Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03184038Recruiting
Testing brain function in people with brain metastases after radiosurgery
This study looks at how well your thinking and memory work after treatment with radiosurgery for brain metastases. It may help researchers understand which patients benefit best and how to monitor side effects on brain function.
Sewell, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT03270059RecruitingPhase 2
MRI with special contrast to study brain and other CNS problems
This trial tests whether two special MRI contrast medicines—gadolinium and ferumoxytol—can better diagnose problems in the brain or central nervous system. It may help doctors identify what’s causing symptoms or abnormal brain findings.
Portland, OregonAges 10 years+ - NCT02754544Recruiting
Brain mapping during tumor surgery while you are awake
This study uses special recording sensors during brain tumor surgery to map the brain areas that control movement and speech. It may help the surgical team protect these key functions while removing the tumor.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02474160Recruiting
Banking cancer tissue and blood for future research
This study collects and stores leftover or newly taken samples of tissue and blood from people with cancer. The goal is to build a research library that can help investigators study cancer and develop better tests or treatments.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 2 months+ - NCT01365169Recruiting
How activity level and daily function relate to cancer survival
This study looks at how physical activity (movement during the day) and a clinician-rated “day-to-day function” score relate to overall survival in people with certain cancers. It may help doctors understand who benefits most from activity-focused care and better monitoring.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT01050504Recruiting
Donate blood and tissue to study recurrent or metastatic cancers
This study collects and studies blood and, when possible, small tissue samples from people with prostate or bladder/urothelial cancer that has come back or spread. The goal is to better understand these cancers and support future research that may lead to better care.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT05853094Recruiting
Testing different ways to create a stoma after rectal cancer surgery
This trial looks at how different stoma (opening in the belly) approaches affect recovery after curative rectal cancer surgery. It may help doctors choose the safest, most comfortable option for bowel function and healing after surgery.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT07440290RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Dabrafenib and trametinib for BRAF V600 cancers
This trial tests two targeted drugs (dabrafenib and trametinib) for patients whose cancer has a specific change in the BRAF gene called V600. These drugs work together to block signals that help the cancer grow. The trial is for children, teenagers, and adults with many types of cancer, except for a few common ones that already have approved treatments.
