Match FDA cancer drugs to a tumor gene change
This trial tests FDA-approved cancer medicines in people with advanced cancer whose tumor has a specific gene or protein abnormality. It tries to see whether targeting that tumor “fingerprint” can help when standard treatments no longer work.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 12 years+ - NCT02633553Recruiting
Radiation after surgery for stage II or III thymoma
This trial looks at adding radiation after a complete surgery to remove a thymoma (a tumor from the thymus) at stages II or III. It may help lower the chance the cancer comes back by treating leftover microscopic disease after surgery.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT02743832Recruiting
Personalized surgery planning for early mouth cancer
This study helps doctors plan surgery more individually for early-stage oral (mouth) squamous cell carcinoma. It focuses on using tumor features found during evaluation to guide surgical decisions, aiming to improve treatment accuracy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 20–70 - NCT03042221Recruiting
Early re-biopsy to find why tumors survive targeted drugs
This study takes a small tumor sample early after starting targeted treatment (or uses blood if a biopsy isn’t possible) to look for clues—called biomarkers—about why some tumor cells survive. The results may help improve how future patients’ treatments are chosen for certain lung cancer gene mutations.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–85 - NCT03275194RecruitingPhase 2
HIPEC during interval surgery for advanced ovarian cancer
This trial looks at whether a heated chemotherapy treatment given in the abdomen during a planned second surgery (HIPEC) can improve outcomes for certain advanced ovarian cancers. It is for people who have already had initial chemotherapy and partially responded, with enough health to safely undergo surgery.
Mexico CityAges 18–70 - NCT03371407Recruiting
Study brain movement training in people with Parkinson’s
This study looks at how people with Parkinson’s adapt their movements and how their brain sensorimotor system works. It may help researchers improve understanding of Parkinson’s and refine movement-focused therapies.
MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT03032835Recruiting
Research study for calciphylaxis skin lesions
This study collects and stores information from people with calciphylaxis, a serious condition that causes painful skin lesions. It may help researchers learn more about the disease and improve future care.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT02938611Recruiting
Study to estimate care needs for stage 4 kidney disease
This study aims to find out how common stage 4 kidney disease is in a specific area and how it is being managed. It may help doctors plan better care by improving local estimates and understanding current treatment approaches.
AlèsAges Any age - NCT06585410RecruitingPhase 3
Study of an injected drug for early skin cancer
This trial tests a drug called cemiplimab given as a shot directly into an early-stage skin cancer tumor. It may help patients avoid more extensive surgery for certain squamous cell cancers on the head, neck, hand, or shin.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06162221RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of RAS inhibitors for advanced RAS-mutated lung cancer
This trial tests new drugs that target specific RAS mutations in advanced non-small cell lung cancer. It's for people whose cancer has a KRAS G12C, G12D, or other RAS mutation and who have already tried standard treatments.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT02699736Enrolling by invitation
HIV and hepatitis C study in European adults
This study follows people living with HIV who also have hepatitis C antibodies, to better understand how HIV and hepatitis C affect health over time. You may be able to join if you meet the age and enrollment requirements, even if your hepatitis C virus level is currently undetectable.
