It’s mainly looking to find a safe dose and see how well the approach works in people with limited treatment options.
Brooklyn, New YorkAges 18–99 - NCT04921527RecruitingPhase 3
Chiauranib with weekly paclitaxel for tough ovarian cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether chiauranib combined with weekly paclitaxel can shrink recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that did not respond to platinum chemotherapy. It is designed for people who have limited treatment options after platinum-resistant or platinum-refractory disease.
Shanghai, ChinaAges 18–70 - NCT04923828Recruiting
Study drug resistance in very sick children with infections
This trial enrolls children in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) who have a severe infection. It aims to better understand germs and drug resistance so future treatments can be more effective.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 1 month–16 years - NCT06007404Recruiting
Understanding metabolism and inflammation in teens
This study looks at how metabolism and inflammation relate to diabetes risk in teenagers. It may help researchers understand why some teens develop type 2 diabetes.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 14–18 - NCT06844383RecruitingPhase 2
Talazoparib with or without enzalutamide for prostate cancer after abiraterone
This trial tests whether a drug called talazoparib, alone or combined with enzalutamide, can help people with a certain type of advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to abiraterone. It is for those who have a specific genetic change (HRR mutation) in their tumor.
