BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT05072600RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab after complete bladder cancer treatment response
This trial studies pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) in people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer who had a combined “trimodality” treatment and then achieved a complete response. The goal is to help control the cancer after the initial treatment is finished.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05080946RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Aspirin with chemotherapy to improve ovarian tumor immune features
This early-phase study tests whether adding aspirin to standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy can change immune (anti-tumor) features inside ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal tumors. It may help doctors better understand which patients respond and how aspirin could make treatment work better.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05088395Recruiting
Blood tests to track cancer signals after treatment
This study measures “circulating tumor markers,” meaning substances from cancer that can show up in blood, to better understand how cancer is doing after treatment. You may join if you recently received cancer care at a participating center and meet basic study and follow-up requirements.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05091255Recruiting
Cold therapy for desmoid tumors in adults
This trial tests whether “cold therapy” (cryotherapy) can shrink or control desmoid tumors. It may help adults whose tumors are located in certain body areas where cryotherapy is considered safe.
Bologna, BOAges 18 years+ - NCT05093335RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET scan test for CXCR4 in many relapsed cancers
This early study tests a new PET scan tracer (a radioactive imaging agent) that may light up a cell marker called CXCR4 in certain blood and solid tumor cancers. It may help doctors see where cancers are and how much CXCR4 they have, which could guide future treatments.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05103683RecruitingPhase 1
First-time test of TORL-1-23 for advanced solid tumors
This early study tests a new drug (TORL-1-23) in people with advanced solid cancers. It aims to find the safest dose and see how the tumor responds.
Fullerton, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05104619Recruiting

Amiens, PicardieAges 18 years+ - NCT05104736RecruitingPhase 2
PT-112 for thymus gland tumors after prior chemotherapy
This trial studies PT-112, a new treatment, in people with thymoma or thymic carcinoma that has grown despite at least one prior platinum chemotherapy treatment. It may help shrink tumors or slow disease progression, especially when surgery is not possible.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05106296RecruitingPhase 1
Chemo-immunotherapy with ibrutinib and indoximod for pediatric brain tumors
This Phase 1 study tests a combination treatment (ibrutinib plus indoximod along with chemotherapy) for children with brain tumors that have come back or are hard to treat. It may help shrink active tumor or control the disease when standard treatments can’t cure it.
Augusta, GeorgiaAges 3–25 - NCT05111964Recruiting
Ultrasound treatment for soft tissue sarcoma tumors
This trial tests a non-surgical ultrasound treatment (HIFU) that targets the tumor from the outside of the body. It may help by shrinking or controlling certain types of soft tissue sarcoma or desmoid tumors when they are hard to remove surgically or when surgery/chemo/radiation is not a good option.
Oxford, OxfordshireAges 18 years+ - NCT05112549RecruitingPhase 1
PD-1 antibody placed into brain fluid for metastatic cancer
This early-phase study tests a PD-1 antibody delivered directly into the brain fluid (intrathecal space) to treat metastatic solid tumors that have spread to the lining around the brain/spinal cord (leptomeningeal disease). It aims to see whether this approach can better control cancer in that area and whether it’s safe.
BonnAges 18 years+ - NCT05120596RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing an immune-targeting drug by direct injection into tumors
This Phase 1/2 trial tests T3P, a new treatment given directly into reachable solid tumors, to see if it is safe and can help shrink tumors. It is for adults with advanced cancers when no curative treatment is available.
Pamplona, NavarreAges 18–74 - NCT05120518Recruiting
Donate a child’s tumor tissue for research after passing
This study collects a child’s tumor tissue and cells after death to help researchers learn more about cancers and other tumor conditions. You can take part if the required consent and permission are completed.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT05124912Recruiting
Laser treatment for recurrent brain metastases after prior SRS
This study tests whether repeating treatment with a laser (along with a small biopsy) can control brain metastases that have come back after earlier radiation called SRS. It may help people whose cancer is stable enough for surgery and who have a specific, reachable brain spot to target.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05135975RecruitingPhase 2
Cabozantinib maintenance to help stop pediatric cancer from growing
This trial studies cabozantinib given after standard treatment to try to keep high-risk pediatric solid tumors from coming back or getting worse. It is offered to children and young adults whose cancer has not fully disappeared but is not progressing at the start of this maintenance phase.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1.5 years–40 years - NCT05141253RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Trial of RD133 for mesothelin-positive tumors after prior treatment
This early-stage trial tests whether RD133 can be safe and effective for people whose solid tumors have a high “mesothelin” marker and that have not responded to at least two standard treatments. If you qualify, you’ll be checked closely for side effects and whether the tumor responds.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT05142475RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study of GC101 tumor-infiltrating cells for advanced breast cancer
This early-phase study tests an experimental cell therapy made from your tumor’s immune cells (TILs) for advanced breast cancer. It may help shrink tumors or improve how long people stay in remission, but it’s still being studied for safety and effectiveness.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT05155878Recruiting
Study of factors that predict outcomes for certain pancreas tumors
This study looks at what features of certain pancreas and nearby tumors or cysts might help predict outcomes. It uses existing medical records (and consent, if applicable) and may help doctors better estimate prognosis for patients in the future.
UmeåAges 18 years+ - NCT05159245RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted drug access for adults with advanced cancer
This trial helps match people with advanced, hard-to-treat cancers to targeted cancer drugs based on lab testing of their tumor. It may help if standard treatment isn’t working or isn’t available, and if your tumor has a “targetable” genetic change.
Turku, Southwest FinlandAges 18–100 - NCT05166694Recruiting
