Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05517811Recruiting
Blood test changes before and after cancer surgery
This study measures a blood test (TEG) before and after surgery to see how it changes in people with certain cancers. It may help doctors better understand recovery and risk around the time of surgery.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–99 - NCT04687631RecruitingPhase 3
Study drug for colorectal cancer that spread to the liver
This Phase 3 trial tests a treatment approach for colorectal cancer that cannot be removed with surgery at first but has spread only to the liver. It is intended for people whose tumor is RAS/BRAF “wild-type” and who are well enough to do daily activities, to see if the treatment can control the cancer better.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04842812RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized immune cell therapy for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 study tests engineered immune cells (TILs/CAR-TILs) made from your tumor to treat advanced solid cancers that have not responded to standard treatments. It may help your immune system better recognize and attack the cancer, but it is mainly focused on safety and early results.
GuangzhouAges 18–85 - NCT06126419Recruiting
High-dose insulin for liver function after surgery
This trial tests if high-dose insulin can help your liver work better and heal faster after a major liver surgery for colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06848842RecruitingPhase 2
Ivonescimab and chemotherapy for colorectal cancer that spread only to the liver
This trial tests a new drug called ivonescimab combined with chemotherapy for people whose colorectal cancer has spread only to the liver and cannot be surgically removed right away. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink the tumors enough to allow surgery or other treatments.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07751783Recruiting
Exercise program for cancer survivors
This trial helps people who have finished cancer treatment start a supervised exercise routine to improve their health. It tests whether a structured program with professional guidance is safe and helpful.
Kaohsiung, TaiwanAges 18–80 - NCT06658782Recruiting
MRI vs ultrasound for liver cancer detection in high-risk people
This trial compares two types of scans to see which detects liver cancer better in people at high risk. You would receive either an MRI with contrast or an ultrasound every 6 months to monitor for liver cancer.
Oxford, OxonAges 18 years+ - NCT06356584RecruitingPhase 2
