Recruiting studies
- NCT03958240Recruiting
Study how cancers trigger the immune system
This study looks at what makes some cancers more “noticeable” to the immune system. It may help researchers design better future immunotherapy by collecting information (often including blood samples) from people with different cancers.
ToulouseAges 18 years+ - NCT05741164RecruitingPhase 2
Propranolol plus pembrolizumab for hard-to-treat breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding propranolol to pembrolizumab can “re-sensitize” tumors and slow cancer in triple-negative breast cancer that no longer responds to checkpoint immunotherapy. It may help some people whose cancer has grown despite prior pembrolizumab and chemotherapy.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06640166RecruitingPhase 2
Encorafenib + Cetuximab with FOLFIRI after progression
This trial tests adding a new chemotherapy regimen (FOLFIRI) to the combination of Encorafenib and Cetuximab for people with a specific type of advanced colorectal cancer that has started growing again after initial treatment with Encorafenib and Cetuximab. The goal is to see if the new combination can help control the cancer longer.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT07698535RecruitingPhase 2
Blood test to guide early stopping of prostate cancer therapy
This trial uses a blood test to measure tumor DNA and see if men with advanced prostate cancer can safely stop treatment with a drug called 177Lu-PSMA-617 earlier than usual, or switch to chemotherapy. It may help reduce side effects while still controlling the cancer.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT03723928Recruiting
Blood test–guided monitoring for metastatic breast cancer treatment
This study checks whether specific blood “tumor marker” levels can help monitor how hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer responds to first-line therapy. It uses regular blood tests (and sometimes scans) to see if this marker-based monitoring is useful and reliable.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT07593820RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T Cell Study for Advanced HER2-Positive Cancers
This early-stage trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy called CAR-T cells, which are designed to recognize and attack cancer cells that have a protein called HER2. The cells are made from your own immune cells, trained in the laboratory, and given back to you. The study evaluates how safe the treatment is and whether it can shrink tumors.
Barcelona, CataloniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05111561RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a two-drug combo for RAS-mutant or triple negative breast cancer
This study tests a combination of two new drugs, ZEN003694 and binimetinib, for people with advanced solid tumors that have certain gene changes (like RAS mutations) or triple negative breast cancer. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06856213RecruitingPhase 2
Cetuximab with or without weekly paclitaxel for head and neck cancer
This study tests whether adding the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel (Taxol) to the targeted therapy cetuximab (Erbitux) is more effective than cetuximab alone for head and neck cancer that has progressed after initial immunotherapy and chemotherapy. Researchers want to see if the combination can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Santiago de Compostela, A CoruñaAges 18 years+ - NCT06942104RecruitingPhase 1
New imaging agent for advanced solid tumors

It is designed for patients with specific cancers like high-grade brain tumors, advanced kidney cancer, or prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07610798RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing INV-8989 for Advanced Cancers With KRAS G12D Mutation
This early-stage trial tests a new drug called INV-8989 designed to target a specific genetic mutation (KRAS G12D) found in some advanced solid cancers. The study will evaluate whether the drug is safe and if it can help shrink tumors in patients who haven't responded to standard treatments.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07096362RecruitingPhase 2
Using a blood test to guide treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests whether a blood test that detects tumor DNA can help doctors decide early if the standard chemotherapy is working, and if switching treatment might be better. It is for people newly diagnosed with metastatic pancreatic cancer who are starting their first chemotherapy.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06789172RecruitingPhase 1
New drug OKN4395 with or without pembrolizumab for solid tumors
This trial tests a new oral drug called OKN4395, which targets a COX2-related immune pathway, alone or with the immunotherapy pembrolizumab, in people with advanced solid tumors. It may be an option if you have certain types of cancer that have stopped responding to other treatments.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07529808RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New Drug BHB810 for Advanced Stomach Cancer
This trial tests a new drug called BHB810 for gastric (stomach) and gastroesophageal junction cancer that has stopped responding to standard treatments or has no standard options available. The drug targets a protein called CDH17 found on cancer cells and may help slow or shrink the tumor.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06338683RecruitingPhase 3
Olanzapine for advanced upper digestive and lung cancer survival
This study tests whether a medicine called olanzapine can improve survival in people with advanced cancers of the upper digestive system or lungs. Olanzapine may help with appetite and weight, which are common problems in these cancers.
Xining, QinghaiAges 18–80 - NCT06600802Recruiting
Lu-PSMA treatment for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests a radioactive drug called Lu-PSMA-617 for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and is no longer responding to hormone therapy. The drug targets a protein on cancer cells to deliver radiation directly to the tumor.
