Pomalidomide with rituximab and methotrexate for brain lymphoma
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (pomalidomide, rituximab, and methotrexate) for people who have just been diagnosed with a type of lymphoma that started in the brain or spinal cord. The goal is to see if this drug cocktail is safe and effective as a first treatment.
Hanzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06554600RecruitingPhase 2
Study of zanubrutinib plus polatuzumab, bendamustine, and rituximab for relapsed DLBCL
This trial tests a combination of targeted drugs and chemotherapy for patients whose large B-cell lymphoma has returned or not improved after first treatment. The goal is to see if this mix works better than standard options.
Hanzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT05654454RecruitingPhase 3
Bevacizumab plus chemotherapy vs Avastin for advanced lung cancer
This trial compares a combination of anti-angiogenics (bevacizumab) plus chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin) against Avastin-based treatment in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to find out whether the study treatment is safer and works better for shrinking tumors and improving outcomes.
ArkhangelskAges 18 years+ - NCT06428422Recruiting
Probiotic supplement for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests if taking a probiotic supplement along with your standard lung cancer treatment can help you live longer and respond better to therapy. It is for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who have not tried immunotherapy before.
KonyaAges 19–90 - NCT06198400Recruiting
Dye test for blood flow after pancreas surgery
This trial uses a special dye to check blood flow in the remaining part of your pancreas after surgery. It helps doctors see if the tissue is getting enough blood, which can improve healing and reduce complications.
Prague, Czech RepublicAges 18 years+ - NCT06557590Recruiting
PET scan with FAPI tracer for cancer imaging
This study uses a special PET scan called 18F-FAPI-04 to take detailed images of different kinds of cancer. It aims to see if this scan can help doctors better find and monitor tumors.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–90 - NCT06556342Recruiting
Testing a new contrast agent for ovarian mass ultrasound
This trial is testing an investigational contrast agent (FRD001) to see if it improves ultrasound images of suspicious ovarian masses. The goal is to help doctors better tell if a mass is cancerous or not.
