Recruiting studies
- NCT05112991RecruitingPhase 2
Check whether envafolimab plus lenvatinib helps advanced uterine cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether envafolimab alone or combined with lenvatinib can slow or shrink advanced endometrial (uterine) cancer. It’s for people whose cancer has grown again or spread and who didn’t do well with standard platinum chemotherapy.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05074290RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing safety and drug levels of a breast cancer drug plus taxane
This early-phase study tests how epidiferphane works in the body and whether it is safe when combined with standard chemotherapy “taxanes” (paclitaxel or docetaxel) for breast cancer. If you qualify, you may be starting a new taxane treatment plan at the study site, and you would be followed closely for side effects and drug levels.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–99 - NCT05085496RecruitingPhase 1
Radiation plus atezolizumab for advanced skin cancer
This Phase 1 trial studies adding atezolizumab (an immune therapy) to radiation for people with hard-to-remove or borderline-resectable cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC). The goal is to see whether this combination can better control the cancer and whether the treatment is safe.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05010031RecruitingPhase 2
Lower-dose radiation for metastatic cancer with an ATM mutation
This trial tests whether giving a lower dose of radiation can help control metastatic tumors that carry a specific genetic change in the ATM gene. It may reduce side effects by using less radiation, while still aiming to keep the tumor under control.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04921137RecruitingPhase 4
Testing benefits and side effects of hormone therapy in older breast cancer patients
This study looks at the potential harms and benefits of hormone (endocrine) therapy in people age 70 and older with early-stage, hormone-receptor–positive breast cancer. It may help doctors choose which hormone treatment approach is safest and most helpful for older patients.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 70 years+ - NCT04638725Recruiting
Genetics study to find why HER2 breast cancer treatment varies
This study looks at genetic factors to understand why some people’s HER2-positive breast cancer responds better—or has more side effects—after treatment. Your info and possible past treatment history may help researchers improve how HER2 treatment is chosen and managed.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT04517266Recruiting
Testing less radiation to the inner breast area
This trial studies whether some patients with early-stage breast cancer can safely skip a specific part of radiation to the inner chest (called internal mammary irradiation). It may reduce radiation side effects while still aiming to prevent the cancer from coming back.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT04133077Recruiting
Biobank study using tumor tissue to grow patient tumor models
This study takes small samples of your breast tumor tissue after (or during) treatment and grows them in lab animals to better study breast cancer. It may help researchers test future ideas for treating aggressive breast cancer types like triple-negative or Luminal B.
Clermont-Ferrand, Puy-de-DômeAges 18 years+ - NCT02290834Recruiting
Studying brain and thinking changes after chemotherapy in older breast cancer patients
This study looks at how chemotherapy may affect memory and thinking, using thinking tests and possibly brain imaging. It compares older breast cancer patients who do and do not get chemotherapy, plus a group of healthy older adults.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 60 years+ - NCT06582017RecruitingPhase 1
Study of QXL138AM for advanced solid tumors and multiple myeloma
This trial tests an investigational drug called QXL138AM for people with advanced solid tumors or multiple myeloma that has not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07814248RecruitingPhase 1
TS-104 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called TS-104 for people with certain advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The drug is given alone (not with other cancer treatments) to see if it can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Maumee, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07469709Recruiting
Cancer risk study using genetics and monitoring
This study looks at genetic and other factors in people with certain cancers to better understand personal cancer risks and improve monitoring. It may help find ways to detect changes earlier.
Candiolo, TurinAges 18 years+ - NCT07433283RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Iron nanoparticle injection for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new treatment for advanced solid tumors that uses tiny iron particles guided by carbon nanoparticles, injected directly into the tumor. It may be an option if standard treatments have stopped working or aren't available, and you have a tumor that can be safely injected.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07104630RecruitingPhase 2
Pulmonary rehab for advanced lung cancer
This study tests a pulmonary rehabilitation program—special exercises and breathing training—to help people with advanced lung cancer feel less short of breath and improve their daily function and quality of life.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06420206Recruiting
Goals of care discussion in the ER for advanced cancer
This study is for people with advanced lung or GI cancer who come to the emergency room at MD Anderson. It’s testing a conversation to help you and your doctor discuss your goals and wishes for care.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05000294RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Atezolizumab plus tivozanib for hard-to-treat “cold” cancers
This early-stage study tests whether combining atezolizumab and tivozanib can shrink advanced, hard-to-treat cancers that do not strongly activate the immune system (“immunologically cold”). It is for people whose cancer has already been treated or has no good standard options.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–99 - NCT03977233RecruitingPhase 2
Biopsies and FOLFIRINOX for non-metastatic pancreatic cancer
This Phase 2 study looks at different types (subtypes) of pancreatic tumors in people treated with FOLFIRINOX, a chemotherapy. It requires tumor biopsies before and after treatment to see how the tumor changes, which may help doctors better match treatments in the future.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–99 - NCT06431100Recruiting
A study of TRT therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new cell therapy called TRTs for people with advanced cancers like stomach, esophagus, cervical, breast, or lung cancer that no longer respond to standard treatments. The therapy uses your own tumor tissue or fluid to create a personalized treatment.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–75 - NCT06830018Recruiting
New megestrol for advanced stomach or colon cancer with fatigue
This study tests a new form of megestrol (a medicine that can boost appetite and energy) for people with advanced stomach or colorectal cancer who also have fatigue and poor appetite. It is given as a first treatment, meaning you haven't had chemotherapy yet for your advanced cancer.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT06883539RecruitingPhase 1
Study of LXP1788 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called LXP1788 in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The goal is to see if it is safe and how it affects the body.
TaichungAges 18 years+ - NCT06096844RecruitingPhase 3
Chemotherapy plus immunotherapy vs. immunotherapy alone for older adults with lung cancer
This study compares getting both chemotherapy and immunotherapy versus immunotherapy alone for older adults with advanced lung cancer. The goal is to see which approach is more effective and tolerable for people aged 70 and older.
