This trial tests a new type of chemotherapy (irinotecan liposomes) as a first treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer that has not been treated before. It focuses on patients with specific genetic changes (RAS or BRAF V600E mutation) or right-sided colon cancer, and looks at how well the drug works.

Study of BGC515 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental drug called BGC515 for people with advanced solid tumors, including mesothelioma and EHE, that have not responded to standard treatments. The drug works by targeting a specific cell signaling pathway (Hippo) that may be involved in cancer growth.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06547203RecruitingPhase 2
Cetuximab, irinotecan, and toripalimab for right-sided colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (cetuximab, irinotecan, and toripalimab) for people with advanced right-sided colon cancer that does not have certain gene mutations. It's for those whose cancer has gotten worse after standard treatments.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06544720RecruitingPhase 1
SCG142 TCR-T cell therapy for HPV-related cancers
This trial tests a new treatment called SCG142 TCR-T cells for cancers caused by HPV. The therapy uses your own immune cells to fight the tumor. It may help if other treatments haven't worked or are not available.
Qingdao, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT06506838RecruitingPhase 4
Anlotinib, chemo, and radiation before sarcoma surgery
This trial tests combining anlotinib (a targeted therapy), doxorubicin (chemotherapy), and radiation given before surgery to shrink high-grade soft tissue sarcomas. The goal is to make the tumor easier to remove and improve outcomes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06548919Recruiting
Treatment patterns for ESR1-mutated advanced breast cancer
This study looks at how Chinese patients with a specific gene change (ESR1 mutation) in ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer are currently being treated. It will help doctors understand what treatments work best for people whose cancer has stopped responding to hormone therapy.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06548672RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BC3195 for advanced or metastatic cancer
This trial tests a new drug called BC3195 in people with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have not responded to or cannot tolerate standard treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective for cancers that express a specific marker called CDH3.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05404347Recruiting
Testing treatment response in gallbladder cancer patients
This trial studies how gallbladder cancer responds to treatment. It is for people newly diagnosed who have confirmed cancer in biopsy results.
Varanasi, Uttar PradeshAges 18–99 - NCT07775703RecruitingPhase 1
Study of HS-20117-2 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an investigational medicine called HS-20117-2 for people with advanced solid tumors that haven't responded to other treatments. The goal is to see if it is safe and if it might help shrink or control the tumor.
