Recruiting studies
- NCT05733312Recruiting
Ultrasound treatment to temporarily open the brain blood barrier
This study looks at using focused ultrasound to temporarily loosen the brain’s “blood barrier” around certain brain tumors, while people still get standard surgery. It aims to help doctors learn how safe the approach is and collect blood/fluid samples during the operation.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05737953Recruiting
Testing a lab test to identify pancreatic cyst tumor type
This study builds a “molecular marker” lab model using pancreatic cyst fluid taken during planned pancreatic surgery. It aims to help tell which pancreatic cystic tumors are which, based on fluid analysis.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05740956RecruitingPhase 1
Drug study for cancers with HRR gene or HRD changes
This Phase 1 study tests HS-10502 in people with advanced solid tumors that have certain DNA repair problems (HRR or HRD). It may help by finding a safe dose and seeing whether the drug can shrink tumors in cancers that have specific genetic features.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - 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+ - NCT05746897RecruitingPhase 1
First-in-human test of an anti-PVRIG drug for advanced cancers
This early-phase study tests NM1F (an anti-PVRIG antibody) in people with advanced solid tumors to see if it’s safe and whether it may work. It also includes pembrolizumab (a PD-1 “checkpoint” medicine), aiming to boost the immune system against the cancer.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05749887Recruiting
Salvage surgery after chemo-radiation for cervical cancer
This trial studies whether doing surgery after standard chemo-radiation can help control cervical cancer that may still be present. It may be an option if your biopsy or PET-CT scan suggests residual tumor in the cervix and/or nearby pelvic lymph nodes.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05751733Recruiting
Apatinib versus standard drug for advanced GIST after imatinib
This trial studies whether apatinib works better than the usual second-line targeted tablet for advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) after imatinib (or avatinib) no longer works. It may help people whose cancer has grown despite treatment or who couldn’t tolerate it.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT05753722RecruitingPhase 1
First trial for PRTH-101 alone or with pembrolizumab
This early study tests PRTH-101, given by itself or with pembrolizumab, in people with advanced cancers that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if it is safe and how it affects the cancer.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05754892Recruiting
Using tumor lab markers during adrenal cancer care
This trial studies how to use lab tests (“molecular markers”) in routine clinical care to help manage people with adrenal tumors that could be cancerous. If you are having surgery soon (or recently), your tissue may be tested to see if these markers improve decision-making for your care.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05755672Recruiting
Study biomarkers during curative-intent treatment for metastatic colon cancer
This study looks at biological markers (substances measured in the body) during treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer. It may help doctors better understand how treatment works, using patients who are treated with a goal of cure.
Lund, Skåne CountyAges 18–110 - NCT05761366RecruitingPhase 2
18F-PSMA PET/CT scan for PSMA-positive tumors
This Phase 2 study tests an imaging scan called 18F-PSMA PET/CT to find tumors that have a specific marker (PSMA). It may help doctors better locate and evaluate PSMA-positive cancers.
Beijing, ChaoyangAges 18 years+ - NCT05763511Recruiting
Blood test to help diagnose ovarian cancer sooner
This study checks whether a special blood test (circulating tumor DNA) can help find ovarian cancer when it’s suspected. It may help doctors diagnose more accurately and sooner, so the right treatment can start sooner.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT05766098Recruiting
Genetic testing of papillary thyroid tumor samples
This trial studies the genetic “mutations” in papillary thyroid cancer tumors using tumor tissue. The goal is to better describe tumor genetic patterns, which may help researchers understand the disease.
Milan, MIAges Any age - NCT05768269Recruiting
Follow-up study for people previously treated with cellular therapy
This trial follows up with people who already received a Century Therapeutics cellular therapy treatment. It mainly checks how you’re doing over time and whether the treatment has lasting effects.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05770531RecruitingPhase 2
Blood test guides chemo changes for metastatic breast cancer
This Phase 2 study uses a blood test that looks for “circulating tumor DNA” to help decide if standard chemotherapy should be changed. It aims to see whether this approach improves how well treatment works for certain metastatic (stage IV) breast cancers.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05779917RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T cells for cancers that have specific target proteins
This Phase 1 trial tests a customized immune therapy (CAR-T cells) for advanced cancers that have the proteins mesothelin, GPC3, and/or GUCY2C. It may help your body better recognize and kill cancer cells, but early-phase trials mainly focus on safety and learning how well the treatment works.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05782686Recruiting
Shaving wound skin regularly after breast-conserving surgery
This study looks at whether regularly removing (shaving) small amounts of skin during recovery can improve surgical healing and outcomes. It focuses on people having breast-conserving surgery for certain early breast cancers.
L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05785052Recruiting
Study kidney cancer clues in blood or tissue markers
This study looks for “biomarkers,” which are measurable signs (often from blood or tissue), to better understand kidney cancer. It may help doctors identify who has kidney cancer and how it behaves.
FlorenceAges 18 years+ - NCT05787197Recruiting
Blood test to guide treatment after colon cancer liver surgery
This trial studies a blood test (called ctDNA) in people with colon cancer that has spread to the liver and is being removed with curative surgery. The goal is to see how the blood test can help with planning and improving treatment after surgery.
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT05797077RecruitingPhase 3
After-surgery blood test–guided therapy for colon cancer liver spread
This Phase 3 trial tests whether an added “maintenance” treatment after liver surgery can help prevent colorectal cancer from coming back. It is only for people whose blood test (ctDNA) still shows signs of cancer after their operation.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05802186Recruiting
