Baltimore, MarylandAges 21–65 - NCT03521830RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab and other immunotherapy for advanced basal cell skin cancer
This study tests how well the immunotherapy medicine nivolumab works—either by itself or combined with other immune-boosting drugs—for people with advanced basal cell carcinoma that can’t be removed by surgery or has spread. It’s also looking at what to do if the cancer grows again after an earlier immunotherapy.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03550391RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery-like brain radiation vs avoiding the memory center
This trial compares two ways of giving radiation to the brain for people with 5 or more brain metastases: focused stereotactic radiosurgery, or a whole-brain approach that tries to spare the memory area (with memantine). It aims to see which method better protects thinking and memory while still treating the tumors.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03561740RecruitingPhase 3
Capecitabine plus usual treatment for high-risk HER2 breast cancer
This trial looks at whether adding a chemotherapy medicine called capecitabine (taken in smaller, regular doses) to the standard after-surgery (adjuvant) treatment can lower the chance of cancer coming back in people with early-stage, high-risk HER2-positive breast cancer. It targets patients who still had cancer left after earlier treatment or who had higher-risk tumor features.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT03568630Recruiting
Blood tests to study early pancreatic cancer risk
This study looks at blood “markers” to find early signs or higher risk for pancreatic cancer. You may join if you have certain risk factors (like new diabetes, pancreatic cysts/pancreatitis, or a strong family history) and can come to Omaha for blood draws twice a year.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 19 years+ - NCT03569735Recruiting
Elderly health survey in Nanshan, Shenzhen
This study follows people age 65 and older in Nanshan to learn about health over time using surveys and health samples. It may help researchers understand what supports healthy aging in the community.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 65 years+ - NCT03587844RecruitingPhase 2
Test dosing of brentuximab for skin lymphoma
This Phase 2 study tests how brentuximab vedotin should be dosed for people with mycosis fungoides or Sezary syndrome (skin T-cell lymphoma), and also for lymphomatoid papulosis. It may help improve how well the treatment works while tracking side effects.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03647358RecruitingPhase 1
Iodine scan planning for metastatic thyroid cancer treatment
This early-stage study tests how well a special iodine scan (using iodine-124) can help plan treatment with radioactive iodine (iodine-131) for thyroid cancer that has spread. It may help doctors decide the right way to measure and target radioiodine-avid (radioiodine-absorbing) metastases.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03716089Recruiting
Laparoscopic surgery for stomach GIST by tumor site
This trial studies whether doing laparoscopic surgery for stomach GISTs (gastrointestinal stromal tumors) works and is safe when the tumor is in a “favorable” versus “unfavorable” location. You might be eligible if your tumor is confirmed as GIST and doctors expect to remove it completely using keyhole surgery.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT03721068RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T-cell treatment for hard-to-treat childhood tumors
This Phase 1 study tests an experimental CAR T-cell treatment that targets GD2, with added immune-boosting and safety features, for children with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma or osteosarcoma. It’s designed to see if the treatment is safe and can shrink these cancers when standard therapy hasn’t worked.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 1.5 years+ - NCT03736863RecruitingPhase 2
Testing combinations of medicines for advanced throat cancer
This trial tests a combination of medicines to treat advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (throat/esophagus cancer) that cannot be removed by surgery and has spread or come back. It is for people whose first treatment (chemotherapy or immunotherapy) did not work well or was not tolerated.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–75 - NCT03750513RecruitingPhase 1
Tested improved radiation targeting for children with ependymoma
This early-phase study tests a more precisely targeted type of radiation for children with ependymoma, aiming to treat the brain tumor more accurately. It may help reduce how much healthy tissue gets radiation, and researchers are checking safety and best dosing.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Up to 22 years - NCT03758976Recruiting
Study of scans in advanced breast cancer recurrence
This study looks at people with advanced breast cancer to better understand recurrence by using information from recent scans. It may help researchers improve how advanced disease is assessed and followed over time.
LundAges 18 years+ - NCT03760575RecruitingPhase 1
Pembrolizumab plus chemo with surgery for pleural mesothelioma
This trial studies how well pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) works when added to chemotherapy before image-guided surgery for malignant pleural mesothelioma. It aims to shrink or control the cancer and improve surgical results by combining treatments.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03767075RecruitingPhase 2
Basket trial matching cancer patients to targeted treatments
This trial tests whether matching your tumor’s DNA/RNA results to a specific cancer medicine can work better than standard options when cancer has spread or can’t be removed by surgery. You may be assigned to a “basket” (sub-study) based on the exact changes found in your tumor.
VillejuifAges 18 years+ - NCT03785574Recruiting
Treating hydatidiform mole when lung nodules might be metastasis
This study looks at different treatment approaches for hydatidiform mole when a CT scan shows lung nodules and the team cannot rule out spread. It may help guide the safest next steps and follow-up plan.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges Up to 60 years - NCT03789721Recruiting
