This trial collects health information and samples (a “cancer repository”) to help researchers study cancer and cancer risk. You may be able to join if you’ve had cancer before or if you’re at higher risk or have concerning findings.
Greenwood Village, ColoradoAges 19–110 - NCT04340024Recruiting
Testing blood markers linked to how well radiation works
This study looks for “biomarkers,” or measurable signs (often from blood or samples), that may show which cancers respond better to radiation therapy. It may help doctors choose radiation treatment more precisely, especially for people who had significant side effects before.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - NCT06662929Recruiting
Arabic quality of life measure for head and neck cancer patients
This study will test a new Arabic questionnaire to measure how radiotherapy affects the quality of life of head and neck cancer patients. If you are receiving, have received, or will receive radiation treatment for head or neck cancer, you may be able to help by filling out surveys.
RiyadhAges 18 years+ - NCT05638269Recruiting
Study of gut bacteria in people with serious long-term illness
This study looks at the types of gut bacteria in people living in certain parts of China who have serious long-term (chronic) illnesses. The goal is to better understand how gut bacteria differ and may help doctors in the future tailor care.
Chaoyang, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05983432RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BL-B01D1 for advanced lung and other solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental drug called BL-B01D1 for people with several types of advanced solid tumors, especially non-small cell lung cancer and breast cancer. It's designed for those whose cancer has continued to grow after standard treatments.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07038343RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called AVZO-1418, either alone or with other treatments, for people with advanced solid tumors that have spread or cannot be removed. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective against certain types of cancer.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18–75 - NCT03010150Recruiting
Blood tests and swallowing exercise check-ins for head and neck cancer
This study looks at whether giving swallowing exercises and checking in with questionnaires can help people with metastatic (spreading to neck lymph nodes) head and neck cancers do the exercises correctly. It also uses blood tests to better understand adherence and progress over time.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06029270RecruitingPhase 2
Adding relatlimab to standard immunotherapy for nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests whether adding a new drug called relatlimab to the usual immunotherapy (nivolumab) helps people with nasopharyngeal cancer that has returned or spread. You will get standard chemotherapy plus nivolumab first, then if it works, you may be randomly assigned to get nivolumab alone or with relatlimab.
Dublin, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06532279RecruitingPhase 2
Testing BMX-001 with chemoradiation for head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding BMX-001 (a drug that may protect healthy tissues) to standard chemoradiation can reduce side effects and improve outcomes for people with head and neck cancer. It's a randomized study, so you would have a 50/50 chance of getting BMX-001 or a placebo.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03556228RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tested medicine for tumors with TrkA changes, alone or with pembrolizumab
This early-phase study tests VMD-928, a targeted cancer medicine, for cancers that have TrkA-related tumor changes. It may be given by itself or with pembrolizumab to see if it can shrink tumors when standard treatments have not worked.
