This study compares giving focused, high-precision radiation before or after surgery for brain metastases. It aims to see which timing works best to control tumors and improve outcomes.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03787745Recruiting
Testing a heart-protection method after a blocked-artery procedure
This study looks at whether “ischemic postconditioning” (briefly changing blood flow right after opening a blocked heart artery) can improve outcomes in people with a specific type of heart attack. It’s meant for patients who get primary PCI (a catheter-based procedure to reopen the artery) soon after symptoms start.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT03815279Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Trial for active or high-risk smoldering myeloma treatments
This Phase 2 study tests a treatment approach for adults with active multiple myeloma (MM) or a high/intermediate-risk “smoldering” MM that hasn’t been treated yet. It may help by trying to control the disease earlier or more effectively, depending on what the trial drug(s) do.
ReykjavikAges 18 years+ - NCT03874052RecruitingPhase 1
Ruxolitinib plus venetoclax and azacitidine for relapsed AML
This early-phase study tests a combination of ruxolitinib with venetoclax, with or without azacitidine, for adults whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has come back or does not respond to treatment. It may help by stopping cancer cells from growing and improving blood counts, with the exact plan guided by the study arm you’re assigned to.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT03853915Recruiting
PET scan and HPV testing during chemoradiation for cervical cancer
This study looks at whether a PET scan (FDG-PET/CT) and blood HPV testing can help track cervical cancer responses during and after standard chemo-radiation. It may help doctors better understand who is responding and who may need different care.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT03860233RecruitingPhase 1
Oxytocin added to CPAP for obstructive sleep apnea
This early study tests whether adding oxytocin to your usual CPAP treatment improves obstructive sleep apnea. It may help see if oxytocin changes how well CPAP works or how people feel while using it.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT03862859RecruitingPhase 4
Warfarin safety for people with atrial fibrillation on dialysis
This trial studies whether the blood thinner warfarin is safe and effective for preventing stroke and blood clots in people who have atrial fibrillation and need long-term dialysis. It may help your care team better balance clot prevention against bleeding risk.
Herlev, HerlevAges 18 years+ - NCT03810651RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Radiation planning for kidney tumors in children and teens
This early study tests a type of radiation delivery (“pencil beam scanning”) for certain kidney cancers in children and teens. It may help doctors better target the tumor while reducing radiation to nearby healthy tissue.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges birth–30 years - NCT03830151RecruitingPhase 1
C-13 pyruvate MRI to help diagnose brain gliomas
This early-phase study tests a special MRI scan using C-13 pyruvate to help identify and understand gliomas (a type of brain tumor) in people with brain tumors going to surgery or biopsy. It may help doctors see tumor signals better before or around the time of your procedure.
Houston, TexasAges 19 years+ - NCT03853733Recruiting
Shorter radiation plan for non-surgery rectal cancer
This trial looks at a shorter radiation schedule for people with advanced rectal (or nearby sigmoid) cancer who cannot have surgery. The goal is to control the cancer while keeping treatment simpler, especially for those who cannot safely undergo an operation.
Terrassa, CataloniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03858205Recruiting
Low-dose radiation to relieve pain from bone tumors
This trial studies whether low-dose radiation can reduce pain from a specific bone lesion caused by multiple myeloma. It may help people whose main problem is painful bone metastasis, with targeted treatment to the painful spot.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03786796RecruitingPhase 2
Olaparib for metastatic kidney cancer with specific DNA repair gene changes
This trial tests olaparib (a pill medicine) in people with kidney cancer that has spread and specific DNA “repair” gene mutations. The goal is to see whether this targeted treatment can slow the cancer or help it respond better after prior immunotherapy or blood-vessel–blocking therapy.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT03735992Recruiting
Mind-body sessions for people with blood cancers in remission
This trial studies whether structured mind-body group sessions can support well-being and recovery for people whose blood cancer is in remission. It may be helpful if you can safely participate in group activities and are not currently receiving active cancer treatments.
StuttgartAges 18 years+ - NCT03873064Recruiting
Weight and quality of life in cancer patients
This study looks at how body weight (measured as body mass index, or BMI) relates to quality of life in people with solid tumors. You would fill out questionnaires about how you feel, and the results may help doctors better support patients.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT03802851Recruiting
Laser procedure before radiation for prostate cancer symptoms
This trial looks at whether doing a prostate “laser procedure” (called HoLEP) before starting radiation and hormone therapy can improve severe urinary symptoms and reduce urine retention problems. It is for people with prostate cancer who are planning radiation plus hormone treatment and who have significant bladder/urinary trouble.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT03862677Recruiting
Testing immune markers to predict outcomes in ovarian cancer
This study looks at immune-related markers in people with ovarian cancer to see if they can help predict prognosis (how the cancer may behave). If you qualify, your doctors may use your immune test results alongside other standard treatments like surgery, chemotherapy, and/or immunotherapy.
LeidenAges 18 years+ - NCT03819101RecruitingPhase 3
Aspirin plus atorvastatin for advanced, treatment-resistant prostate cancer
This trial studies whether daily aspirin and atorvastatin can slow advanced prostate cancer that has continued to grow despite hormone therapy. It may help by reducing cancer growth and inflammation, but you would need to meet several specific safety and medication rules.
OlomoucAges 18 years+ - NCT03737955RecruitingPhase 2
Gemtuzumab for measurable residual leukemia after initial treatment
This trial studies whether fractionated gemtuzumab can eliminate tiny, hard-to-see leukemia cells left after standard chemotherapy. It targets adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have measurable residual disease (MRD) rather than active leukemia in the blood.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT03803787RecruitingPhase 2
Inhaled steroid to prevent lung inflammation during cancer treatment
This trial tests whether breathing in steroid medicine before and during radiation can lower how often and how badly “radiation lung inflammation” (radiation pneumonitis) happens in people with lung cancer. If you qualify, it may help protect your lungs while you receive radiation with chemotherapy or targeted therapy.
Mexico CityAges 18–75 - NCT03836248Recruiting
Osteopathic care added to standard treatment for chronic low back pain
This study tests whether adding osteopathic treatment to usual medical care can improve chronic low back pain. It focuses on people whose back pain has no clear structural cause and has lasted more than 3 months.
ToulouseAges 18–64 - NCT03728673RecruitingPhase 2
Escitalopram for people with newly diagnosed grade 4 brain tumors
This trial studies whether escitalopram (an antidepressant medication) can help people with grade 4 glioma around the time they start standard cancer treatment. You may be screened especially for depression/anxiety status and medication history, because the study uses a specific mental-health medicine.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 19 years+ - NCT03750513RecruitingPhase 1
Tested improved radiation targeting for children with ependymoma
This early-phase study tests a more precisely targeted type of radiation for children with ependymoma, aiming to treat the brain tumor more accurately. It may help reduce how much healthy tissue gets radiation, and researchers are checking safety and best dosing.
