Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT07557225Recruiting
New PET Scan for Detecting Multiple Cancer Types
This study tests a new type of PET scan (a specialized imaging test) that may better detect certain cancers by looking for a specific marker found on many tumor types. The scan uses a new tracer called 18F-T2 to help doctors see cancer more clearly.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06572423Recruiting
Personalized focused radiation for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a personalized, very precise radiation treatment (called PULS-Pal) for head and neck cancer that cannot be cured with standard therapies. It aims to shrink tumors and help with symptoms while limiting side effects.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07209189RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo and immunotherapy before surgery for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug called Toripalimab before surgery for certain head and neck cancers. The goal is to see if this approach can reduce the extent of treatment needed while still being effective.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06691776Recruiting
Adaptive radiotherapy for five cancer types
This trial tests whether a newer type of daily CT scan (CBCT-guided adaptive radiotherapy) can safely and accurately deliver radiation to cancers of the prostate, cervix, bladder, lung, or head and neck. The goal is to better target the tumor and reduce side effects.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT06710756RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
