CAR T cell therapy for mesothelin-positive solid tumors
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (CAR T-cells) designed to target cancer cells that have a protein called mesothelin but have lost a marker that lets them hide from the immune system. It's for people with advanced solid tumors who have already tried standard treatments.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06812728RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo and radiation before surgery for advanced rectal cancer
This trial tests giving a strong chemotherapy combination (FOLFIRINOX) followed by radiation before surgery for locally advanced rectal cancer. If you have stage 3 or high-risk stage 2 rectal cancer that has not spread, this approach may shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Shibīn al Kawm, MenoufiaAges 18–70 - NCT07534852Recruiting
Nutrition and exercise support for colon cancer surgery patients
This study tests whether nutrition support and exercise help patients with early-stage colon cancer recover better after surgery. Researchers will provide dietary guidance and a supervised exercise program tailored to your needs.
