ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT06333314RecruitingPhase 2
Dostarlimab for advanced dMMR/MSI cancers (not colorectal or endometrial)
This trial tests a drug called dostarlimab for people with certain advanced cancers that have a specific genetic feature (dMMR/MSI-H). The goal is to see if it helps shrink or control the cancer in people who haven't had other treatments yet.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT06450548Recruiting
PSMA and FDG PET scans before 177Lu-PSMA therapy
This trial uses two types of PET scans (PSMA and FDG) to see how well a radioactive therapy called 177Lu-PSMA might work for men with advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy and chemotherapy.
RouenAges 18 years+ - NCT06456515Recruiting
Regorafenib, sintilimab, and electroacupuncture for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (regorafenib and sintilimab) plus electroacupuncture for people with advanced colorectal cancer that hasn't responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if this triple therapy can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
ChangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT06496581RecruitingPhase 3
Adding a targeted radiation drug for prostate cancer that hasn't responded well to initial treatment
This trial tests if adding a radioactive drug called 177Lu-PSMA-617 to standard therapy helps men whose prostate cancer has spread and hasn't responded well to initial hormone therapy. It's for men whose PSA level is still detectable after 6-8 months of treatment.
AngersAges 18–80 - NCT06630845Recruiting
Comparing two whole-body scan methods for metastatic cancer
This trial tests whether a newer type of MRI scan (called whole-body DWI) can work as well as a standard PET/CT scan (called FDG PET) for finding and monitoring cancer that has spread. If you have metastatic cancer and already have a scheduled PET/CT or other scan, you may be able to get both scans done, helping researchers compare the two methods.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06778408RecruitingPhase 2
Hybrid arc palliative radiation therapy for metastasis
This trial tests a new radiation technique for people with cancer that has spread to bones or soft tissues in the chest, belly, or pelvis. The goal is to safely deliver effective palliative radiation to ease symptoms.
Burlington, VermontAges 18 years+ - NCT06992232RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation or surgery plus hormone therapy for prostate cancer that has spread
This trial tests whether giving intense hormone therapy along with either radiation or surgery can help men with prostate cancer that has spread to a limited number of spots (10 or fewer) but not to organs like the liver or lungs. The goal is to treat both the main tumor and the visible metastatic spots more aggressively.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT07001085Recruiting
Blood test to monitor liver cancer after surgery
This study uses a simple blood test to monitor tiny pieces of tumor DNA (ctDNA) in people with colorectal cancer that spread to the liver or with liver cancer (HCC), before and after liver surgery or transplant. It aims to help doctors detect cancer return earlier and guide treatment.
Warsaw, Masovian VoivodeshipAges 18–75 - NCT07144085RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new PET scan tracer for cancer diagnosis
This trial tests a new type of PET/CT scan that uses a special tracer (called ⁶⁸Ga-FXX489) to help find and diagnose cancers. It is for people who are strongly suspected to have cancer and want to see if this new imaging method can help their doctors learn more about their disease.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–80 - NCT07201519RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo infusion for liver cancer using a hybrid care model
This trial tests a special type of chemotherapy (hepatic artery infusion) for people with cancers that have spread to the liver, such as colorectal cancer or bile duct cancer (intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma). It studies whether delivering this treatment partly at a community center and partly at a university hospital is safe and feasible.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18–99 - NCT07269080RecruitingPhase 1
