Study of RNDO-564 alone or with pembrolizumab for bladder cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug, RNDO-564, either by itself or combined with another drug (pembrolizumab), for people with advanced bladder cancer or other solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05940896RecruitingPhase 1
HER2-targeted drug with radiation for non-surgical solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests a HER2-targeted antibody drug (RC48-ADC) given with radiation in people with locally advanced solid tumors that cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to find a safe way to use the treatment and see how well it works in cancers that have HER2 protein on their cells.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT05980715RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing immunotherapy to radiation after successful treatment for head and neck cancer
This trial looks at whether giving an immunotherapy drug (a PD-1 inhibitor) after surgery is better than giving radiation therapy for people with advanced head and neck cancer who had a complete response to chemotherapy and immunotherapy before surgery. The goal is to prevent the cancer from coming back.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT06524167Recruiting
Radiation therapy after surgery for advanced thyroid cancer
This study looks at whether adding radiation therapy after surgery can help people with thyroid cancer that is at high risk of coming back. It includes different types of thyroid cancer, like differentiated and medullary types.
ShanghaiAges 14–80 - NCT06558981RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation therapy after thyroid surgery for high-risk cancer
This trial is testing whether giving radiation therapy after thyroid surgery can help destroy any leftover cancer cells in people with high-risk differentiated thyroid cancer. It is for those who had surgery but some cancer was still left behind.
ShanghaiAges 14–80 - NCT05944237RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Early trial for advanced cancers using HTL0039732
This is a Phase 1/2 study testing how well HTL0039732 works and is tolerated in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It may help by offering a new treatment option and learning which cancer types and body markers respond best.
CambridgeAges 18 years+ - NCT04930432RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
MCLA-129 for advanced EGFR- and MET-positive lung and other cancers
This early-phase trial tests MCLA-129, an antibody that targets EGFR and MET, in people with advanced cancers that have specific lab “biomarker” results. It’s for patients whose cancer has grown after standard treatments or can’t take standard treatment, with the goal of shrinking tumors and improving symptoms.
BaodingAges 18 years+ - NCT07124000Recruiting
T-DXd for advanced HER2-positive solid tumors
This trial is for people with advanced HER2-positive solid tumors (cancers that cannot be removed by surgery or have spread). It tests the drug T-DXd (also called Enhertu) when your doctor has already decided it's the right treatment for you and you have no other good options.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–130 - NCT07020117RecruitingPhase 1
Study of AKY-1189 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new radioactive drug, AKY-1189, for people with solid tumors that have spread or cannot be removed. It may help if other treatments have stopped working.

Study testing new drug combinations for advanced cancers
This study tests new drug combinations for people with various advanced cancers that have progressed after standard treatment, or in some cases, as a first treatment. It aims to see if these combinations are safe and effective. The study is divided into groups based on cancer type and treatment history, so not everyone will qualify for every group.
AichiAges 18 years+ - NCT03787056Recruiting
Blood test marker study in many cancer types
This study measures a blood marker called progastrin (at diagnosis and during treatment) to see how well it predicts response or outcomes. It may help doctors choose or monitor treatment more precisely for several cancer types.

Penpulimab plus cetuximab for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial studies penpulimab (an immune medicine) combined with cetuximab (an antibody drug) for recurrent or metastatic squamous cell head and neck cancer that cannot be treated with surgery or radiation. It aims to shrink tumors and improve survival in people whose tumor shows a specific immune marker (PD-L1).

Testing treatment after head and neck cancer response to chemo-immunotherapy
This Phase 2 study looks at what treatment is best after you first receive chemotherapy plus immunotherapy, then have surgery for head and neck squamous cell cancer. It tries to use how your tumor responds (shown in lab tissue after treatment) to guide the next steps, which may improve outcomes.

Ixovex-1 injection alone or with another drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental injection called Ixovex-1, either alone or with another drug (pembrolizumab), for people with advanced solid tumors that can be injected. It is for those who have run out of standard options and have tumors that are not too deep inside the body.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06579248RecruitingEarly Phase 1
