-squamous lung cancer that has gotten worse after previous treatment.

OsloAges 16 years+ - NCT03179540Recruiting
Watch-and-wait treatment after rectal cancer radiation
This trial looks at a “non-surgery” approach for some people with locally advanced rectal cancer who respond very well to radiation plus chemotherapy. If your cancer shows a complete clinical response on follow-up checks, the study may help you avoid an immediate major operation while closely monitoring you.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07404332RecruitingPhase 1
Combination therapy for tumors resistant to immunotherapy
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (5-Azacitidine and a PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor) for people whose solid tumors stopped responding to standard PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy alone. The goal is to see if this new combination can help shrink the tumor or slow its growth.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–99 - NCT07455032RecruitingPhase 1
Neoadjuvant therapy combo for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (CADI-05 and pembrolizumab) before surgery for people with a certain type of head and neck cancer that hasn't spread. The goal is to see if this treatment can help shrink the tumor before it is removed.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07457528RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo, radiation, and immune therapy before surgery for esophageal cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy, radiation, and two targeted drugs (serplulimab and nimotuzumab) given before surgery for a certain type of esophageal cancer. It aims to see if this approach can safely improve outcomes.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07469683RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for advanced kidney cancer after first-line treatment
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (SLC-3010 and axitinib) versus axitinib alone for people with advanced clear cell kidney cancer that has progressed after initial treatment. It aims to see if the combination is safer and more effective.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT07476170Recruiting
HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer treatment patterns in China
This study looks at the real-world treatment patterns and outcomes for people with HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer who started their first treatment in China between 2024 and 2027. It aims to understand what treatments are used and how well they work in everyday practice.
Bingjie, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–99 - NCT04589468Recruiting
Exercise for cancer survivors at high risk
This study tests whether a structured exercise program can help prevent cancer from coming back in people who have been treated for certain solid tumors (colorectal, ovarian, lung, or breast cancer). If you've completed surgery and adjuvant therapy within the past 2 years and are currently not exercising much, you may be eligible. Participation involves following an exercise plan and regular check-ins.
Durate, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05868226RecruitingPhase 1
Early cancer drug study for adults with advanced tumors
This Phase 1 study tests early (first-in-program) cancer medicines in people whose cancer has not been adequately controlled. It helps researchers learn the safest dose and early signs of whether the treatment may work for different tumor types and treatments.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06997068RecruitingPhase 2
Drug combination for returning head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—methotrexate, erlotinib, and celecoxib—for people whose head and neck cancer has come back or spread. It is designed for patients in the rural Midwest who have already had or chosen not to have standard first treatment.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06636734RecruitingPhase 2
Lovastatin plus pembrolizumab for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding lovastatin (a cholesterol-lowering drug) to pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) works better than pembrolizumab alone for head and neck cancer that has come back or spread. It's for people who haven't had immunotherapy before and aren't already on a statin.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06868433RecruitingPhase 1
TMV vaccine alone or with pembrolizumab for advanced HNSCC
This trial tests a vaccine made from your own tumor to help your immune system fight head and neck cancer that has returned or spread. It is given alone or with an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab) to see if it can shrink tumors or slow progression.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06500455RecruitingPhase 3
Standard vs longer radiation for brain metastases
This trial compares the usual short course of radiation therapy (one session) to a longer course (up to 5 sessions) for people with cancer that has spread to the brain. The goal is to see if the longer course works better and causes fewer side effects.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06589804RecruitingPhase 3
Testing cetuximab plus pembrolizumab for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding cetuximab to the standard drug pembrolizumab works better for head and neck cancer that has spread or come back after treatment. It is for people whose cancer did not respond to platinum chemotherapy and whose tumors have a certain immune marker (PD-L1).
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT07125729Recruiting
Early cancer detection test for colorectal cancer
This trial uses two blood tests (Signatera and Haystack) to look for tiny bits of cancer DNA after surgery, to find out if the cancer comes back as early as possible. People with stage II, III, or IV colorectal cancer who have had or will have surgery to remove their tumor may join.
