Recruiting studies
- NCT05478876Recruiting
Carbon ion radiation for vaginal or cervix mucosal melanoma
This trial studies whether carbon ion radiation can control mucosal melanoma in the lower female genital tract. It may help by targeting the tumor with high-precision radiation while trying to protect nearby organs like the bladder and rectum.
PaviaAges 20–80 - NCT05500391RecruitingPhase 2
Testing whether remote nurse monitoring works like in-person checks
This Phase 2 study compares two ways of checking your cancer follow-up: a doctor or nurse visits in person versus remote monitoring by phone and imaging. The goal is to see whether remote monitoring can safely replace or match in-person care for certain low-risk cancers and after surgery.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT05504291RecruitingPhase 2
Treatment delivered inside the eye for retinoblastoma
This Phase 2 study tests a way to deliver cancer treatment directly inside the eye to treat retinoblastoma. It may help shrink the tumor while limiting treatment to the eye when possible.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 18 years - NCT05504681Recruiting
Using brain test markers in a cancer clinic visit
This study adds special brain “biomarker” tests into routine visits for adults with brain tumors. It may help the clinic better track these cancers over time and tailor care.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05518383RecruitingPhase 4
Pediatric B-cell lymphoma treatment study using established care
This trial studies treatment for children and teens with certain B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas using a specific treatment protocol. It may help doctors confirm how well the regimen works in young patients and improve care over time.
Moscow, RFAges 1 day–18 years - NCT05522959Recruiting
Exercise rehab for breast cancer recovery
This trial tests an exercise-based rehabilitation program for people who have had early-stage breast cancer and are finishing or currently getting standard treatments like chemotherapy, surgery, radiation, or targeted drugs. It may help improve heart and breathing fitness during recovery.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05539677Recruiting
Research biobank and patient registry for aggressive solid tumors
This study builds a biobank and patient registry using tumor samples and blood. It helps researchers better understand aggressive cancers and may improve future treatments by testing immune (defense) responses.
Saint PetersburgAges 1 year+ - NCT05554003RecruitingPhase 2
Low-grade neuroendocrine tumors: metronomic temozolomide for frail patients
This Phase 2 study tests a gentler, steady schedule of temozolomide in people with advanced low-grade neuroendocrine neoplasms who are “unfit” for stronger treatments. The goal is to shrink or control the cancer while being safer for people with weaker health or organ function.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT05563467RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab for advanced adrenocortical cancer that keeps growing
This Phase 2 trial studies pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) in people with advanced adrenocortical carcinoma that has progressed despite prior chemotherapy. It aims to shrink tumors or slow growth by helping the immune system recognize the cancer.
Gliwice, Silesian VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT05564026Recruiting
Study of DNA patterns in childhood germ cell tumors
This study looks at “molecular” (DNA-related) features of germ cell tumors in children and teens. It also follows patients over time, which can help researchers understand tumor patterns and improve future care.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges Any age - NCT05574673Recruiting
Study of DNA repair traits in ovarian cancer patients
This study looks at certain “DNA repair traits” (called homologous recombination phenotype) in people with epithelial ovarian cancer. Results may help researchers better understand who responds to platinum chemotherapy, which is commonly used for this cancer.
København Ø, Region SjællandAges 18–100 - NCT05582538RecruitingPhase 2
Ceralasertib plus immunotherapy for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether a drug called ceralasertib can help the immune system work better, followed by durvalumab plus nab-paclitaxel. It is for people with advanced triple-negative breast cancer whose cancer returned after earlier treatment, including chemotherapy and immune therapy.
Novara, NovaraAges 18 years+ - NCT05592132Recruiting
Virtual reality to help children handle cancer treatment pain
This trial studies whether virtual reality can reduce pain and discomfort during painful medical procedures for children getting care for benign (non-cancerous) tumors or cancer. It may help make treatments feel easier for you and your child during procedures.
Saint-DenisAges 6–18 - NCT05598879Recruiting
New heart-cancer visit registry for adults
This study is a “registry,” meaning it collects health information from adults who are getting a new heart (cardio) evaluation related to cancer. It helps doctors better understand heart risks and care needs for different cancer types and treatments.
Weston, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05624996RecruitingPhase 3
Targeted high-dose radiation added to standard lung cancer treatment
This trial tests whether adding high-dose, targeted radiation to the usual treatment helps people with locally advanced, non-operable lung cancer live longer or better control the cancer. It may help shrink tumors in the chest and improve outcomes when surgery can’t be done.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05629689RecruitingPhase 1
PET scan drug check for people with solid tumors
This Phase 1 study tests whether an investigational PET scan tracer is safe and tolerable when used for PET imaging in people with certain solid cancers. It mainly looks at side effects and how well the scan can be done, not whether it treats cancer.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT05654675Recruiting
Scan method study for measuring tumor sugar use on PET
This study checks whether a specific analysis method (called FUR) can better measure how much “sugar” from PET scans is used by tumors. It uses regular PET/CT scans you may already get as part of standard care, and compares how the measurements work.
Maastricht, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05657990RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Preventing trouble peeing after chest cancer surgery
This early-phase trial tests whether taking tamsulosin-like treatment around the time of chest cancer surgery can prevent urinary retention, when people cannot pee after surgery. It may help lower the chance of needing extra catheter care after the operation.
Brick, New JerseyAges 55 years+ - NCT05658640RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing trametinib and steroid plus chemo for relapsed blood cancers
This early-phase trial tests whether adding trametinib and dexamethasone to standard chemotherapy can improve outcomes for children whose blood cancer has come back or did not respond. Because it is a Phase 1/2 study, the main goal is to see safety and learn the best way to treat your specific cancer type.
ViennaAges 1–21 - NCT05667857Recruiting
Tracking brain, mood, and quality of life after immunotherapy
This study follows people who have had advanced cancer and are now stable after immunotherapy, to see how thinking, mood, and daily life change over time. Some participants may also do an integrative brain-training program if they have memory or thinking problems.
Brussels, Brussels CapitalAges 18 years+ - NCT05674357Recruiting
Training therapists to help people with cancer distress
This trial trains therapists in evidence-based treatments to reduce distress related to cancer and cancer care. You may be able to join if you’re being treated or followed at MGH Cancer Center and your distress level is high.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05696002Recruiting
Track outcomes after advanced pelvic cancer surgery
This study follows people who have advanced pelvic cancer surgery that removes more than one pelvic organ. It’s an observational study, meaning it mainly collects data to help improve how future surgeries and care are planned.
GlasgowAges Any age - NCT05711667RecruitingPhase 3
Letermovir to prevent CMV after stem cell transplant in kids
