Vancomycin for primary sclerosing cholangitis
This Phase 2 study tests whether the antibiotic vancomycin can improve primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), a long-term bile-duct disease. You may be eligible if you have confirmed PSC and certain blood test and safety criteria, and you can follow medication washout rules.
Monza, Monza E BrianzaAges 15–70 - NCT04919629RecruitingPhase 2
Tested treatments for recurrent ovarian cancer with fluid buildup
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding two medicines—APL-2 plus pembrolizumab or pembrolizumab plus bevacizumab—works better than bevacizumab alone for recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. It also focuses on people who have symptoms from cancer-related fluid (ascites or pleural effusion).
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06860815RecruitingPhase 2
Cemiplimab with liver radiation for breast cancer that spread to the liver
This trial tests a combination of a drug called cemiplimab (an immunotherapy that helps your immune system fight cancer) and a type of targeted radiation (Y-90 SIR-Spheres) given directly to liver tumors. It is for people with breast cancer that has spread to the liver and who have already had at least one type of chemotherapy.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06501482RecruitingPhase 3
Chemotherapy after liver surgery for colorectal cancer that spread to the liver
This trial tests giving patients a type of chemotherapy called FOLFIRI after they have had surgery to remove colorectal cancer that spread to the liver. The goal is to see if this additional treatment helps prevent the cancer from coming back, for patients who could not have a different chemotherapy before surgery.
Paris, Île-de-France RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT02931513Recruiting
Blood marker test in newly diagnosed PBC patients
This study looks at how a specific blood marker (sCD163) changes in people newly diagnosed with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). It’s mainly meant to see whether this marker could help predict treatment response, especially before starting UDCA.
Aarhus C, Central JutlandAges 18 years+ - NCT06504147RecruitingPhase 2
Radspherin for ovarian cancer with peritoneal spread
This trial tests a radioactive treatment called Radspherin given during surgery for advanced ovarian cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen. It is for people whose tumors are HR proficient (a specific genetic type) and who have already had chemotherapy before surgery.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07193862RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing a tiny device to find best treatments for liver tumors
This study tests a tiny device that is placed in your liver tumor during surgery. It checks how well different chemotherapy drugs work on your specific cancer, which may help your doctor choose the best treatment for you.
Lake Success, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07172282RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Immunotherapy for colorectal cancer liver metastases
This trial tests a new way to deliver immunotherapy directly into the liver for people with colorectal cancer that has spread only to the liver. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink tumors before surgery, and it may be an option if you've already had standard chemotherapy.
Lake Success, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06252753Recruiting
Observational study of durvalumab for liver and bile duct cancer
This study looks at how well durvalumab (Imfinzi) works for people with liver or bile duct cancer. It follows your treatment as part of regular care to gather more information.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–130 - NCT04421560RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing pembrolizumab, ibrutinib, and rituximab for PCNSL
This Phase 1/2 study tests how well a combination of pembrolizumab, ibrutinib, and rituximab treats primary CNS lymphoma that came back or didn’t respond after prior brain treatment. It may help shrink the lymphoma and control it in the brain and fluid around the brain.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06449937Recruiting
Local liver treatment for colorectal cancer that has spread
This trial tests whether treating liver tumors with surgery or ablation can help people whose colorectal cancer has spread to the liver and other organs. It may be an option if you've had only 1 or 2 types of chemotherapy and your non-liver metastases are stable.
Chuzhou, AnhuiAges 18–80 - NCT06476184RecruitingPhase 3
Adjusted chemo dosing for hard-to-treat ovarian cancer
This trial tests a different way of giving chemotherapy to people with advanced ovarian cancer that didn't respond well to initial treatment. The goal is to see if changing the dose and schedule can improve outcomes.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT07015138Recruiting
Comparing two radiation approaches for prostate cancer that has spread a little
This trial is testing whether giving radiation to all spots of cancer that show up on a PSMA PET scan works better than giving radiation only to the main tumor in the prostate. It is for men whose prostate cancer has spread to a few other places (up to 10 spots).
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT07723482RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of ML-016 for cancer that has spread to lungs or liver
This trial tests a new drug called ML-016 in people whose advanced cancer has spread to their lungs or liver and who have run out of standard treatment options. The goal is to see if ML-016 can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Miranda, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT06607458RecruitingPhase 2
Liver-focused chemo for metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests giving high-dose melphalan directly into the liver's blood supply, followed by standard cancer therapy, for people whose colorectal cancer has spread mainly to the liver. The goal is to see if this approach is safer and works better than standard treatment alone.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05863195RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a liver pump with standard chemo for colorectal cancer that spread to the liver
This trial tests whether adding a special chemotherapy pump implanted in your liver (hepatic arterial infusion) to standard chemotherapy works better than standard chemotherapy alone for people whose colorectal cancer has spread only to the liver and cannot be removed by surgery. The pump delivers high doses of chemo directly to the liver to shrink tumors and possibly control the disease longer.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07757165RecruitingPhase 2
Surgery after drug treatment for advanced stomach cancer
This trial is for people with advanced stomach cancer that has shrunk after initial chemotherapy or targeted therapy. It compares whether adding surgery to continued medical treatment is better than staying on medical treatment alone, with the goal of improving outcomes.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT05787197Recruiting
Blood test to guide treatment after colon cancer liver surgery
