Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06706102RecruitingPhase 4
Study of Tiny Blood Particles During CAR-T Therapy
This study is for people getting CAR-T cell therapy, a type of cancer treatment that uses your own immune cells. Researchers want to understand a rare side effect called neurotoxicity by looking at tiny particles in your blood called extracellular vesicles.
Saint-EtienneAges 18 years+ - NCT06708858RecruitingPhase 2
Studying surufatinib with chemo and immunotherapy for advanced bile duct cancer
This trial tests a combination of a targeted therapy (surufatinib), chemotherapy (gemcitabine and cisplatin), and an immunotherapy (durvalumab or pembrolizumab) for people with advanced bile duct cancer that hasn't been treated with systemic therapy before. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06745076RecruitingPhase 2
Using a blood test to safely lower chemo for advanced Hodgkin lymphoma
This trial studies whether a blood test (ctDNA) can help doctors safely reduce chemotherapy for people with advanced Hodgkin lymphoma. If you have stage 3 or 4 Hodgkin lymphoma that hasn't been treated yet and are healthy enough for strong chemo, this study may be an option for you.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05226169RecruitingPhase 3
Iron medicine plus standard therapy for advanced stomach cancer
This Phase 3 study tests whether giving ferric carboxymaltose (an IV iron treatment) helps people with advanced stomach or stomach–esophagus cancer and iron-deficiency anemia. The goal is to improve safety and how well the standard first-line cancer treatment works.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06706570Recruiting
PIK3CA gene testing for breast cancer
This trial tests for a specific gene change (PIK3CA mutation) in your breast cancer cells. The results will help doctors decide if a targeted treatment is right for you. It's for people with hormone-receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread and not yet been treated in that setting.
Milan, MIAges 18 years+ - NCT06282497Recruiting
New radiation technique to reduce dry mouth in nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial compares a new radiation technique designed to reduce dry mouth (xerostomia) with standard radiation for people with nasopharyngeal cancer. It aims to see if the new approach can protect saliva glands while still treating the cancer effectively.
Zhongshan, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT02491099RecruitingPhase 2
