Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04086290RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Surgery plus targeted radiation for prostate cancer spread
This study looks at whether combining prostate surgery with a highly focused radiation treatment (SBRT) can control prostate cancer that has spread to a limited number of bones. It may help patients by treating the main tumor and the specific metastatic spots in a controlled way.
HerlevAges 18 years+ - NCT04158843Recruiting
Local surgery vs comfort treatment for limited breast cancer spread
This trial compares a more direct local treatment (targeting a small, limited spot) versus a comfort-focused palliative approach for breast cancer that has spread only to one side of the upper arm bone or breastbone area. It aims to see which approach works better while keeping side effects manageable.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT04481932RecruitingPhase 2
Trastuzumab with chemo for HER2-positive breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding trastuzumab (a targeted antibody) given with chemo and extra drugs can better treat certain HER2-positive, locally advanced or inflammatory breast cancers. It may help by improving cancer control in people who have not had prior anti-cancer treatment for their breast cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT04646759RecruitingPhase 3
Fulvestrant or capecitabine plus pyrotinib for metastatic breast cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests adding pyrotinib to standard hormone-based treatments (fulvestrant or capecitabine) to slow or control metastatic breast cancer. It’s for tumors that are hormone-receptor positive and HER2 positive, where standard options have been used before.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT04019678Recruiting
Breast cancer study after chemotherapy with small underarm node spread
This study looks at whether it’s safe and effective to avoid removing many underarm lymph nodes in some people who, after chemotherapy, still seem to have only tiny (“micro”) cancer deposits in the sentinel lymph node. It may help reduce treatment side effects while keeping cancer control.
Rozzano, MIAges 18–75 - NCT03784651Recruiting
How breast cancer treatment changes metabolism and bone
This study looks at how standard breast cancer treatments affect your body’s metabolism and bones in postmenopausal people with early-stage breast cancer. It may help doctors better predict and prevent bone and metabolic side effects from treatment.
Copenhagen, DanmarkAges 50–70 - NCT05240950RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T cell therapy for colorectal cancer in the liver
This Phase 1 study tests an anti-CEA CAR-T cell treatment for people whose colorectal cancer spread to the liver but has been surgically removed with no visible remaining tumor. It aims to see if the treatment can better prevent the cancer from coming back, especially when early warning tests suggest leftover cancer cells.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04938986Recruiting
Testing a tumor marker to predict colon cancer relapse risk
This study looks at whether a lab test on your tumor can better predict the chance that non-metastatic colon cancer will come back after surgery. Researchers will compare relapse risk using the Immunoscore® test to help guide follow-up and treatment decisions.
MarseilleAges 18–80 - NCT03753243RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab and hormone blocker before prostate surgery
This Phase 2 trial studies whether pembrolizumab plus a hormone “androgen axis” blocker taken before prostate surgery can improve outcomes for people with high-risk, non-metastatic prostate cancer. It’s designed for patients who are planning prostate removal with an extended lymph node dissection.
Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT04161664RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo for metastatic vulvar cancer with carboplatin and paclitaxel
This trial studies how well carboplatin plus paclitaxel chemotherapy works for vulvar squamous cell cancer that has spread. It may help shrink tumors and control cancer growth in people who are not able to be fully treated with local surgery.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT05501353Recruiting
Study tumor biomarkers in recurrent metastatic colon cancer
This study looks for blood/tumor signals (“biomarkers”) that may help predict outcomes in people whose colorectal cancer returns and spreads after surgery. It mainly helps researchers understand who may do better or worse, which can guide future care.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–99 - NCT05851014RecruitingPhase 3
GB491 plus letrozole for HR+ HER2- advanced breast cancer
This Phase 3 study tests whether GB491 used together with letrozole works better for hormone receptor–positive and HER2-negative advanced breast cancer. You may be eligible if you have not had certain prior cancer treatments and your health tests are within safe limits.
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT05856383Recruiting
HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer drug combination study
This trial tests whether inetetamab combined with pyrotinib and vinorelbine works better and is safe for adults with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer. You may be considered if standard options have not removed the cancer with surgery and your body can handle chemotherapy and HER2-targeting medicines.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT05795335Recruiting
Testing CDK4/6 medicines for advanced hormone-positive breast cancer
This trial studies how CDK4/6 medicines fit into treatment for people with advanced hormone receptor–positive breast cancer that cannot be cured with surgery or radiation. It may help doctors understand the best way to use these medicines for disease that has returned or spread.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05209243Recruiting
Treating limited-spread prostate cancer with radiation plus hormone therapy
This trial studies whether adding focused radiation (SBRT) to hormone therapy can control prostate cancer that has spread to only a few places. It aims to help people with early “oligometastatic” prostate cancer by improving disease control while limiting treatment side effects.
MadridAges Any age - NCT05251883Recruiting
Study of data from metastatic ovarian cancer using multiple tests
This study looks at metastatic ovarian cancer by analyzing many types of patient data (from “multi-omics,” which means different kinds of lab and biological information). It may help doctors better understand the disease and improve future care.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05663242RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing anesthetics for outcomes after lung tumor surgery
