Testing dostarlimab with short radiation for MSI rectal cancer
This trial tests a new approach: giving the immunotherapy drug dostarlimab along with a short course of radiation before surgery, with the goal of avoiding surgery in many patients. It is for people with a specific type of rectal cancer (MSI-H or dMMR) that has not spread to other organs.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT07230977RecruitingPhase 1
GenSci139 for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 trial tests an experimental drug called GenSci139 for people with advanced solid tumors (cancers that have spread) that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how well it works.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT07530172RecruitingPhase 2
Radioembolization vs. External Radiation for Liver Cancer
This study compares two ways of delivering targeted radiation to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer): radioembolization, which uses tiny beads to deliver radiation directly through blood vessels, and external beam radiation therapy, which aims radiation from outside the body. The trial will help doctors understand which approach works better for patients with a limited number of tumors.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07636174Enrolling by invitation
Text reminders to help you get colorectal cancer screening
This study tests whether text messages can help you remember and complete colorectal cancer screening tests like FIT or colonoscopy. You'll receive reminder texts before and after your doctor's visit to encourage you to get screened.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06690528RecruitingPhase 2
Surgery vs. palliative care for pancreatic cancer with limited liver spread
This trial compares surgery to remove the primary tumor and up to 3 liver spots against standard palliative care for people with pancreatic cancer that has spread only to the liver (up to 3 spots). It is for those whose cancer has not grown after initial chemotherapy and who are healthy enough for surgery.
Padova, ItalyAges 18–75 - NCT07232875RecruitingPhase 3
New drug combo for first-line advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new drug (HRS-4642) combined with standard chemotherapy as a first treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer that has spread. It may help shrink tumors and extend life.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07231120RecruitingPhase 1
Testing SXRN injection for cancer-related weight loss
This trial tests a new injection called SXRN for people with advanced cancer who have lost weight and appetite (cancer cachexia). The goal is to see if it is safe and might help improve weight and appetite.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07238881RecruitingPhase 2
Dalpiciclib plus camrelizumab for liver cancer after immunotherapy
This trial tests two drugs, dalpiciclib and camrelizumab, for people with advanced liver cancer (stage C) whose cancer has grown despite previous immunotherapy. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink or slow the cancer.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07076212RecruitingPhase 2
