Geneva, Canton of GenevaAges 45–60 - NCT06841354RecruitingPhase 3
Sac-TMT alone or with pembrolizumab for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a new drug, Sac-TMT, given alone or with an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab) for people with advanced triple-negative breast cancer who have not yet received any treatment for advanced disease. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06840834RecruitingPhase 2
New drug for mesothelioma that has returned after prior treatment
This trial tests a drug called ivonescimab for people with pleural mesothelioma (a cancer of the lung lining) that has grown back after earlier immunotherapy and chemotherapy. The drug may help by blocking a protein that tumors use to hide from the immune system, possibly slowing or shrinking the cancer.
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT06843967RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Mirdametinib and palbociclib for liposarcoma
This trial tests two targeted drugs – mirdametinib and palbociclib – taken as pills for people with a specific aggressive type of liposarcoma (dedifferentiated liposarcoma) that has spread or can't be removed. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink or slow the tumor.
