Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT05478694Recruiting
Focal ablation outcomes for prostate cancer
This study looks at how well a targeted procedure (“focal ablation,” which destroys only the cancer area) works for certain men with prostate cancer that is limited to the prostate. It may help doctors understand which people benefit most and what outcomes to expect.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–90 - NCT05491226RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus radiation and myeloid-targeting for high-risk breast cancer
This trial studies whether adding pembrolizumab (an immune “unlocking” drug) to radiation and another treatment that targets certain immune cells can improve outcomes for women with high-risk, early-stage triple negative breast cancer. You may be considered if your cancer has signs that it may respond less to immunotherapy on its own.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05505643Recruiting
Cryoablation versus lumpectomy for early breast cancer
This trial compares two ways to remove early-stage breast tumors: freezing (cryoablation) or surgery (lumpectomy). It may help find which option works as well or better for cancer control while keeping the breast looking more natural for some people.
St Louis, MissouriAges 50 years+ - NCT05511623RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab with chemoradiotherapy for stage IIIC2 cervical cancer
This trial tests whether adding tislelizumab to standard chemotherapy and radiation works better as first treatment for stage IIIC2 cervical cancer. It aims to improve how well the cancer responds and controls the disease.
Nanning, GuangxiAges 18–70 - NCT05520255RecruitingPhase 3
PSMA PET/CT scan to guide care after prostate cancer treatment
This Phase 3 study checks whether a PSMA PET/CT scan (using a special tracer) can help doctors make better decisions for people with prostate cancer after treatment, based on PSA blood test changes. It may help identify whether cancer has spread or how to plan next steps.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT05532059RecruitingPhase 2
Test lenvatinib, tislelizumab, and chemotherapy for bile duct cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a combination of lenvatinib, an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab), and chemotherapy (gemcitabine plus cisplatin) for advanced bile duct cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. It aims to see whether this treatment can shrink tumors and improve outcomes, especially for people who have not yet had immunotherapy.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–85 - NCT05542706Recruiting
Extra support for caregivers after head and neck cancer surgery
This trial tests whether adding “paramedical” support (extra practical health help) for caregivers improves care after a patient has curative surgery for certain head and neck cancers. It’s designed for patient–caregiver pairs and may help families during the stressful period around surgery and follow-up treatment.
RouenAges 18–85 - NCT05549297RecruitingPhase 3
Tebentafusp plus choice of treatment for advanced melanoma
This Phase 3 study compares tebentafusp treatment against the doctor’s choice of standard options in people with previously treated advanced melanoma. It aims to see which approach works better for controlling the cancer and improving outcomes.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05597852Recruiting
Rectal gel spacer to help repeat prostate radiation
This trial studies whether placing a soft gel spacer near the rectum can make “salvage” prostate radiation safer and more tolerable when prostate cancer comes back locally. It may help reduce side effects by creating extra space between the rectum and the radiation area.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05606523Recruiting
Test gut bacteria treatment for weight loss in pancreatic cancer
This study looks at how changing the gut microbiome (gut bacteria) may help people with pancreatic cancer regain strength and slow or reverse cancer-related weight loss (cachexia). It also studies gut bacteria differences in people with pancreatic cancer who are losing weight versus those whose weight is stable, and in healthy volunteers.
GenevaAges 18 years+ - NCT05613023RecruitingPhase 3
Short-course prostate and pelvic SBRT using 5 treatment sessions
This study compares two schedules of highly focused radiation (SBRT): 5 sessions to the prostate only, versus 5 sessions to the prostate and nearby pelvic lymph nodes. It aims to see which approach controls high-risk localized prostate cancer better while you also take hormone therapy.
CorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05644457Recruiting
Testing early blood or tissue signals to track head and neck treatment
This study looks for early “biomarkers” (signals in blood or tissue) to see how well head and neck cancer treatments are working over time. It may help doctors adjust treatment sooner based on those early signals.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05673018Recruiting
Galleri blood test study in Medicare patients
This study looks at how a blood test called Galleri (and also how it compares when people have not yet had it) works for older adults with Medicare. It may help find whether the test can improve cancer detection or follow-up for people who are not already in urgent cancer workups.
Fort Smith, ArkansasAges 50 years+ - NCT05674825RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized treatment using tumor test results for aggressive cancers
This early-phase study tests whether a personalized cancer treatment plan based on your tumor’s test results can help people with aggressive cancers that are hard to treat. It may be an option if standard treatments didn’t work, aren’t possible for you, or you have few treatment choices.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT05677022Recruiting
Posture and movement check during adapted exercise after breast cancer
This study looks at how a posture and movement assessment can help guide a tailored exercise program for people treated for non-metastatic breast cancer. It may help ensure the exercise is safer and more suited to your recovery needs.
MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT05683418RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new drug for PIK3CA-mutated HR+ HER2- breast cancer
This early-stage study tests the safety and tolerability of TOS-358 in women with HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has a specific gene change (PIK3CA). It may help learn whether this targeted treatment is safe enough to move forward.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05687604Recruiting
Telehealth program to reduce cancer risk behaviors
This trial offers a scalable telehealth (phone/video) program to help people improve cancer risk habits like low physical activity, higher body weight, and smoking. It may help by giving structured coaching and support in the privacy of your home.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05690581RecruitingPhase 1
CM369 for advanced cancers with special immune marker in tumors
This Phase 1 study tests how safe and tolerable CM369 is in people with advanced solid tumors or blood cancers. It also looks at how the drug behaves in the body and whether it can help shrink or control cancer, especially when a tumor marker called CCR8 is present.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05704530Recruiting
Liquid blood tests for early esophageal cancer
This trial studies how well “liquid biopsy” blood tests can work in people with newly diagnosed, operable esophageal cancer. It may help doctors monitor the cancer and guide treatment planning alongside standard care.
AntwerpAges 18 years+ - NCT05715684Recruiting
Pre-surgery preparation program for people having bladder removal
This study tests a patient-centered coaching and preparation program before bladder surgery (cystectomy) to help you get ready for surgery and recovery. It may be especially helpful for people having urinary diversion using an ileal conduit or ileal neobladder.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT05726370RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus chemo before surgery for recurrent head and neck cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether giving pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) plus chemotherapy before curative surgery can improve outcomes for people with resectable, recurrent head and neck squamous cell cancer. It also studies how these treatments affect the tumor and immune response using required tissue and blood samples.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05727176RecruitingPhase 2
Futibatinib for advanced bile duct cancer with FGFR2 changes
