Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05026983RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted drugs for melanoma spread to the brain
This Phase 2 trial tests two targeted medicines (binimetinib and encorafenib) for melanoma that has spread to the brain. It focuses on people whose tumor has a specific BRAF V600 mutation and who have brain metastases that are progressing or need treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05256641RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Acalabrutinib maintenance after transplant or CAR T for large B-cell lymphoma
This trial studies acalabrutinib given after certain lymphoma treatments (like stem cell transplant or CAR T therapy) to help keep the lymphoma from coming back. It’s for people whose disease has shrunk (partial response) or fully gone away (complete response) after those treatments.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT05379803RecruitingPhase 2
High-dose furmonertinib for lung cancer with brain metastases
This trial tests a high-dose targeted pill, furmonertinib, in people with EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain. It aims to better control both the lung cancer and the brain metastases by targeting a specific gene change.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT05474378RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cell therapy for recurrent glioblastoma
This early-phase study tests a type of immune-cell treatment (CAR T cells) aimed at a target called B7-H3 in people with glioblastoma or related grade 4 brain tumors that have come back. It’s meant to see if the treatment can shrink the tumor or control the disease and to learn how safe it is.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05550194RecruitingPhase 4
Study of an antiviral to treat achalasia-related nerve inflammation
This trial looks at whether the antiviral medicine valacyclovir, plus Shingrix vaccine, can change disease affecting the gut’s nerve system in people with achalasia. If you’re eligible, you would complete specific swallow and pressure tests and then take the medicines for about two months.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18–75 - NCT05641116Recruiting
Exercise plus education program for long-lasting Lyme-related symptoms
