Leicester, LeicestershireAges 18 years+ - NCT03606967RecruitingPhase 2
Individualized vaccine added to standard treatment for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding a personalized cancer vaccine to durvalumab (an immunotherapy), tremelimumab (another immunotherapy), and chemotherapy can improve outcomes for people with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. It may help your immune system recognize your specific tumor features.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03608631RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Exosome treatment for KRAS-mutated metastatic pancreatic cancer
This Phase 1/2 study tests an investigational treatment made from “exosomes” for people with metastatic pancreatic cancer that has a specific KRAS mutation (KRAS G12D). It aims to see if this treatment can control the cancer and is safe for patients whose cancer has grown or stayed the same after prior chemotherapy.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03643861Recruiting
Radiation after lumpectomy for certain early breast cancers
This trial tests a short, highly targeted radiation plan given in five sessions after lumpectomy for early-stage breast cancer. It may help treat the remaining breast area while aiming to limit exposure to healthy tissue.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–99 - NCT03691883Recruiting
Using an algorithm to stage tuberculosis
This trial helps doctors organize and “stage” tuberculosis (TB) using a structured approach. It may improve how care decisions are made by using confirmed TB information and donated samples/data.
Badalona, BarcelonaAges Any age - NCT03711890Recruiting
Advanced imaging to detect early pancreatic cancer during surgery
This study tests a special high-resolution camera that can see tiny details during pancreatic surgery to help doctors detect early-stage pancreatic cancer or precancerous growths called IPMNs. The goal is to improve how well surgeons can identify and remove diseased tissue.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT03787589Recruiting
Exercise program for people on dialysis
This trial studies whether a structured exercise program (using Nordic walking poles) is safe and helpful for adults with end-stage kidney disease who are on dialysis. You may be eligible if you can do the exercise safely and are able to consent.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT03789253Recruiting
Tracking genetic changes as low-risk prostate cancer becomes riskier
This study looks for genes and biological pathways that may explain why some men’s prostate cancer grows from low risk to higher risk. You may be followed using planned prostate biopsies after an initial low-risk diagnosis managed with active surveillance.
TaipeiAges 40–100 - NCT03842943RecruitingPhase 2
Before-surgery immunotherapy for stage III melanoma
This trial tests immunotherapy given before surgery to help shrink or control stage III melanoma that has spread to nearby areas (lymph nodes/region). If it works, it may improve outcomes after the melanoma is removed.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT03862859RecruitingPhase 4
Warfarin safety for people with atrial fibrillation on dialysis
This trial studies whether the blood thinner warfarin is safe and effective for preventing stroke and blood clots in people who have atrial fibrillation and need long-term dialysis. It may help your care team better balance clot prevention against bleeding risk.
