Recruiting studies
- NCT04948749Recruiting
Stenting plus medication to prevent stroke from narrowed brain arteries
This trial tests whether placing a stent in a severely narrowed brain artery, along with aggressive medication, can prevent another stroke better than medication alone. It is for people who had a mild stroke within the last 30 days due to a 70-99% blockage in a major brain artery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT04977375RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Anti–PD-1 treatment plus focused radiation for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a cancer-immunotherapy medicine (an anti–PD-1 antibody, similar to pembrolizumab) combined with precisely targeted radiation to treat glioblastoma that has come back or progressed. It may help your immune system recognize and attack the tumor while the radiation targets the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04892173RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation plus a tumor injection, with or without cetuximab
This trial studies whether adding a special drug given directly into a head-and-neck tumor during radiation can improve outcomes. It also looks at whether cetuximab (an antibody medicine) should be added for people who cannot or should not have certain standard chemotherapy.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 60 years+ - NCT04923126RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Mirdametinib for children with low-grade brain tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests mirdametinib, a targeted medicine, in children and young adults with low-grade glioma (a slower-growing brain tumor). It aims to find the best dose and see how well the treatment works, especially for tumors with certain “MAPK pathway” changes.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 2–24 - NCT04892303RecruitingPhase 1
Planning treatment using radiation plus radioactive iodine for thyroid cancer
This Phase 1 study tests how doctors plan a combination of two radiation approaches—external beam radiation and radioactive iodine—for thyroid cancer that is not fully responding to standard treatment. It may help people who still have iodine-avid tumor spots, but whose iodine uptake looks too low to work well with radioactive iodine alone.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–85 - NCT04903795RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a targeted immune therapy for EGFR-mutant glioblastoma
This Phase 1 trial tests BRiTE, a custom immune “match” therapy designed to attack glioblastoma cells that have a specific EGFRvIII change. It’s for adults with newly diagnosed or recurring grade 4 glioblastoma, aiming to see safety and whether the treatment can shrink or control tumors.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT04906096RecruitingPhase 2
Paxalisib for repeat or resistant brain lymphoma
This Phase 2 study tests paxalisib to shrink or control primary CNS lymphoma that has come back or did not respond to prior treatment. It may help by blocking specific cell-growth signals that can drive this lymphoma.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04691817RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing tocilizumab plus atezolizumab after lung cancer treatment failure
This trial studies whether combining tocilizumab with atezolizumab can help people with advanced lung cancer that has already stopped responding to an immune checkpoint medicine. It may help when standard immune therapy (and other treatments) aren’t working anymore.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04797767RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Venetoclax plus CLAG-M for high-risk AML
This trial studies venetoclax combined with CLAG-M chemotherapy to treat adults with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or related high-grade blood cancers. It aims to improve control of the disease, especially in people whose AML is considered high risk.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT04852887RecruitingPhase 3
Testing shorter breast radiation after low-risk hormone breast cancer
This Phase 3 trial studies whether “less intense” radiation can work as well as standard radiation for certain early-stage hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancers that have a low Oncotype DX score. It may help reduce treatment burden while keeping cancer control strong.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 50–70 - NCT04774393RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study for AML after it returns or resists treatment
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a combination of medicines (decitabine/cedazuridine, venetoclax, and ivosidenib or enasidenib) in people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has come back or hasn’t responded. It may help control the leukemia by targeting cancer cells and specific genetic changes in the leukemia.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04802759RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing drug combinations for recurrent or advanced ER-positive breast cancer
This early-phase trial tests several combinations of cancer medicines to slow or control ER-positive breast cancer that has returned or progressed. It also checks safety and whether tumor or blood biomarkers can help match the right treatment to the right person.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04777994RecruitingPhase 1
Drug ABBV-CLS-484 for advanced cancers that lack options
This Phase 1 trial tests ABBV-CLS-484 in people with advanced or metastatic tumors when standard treatments have not worked or aren’t available. Because it’s an early study, the main goal is to find a safe dose and see how the cancer responds in different cancer types.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04731610Recruiting
Radiation after thymoma surgery versus watchful waiting
This trial compares two approaches after complete surgical removal of stage IIb or III thymoma: targeted radiation (conformal post-operative radiotherapy) or no further treatment right away (surveillance). It aims to see whether adding radiation lowers the risk of the cancer coming back without causing unacceptable side effects.
CaenAges 18–75 - NCT04722523RecruitingPhase 1
Cemiplimab plus chemo and other immune treatment for head and neck cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests how well cemiplimab (an immune treatment) can work when combined with chemotherapy and an additional immunotherapy for certain head and neck cancers. It may help shrink the cancer and improve outcomes, while also checking safety and dosing.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04271579Recruiting
Surgery for early prostate cancer spread seen on PSMA PET
This trial studies whether operating on a small, one-sided (unilateral) area of prostate cancer spread in the pelvic lymph nodes—found on a PSMA PET scan—can help control recurrence. It’s meant for people whose PSA is still low and whose spread appears limited on the scan.
HamburgAges 18–75 - NCT04665206RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing VT3989 for certain advanced cancers
This early-stage trial tests VT3989 in people with specific advanced (metastatic or unresectable) cancers. It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth in patients who fit the genetic or diagnosis-specific requirements.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04645602RecruitingPhase 2
Study of pembrolizumab and lenvatinib for lung papillomas
This early-phase trial tests how well pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib can treat respiratory papillomas that have spread to the lungs. It may help people whose lung disease is caused by human papillomavirus (HPV).
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT04683679RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus pembrolizumab and olaparib for certain breast cancers
This study tests whether adding the drugs pembrolizumab and olaparib (or similar “radiosensitizers”) to radiation can improve outcomes for women with advanced breast cancer that is triple-negative or ER-positive/Her2-negative. It’s designed for cancers that have spread or come back and where radiation is being considered to control disease.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04621435RecruitingPhase 1
PET imaging test for solid tumors using FAP-2286
This Phase 1 study tests a special imaging scan (using FAP-2286) to see solid tumors in people who have already been diagnosed. It may help doctors better detect where cancer is in the body and how to plan treatment.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03977233RecruitingPhase 2
Biopsies and FOLFIRINOX for non-metastatic pancreatic cancer
This Phase 2 study looks at different types (subtypes) of pancreatic tumors in people treated with FOLFIRINOX, a chemotherapy. It requires tumor biopsies before and after treatment to see how the tumor changes, which may help doctors better match treatments in the future.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–99 - NCT04546399RecruitingPhase 2
Blinatumomab with or without nivolumab for first relapse ALL
This study compares blinatumomab alone versus blinatumomab plus nivolumab in young people whose B-cell ALL has returned for the first time. It aims to see whether adding nivolumab improves control of the leukemia after relapse.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1–30 - NCT04513808RecruitingPhase 3
Compare IV versus inhaled anesthesia for esophageal surgery
This trial tests whether using IV anesthesia (given through a vein) or inhaled anesthesia helps people live longer without their esophageal cancer coming back after surgery. You’d be randomly assigned to one anesthesia type as part of potentially curative surgery.
ShanghaiAges 18–90 - NCT04529785Recruiting
Tested added ethanol vein treatment during repeat atrial fibrillation ablation
This trial compares two ways to help stop atrial fibrillation during a repeat procedure: standard vein isolation only versus standard isolation plus an added medicine (ethanol) into the vein of Marshall. It aims to see whether the added step improves results when atrial fibrillation returns after a previous successful treatment.
