Radiation study for tumors that spread to soft tissue areas
This study looks at how a planned form of palliative radiation therapy treats certain solid cancers that have spread outside the brain to larger soft-tissue areas. It may help shrink tumors and relieve symptoms, but it also asks you to meet specific safety and treatment-timing rules.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05839379Recruiting
Targeted therapy study for children and young adults with brain tumors
This trial studies a targeted medicine approach for high-grade glioma (a fast-growing brain tumor) and some diffuse midline tumors, including DIPG. It may help by matching treatment to tumor biology using tumor testing done before or around starting standard therapy.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 1–39 - NCT05842785RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for hard-to-treat advanced solid cancers or lymphomas
This early-phase study tests TSN222 in people with advanced, hard-to-treat solid tumors or lymphomas. It aims to see whether the drug can shrink tumors or improve outcomes, including in specific cancer types like head and neck cancer and melanoma.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05843253RecruitingPhase 2
Ribociclib plus everolimus or temozolomide for certain brain tumors
This Phase 2 study tests ribociclib with either everolimus or temozolomide, depending on the specific brain tumor type. It may help slow tumor growth in children and young adults whose tumor has specific genetic changes and who have had recent standard radiation therapy.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 1–39 - NCT05846789RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy with or without tocilizumab for breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding tocilizumab (a drug that targets inflammation signals) to standard chemotherapy helps people with triple-negative or ER-low metastatic or locally recurring breast cancer. It’s for adults who have had up to two prior treatments for metastatic disease and who can receive standard chemo.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05850182Recruiting
Lifestyle program for metastatic prostate cancer on hormone therapy
This trial studies whether a structured lifestyle intervention (such as exercise and related behavior changes) can benefit people with metastatic prostate cancer who are currently on hormone treatment. It may help by improving health and functioning while you continue standard cancer therapy.
BellinzonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05856565Recruiting
AI study using skin scar images to predict anti-PD-1 response
This study tests an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that looks at images of skin “peri-scar” areas to predict how well anti-PD-1 immunotherapy will work. It may help doctors better choose treatment for people with hard-to-operate (inoperable) melanoma or certain skin cancers.
