HerlevAges 18 years+ - NCT04151940Recruiting
PET/CT scan changes during chemo with immune therapy
This study looks at how PET/CT scan results change while you receive chemo plus an immune therapy (a PD-1/PD-L1 medicine) for stage IV lung cancer. The goal is to better understand what the scans mean during treatment, which may help guide care in the future.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT04158843Recruiting
Local surgery vs comfort treatment for limited breast cancer spread
This trial compares a more direct local treatment (targeting a small, limited spot) versus a comfort-focused palliative approach for breast cancer that has spread only to one side of the upper arm bone or breastbone area. It aims to see which approach works better while keeping side effects manageable.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT04159142RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two chemo combos for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial compares two chemotherapy combinations to see which works better for advanced triple-negative breast cancer. You would be asked to join one treatment arm based on study assignment and be followed for response and side effects.
Shijiazhuang, HebeiAges 18–70 - NCT04161664RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo for metastatic vulvar cancer with carboplatin and paclitaxel
This trial studies how well carboplatin plus paclitaxel chemotherapy works for vulvar squamous cell cancer that has spread. It may help shrink tumors and control cancer growth in people who are not able to be fully treated with local surgery.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT04166409RecruitingPhase 3
Selumetinib versus chemo for low-grade brain tumor in children
This trial studies whether the targeted drug selumetinib works better than standard chemotherapy (carboplatin and vincristine) for children and young adults with a specific type of low-grade glioma (grade 1 or 2). It may help shrink tumors and slow growth while comparing side effects between the two treatment approaches.
