TübingenAges Any age - NCT06754904Recruiting
Skipping lymph node removal for melanoma with good treatment response
This trial tests whether patients with stage 3 melanoma that shrinks significantly after initial immunotherapy can safely avoid having all their lymph nodes surgically removed. Instead, only the main affected node is removed for testing.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 16 years+ - NCT07661966Recruiting
Bright light therapy for melanoma or lung cancer patients starting immunotherapy
This study tests if daily bright light therapy can help people with advanced melanoma or lung cancer feel better during their first immunotherapy treatment. The light box is used at home for a short time each morning.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06753136Recruiting
Electrochemotherapy for internal organ tumors
This trial tests a treatment called electrochemotherapy for tumors in internal organs (like the liver or pancreas) when standard treatments are no longer possible. It uses a drug called bleomycin plus electric pulses to target cancer cells.
PadovaAges 18–99 - NCT07760012Recruiting
Pet scan with new tracer for solid tumors
This study uses a new imaging tracer, called 68Ga-SorB, during a PET/CT scan to look at tumors. It may help doctors see cancer more clearly. The trial is for adults with certain types of solid tumors (such as melanoma, liver, lung, breast, pancreatic, ovarian, or bile duct cancer) who need a PET/CT scan as part of their care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07848243RecruitingPhase 2
A new imaging test to find returning cancer
This trial tests a new imaging agent that helps find cancer cells that have come back. It is given as an injection and then a scan is done to see if it helps doctors locate the cancer.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07808164Recruiting
Protein markers in solid tumors: a Vietnamese tissue study
This study looks at tissue samples from Vietnamese patients with solid tumors to understand the presence of certain proteins (ENPP1, cGAS, and FAP). The goal is to learn more about these tumors, which might help develop better treatments in the future.
Hanoi, HanoiAges 18 years+ - NCT06666790Recruiting
DermaSensor device study for suspicious skin spots
This study is testing a handheld device that scans skin lesions to help detect melanoma. If you have a spot that your doctor thinks could be melanoma, this study will see how well the device works compared to standard checks.
New Smyrna Beach, FloridaAges 40 years+ - NCT07649681Recruiting
AI nutrition help for taste changes from cancer treatment
This study tests whether an AI-powered nutrition program can help people with taste changes caused by cancer therapy. You'll get personalized recipe suggestions and nutrition advice through an online portal to help you eat better during treatment.
Augsburg, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT07555210Recruiting
Bone Density Changes During Cancer Immunotherapy
This study tracks how a type of cancer treatment called anti-PD-1 immunotherapy affects bone strength over time. Researchers want to understand whether this treatment causes bone density loss and help develop ways to protect bones during cancer care.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07469709Recruiting
