Study drug for TP53 Y220C-mutated advanced cancers
This early-phase study tests PC14586 (rezatapopt) in people with advanced or metastatic solid cancers that carry a specific TP53 mutation called Y220C. It mainly looks at safety and how well the treatment may work, sometimes combined with pembrolizumab.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT04589624RecruitingPhase 1
MRI scan to monitor response in head and neck cancers
This Phase 1 study tests an investigational MRI scan (hpMRI) to help doctors see how thyroid cancer and other head-and-neck cancers respond to treatment like radiation or other medicines. If you’re eligible, the scan may help track treatment effects more closely, though it’s still being studied for this purpose.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04603872RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CAR-T plus dasatinib for hard-to-treat B-cell cancers
This early study tests a cancer-fighting treatment that uses CAR-T cells together with dasatinib for people whose B-cell cancers have come back or did not respond. It aims to improve control of the cancer in cases that are often resistant to standard treatment.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–70 - NCT04634552RecruitingPhase 2
Talquetamab study for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma
This trial studies talquetamab, a medicine given to treat multiple myeloma that has come back or did not respond to prior treatment. It may help shrink tumors and improve disease control, depending on how your myeloma measures and your health status.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04644016RecruitingPhase 2
Cord blood transplant for children and young adults with blood cancers
This Phase 2 trial studies using a cord blood transplant after finding it is risky enough that standard treatment may not be sufficient. It may help certain children and young adults with specific leukemia, lymphoma, and some non-cancer blood/immune or inherited disorders who do not have a well-matched donor available in time.
New York, New YorkAges Up to 21 years - NCT04645160RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tivozanib for bile duct and gallbladder cancers after chemotherapy
This Phase 1/2 trial tests tivozanib (a targeted anti-cancer drug) in people with bile duct or gallbladder cancer that cannot be removed by surgery and has already been treated with first-line chemotherapy. The study looks at how well the drug works and how safe it is in this setting.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04654208Recruiting
Study people who took palbociclib prescriptions
This study uses prescription records to learn about real-world use of palbociclib (a cancer medicine). You may be included if you’re an adult and have filled at least one palbociclib prescription.
SollentunaAges 18 years+ - NCT04662294RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CD70-targeted CAR T therapy for CD70-positive blood cancers
This trial tests a customized immune-cell treatment (CAR T) that targets CD70 on cancer cells in certain blood cancers. It may help people whose disease has returned or did not respond to standard treatments.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges Any age - NCT04669873Recruiting
Partial breast radiation vs whole breast radiation after lumpectomy
This trial studies whether treating only part of the breast with radiation works as well as treating the whole breast in people with early breast cancer after lumpectomy. It may help reduce radiation exposure to healthy tissue, while still controlling the cancer.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 50–90 - NCT04678427Recruiting
Exercise program for kids and young adults in stem cell transplant
