AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT05817903RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab with or without axitinib after prior nivolumab
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding axitinib to nivolumab (or giving nivolumab alone) can better control advanced clear-cell kidney cancer after standard initial treatment with nivolumab plus ipilimumab. It may help by extending response or slowing tumor growth while improving how long treatment works.
BresciaAges 18 years+ - NCT05640609RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stomach cancer study using chemo plus immunotherapy plus targeted drug
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a combination treatment for advanced or metastatic stomach and food-pipe (gastroesophageal junction) cancer: a chemotherapy regimen (CapeOX) plus the immunotherapy drug sintilimab and the targeted drug bevacizumab. It aims to see how well this combination controls the cancer and how safely it can be given.
ChengduAges 18–70 - NCT05853094Recruiting
Testing different ways to create a stoma after rectal cancer surgery
This trial looks at how different stoma (opening in the belly) approaches affect recovery after curative rectal cancer surgery. It may help doctors choose the safest, most comfortable option for bowel function and healing after surgery.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT05917431RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus immunotherapy and targeted pills for liver cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether a combination of SBRT (focused radiation) plus tislelizumab and regorafenib can control unresectable or limited-spread liver cancer. It may help by attacking tumors in the liver and immune system to improve shrinkage and control of disease.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05926726Recruiting
GPC3-targeted CAR-T for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a custom immune-cell treatment (CAR-T) that targets a marker called GPC3 in people with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (a type of liver cancer). It’s for cases where standard treatments have not worked well, and the goal is to shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT05941338RecruitingPhase 2
Tirelizumab plus chemotherapy before head and neck surgery
This Phase 2 trial tests tirelizumab combined with two chemotherapy medicines before surgery for certain head and neck squamous cell cancers. It aims to shrink the tumor and improve outcomes after the operation.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT05837052RecruitingPhase 2
Serplulimab plus chemo after initial treatment for lung cancer
This Phase 2 study looks at how safe and effective serplulimab (an immune medicine) combined with chemotherapy is when used as a “conversion” plan—first shrinking lung cancer, then trying to remove the main tumor with surgery. It may help some people who are not initially good candidates for surgery or focused radiation to become eligible after treatment.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT05954897RecruitingPhase 2
Lenvatinib plus tislelizumab with HAIC for advanced liver cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether combining three treatments—lenvatinib, tislelizumab, and a liver-directed chemotherapy approach (HAIC)—can shrink advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. It may help people whose cancer is stage C and hasn’t been treated before.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05961761RecruitingPhase 2
Testing propranolol plus pembrolizumab for advanced sarcoma
This Phase 2 trial tests whether combining propranolol (a blood-pressure/heart medicine) with pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) can help people with advanced angiosarcoma or undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma that has progressed after first-line chemotherapy. It aims to slow tumor growth and improve outcomes while also studying tumor markers from your biopsy tissue.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT05981014RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immune cells from lymph nodes for HER2-negative breast cancer
