ARC101 for advanced Claudin-6 positive solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called ARC101 for people with advanced solid tumors that are Claudin-6 positive. It aims to see if the drug is safe and can help shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07658196RecruitingPhase 1
TLR9 immunotherapy for stomach or appendix cancer spreading in the abdomen
This trial tests an experimental immunotherapy that targets a protein called TLR9 to help your immune system fight cancer cells that have spread into the lining of your abdomen (peritoneal carcinomatosis). It's for people with colorectal or appendix cancer that has spread this way and may also have some limited spread to the liver or lungs.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT06726720Recruiting
Real-world study of approved lung cancer drugs
This study looks at how well approved AstraZeneca drugs work for non-small cell lung cancer in everyday medical practice. It does not test new treatments, but gathers information to help doctors and patients make better decisions.
Aix-en-ProvenceAges 18 years+ - NCT06930352RecruitingPhase 2
Ziftomenib for newly diagnosed AML with NPM1 or KMT2A changes
This trial tests an oral drug called ziftomenib for people with a type of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has certain genetic changes (NPM1 mutation or KMT2A rearrangement) and who are not able to receive standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if ziftomenib can help control the leukemia.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07409272RecruitingPhase 3
Study of setidegrasib with chemo for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new drug called setidegrasib, given with two types of chemotherapy (mFOLFIRINOX or NALIRIFOX), for people whose pancreatic cancer has spread and has a specific genetic change called KRAS G12D. The goal is to see if adding setidegrasib helps control the cancer better than chemo alone.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06855277RecruitingPhase 3
AAA817 with hormone therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new combination treatment (AAA817 plus a hormone therapy) against standard care for men with advanced PSMA-positive prostate cancer that has spread and stopped responding to a previous hormone therapy. It may be an option if you haven't had certain prior treatments.
Homewood, AlabamaAges 18–100 - NCT07196241Recruiting
Care needs survey for young adults with cancer
This is a survey study to understand the needs of young adults (ages 15-39 at diagnosis) who have had cancer treatment. Your answers will help improve care for others like you.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 15 years+ - NCT05420064Recruiting
Help with family cancer gene testing and unclear results
This trial helps people and their doctors understand and act on genetic test results, including when results are uncertain. It tests whether a structured approach improves who gets tested in families and helps patients and primary care providers stay up-to-date.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 25 years+ - NCT07698535RecruitingPhase 2
Blood test to guide early stopping of prostate cancer therapy
This trial uses a blood test to measure tumor DNA and see if men with advanced prostate cancer can safely stop treatment with a drug called 177Lu-PSMA-617 earlier than usual, or switch to chemotherapy. It may help reduce side effects while still controlling the cancer.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT07491445RecruitingPhase 3
Daraxonrasib plus chemo for first-line metastatic pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new targeted therapy (daraxonrasib) combined with standard chemotherapy as the first treatment for people whose pancreatic cancer has spread. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink or control the cancer better than chemotherapy alone.
