Test of ONC201 and weekly paclitaxel for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether ONC201 given with weekly paclitaxel can control platinum-resistant ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. It may help by shrinking tumors or slowing growth in people whose cancer has progressed after platinum chemotherapy.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT04469764RecruitingPhase 2
Abemaciclib for certain recurrent ovarian or endometrial cancers
This Phase 2 study tests abemaciclib, a targeted pill treatment, for recurrent ovarian or endometrial cancer that shows specific tumor genetic patterns. It may help slow or control cancer growth in people whose tumor matches the required test results.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06176989RecruitingPhase 2
Enasidenib for IDH2-mutated sinonasal and skull base tumors
This trial tests an oral targeted therapy called enasidenib for people with rare head and neck cancers that have an IDH2 gene mutation. The goal is to see if this drug can shrink or slow the growth of these tumors.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT03604315RecruitingPhase 1
PET/CT scan testing a new radioactive tracer for tumors
This early-phase study uses PET/CT scans to see how well a new radioactive tracer (a tiny dose of a special material) highlights solid tumors in the body. It may help researchers learn whether this tracer can better find and track tumor spots seen on standard scans.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04907643Recruiting
Virtual reality program to reduce stomach-cancer pain
