Recruiting studies
- NCT06207799RecruitingPhase 2
Drug combo before and after transplant for high-risk myeloma
This trial tests a two-step approach for people with newly diagnosed, high-risk multiple myeloma who are eligible for a stem cell transplant. You'll get a drug called elranatamab before transplant to 'purge' the cancer, and then after transplant, you'll get maintenance therapy guided by how well your cancer is controlled. The goal is to see if this reduces the chance of the cancer coming back.

Trial tests transplant using a half-matched donor for high-risk leukemia
This Phase 1 trial tests a special bone marrow transplant using a related “half-matched” donor (haploidentical), without a specific immune-suppressing medicine (“IS-free”). It’s for adults with certain high-risk AML or MDS to see if this approach can improve control of the disease while tracking safety.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–75 - NCT04444869RecruitingPhase 2
Lower-dose radiation with chemotherapy for low-risk HPV throat cancer
This trial tests whether a less intense (lower-dose) radiation plan, combined with chemotherapy, can control HPV-positive oropharyngeal (throat) cancer with fewer side effects. It targets people considered “low-risk” based on tumor size and lymph node involvement.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07601737RecruitingPhase 2
Nimotuzumab with immunotherapy and chemotherapy for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of three treatments—nimotuzumab (a targeted therapy), a PD-1 inhibitor (which boosts your immune system), and chemotherapy—followed by surgery for locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. The goal is to shrink the tumor and improve survival.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06563479RecruitingPhase 3
Personalized vs. standard radiation for HPV-positive throat cancer
This trial compares a personalized, shorter course of radiation therapy to the standard longer course for people with HPV-positive throat cancer. The goal is to see if personalized treatment is just as effective while reducing side effects.
Hartford, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT05752149RecruitingPhase 2
Fluorescent-guided surgery for throat cancer patients
This study tests a special dye/light method during surgery for laryngeal and hypopharyngeal squamous cell cancer. The goal is to see if it’s safe and practical to help surgeons find the tumor more clearly.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07179692RecruitingPhase 1
CEA-targeted CAR-T therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a type of immunotherapy called CAR-T, which is designed to recognize and attack cancer cells that have a protein called CEA on their surface. It's for people with advanced cancers like colorectal, esophageal, gastric, pancreatic, lung, or bile duct cancer who have tried at least two standard treatments.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT05945875RecruitingPhase 1
Dual scans to find head and neck cancer spread
This early-stage study tests two different imaging (scanning) methods to better detect head and neck cancer. Your results from the scans may help doctors see where disease is before standard surgery to remove lymph nodes in the neck.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 19 years+ - NCT05092451RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CD70-targeting NK cell therapy for blood cancer relapse
This study tests an immune therapy made from cord blood “NK cells” that are engineered to attack cells with a marker called CD70. It’s given after chemotherapy that reduces your blood and immune system, aiming to treat relapse or refractory (not responding) blood cancers.
Houston, TexasAges 12–80 - NCT05901545RecruitingPhase 1
Test an iodine-labeled drug to map neck lymph nodes
This Phase 1 study tests a labelling of panitumumab with iodine (111In) to see how well it can identify lymph nodes in head and neck cancer before surgery. The goal is to improve lymph node staging (which can help guide treatment), with the main focus on safety and early performance.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 19 years+ - NCT06413212Recruiting
Personalized drug test for advanced cancer with fluid buildup
This trial uses a special test on your cancer cells to find which chemotherapy might work best for you. The aim is to treat advanced cancer that has caused fluid buildup in the chest or abdomen.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06137274RecruitingPhase 2
Adaptive radiation boost for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new way of giving radiation therapy, called adaptive radiation boost, for people with head and neck cancer. The goal is to see if this approach can better target the cancer and possibly improve outcomes.
