AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT05529251RecruitingPhase 2
Reduce treatment for limited-stage testicular seminoma
This study tests whether you can have less intense treatment (“de-escalation”) while still treating a small, limited-stage testicular seminoma that is growing. It may help reduce side effects if you qualify.
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT05557552Recruiting
Chemo and immunotherapy plus chest radiation for stage III lung cancer
This trial studies a treatment plan that combines chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiation to the chest for people with unresectable stage III non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It may help by delivering anti-cancer drugs while also shrinking tumors with targeted radiation, especially for people who are not able to have the standard “chemo and radiation at the same time.”
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05588388RecruitingPhase 2
Testing bevacizumab with chemo and immunotherapy for small cell lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding bevacizumab to chemo plus immunotherapy (including atezolizumab) can improve outcomes in extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) that has spread to the liver. It may help by blocking tumor blood vessel growth while boosting anti-cancer immune and treatment effects.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT05624996RecruitingPhase 3
Targeted high-dose radiation added to standard lung cancer treatment
This trial tests whether adding high-dose, targeted radiation to the usual treatment helps people with locally advanced, non-operable lung cancer live longer or better control the cancer. It may help shrink tumors in the chest and improve outcomes when surgery can’t be done.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05652673Recruiting
Stopping immunotherapy after a good melanoma response
This trial studies whether it’s safe to stop nivolumab (an immunotherapy) after your melanoma has responded well to initial treatment with ipilimumab plus nivolumab. It may help some people avoid ongoing treatment side effects while still keeping the cancer controlled.
RotterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT05655312RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted radiation melanoma treatment with or without nivolumab
This early-stage study tests whether a targeted radioactive drug can shrink advanced melanoma, either alone or along with nivolumab (an immune-activating medicine). You may be eligible if your melanoma shows a specific target on scan imaging and has progressed despite prior melanoma treatments.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT05686434RecruitingPhase 2
Osimertinib after surgery for early-stage EGFR-mutated lung cancer
This trial tests osimertinib (a targeted pill) given after surgery to help prevent early-stage lung cancer from coming back. It’s for people with fully removed, high-risk stage I non-small cell lung cancer that has specific EGFR gene changes.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05687123RecruitingPhase 1
Adding sunitinib to Lutathera for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors
This early-phase study tests whether adding sunitinib (a targeted pill) to Lutathera (a radioactive treatment) works better for people with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. It also checks safety, since this combination has not been widely studied yet.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05691491RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Temozolomide plus M1774 for advanced metastatic cancers
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a combination of temozolomide and M1774 to see how safe it is and whether it can help shrink advanced cancers that have spread. It focuses on certain tumor types and specific biomarker results, and it may be an option if standard treatments have been tried or aren’t possible.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05726526Recruiting
Phone app monitoring to help people with advanced kidney disease
This study tests a phone app (with check-ins on things like blood pressure and weight) to help prevent complications in people with advanced chronic kidney disease. You may be a good match if you’re high risk and can actively measure and share your health data with a kidney care team.
Winnipeg, ManitobaAges 18 years+ - NCT05741164RecruitingPhase 2
Propranolol plus pembrolizumab for hard-to-treat breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding propranolol to pembrolizumab can “re-sensitize” tumors and slow cancer in triple-negative breast cancer that no longer responds to checkpoint immunotherapy. It may help some people whose cancer has grown despite prior pembrolizumab and chemotherapy.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05746325Recruiting
Tumor-pulse device for spinal cancer fluid spread
This trial tests whether Tumor Treating Fields (a non-surgical device that delivers treatment signals to cancer cells through the scalp/skin) can help people whose breast or lung cancer has spread into the fluid around the spine and brain. It focuses on people who have cancer cells found in spinal fluid and can safely use the device most of the day.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05756569RecruitingPhase 2
Enfortumab plus pembrolizumab for advanced bladder cancer variants
This trial studies enfortumab vedotin plus pembrolizumab (immunotherapy) for people with advanced bladder cancer that has a “variant” or non-urothelial subtype. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes when standard options have not worked or are no longer enough.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05806515RecruitingPhase 2
Carboplatin before surgery for high-risk BRCA prostate cancer
This trial tests giving the chemotherapy drug carboplatin before surgery to treat people with high-risk prostate cancer and an inherited BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene change. The goal is to shrink or control the cancer before an operation and improve outcomes.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT05810402Recruiting
Testing immunotherapy for advanced liver cancer using blood tests
This study looks at how well immune-checkpoint therapy (a PD-1 or PD-L1 immunotherapy) works for advanced liver cancer, using “liquid biopsy” blood testing to guide or monitor care. It may help your team better track your cancer and response without needing repeated tissue biopsies.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT05833659Recruiting
Comparing two breast reconstruction positions after mastectomy
This trial compares two surgical techniques for breast reconstruction: placing the implant under the chest muscle versus in front of it. It may help people understand which approach works better for comfort and healing after mastectomy.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05837767Recruiting
Radiation study for tumors that spread to soft tissue areas
This study looks at how a planned form of palliative radiation therapy treats certain solid cancers that have spread outside the brain to larger soft-tissue areas. It may help shrink tumors and relieve symptoms, but it also asks you to meet specific safety and treatment-timing rules.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05869682RecruitingPhase 2
Bright light therapy for fatigue and depression in prostate cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether a “bright white light” intervention can reduce cancer-related fatigue and depression in people with advanced prostate cancer receiving hormone-based treatment. If it works, it could improve day-to-day well-being while you’re on standard cancer therapies.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT05874401RecruitingPhase 4
Trilaciclib added to topotecan for advanced small cell lung cancer
This study tests whether adding trilaciclib (a medicine given with chemotherapy) can improve outcomes for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer who are being treated with topotecan. It compares trilaciclib versus a placebo (inactive pill) while you receive topotecan.
SevilleAges 18 years+ - NCT05878171Recruiting
Choices about life-saving treatment for kidney failure patients
