Study drugs for advanced small cell lung cancer after prior treatments
This Phase 2 trial tests how well two study drugs (and a combination of them) work in people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It’s mainly for patients whose cancer has come back or who couldn’t tolerate at least some standard treatments, and it aims to see if treatment can shrink tumors and be tolerable.
Changchun, JilinAges 18–75 - NCT05933239RecruitingPhase 2
PET-like scan using a special protein in lung cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether a new imaging medicine (a radiopharmaceutical) can highlight immune cells called macrophages in people with non-small cell lung cancer. It may help doctors better “see” and evaluate tumor tissue before a surgical biopsy or removal.
Jette, Brussels CapitalAges 18 years+ - NCT05884255RecruitingPhase 3
Lutetium brain-sparing therapy for advanced gut and pancreas tumors
This Phase 3 trial tests lutetium (Lu-177) oxodotreotide, a targeted treatment, for people with advanced gut and pancreas neuroendocrine tumors that are low or medium grade (G1 or G2). The study will see whether it helps control the cancer and symptoms in the right patients.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05886920RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for advanced cancers with specific MAPK changes
This Phase 1/2 study tests a new drug (D3S-002) to see if it can shrink or control advanced cancers that have certain MAPK pathway gene changes. It may help people whose cancer has progressed despite standard treatments, especially in a specific lung cancer group.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05547321RecruitingPhase 1
New cancer drug plus immunotherapy for advanced solid tumors
This early-phase trial studies OMTX705, given by itself or with an anti–PD-1 immune therapy, in people with advanced solid cancers that can’t be cured or that stopped responding to standard treatments. It aims to check safety and see whether the treatment can shrink tumors or control disease.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05568212RecruitingPhase 2
Trial of immune combination versus standard care for NSCLC relapse
This Phase 2 trial studies an immune-based drug combination compared with standard care for lung cancer that has come back after chemoradiation and durvalumab. It aims to improve control of the cancer after durvalumab is no longer working.
Roma, RMAges 18 years+ - NCT05790213RecruitingPhase 2
Hormone therapy plus targeted prostate treatment for intermediate cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether combining hormone treatment (androgen deprivation therapy) with focal ablation (targeted destruction of prostate tissue) controls intermediate-risk prostate cancer. It may help some men avoid or reduce more aggressive treatment, while still aiming for cancer control.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05811936Recruiting
SNAP support tool for head and neck cancer survivors and caregivers
