This trial compares giving breast radiation over one week versus three weeks after surgery. It aims to see whether the shorter schedule works just as well and is safe for people with certain types of early breast cancer.
Kolkata, West BengalAges 18 years+ - NCT03841617RecruitingPhase 2
Measure radiation in thyroid cancer using a special PET-CT scan
This trial tests how much radiation a specialized whole-body PET/CT scan delivers in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer. It may help doctors better plan treatment for cancer that persists, returns, or has spread—especially when radioactive iodine (RAI) may or may not work.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–90 - NCT03926338RecruitingPhase 2
Before-surgery immunotherapy for MSI-H or dMMR colon cancer
This trial studies a treatment given before surgery using toripalimab, with or without celecoxib, for colon or rectal cancer that has MSI-H or dMMR tumor features. It aims to shrink or control the cancer before the operation and compare whether adding celecoxib helps.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT03971045RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus low-dose oral chemo for chest wall breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) plus low-dose oral cyclophosphamide in people with chest wall breast cancer that has spread locally and may have distant metastases. It aims to see if this combination can shrink tumors and control cancer longer, especially in tumors with certain immune markers.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT03847649RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab for cancer after stopping immune therapy due to side effects
This Phase 2 trial tests whether durvalumab (an immunotherapy) can still help treat advanced cancer after you had to stop an earlier immune checkpoint medicine because of immune-related side effects. If you’re already on a durvalumab-based study, Substudy B also looks at continuing durvalumab (with or without tremelimumab) when it’s safe for you.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT05533697RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
mRNA medicine with or without immunotherapy for advanced solid cancers
This Phase 1/2 study tests an mRNA vaccine (mRNA-4359) either alone or combined with an immune checkpoint antibody (immunotherapy). It’s for people with advanced solid tumors to see if it can shrink tumors and how safe it is.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT04145622RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Ifinatamab deruxtecan for advanced hard-to-treat solid cancers
This early-stage trial tests an investigational antibody-drug medicine (ifinatamab deruxtecan) in people with advanced solid tumors. It aims to see whether it can shrink tumors or help control cancer, and to learn about side effects and the best way to use it.
