Second-line therapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy with either bevacizumab or cetuximab as a second-line treatment for advanced colorectal cancer. It aims to find which option works better for patients whose first treatment failed.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT05530759Recruiting
Testing blood and tumor samples for diagnostic cancer markers
This study looks at blood and tumor tissue to find signs (markers) that can help diagnose or better understand metastatic cancer. You may be able to join if you’re getting surgery or a biopsy to remove a tumor and there’s a safe way to collect samples.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06039371RecruitingPhase 2
High dose testosterone during chemo for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests if adding high doses of testosterone to standard chemotherapy (etoposide and carboplatin) can make the chemo work better in men whose prostate cancer has stopped responding to other treatments. It aims to see if this approach can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT02596490Recruiting
Couple meditation program for metastatic lung cancer and partners
This study tests whether a couple-based meditation program can help people with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer and their romantic partners cope better during treatment. It looks at the experience of both the patient and their partner, not just the patient alone.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07699991Recruiting
Support program for breast cancer survivors
This study tests a navigation program to help breast cancer survivors get the support services they need after treatment. It is designed for people treated at the Stefanie Spielman Breast Center who may face extra barriers, such as being older, Black, Hispanic, or living in a rural area.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05884320RecruitingPhase 2
Sacituzumab govitecan for advanced salivary gland cancers
This Phase 2 trial tests sacituzumab govitecan, an anti-cancer medicine, in people with recurrent or metastatic (coming back or spread) secretory gland cancers or related salivary gland cancers. It aims to see how well the treatment can shrink tumors and control disease when surgery or radiation is not a cure.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05361720RecruitingPhase 2
