This trial studies whether blood “liquid biopsies” and tumor genetic testing can help predict whether endometrial cancer will come back after treatment. Results may help doctors plan follow-up and additional care based on a person’s recurrence risk.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04199026Recruiting
Tiny implanted device delivers drugs to sarcoma tumors
This trial tests an implantable device placed during planned surgery to deliver cancer medicines directly to sarcoma tumors and study how they affect the tumors. It may be an option if your sarcoma has come back or spread and surgery is part of standard care.
Houston, TexasAges 10 years+ - NCT03295981RecruitingPhase 3
Bisphosphonate treatment to prevent giant cell tumor return
This study looks at whether taking a bone-strengthening medicine called a bisphosphonate after surgery can lower the chance that a giant cell tumor in a leg or arm comes back. It may help prevent recurrence after removing the tumor from the bone.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07062003Recruiting
Skin or soft tissue tumor radiation therapy using minibeams
This study tests a new type of radiation therapy, called minibeam radiation, for skin or soft tissue tumors that have come back or spread. The goal is to see if this approach can help shrink tumors while possibly sparing healthy tissue, and it's designed for people who may benefit from palliative treatment to relieve symptoms.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT01473784Recruiting
Robot-assisted mouth and throat surgery for head and neck tumors
This trial studies using a robot-assisted operation through the mouth to diagnose or treat certain non-cancer (benign) and cancer (malignant) tumors in the head and neck. It may help some people avoid more invasive surgery by using an approach that reaches the throat and voice box area through the mouth.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07625423RecruitingPhase 1
Gene therapy injection for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new treatment where a specially designed virus carrying an anti-cancer gene is injected directly into tumors in the head and neck area. It's for patients whose cancer has come back or spread after prior chemotherapy and who cannot have surgery or radiation.
Chengdu, ChinaAges 18–65 - NCT05283330RecruitingPhase 1
Tested 212Pb imaging drug for certain advanced GRPR tumors
This early-phase study tests how safe and tolerable an experimental radiation drug is for adults with certain advanced or metastatic cancers that show a target called GRPR. Doctors will also use special scans to confirm the tumor has the target so the treatment can be delivered to the right place.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07483658Recruiting
Salvage pelvic radiotherapy: 20 vs 25 sessions for recurring prostate cancer
This trial compares two schedules of pelvic radiotherapy for men whose prostate cancer has returned after surgery. Both schedules aim to control the cancer with fewer visits for one of them.
