Lenvatinib, immunotherapy, plus liver artery treatment before surgery
This Phase 2 trial tests whether giving lenvatinib and immunotherapy along with TACE (a liver artery treatment) before surgery can lower the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma coming back after surgery. It targets people with certain higher-risk early-stage liver tumors (CNLC IB/IIA).
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT05924841RecruitingPhase 2
Study drugs for advanced small cell lung cancer after prior treatments
This Phase 2 trial tests how well two study drugs (and a combination of them) work in people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It’s mainly for patients whose cancer has come back or who couldn’t tolerate at least some standard treatments, and it aims to see if treatment can shrink tumors and be tolerable.
Changchun, JilinAges 18–75 - NCT05927818Recruiting
Test a sentinel lymph node biopsy in early ovarian cancer
This trial studies whether taking a sample from the sentinel lymph node during surgery can help with staging early ovarian cancer. It may help doctors find spread to lymph nodes more accurately while limiting unnecessary lymph node removal in some cases.
Istanbul, TurkeyAges 18–90 - NCT05929222RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation with or without an antibody for early follicular lymphoma
This study tests whether adding obinutuzumab (an antibody medicine) to local radiation works better than radiation alone in early-stage follicular lymphoma. It aims to improve disease control while keeping treatment safe.
Sassuolo, Modena (MO)Ages 18 years+ - NCT05939167RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell treatment study for people with late-stage HIV
This Phase 1/2 study tests whether mesenchymal stem cells can help people with HIV who have lower immune cell counts. You would join a treatment plan and follow study rules closely, while the researchers track safety and early signs of benefit.
