ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT05838391Recruiting
Targeted radiation approach for anal cancer
This trial tests an adaptive, image-guided radiation plan for anal canal squamous-type cancers. It may help deliver effective treatment while adjusting the radiation based on how your body and tumor respond.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05854823Recruiting
Reduced radiation after surgery for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial looks at whether giving less (de-escalated) radiation after surgery is as effective and safer for people with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma who had a strong response to treatment before surgery. If you had no remaining cancer or only very small amounts of cancer left in the surgical specimen, this approach may help reduce side effects while keeping control of the disease.
Zhuhai, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT05889091Recruiting
Fat flap surgery to protect the neck after cancer treatment
This trial studies whether using a “fat flap” (a piece of your own fatty tissue, moved to the neck) during certain neck surgeries can reduce neck injury after head and neck cancer treatment. It is for people who need a salvage neck dissection because of persistent or returning cancer in the neck lymph nodes.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05893888RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing three investigational drugs for mouth and lung cancers
This trial tests whether PRV111, PRV211, and PRV131 are safe and work better than expected for certain mouth (lip/oral cavity) cancers and lung cancers. It may help by trying a new approach given directly to the tumor and then monitoring how well it shrinks and how safe it is.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18–100 - NCT05894083RecruitingPhase 2
PET-Scan Tailored De-escalation for p16+ throat cancer
This trial tests a treatment plan that may lower (de-escalate) therapy intensity for certain p16+ or HPV-positive throat cancers. It uses PET scan results and tumor features to try to keep cancer control while reducing side effects.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05941338RecruitingPhase 2

Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06187597RecruitingPhase 2
Toripalimab after chemoradiation for older esophageal cancer
This study tests whether adding a drug called toripalimab after standard chemoradiation can help older adults with esophageal cancer. The goal is to see if this treatment can keep the cancer from coming back after initial therapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 70–85 - NCT06190639RecruitingPhase 2
Sintilimab after surgery for node-positive esophageal cancer
This trial tests whether giving the immunotherapy drug Sintilimab after surgery can help prevent esophageal cancer from coming back. It is for people whose cancer had spread to lymph nodes and who have already had their tumor removed.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06248996RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a stronger radiation schedule for large head and neck cancers
This trial tests whether giving a slightly different schedule of radiation (more frequent, smaller doses) can improve treatment for people with large head and neck cancers. It is for patients who are getting radiation as their main treatment, sometimes with chemotherapy as well.
GävleAges 18–100 - NCT06272214RecruitingPhase 2
Adjuvant radiotherapy for esophageal cancer after immunotherapy
This trial tests if adding radiation therapy after surgery improves outcomes for people with esophageal squamous cell cancer who received immunotherapy and chemotherapy before surgery but did not achieve a complete response. It aims to see if this approach can lower the chance of the cancer coming back.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06353685RecruitingPhase 2
Less radiation after surgery for oral cancer with good response
This trial is testing whether giving less radiation after surgery is safe and effective for people with oral cancer whose surgery results were very good (no cancer cells or very few left). It aims to reduce side effects while still preventing cancer from coming back.
GuangzhouAges 18–80 - NCT06354140RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab plus S-1 for esophageal cancer after surgery
This trial tests a combination of the immunotherapy drug tislelizumab and the chemotherapy drug S-1 for people with a specific type of esophageal cancer that still has some cancer cells in the main tumor but no cancer in lymph nodes after surgery. The goal is to see if this treatment can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
