This Phase 2 study tests pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy medicine) together with induction chemotherapy before the main cancer treatment for stage III/IVA head and neck squamous cell cancer. It aims to improve how well the tumor responds and how long people can stay controlled.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT05323201RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
B7H3 CAR-T therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests an immune therapy made from your own blood cells (CAR-T) to treat advanced, unresectable liver cancer. It’s designed for people whose tumor has a specific marker called B7H3 and who meet blood, organ, and safety requirements.
Xuzhou, JiangsuAges 18–70 - NCT05343325RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant low-dose radiation with chemo-immunotherapy for head and neck cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether giving low-dose radiation before surgery—along with chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug—can work better and be safe for treating locally advanced head and neck squamous cell cancer. It may help shrink tumors before surgery and reduce the chance of the cancer coming back.
Zhuhai, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT05406856Recruiting
Adaptive proton therapy for cervical cancer with chemo
This trial tests whether an “adaptive” type of radiation planning using proton therapy and MRI-guided brachytherapy can improve treatment for people with cervical cancer. It aims to deliver curative treatment more precisely while still combining it with chemotherapy (cisplatin) when appropriate.
LeidenAges 18 years+ - NCT05440708RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed
This trial tests TTI-101, by itself and with other cancer medicines, for liver cancer that is advanced and cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see whether the treatment can slow the cancer down and improve outcomes.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05446467RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab before surgery for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial studies whether pembrolizumab, given before surgery, can improve outcomes for certain people with stage III–IVA head and neck squamous cell cancer. It’s typically added alongside low-dose PFAS as part of treatment leading up to standard surgery and afterward medicines/radiation.
Qingdao, ShandongAges 18–85 - NCT05479409RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation before surgery for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests whether giving radiation therapy before surgery helps people with locally advanced breast cancer that hasn't been removed with chemotherapy. It may offer a new option for those who cannot have surgery right away.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05523947RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for HER2-positive solid tumors, with dose changes
This early-stage study tests YH32367, a drug for people whose cancer is HER2-positive. It aims to find a safe dose and see whether it can shrink HER2-positive cancers that have spread or are hard to treat.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05600127RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy then immunotherapy plus surgery for advanced bladder cancer
This Phase 2 study tests giving standard chemotherapy first, then immunotherapy, followed by major surgery to remove the bladder/urinary tumor and nearby lymph nodes. It’s for people with locally advanced urothelial cancer whose cancer has at least not worsened after initial chemotherapy.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT05628922RecruitingPhase 2
Blood EBV DNA–guided therapy for advanced nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests a treatment approach for people with locally advanced nasopharyngeal cancer using their blood EBV DNA level (a cancer-related virus marker). It may help doctors choose and adjust therapy based on how much of this marker is in your blood after standard treatment.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05692635RecruitingPhase 2
Brain MRI checks to prevent lung cancer brain symptoms
This trial tests whether doing scheduled brain MRI scans can lower the chance that lung cancer later causes symptomatic brain metastases (tumors that cause symptoms in the brain). If you’re eligible, you’ll get brain MRI surveillance at a specific time after starting radiation.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05752136RecruitingPhase 3
Pre-surgery radiation plus immunotherapy and chemo for rectal cancer
This trial tests whether a short course of radiation before surgery, combined with the immunotherapy drug envafolimab and the chemo regimen CAPEOX, works better for shrinking locally advanced rectal cancer. It is aimed at people whose tumor is not “MMR-deficient” (it is pMMR/MSS), and it asks participants to be able to return for repeated checkups and treatments.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT05760391Recruiting
Check anti-PD-1 therapy plus radiation for advanced esophageal cancer
This trial studies whether adding an anti-PD-1 immunotherapy (with chemotherapy) together with radiation can help people with advanced esophageal squamous cell cancer. It’s for cases where surgery or standard definitive chemoradiation can’t be done, or the cancer has spread to distant sites.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT05768503RecruitingPhase 3
Test new drugs after colorectal cancer chemotherapy
This Phase 3 trial compares a new treatment combination (chidamide plus sintilimab plus bevacizumab) versus the standard second-line chemotherapy (FOLFIRI plus bevacizumab) for advanced colorectal cancer that is microsatellite stable/low. It aims to see which treatment works better and is safer for people whose cancer grew after first-line oxaliplatin-based therapy.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT05772481Recruiting
PET-MRI scan test for rectal cancer after pre-surgery treatment
This study looks at whether a special scan called PET-MRI can better show how rectal cancer responds to treatment given before surgery. If it works well, it could help doctors plan the right next steps after chemoradiotherapy.
StrasbourgAges 18–75 - NCT05785039RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug for advanced bladder and other solid cancers
This Phase 2 trial tests BL-B01D1 to treat people with advanced or metastatic urothelial (urinary tract) cancer and other solid tumors. You may be eligible if standard treatments are no longer working or are not available, and you can meet safety and cancer-measurement requirements.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05854823Recruiting
Reduced radiation after surgery for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial looks at whether giving less (de-escalated) radiation after surgery is as effective and safer for people with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma who had a strong response to treatment before surgery. If you had no remaining cancer or only very small amounts of cancer left in the surgical specimen, this approach may help reduce side effects while keeping control of the disease.
Zhuhai, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT05944237RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Early trial for advanced cancers using HTL0039732
This is a Phase 1/2 study testing how well HTL0039732 works and is tolerated in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It may help by offering a new treatment option and learning which cancer types and body markers respond best.
CambridgeAges 18 years+ - NCT05965856RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two antibody medicines for advanced bladder and other cancers
This Phase 2 trial studies whether the study medicines SI-B003 alone or together with BL-B01D1 plus SI-B003 can shrink or control advanced cancers that have not responded to standard treatment (or where standard treatment isn’t possible). It also looks at safety and how well the treatment works in people whose cancer can be measured on scans.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05994365Recruiting
Testing anlotinib for advanced thyroid cancer that resists radioactive iodine
