Study of MK-4208 for chronic myeloid leukemia
This trial tests a new pill that may help people with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) when other treatments have stopped working or caused side effects. It might offer another option for controlling the disease.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07708961RecruitingPhase 2
Temozolomide with or without WSD0922-FU for EGFR-mutant glioblastoma
This trial tests whether adding a new drug, WSD0922-FU, to standard chemotherapy (temozolomide) works better than temozolomide alone for a specific type of glioblastoma that has an EGFR mutation.

This study uses a new imaging tracer, called 68Ga-SorB, during a PET/CT scan to look at tumors. It may help doctors see cancer more clearly. The trial is for adults with certain types of solid tumors (such as melanoma, liver, lung, breast, pancreatic, ovarian, or bile duct cancer) who need a PET/CT scan as part of their care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07200102RecruitingPhase 1
Selinexor after CAR-T for high-risk multiple myeloma
This study tests whether taking selinexor after CAR-T cell therapy can help keep multiple myeloma from coming back. It is for people whose myeloma is high-risk or still has signs of disease after CAR-T.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06623396RecruitingPhase 1
Mesothelin-targeted CAR T cells for esophagogastric cancer or mesothelioma
This trial tests a new treatment that uses your own immune cells (T cells) engineered to find and attack cancer cells that have a protein called mesothelin on their surface. It is for people with advanced or recurrent esophagogastric cancer (cancer of the esophagus or stomach) or malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (a rare cancer of the lining of the abdomen). The treatment involves collecting your T cells, modifying them in a lab, and then giving them back to you after a short course of chemotherapy to help them work.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05986240RecruitingPhase 1
Danvatirsen plus venetoclax for advanced blood cancers
This trial tests a new drug called danvatirsen, first alone and then with venetoclax, for people with advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink or control the cancer.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07085442Recruiting
Targeted biopsy for breast cancer that has spread to lymph nodes
This study reviews patients with early breast cancer that has spread to a small number of lymph nodes. It looks at how well a special biopsy removes those nodes during surgery, to help guide future care.
BurnleyAges 18 years+ - NCT07874490RecruitingPhase 2
Osimertinib plus cyclosporine for advanced lung cancer
This study tests whether adding cyclosporine to the standard drug osimertinib can make it work better in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific EGFR gene change. You can join even if you haven't started treatment or have just started osimertinib within the last 3 weeks.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07726342RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a new drug for advanced HER2-positive breast cancer
This study tests a new drug, SMP-656, for people with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer that has stopped responding to previous treatments. The goal is to see if it can help shrink or control the cancer.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT07874542Recruiting
Blood test to help classify kidney masses before surgery
This study looks at whether a simple blood test can help doctors tell if a kidney mass is cancer before surgery. It aims to improve how kidney masses are classified and guide treatment decisions.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07458347RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new drug for advanced solid tumors with a KRAS mutation
This trial tests a new pill, KST-6051, for people with advanced solid tumors (like lung, pancreatic, or colorectal cancer) that have a specific genetic change called a KRAS mutation. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink or control the cancer, and to find the best dose.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07109219RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of AZD4512 alone or with other drugs for leukemia
This study tests a new medicine called AZD4512, given alone or with other cancer drugs, for people whose B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (a type of blood cancer) has come back or not improved after treatment. The goal is to see if it can help control the disease.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT07020221RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of VS-7375 for cancers with a KRAS G12D mutation
This study tests an experimental drug called VS-7375 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic change called KRAS G12D. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
