Recruiting studies
- NCT04986423RecruitingPhase 2
Add ZEN003694 to enzalutamide for resistant prostate cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding ZEN003694 to enzalutamide works better than enzalutamide alone in men whose prostate cancer has spread and is no longer controlled by hormone lowering treatments. It focuses on people who either did not respond well to abiraterone (poor responders) or did respond (responders), then compares outcomes between treatment groups.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04983095Recruiting
Targeted radiation for a few prostate cancer metastases
This trial looks at whether a precise form of radiation (stereotactic body radiotherapy) can control a small number of prostate cancer spots seen on a special scan (PSMA PET/CT). It may help by treating limited metastases while avoiding unnecessary treatment elsewhere.
Lund, LundAges 18 years+ - NCT04989725RecruitingPhase 2
Precision radiation for a few new cancer spots while on treatment
This trial tests a precise, high-dose radiation technique (SABR) for people whose cancer has started to grow again in only a few spots despite ongoing medication. The goal is to control those new growths while continuing your current treatment.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT04997993RecruitingPhase 1
Leflunomide for PTEN-altered or HER2-negative metastatic cancers
This Phase 1 trial studies whether leflunomide can slow or control advanced (metastatic) cancers in people whose tumors have specific PTEN changes or who have HER2-negative breast cancer. It’s primarily a safety-and-dosing study, but it may offer benefit if your cancer matches the tumor marker requirements.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04916613RecruitingPhase 3
ADT plus darolutamide for vulnerable newly metastatic prostate cancer
This trial studies whether adding darolutamide to standard hormone therapy (ADT) helps men with newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer who are physically vulnerable. It aims to control the cancer better while checking safety and how well treatment is tolerated in this group.
CharleroiAges 18 years+ - NCT04704505RecruitingPhase 2
Testosterone-like treatment plus radium for bone-spread prostate cancer
This trial studies whether adding a testosterone-related therapy (BAT) to radium-223 can better control prostate cancer that has spread mainly to the bones. It may help shrink tumors in the bone and slow PSA rises, which are a common marker of prostate cancer activity.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04617522RecruitingPhase 1
Sacituzumab govitecan for advanced cancers with moderate liver issues
This Phase 1 study tests how safe and tolerable sacituzumab govitecan is for people with advanced or metastatic solid tumors who also have moderate liver impairment. It aims to find the right dosing so the treatment can be used more safely in this liver-risk group.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04614103RecruitingPhase 2
Immune cell therapy for advanced lung cancer after chemotherapy
This trial studies LN-145, a treatment made from your own immune cells, for metastatic (stage IV) non-small-cell lung cancer. It may help shrink tumors after your cancer has progressed despite standard first-line chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18–70 - NCT04680715RecruitingPhase 2
Tested radiation before and after breast surgery in older women
This Phase 2 trial looks at a specific radiation timing and technique around the time of breast-conserving surgery. It may help reduce the chance the cancer comes back in selected older patients with certain early-stage, hormone-positive, HER2-negative breast cancers.
Clermont-FerrandAges 65 years+ - NCT04068649RecruitingPhase 2
Single high-dose radiation vs standard palliative radiation
This Phase 2 study compares a one-time, high-dose radiation treatment (SBRT) with the usual, shorter-course palliative radiation. The goal is to see which approach better relieves symptoms from metastatic (spread) cancer.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03972657RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new prostate and kidney cancer drug with immunotherapy
This early trial tests whether REGN5678 (nezastomig) is safe and how well it works, either by itself or with an immunotherapy drug (cemiplimab). It targets adults with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer and certain metastatic kidney cancers that have already been treated.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03998202Recruiting
Study of chemotherapy side effects in older colorectal cancer patients
This study looks at how chemotherapy and immunotherapy affect the body in older adults with colorectal cancer, especially early side effects. It may help researchers understand why some people lose strength and how to better predict and manage treatment toxicity.
Millville, DelawareAges 60 years+ - NCT03275311Recruiting
Care approach changes for metastatic breast cancer
This trial looks at how treatment care for metastatic breast cancer has evolved over time. You may be eligible if you are an adult receiving active cancer treatment in a comprehensive cancer center in France.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT01762813Recruiting
Study of blood/tissue markers in colorectal cancer surgery patients
This study looks at colorectal cancer patients who are planning curative surgery and collects related outcomes and lab “biomarker” information to better understand the disease. Your participation may help researchers connect test results to treatment results over time.
StavangerAges 18 years+ - NCT07814248RecruitingPhase 1
TS-104 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called TS-104 for people with certain advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The drug is given alone (not with other cancer treatments) to see if it can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Maumee, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07625644RecruitingPhase 3
New immunotherapy combination for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called BL-M14D1 combined with atezolizumab (an immunotherapy) against standard chemotherapy for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer, a serious type of lung cancer that has spread. The goal is to see if this combination helps patients live longer and control their cancer better.
Springdale, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT07222215RecruitingPhase 2
Capacitabine with or without elacestrant for ER+ breast cancer
This trial tests if adding a new oral targeted therapy (elacestrant) to standard chemotherapy (capecitabine) works better than chemotherapy alone for people with a specific type of advanced breast cancer that is hormone-sensitive (ER-positive) and has stopped responding to hormone therapy.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07179692RecruitingPhase 1
CEA-targeted CAR-T therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a type of immunotherapy called CAR-T, which is designed to recognize and attack cancer cells that have a protein called CEA on their surface.
