This Phase 1/2 trial tests how well a combination of targeted medicines works for advanced or returning HR+/HER2- breast cancer that has a PI3K pathway change (such as PIK3CA, PTEN, or AKT1). It may help by blocking growth signals in the cancer and is especially for people whose cancer has progressed after hormone therapy and a CDK4/6 inhibitor.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05398861RecruitingPhase 2
Testing utidelone plus bevacizumab for HER2-negative advanced breast cancer
This trial studies whether utidelone combined with bevacizumab can shrink tumors and slow progression in women with advanced HER2-negative breast cancer that has already been treated at least twice. It may help people who have limited options after earlier chemotherapy and/or hormone (endocrine) treatments.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–70 - NCT05361798RecruitingPhase 2
Testing immune response after prostate radiation with or without a drug
This study checks how your immune system’s cancer-fighting cells change after stereotactic body radiation (SBRT) to the prostate. It compares SBRT alone versus SBRT plus an immunotherapy drug (PDS01ADC) in men with intermediate- or high-risk localized prostate cancer treated with hormone therapy (ADT).
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05358548RecruitingPhase 2
Alternating treatment for advanced lung and head-neck cancers
This Phase 2 study tests an approach that alternates treatments for advanced lung cancer or recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell cancer. It may help by improving how well the cancer responds while managing side effects differently than standard back-to-back therapy.
Elizabeth, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05321134Recruiting
Testing single-port robot surgery for colorectal conditions
This study checks how well a newer single-opening (single-port) robot works for colorectal surgery. It may help surgeons perform operations with the robotic system in carefully selected colorectal conditions.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05305924RecruitingPhase 2
Fulvestrant plus abemaciclib for ER+, HER2− advanced breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding abemaciclib to fulvestrant can slow or shrink ER-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. It is mainly for people whose cancer has progressed despite prior treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor and an aromatase inhibitor.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05263050RecruitingPhase 2
Trial tests a new cabozantinib schedule for kidney and neuroendocrine tumors
This Phase 2 study tests a different dosing schedule of cabozantinib (a cancer medicine) for metastatic kidney cancer and certain neuroendocrine tumors. It aims to see if the timing and schedule can work well for people with advanced disease.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05239546RecruitingPhase 2
Dostarlimab before colon surgery for mismatch-repair–deficient cancer
This study tests dostarlimab given before surgery for stage II or III colon cancer that has a specific DNA repair defect. It aims to shrink or control the cancer so that some people may be able to skip surgery if the results are good.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18 years+ - NCT05256745RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2

Treatment approach study for stage III inflammatory breast cancer
This study looks at how to best plan local treatments (like surgery and/or radiation) for people with stage III inflammatory breast cancer. It may help doctors refine care plans for this aggressive subtype by studying how patients are treated and what outcomes they have.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05029999RecruitingPhase 1
Test drugs for HER2-negative advanced breast cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a combination of immune-targeting drugs (a CD40 medicine and a substance that helps immune cells act) plus chemotherapy in people with HER2-negative advanced breast cancer that has progressed. It aims to find a safer dose and see whether the treatment can shrink tumors or slow the cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–99 - NCT04969315RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of two new drugs for advanced kidney, prostate, lung, or mesothelioma cancer
This study tests two new study drugs (TT-4 and TT-10) alone and together in people with certain advanced cancers that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if these drugs are safe and effective in shrinking tumors or slowing the cancer's growth.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04968964Recruiting
Monitoring test for CDK4/6 drugs in metastatic breast cancer
This study follows people with hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer who are taking CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment (with or without an added blood test called DiviTum®). The goal is to see how well the standard treatment is working and whether DiviTum® (a serum TK1 activity test) can help guide monitoring.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT04633252RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug plus docetaxel and abiraterone for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new targeted cancer drug (PDS01ADC) combined with standard treatments docetaxel and abiraterone for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and whether it can control cancer better than current approaches.
