PSMA PET-guided radiation for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests a new way to plan radiation for high-risk prostate cancer. Doctors will use a special PET scan (PSMA PET) to find the main tumor inside the prostate and give it a stronger dose of radiation, along with standard hormone therapy. This approach might improve outcomes for patients with aggressive disease.

Study of MHB088C plus MHB039A for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a combination of two experimental drugs, MHB088C and MHB039A, for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors and help patients live longer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT03488953Recruiting
Two-step liver surgery using a living donor transplant
This study looks at a specialized liver transplant approach using a living donor, for people with colorectal cancer that has spread only to the liver and cannot be removed by standard surgery. It’s meant for cases where chemotherapy has helped stop or shrink the tumors, to improve the chance of successful treatment.
JenaAges 18 years+ - NCT02869516Recruiting
Acute leukemia patient database study
This study enrolls people who have been diagnosed with acute leukemia and collects health information in a database. It may help doctors better understand care outcomes and improve future treatment planning.
Marseille, Bouches-du RhôneAges 18 years+ - NCT07660211RecruitingPhase 1
Radioactive treatment for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a radioactive treatment (177Lu-PSMA-VG01) that targets a protein called PSMA on prostate cancer cells. It's for men whose cancer has spread and hasn't gotten better with other treatments.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06767007RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus immunotherapy for recurrent rectal cancer
This trial studies a combination of SBRT (a precise kind of radiation) and an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 antibody) for people whose rectal cancer has come back in the pelvis and cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink the tumor or stop it from growing.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT03692429RecruitingPhase 1
Testing new immune cells plus chemo for advanced colon cancer
