Study of cancer biology in ALK-positive advanced lung cancer
This study looks at biological changes in advanced lung cancer that has an ALK rearrangement, using regular blood samples (and sometimes tumor tissue if available). It may help researchers better understand how this cancer behaves and how it responds to first-line ALK-targeted treatment.
Saint-Denis, La RéunionAges 18 years+ - NCT05059444Recruiting
Blood test to catch cancer early after treatment
This study looks for signs of cancer left in the body after treatment using a simple blood test (called a liquid biopsy). It aims to see if the test can catch cancer that might come back earlier than regular scans.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05024214RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test of envafolimab plus lenvatinib for advanced solid tumors
This trial studies whether combining envafolimab (an anti-immune cancer medicine) with lenvatinib (a targeted pill) can shrink or control advanced cancers that have stopped responding to standard care. It may help people whose tumors are not curable with usual treatments, by testing a new combo and finding safe doses.
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT05012111Recruiting
Studying bone marrow failure over time
This study looks at the natural course of bone marrow failure conditions, both inherited and acquired. It aims to understand how these diseases progress over time, which may help guide future treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–99 - NCT05039632RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
NBTXR3 plus radiation with anti-PD-1 for advanced lung or liver cancers
This study tests whether adding NBTXR3 (given into a tumor) and targeted radiation to anti–PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy can improve cancer control in advanced cancers that have spread to the lung and/or liver. Participants may be assigned to different radiation approaches to try to trigger tumor shrinkage in both treated and nearby or distant tumor areas.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05002478Recruiting
Prone positioning for very sick babies with lung distress
This trial tests whether turning very sick, ventilated infants onto their stomach (prone positioning) can improve breathing when they have severe lung distress from likely pneumonia or bronchiolitis. It may help your baby get better oxygen levels and recover faster, while doctors closely monitor safety.
ViennaAges Up to 1 year - NCT05051254Recruiting
Breathing muscle testing in children with breathing muscle weakness
This study looks at how hard it is for children to breathe and how their breathing muscles work, using specific breathing-related tests. It may help doctors better understand breathing problems and choose care more effectively.
ParisAges birth–17 years - NCT04949464Recruiting
Smoking quit coaching plus lung scans for people with HIV
This study tests a behavior-change program to help people with HIV quit smoking, along with routine low-dose lung CT scans to find warning signs early. It’s a feasibility study, meaning the main goal is to see if the approach is practical and acceptable, and if people can follow through.
