Recruiting studies
- 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+ - NCT03334708Recruiting
Blood test study for pancreatic cancer
This study looks at blood tests to find markers that may help detect and monitor pancreatic cancer. It compares people with pancreatic cancer to those with benign pancreatic conditions and healthy volunteers.
Middletown, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT03245411Recruiting
Helps cancer patients take oral medicines as prescribed
This study tests a set of practical support steps to help people with advanced cancer take their oral (by mouth) treatment medicines correctly. It may help improve adherence and reduce missed doses or appointments.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02813135RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted cancer treatment chosen by a tumor’s genetic findings
This early-phase trial tests a treatment plan that uses results from genetic testing of your tumor to choose the best targeted therapy. It may help people whose cancer has come back or does not respond to standard treatment by matching treatment to specific tumor changes.
CopenhagenAges Up to 18 years - NCT04209504Recruiting
Nerve block study for one-sided breathing muscle weakness after shoulder surgery
This trial tests whether a longer-lasting nerve block during shoulder surgery can better manage pain and affect one-sided diaphragm (breathing muscle) weakness. It may help people having planned (first-time) shoulder surgery who are able to follow study pain-checks.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18–80 - NCT05392413Recruiting
Predicting who benefits from PD-1 antibody for esophageal cancer
This study uses an “immune indicator model” to help predict how well a PD-1 antibody (a cancer-fighting immune drug) works when combined with chemotherapy for stage IV esophageal squamous cell cancer. If you qualify, you receive the treatment and the researchers also look for immune-related signs that may explain who benefits most.
GuangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT04681469RecruitingPhase 2
Niraparib plus immunotherapy for HPV-negative head and neck cancer
This Phase 2 study tests a cancer “induction then maintenance” plan using a PARP inhibitor (niraparib) along with immunotherapy (TSR-042) in people with HPV-negative head and neck squamous cell cancer. If it works, it may improve control of the cancer after surgery by boosting the immune system and targeting cancer cells’ DNA repair.
BresciaAges 18 years+ - NCT05617456Recruiting
Test new ablation technology for treating irregular heart rhythm
This study tests advanced technology to improve how atrial fibrillation (AFib) is treated with a heart ablation procedure. It may help patients who are already advised to have AFib ablation by seeing how well the approach works in real clinical practice.
PisaAges Any age - NCT05718492Recruiting
Tested HAIC for liver cancer after prior immunotherapy
This trial studies HAIC, a type of targeted treatment delivered into the liver, for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer) that has already been treated with immune and anti-blood-vessel therapies. It aims to see whether HAIC can help control the cancer safely after those earlier treatments.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT04047953Recruiting
Chemo for stomach cancer to make tumors easier to remove
This trial tests a combination chemotherapy plan—paclitaxel (albumin-bound), oxaliplatin, and S-1 given before surgery—to try to shrink stomach cancer and improve the chance of successful tumor removal. It is for people whose cancer is locally advanced or has spread, but might still be resectable (removable) in certain cases.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04992559RecruitingPhase 2
Toripalimab after surgery and chemoradiation for head and neck cancer
This trial studies toripalimab to lower the risk of the cancer coming back after surgery and additional chemo-radiation. It may help the immune system “finish the job” after your main treatment, especially if you have higher-risk features.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT05640609RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stomach cancer study using chemo plus immunotherapy plus targeted drug
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a combination treatment for advanced or metastatic stomach and food-pipe (gastroesophageal junction) cancer: a chemotherapy regimen (CapeOX) plus the immunotherapy drug sintilimab and the targeted drug bevacizumab. It aims to see how well this combination controls the cancer and how safely it can be given.
ChengduAges 18–70 - NCT05917431RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus immunotherapy and targeted pills for liver cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether a combination of SBRT (focused radiation) plus tislelizumab and regorafenib can control unresectable or limited-spread liver cancer. It may help by attacking tumors in the liver and immune system to improve shrinkage and control of disease.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05961761RecruitingPhase 2
Testing propranolol plus pembrolizumab for advanced sarcoma
This Phase 2 trial tests whether combining propranolol (a blood-pressure/heart medicine) with pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) can help people with advanced angiosarcoma or undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma that has progressed after first-line chemotherapy. It aims to slow tumor growth and improve outcomes while also studying tumor markers from your biopsy tissue.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT05264896RecruitingPhase 3
Stomach cancer surgery plus two chemo plans
This trial compares two chemotherapy schedules around stomach cancer surgery: giving chemo before and after surgery (FLOT) versus giving chemo after surgery (XELOX). It’s meant to see which plan works better and is easier to tolerate for locally advanced disease that has not spread.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT05980702RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing 2 vs 4 rounds of chemo-immunotherapy before surgery for head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether 2 or 4 cycles of pembrolizumab (immunotherapy) plus carboplatin and nab-paclitaxel (chemotherapy) before surgery works better for people with advanced head and neck cancer that can be removed. The goal is to see if fewer treatments are just as effective.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06019702RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized mRNA vaccine for advanced digestive cancers
This trial tests a personalized mRNA vaccine designed to target unique markers on your cancer cells. The vaccine is made just for you based on genetic testing of your tumor. It is for people with advanced digestive system cancers who have run out of standard options.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06026800RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized mRNA vaccine plus standard treatment for advanced digestive cancers
This trial tests a personalized mRNA vaccine (iNeo-Vac-R01) given alongside standard first-line treatment for advanced digestive system cancers. The vaccine is made specifically for your tumor's unique genetic changes (neoantigens) and aims to help your immune system fight the cancer more effectively.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06070740RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab Plus Chemo for Advanced Gastrointestinal NEC
This trial tests a combination of durvalumab (an immunotherapy drug) plus a chemotherapy called XELOX as the first treatment for advanced gastrointestinal neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC). It aims to see if the combination works better than chemo alone.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06072989RecruitingPhase 1
B4T2-001 CAR-T infusions for solid tumors without chemo
This trial tests a new kind of cell therapy called CAR-T that targets a protein called BT-001 on solid tumors. It uses repeat infusions and avoids the strong chemotherapy usually given before treatment, which may be easier to tolerate.
Shanghai, China/ShanghaiAges 18–70 - NCT06152757RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Cell therapy for advanced gastrointestinal cancers
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy (BGT007H cells) for people with advanced gastrointestinal cancers that have not responded to at least two standard treatments. The therapy uses your own immune cells that are modified to target and attack the cancer.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT06156527RecruitingPhase 2
Lazertinib alone vs lazertinib plus Avastin for EGFR+ lung cancer in smokers
This trial tests if adding bevacizumab (Avastin) to lazertinib works better than lazertinib alone for advanced non-small cell lung cancer with an EGFR mutation. It is for people who have smoked at least 100 cigarettes in their lifetime.
