Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06323369RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab plus chemo before surgery vs surgery alone for head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether giving tislelizumab (an immunotherapy) with chemotherapy before surgery works better than surgery alone for people with head and neck cancer that has not spread to lymph nodes. It's for cancers that can be removed with surgery, and the goal is to see if the pre-surgery treatment improves outcomes.
Guangzhou, YuexiuAges 18–75 - 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 - NCT06780826Recruiting
Atezolizumab plus chemo for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab to standard chemotherapy helps people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It is for those who have not had treatment for this stage yet.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT04602377RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab with standard chemo for ovarian small cell cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding pembrolizumab (an immune medicine) to standard chemotherapy can improve outcomes for people with small cell cancer of the ovary that has not been treated before. It may help your immune system recognize and attack the cancer while you receive chemotherapy.
AngersAges 12 years+ - NCT07554456RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
New Drug Combination for Advanced Esophageal Cancer
This trial tests a new drug called BL-B01D1 combined with an immune therapy (tislelizumab) and sometimes chemotherapy against standard chemotherapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this new combination works better and is safer than current treatment.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05582265RecruitingPhase 3
Study immune drug plus chemo before surgery versus surgery first
This Phase 3 trial compares two treatment plans for stage III/IVA head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC). One plan uses an immune drug with chemotherapy before surgery; the other goes straight to surgery first, to see which approach works better.
