GenevaAges 18–85 - NCT03465982Recruiting
Timing surgery after chemotherapy and radiation for rectal cancer
This trial studies the best time to do surgery after you finish chemotherapy and radiation for rectal cancer. It may help improve how well minimally invasive surgery works and how safely it can be done.
Alessandria, ALAges 18 years+ - NCT03492424Recruiting
Focal prostate cancer treatment study
This study looks at outcomes after “focal therapy,” a type of treatment that targets only part of the prostate, for people with newly diagnosed or returning prostate cancer. It may help researchers understand how well this targeted approach works and for whom.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03494946Recruiting
Liver transplant vs chemotherapy for colon cancer liver spread
This trial compares liver transplantation to standard chemotherapy for people with colon or rectal cancer that has spread to the liver but cannot be removed surgically. It looks at whether transplant can help patients live longer or better than chemotherapy in the right patients.
OsloAges 18 years+ - NCT03671044RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a nano-form of docetaxel for triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 3 study tests whether a special form of docetaxel (a chemotherapy drug) works better and is safe for people with triple-negative breast cancer that has spread or grown locally. You may be eligible if your cancer is triple-negative and you have measurable disease that can be tracked on scans, along with adequate organ and heart function.
Columbus, GeorgiaAges 18–65 - NCT03719547Recruiting
Robot surgery for certain early cervical cancer cases
This trial studies whether robot-assisted surgery can be used safely and effectively for certain early-stage cervical cancers. It may help by using a precise surgical approach to remove the cancer while matching standard care for eligible patients.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT03750227RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation before or after brain tumor surgery
This study compares giving focused, high-precision radiation before or after surgery for brain metastases. It aims to see which timing works best to control tumors and improve outcomes.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03779009Recruiting
Study mapping sentinel lymph nodes to guide colon cancer surgery
This trial looks at a minimally invasive surgery approach for people with colon adenocarcinoma that has not spread to lymph nodes or other organs. The team will use special mapping tests on the sentinel lymph node to better understand the cancer spread and help guide treatment decisions.
GhentAges 18 years+ - NCT03788213Recruiting
Shorter vs longer radiation after breast cancer surgery
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+ - NCT03802851Recruiting
Laser procedure before radiation for prostate cancer symptoms
This trial looks at whether doing a prostate “laser procedure” (called HoLEP) before starting radiation and hormone therapy can improve severe urinary symptoms and reduce urine retention problems. It is for people with prostate cancer who are planning radiation plus hormone treatment and who have significant bladder/urinary trouble.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT03829553RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation to breast lymph nodes versus standard breast cancer care
This Phase 3 trial tests whether a shorter, more focused radiation treatment to the regional lymph nodes works as well as the current standard approach for certain breast cancers. It may help patients by potentially improving treatment efficiency while keeping cancer control effective.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - 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 - NCT03842085RecruitingPhase 1
MBS301 drug study for HER2-positive advanced cancers
This Phase 1 study tests MBS301, a new treatment, for people with HER2-positive advanced solid tumors. It mainly looks at safety and how the drug works, especially for cancers that have returned or spread.
ZhengzhouAges 18 years+ - NCT03856372Recruiting
Shorter radiation schedule after mastectomy for high-risk breast cancer
This trial compares a shorter radiation plan to a standard longer plan after mastectomy for people considered high risk. It may help reduce treatment time while still trying to prevent breast-cancer recurrence.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT03888950Recruiting
Interim PET-CT scan to assess anti-PD-1 treatment in melanoma
This study checks an “interim” whole-body scan (PET-CT) partway through treatment to see how well anti-PD-1 immunotherapy (nivolumab or pembrolizumab) is working for advanced melanoma. It may help doctors better understand early treatment response and guide next steps.
Nice, CHU de NICEAges 18 years+ - NCT03937453Recruiting
Pancreatic cancer screening for people with new or worsening diabetes
This study checks whether regular imaging can find pancreatic cancer earlier in people who recently developed diabetes or whose diabetes is getting worse. It may help detect pancreatic problems sooner when treatment options are likely better.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 50 years+ - NCT03945162RecruitingPhase 2
Bladder cancer trial using light therapy in the bladder
This Phase 2 study tests a treatment called photodynamic therapy (PDT) placed directly into the bladder. It may help people whose non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer did not respond to BCG treatment or could not tolerate it.
