Checking if skin cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes
This study uses a test to see if a type of skin cancer called high-risk cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma has spread to lymph nodes. The goal is to learn more about how to detect spread early, which could help guide treatment decisions.

This trial compares two combinations of chemotherapy drugs given directly into the bladder to see which works better for patients whose bladder cancer has not responded to BCG therapy.
Moscow, MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT07746635Recruiting
Fecal transplant for obese women with polyendocrine ovarian syndrome
This study tests whether a fecal microbiota transplant (putting healthy bacteria from a donor into your gut) can help women with polyendocrine ovarian syndrome and obesity improve their chances of a successful frozen embryo transfer. It may help by balancing the bacteria in your gut, which could improve your overall health and fertility.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 20–40 - NCT07743021Recruiting
Blood sample study for better health screening
This study collects blood samples and health information over time to improve early detection of diseases. It may help researchers find ways to prevent serious conditions.
BalatonfüredAges 40 years+ - NCT07741929Recruiting
Genetic testing experiences for prostate cancer
This study looks at how patients and doctors feel about genetic testing for prostate cancer. It aims to improve how genetic risk information is shared and understood.
LondonAges 18–100 - NCT07745881Recruiting
Pain relief after lung cancer surgery
This trial tests a nerve block that may reduce pain after surgery for lung cancer. It's a technique that numbs a specific area in the back to help you feel more comfortable during recovery.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT07741448RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo and targeted drug before surgery for HER2-positive upper tract cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy (gemcitabine) and a targeted drug (Trastuzumab Rezetecan) before surgery to remove the kidney and ureter. It may help shrink the tumor and improve outcomes for people with HER2-positive upper tract urothelial cancer.
Huanggang, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06610851Recruiting
Monitoring low-grade brain tumors with a blood test
This study is looking at whether a simple blood test that checks for tiny molecules (called miRNAs) can help monitor people with slow-growing brain tumors. If you had surgery for a grade 2 or 3 glioma at Caen University Hospital and are still being followed there, this study might be for you.
CaenAges 18 years+ - NCT06029218Recruiting
Comparing one vs two proton beams for bone and spine tumors
This trial is testing whether using only one proton beam per day is as safe and effective as using two beams for treating certain bone and spine tumors. It may help reduce treatment time and side effects.
NiceAges 18 years+ - NCT06610604Recruiting
Thyroid nodule treatment and quality of life study
This study looks at how thyroid nodules affect your daily life and feelings after treatment. It compares quality of life in people who had microwave ablation versus those who had thyroid surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06118710RecruitingPhase 4
Can we skip dexamethasone before paclitaxel?
This study tests whether it is safe to skip the steroid (dexamethasone) that is normally given before paclitaxel chemotherapy. If you are about to start paclitaxel for a solid tumor, this trial may help reduce side effects from premedication.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06515626RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Modified t cells for multiple cancers
This trial tests a personalized cell therapy where your own immune cells are collected, modified to better attack cancer, and then returned to you. It is for people with various solid tumors and lymphomas whose cancer cells have specific markers.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–75 - NCT06598293Recruiting
Using smartphone surveys during and after radiation therapy
This study tests if regularly answering health questions on a smartphone can help doctors better support patients during and after radiation treatment. You will use an app to report how you are feeling, and your care team may use this information to adjust your care.
Yongin-siAges 19 years+ - NCT06581640RecruitingPhase 2
