Radiation drug combined with immunotherapy for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of a radioactive drug ([225Ac]Ac-DOTATATE) and an immunotherapy drug (Tislelizumab) as maintenance treatment for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) whose tumors have a specific protein (SSTR). If you have completed first-line treatment and your cancer shows SSTR on a PET scan, this study may be an option.

Hyaluronic Acid and Oxygen Therapy for Menopause Symptoms
This trial tests a combination of a vaginal gel (hyaluronic acid) and a special oxygen device for women experiencing vaginal dryness and discomfort due to menopause, including those with a history of breast cancer. It aims to see if this treatment can improve symptoms better than standard care.

RC48 plus gemcitabine before bladder cancer surgery
This trial tests a combination of an antibody-drug conjugate (RC48) plus chemotherapy (gemcitabine) given before bladder removal surgery. It is for people with HER2-positive bladder cancer that has grown into the muscle layer.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT07410520RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo for brain lymphoma
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (rituximab, methotrexate, and orelabrutinib) plus a PD-1 inhibitor for newly diagnosed or relapsed central nervous system lymphoma. The goal is to see if this new combination can improve outcomes for patients with this rare type of lymphoma.
