A study of three immunotherapy drugs for advanced melanoma
This study tests a combination of three drugs (relatlimab, ipilimumab, and nivolumab) as a first treatment for advanced melanoma that cannot be removed by surgery. All participants will receive the drug combination, and the study will look at safety and how well it works.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07430540Recruiting
A simpler colon cancer screening pathway
This study tests if a more straightforward screening process can work better for people referred with possible colon cancer symptoms. It looks at how a positive stool test (FIT) leads to a diagnosis.
EdinburghAges 18 years+ - NCT07621614Recruiting
Safe Surgery Guidance for Childhood Melanoma Using Genetics
This study helps doctors decide the safest surgical approach for melanoma and similar skin tumors in children and young adults by using pathology reports and genetic information. The goal is to avoid unnecessary surgery while ensuring the best outcomes.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Up to 25 years - NCT06648889RecruitingPhase 2
Isatuximab for relapsed or hard-to-treat T-cell leukemia
This trial tests a drug called isatuximab for people with a type of leukemia (T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia) that has come back after treatment or that did not go away. Isatuximab targets a protein on the leukemia cells, which might help the immune system fight the disease.
AugsburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06813365RecruitingPhase 1
A targeted therapy for EGFR-mutated advanced lung cancer
This trial is testing a new targeted pill for people with EGFR-positive non-small cell lung cancer. It's designed for those whose cancer has grown after other treatments, and it works by blocking a specific protein that helps the cancer grow.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07792590Recruiting
Focal therapy registry for prostate cancer
This study is a registry for people who have already had focal therapy (targeted treatment) for prostate cancer at Queen Mary Hospital. It aims to collect information about these treatments, which may help improve future care.
Hong Kong, Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT04677816RecruitingPhase 2
