Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–70 - NCT05727787Recruiting
Radiation trial for liver cancer that cannot be removed
This Phase I study tests a specific radiation approach (vGRID SBRT) for hepatocellular carcinoma (and some mixed types) that is advanced and cannot be cured with surgery or transplant. It aims to control tumors while staying within safety limits for the liver and nearby organs.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT05732051RecruitingPhase 2
Nicotinamide riboside to protect the heart during breast cancer chemo
This trial tests whether nicotinamide riboside can help prevent heart problems caused by a common breast-cancer chemotherapy (anthracyclines). If you’re eligible, you’ll be followed to see how your heart is doing during treatment.
Lørenskog, AkershusAges 18 years+ - NCT05733598RecruitingPhase 2
RP2 plus standard treatment for advanced liver or bile cancers
This Phase 2 trial studies whether RP2, added to standard second-line treatment, can improve outcomes for people with advanced liver cancer or bile duct/gallbladder cancer. It may help by training the immune system to better attack the cancer after the cancer has already grown despite prior treatment.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05734430Recruiting
Study of genetics in appendix cancer families
This study looks at genetic (inherited) and other biological factors in people with appendix cancer and, in some cases, their biological parents. The goal is to learn what may contribute to appendix cancer and help researchers better understand risk.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05743621RecruitingPhase 1
First TVB-2640 and enzalutamide for metastatic prostate cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a new medicine (TVB-2640) combined with enzalutamide in men with prostate cancer that has spread and is no longer responding to hormone treatment. It aims to find a safe dose and see how well the treatment can work against the cancer.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05744687RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Letrozole plus SPH4336 versus letrozole alone for breast cancer
This study tests whether adding SPH4336 to letrozole works better than letrozole plus a placebo for treating hormone-receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancer in people starting first-line treatment. It may help slow cancer growth more effectively if the added drug is beneficial.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT05747625RecruitingPhase 1
PET/CT scan using panitumumab to find head and neck cancer spread
This Phase 1 study tests a new way to use a scan (PET/CT) with a drug called panitumumab to help spot where head and neck squamous cell cancer has spread. It may help doctors better target treatment by finding metastases earlier or more clearly.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 19 years+ - NCT05748834RecruitingPhase 2
Tucatinib plus Doxil for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests tucatinib (a HER2-targeted pill) plus Doxil (a chemotherapy medicine) to slow or shrink HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer that has been treated before. It may help by targeting HER2 cancer cells more effectively than past treatments alone.
Columbia, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05753722RecruitingPhase 1
First trial for PRTH-101 alone or with pembrolizumab
This early study tests PRTH-101, given by itself or with pembrolizumab, in people with advanced cancers that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if it is safe and how it affects the cancer.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05760378RecruitingPhase 3
Famitinib plus immunotherapy for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests a combination of famitinib (a cancer drug that targets blood vessel growth) with immunotherapy drugs in people with newly diagnosed advanced triple-negative breast cancer that has spread or cannot be fully removed. It aims to improve how long patients live and how well the cancer responds.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05760391Recruiting
Check anti-PD-1 therapy plus radiation for advanced esophageal cancer
This trial studies whether adding an anti-PD-1 immunotherapy (with chemotherapy) together with radiation can help people with advanced esophageal squamous cell cancer. It’s for cases where surgery or standard definitive chemoradiation can’t be done, or the cancer has spread to distant sites.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT05766371RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus PSMA-targeted therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding pembrolizumab to a PSMA-targeted drug can better treat metastatic prostate cancer that has progressed despite hormone-blocking treatments. It may help some people by attacking PSMA-positive cancer spots seen on a special PET scan.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05768503RecruitingPhase 3
Test new drugs after colorectal cancer chemotherapy
This Phase 3 trial compares a new treatment combination (chidamide plus sintilimab plus bevacizumab) versus the standard second-line chemotherapy (FOLFIRI plus bevacizumab) for advanced colorectal cancer that is microsatellite stable/low. It aims to see which treatment works better and is safer for people whose cancer grew after first-line oxaliplatin-based therapy.
