BeijingAges 3–30 - NCT04997993RecruitingPhase 1
Leflunomide for PTEN-altered or HER2-negative metastatic cancers
This Phase 1 trial studies whether leflunomide can slow or control advanced (metastatic) cancers in people whose tumors have specific PTEN changes or who have HER2-negative breast cancer. It’s primarily a safety-and-dosing study, but it may offer benefit if your cancer matches the tumor marker requirements.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04762862Enrolling by invitation
Testing gene-guided cancer treatment changes in advanced tumors
This trial studies whether measuring changes in your tumor’s genes (from pangenomic quantitative testing) can help guide cancer treatment when standard cures aren’t available. It may help doctors choose therapies based on what your tumor shows.
NiceAges Any age - NCT05228106Recruiting
PSMA scan using 68Ga-PSMA-617 PET/CT
This study looks at a PSMA-targeted PET/CT scan using 68Ga-PSMA-617 for tumors that show a specific marker (PSMA). It’s meant to help confirm or evaluate suspected or known PSMA-expressing tumors in real-life clinical practice.
Sherbrooke, QuebecAges Any age - NCT05203172RecruitingPhase 4
Continue encorafenib and binimetinib after prior trial benefit
This study lets people who previously took encorafenib and binimetinib continue those same medicines if they are benefiting and side effects are not severe. It’s meant to help participants stay on treatment safely while the original trial is completed.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04893785RecruitingPhase 2
Cabozantinib plus temozolomide for advanced neuroendocrine lung tumors
This Phase 2 study tests whether combining cabozantinib with temozolomide can control advanced lung or gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors that have grown after prior treatments. It also closely monitors safety, including blood counts, organ function, and other side effects.
Naples, CampaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05151718Recruiting
Study of ependymoma treatment resistance in children
This trial looks at why ependymoma can resist (be harder to treat) after radiation or treatment. It studies children who are already being followed in specific existing programs, which may help researchers find better treatment approaches in the future.
ToulouseAges Up to 25 years - NCT05134142Recruiting
Quality of life after hemipelvectomy for pelvic tumors
This study looks at how people with pelvic tumors feel and function after a hemipelvectomy (surgery removing part of the hip/pelvis). It aims to better understand recovery and day-to-day quality of life after this operation.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT05098847RecruitingPhase 2
Freezing liver tumors plus anti-cancer drugs for spread cancer
