Relma-cel and Tislelizumab for CNS Lymphoma
This trial tests a combination of two drugs for people with large B-cell lymphoma that has spread to the brain or spinal cord and has come back or not responded well to earlier treatments. The first drug, Relma-cel, is a type of immunotherapy that helps your immune system attack cancer cells. The second drug, Tislelizumab, helps keep your immune system active against the cancer.

Colorectal cancer data study at Xijing Hospital
This study collects and reviews medical records from patients diagnosed with colorectal adenocarcinoma at Xijing Hospital between 2013 and 2023. The goal is to build a dataset for future research—no new treatments or procedures are being tested.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–100 - NCT06789926Recruiting
Support program for oncology nurses
This trial tests a multimedia support platform and a therapy workshop (ACT) to help oncology nurses manage stress and improve their well-being. If you're an oncology nurse, you can join and learn new coping skills.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT05305924RecruitingPhase 2
Fulvestrant plus abemaciclib for ER+, HER2− advanced breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding abemaciclib to fulvestrant can slow or shrink ER-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer. It is mainly for people whose cancer has progressed despite prior treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor and an aromatase inhibitor.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06292845Recruiting
Using fluorescent dye to see tumors during surgery
This trial tests whether a fluorescent dye applied to tissue during surgery helps doctors see tumors and check if the tumor removal is complete. If you have a solid tumor and are scheduled for surgery, this study may improve the precision of your operation.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07268040RecruitingPhase 2
Study of SHR-7787 injection plus other cancer drugs for solid tumors
This trial is testing a new drug, SHR-7787, combined with other cancer treatments for people with advanced solid tumors that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink or control the cancer.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT07401498Enrolling by invitation
Studying side effects of lymph node removal in lung cancer surgery
This trial looks at complications from removing lymph nodes during surgery for non-small cell lung cancer. It may help doctors understand how to make surgery safer.
