Shandong, ProvinceAges 18 years+ - NCT06037733Recruiting
Focused radiation to main tumor after chemo-immunotherapy for lung cancer
This trial is for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer whose tumors responded well to initial chemo-immunotherapy. Instead of giving full chest radiation, doctors will only target the main tumor to see if it can prevent regrowth with fewer side effects.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT07672860RecruitingPhase 2
UDCA to protect kidneys during partial nephrectomy
This clinical trial is testing whether a medicine called ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) can help protect the kidneys during partial nephrectomy (removing only the tumor while keeping the healthy part of the kidney). It is for people with early-stage kidney tumors who will have temporary interruption of blood flow to the kidney during surgery.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT07426484RecruitingPhase 4
Testing cosibelimab for advanced skin cancer in specific patients
This trial tests an immunotherapy drug called cosibelimab for patients with advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma who have either had a kidney transplant or have a blood cancer like lymphoma or myeloma. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors when surgery or radiation is not an option.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05302037RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cell therapy for advanced cancers that can be targeted
This early-phase study tests a lab-made immune cell treatment that is designed to find and attack tumors that show a specific target on cancer cells. It is for adults with advanced cancers that have not responded well to at least two standard treatments.
SingaporeAges 21 years+ - NCT05681195RecruitingPhase 2
Zanubrutinib plus pemetrexed for recurrent brain lymphomas
This trial tests zanubrutinib (a targeted lymphoma medicine) together with pemetrexed (chemotherapy) for lymphoma that has come back or did not respond well in or around the brain. It may help shrink measurable lymphoma and improve control of disease after prior treatments.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05240950RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T cell therapy for colorectal cancer in the liver
This Phase 1 study tests an anti-CEA CAR-T cell treatment for people whose colorectal cancer spread to the liver but has been surgically removed with no visible remaining tumor. It aims to see if the treatment can better prevent the cancer from coming back, especially when early warning tests suggest leftover cancer cells.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07445048RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy for high-risk head and neck cancer
This trial tests if adding a targeted drug (nimotuzumab) and an immunotherapy (benmelstobart) after surgery and radiation can help prevent cancer from returning in patients with high-risk head and neck cancer who cannot take cisplatin chemotherapy.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07303387RecruitingPhase 2
Valemetostat for solid tumors with SWI/SNF gene changes
This trial tests a new drug, valemetostat, for solid tumors that have specific genetic changes (like loss of SMARCB1, SMARCA4, or ARID1A). It is for people whose cancer has continued to grow despite other treatments. The study will see if valemetostat can help shrink or slow tumors.
Villejuif, Val de MarneAges 18 years+ - NCT07579208RecruitingPhase 1
CAR NK cells for recurrent glioblastoma brain tumors
This trial tests engineered immune cells (called NK cells) that are designed to fight glioblastoma, a deadly brain cancer. The cells are injected directly into the tumor and may help patients whose cancer has come back after standard treatment.
