LVAD versus standard heart failure medicines in advanced patients
This trial compares an LVAD device (a pump placed in the chest) plus medicines versus medicines alone for people with advanced, end-stage heart failure. It aims to see which approach works better to help patients live and stay out of the hospital.
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT04792502RecruitingPhase 2
Mosunetuzumab plus lenalidomide for untreated follicular or marginal lymphoma
This Phase 2 study tests whether mosunetuzumab, added to lenalidomide, can treat people who have not yet received lymphoma medicines. It’s for follicular lymphoma or marginal zone lymphoma and may help shrink tumors and improve control of the disease.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT04857164RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy for recurrent or metastatic throat cancer
This trial tests whether pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) combined with chemotherapy works better as a first treatment for recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) in the oral/throat area. It aims to improve cancer control and help people live longer with fewer side effects than standard care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04872543RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug for nerve tumor caused by PRC2 loss
This Phase 2 trial studies ASTX727 in people with malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST) that have a specific genetic change (“PRC2 loss”). It aims to shrink or control advanced tumors that have not responded to at least one standard treatment, by testing how well the drug works and is tolerated.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 16 years+ - NCT04890613RecruitingPhase 1
CX-5461 for cancers with BRCA or HRD gene changes
This Phase 1 trial tests CX-5461, a new cancer medicine, in people with certain solid tumors that have BRCA1/2 or related “HRD” gene mutations. The goal is to find out how the drug works, what dose is tolerable, and whether it can help shrink tumors.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04902443RecruitingPhase 1
Pomalidomide plus nivolumab for virus-related cancers
This trial studies pomalidomide plus nivolumab in people with cancers linked to certain viruses (or hepatitis B/C). It may help the immune system fight the cancer when the disease has returned, progressed, or can’t be fully treated with standard options.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT04925609RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Brigatinib for young people with ALK-positive cancer
This trial tests brigatinib, a targeted pill medicine, in children and young adults with ALK-positive cancers (including ALCL and IMT, plus some other solid tumors). It’s designed to see how well it works and what side effects it causes in people whose tumors have a specific ALK change.
ParisAges 1–25 - NCT05874414RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Combination therapy for advanced KRAS-mutated bile duct cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs, GNS561 and trametinib, for people with advanced bile duct cancer (cholangiocarcinoma) that has a specific genetic change called a KRAS mutation. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow the disease after prior chemotherapy.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04954781RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus immunotherapy for advanced bile duct liver cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether a procedure called TACE combined with the immunotherapy drug tislelizumab can shrink advanced bile duct liver cancer and help you live longer. It is for people whose cancer cannot be removed and has progressed after at least one prior treatment.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04959175RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Lower post-transplant drug doses for older or unfit patients
This trial tests whether giving a lower dose of cyclophosphamide after a bone marrow transplant can be safer for older or medically “unfit” patients, while still helping control blood cancers. It is designed for people who can’t tolerate the usual strongest transplant preparation.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 12–85 - NCT04969835RecruitingPhase 1
Safety and early response study of AVA6000 for solid tumors
This Phase 1 study tests AVA6000 in people with certain solid tumor cancers, mainly to check safety and how the body processes the drug. It also looks for early signs of tumor response to see if it might help further in later studies.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT05097625Recruiting
Testing early detection of head and neck cancer relapse
This study aims to find signs of head and neck cancer coming back early, using scans/tests after you’ve had radical treatment. If you’re at higher risk and HPV-negative, this may help doctors catch relapse sooner.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05132504RecruitingPhase 2
Pre-surgery chemotherapy and immunotherapy for operable pancreatic cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests giving chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) before surgery, to shrink or control potentially removable pancreatic cancer. The goal is to improve outcomes while making sure the cancer can still be safely removed by surgery.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05147519Recruiting
Observes HIV and other infections to learn who gets them
This is an observational study that follows people to better understand how HIV and other infections (like sexually transmitted infections) happen and change over time. It may help researchers improve prevention and care, but it is mainly for monitoring rather than testing a new treatment.
Kericho, Kericho CountyAges 14–55 - NCT05168839RecruitingPhase 3
Using dye scans during surgery to help prevent leakage
This trial tests whether using a special dye and camera during colorectal cancer surgery can help lower the risk of a surgical “leak” where the bowel is joined. If you’re having a planned left-sided colectomy or high rectal resection, the scan may help surgeons see blood flow more clearly.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT05180864Recruiting
Omentum saving surgery versus full removal in stomach cancer
This study compares two ways of doing surgery for gastric (stomach) cancer: saving the omentum versus removing it completely. It may help doctors learn which approach is safer and works better for cancer control and recovery.
MainzAges 18 years+ - NCT05196334Recruiting
Testing pancreatic lab samples to guide future treatments
This study uses small pancreatic cancer samples grown in the lab to understand which treatments may work best for people with pancreatic cancer. It may help researchers better “profile” tumors so standard care can be matched to the most effective options.
Herlev, CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT05254327RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus or minus BMX-001 for advanced rectal cancer
This Phase 2 study tests two different ways of giving radiation before surgery for locally advanced rectal cancer, with or without an added study drug called BMX-001. It aims to see whether the shorter/longer radiation plans and BMX-001 improve cancer control and are safe.
