Spinal tumor treatment: ablation plus radiation vs radiation alone
This study compares two treatments for cancer that has spread to the spine. One group receives radiofrequency ablation (a heat-based treatment to destroy tumor cells) plus bone strengthening, followed by radiation. The other group receives radiation alone. The goal is to see which approach better controls pain and prevents spine problems.

MRI test to predict treatment response in pancreatic cancer
This study is testing a new MRI technique that may help predict how well pancreatic cancer treatments will work. You would receive a special substance (called hyperpolarized pyruvate) during a standard MRI scan.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07337161Recruiting
Radiation for skin cancer that spread to neck lymph nodes
This trial tests a focused radiation treatment after surgery for people with a common skin cancer (squamous cell carcinoma) that has spread to the lymph nodes in the neck or near the ear. The goal is to see if this approach can prevent the cancer from coming back.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06793475Recruiting
Aponermin before CAR-T for multiple myeloma with extramedullary disease
This trial tests whether a drug called aponermin, given before CAR-T cell therapy, can help people with multiple myeloma that has come back or not responded to treatment and has spread to soft tissues (extramedullary disease). The goal is to make the CAR-T therapy work better.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06891742RecruitingPhase 1
A study of a new cell therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new treatment called OriC902 for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) that has not responded to standard therapies. The treatment uses special immune cells designed to target a protein called GPC3 found on cancer cells. The goal is to see if this approach can help shrink tumors or stop them from growing.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07311083Recruiting
Lifestyle program for triple-negative breast cancer patients
This study tests a lifestyle program (diet, exercise, and support) for women with triple-negative breast cancer who are getting chemotherapy plus immunotherapy before surgery. The goal is to see if healthy habits can help during treatment.
Essen, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18–75 - NCT06920095Enrolling by invitation
Relaxation exercises for better sleep and less pain in lymphoma
This trial tests if progressive muscle relaxation exercises can help lymphoma patients sleep better, feel less tired, and have less pain. You will be guided through simple exercises using your phone.
Küçükçekmece, IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT05868876RecruitingPhase 1
Testing AK127 plus AK104 for advanced cancers
This Phase 1 study tests the safety and early anti-cancer activity of AK127 given together with AK104 in people with advanced solid tumors. You may be considered if standard treatments have already been tried or aren’t suitable for you.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07312786Recruiting
Virtual app for breast and colorectal cancer survivors
This study tests if a virtual app can help people who have finished treatment for breast or colorectal cancer feel supported and stay healthy. It looks at whether using the app is easy and helpful for cancer survivors.
Saint John, New BrunswickAges 18 years+ - NCT06908668RecruitingPhase 2
Adebrelimab plus chemo with or without radiation before breast cancer surgery
This trial tests adding a drug called adebrelimab to standard chemotherapy and possibly radiation, given before surgery for breast cancer that is HER2-negative and locally advanced. The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink tumors more effectively, potentially allowing for breast-conserving surgery.
BeijingAges 18–70 - NCT06598371RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of engineered immune cells for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new treatment made from your own immune cells (called tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes) that are genetically modified to fight cancer better. It is for people with certain advanced solid tumors that have not responded well to other treatments.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07306286RecruitingPhase 2
Cryoablation plus immunotherapy for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests combining cryoablation (freezing tumors) with a dual-antibody drug (PD-1/CTLA-4) for people whose locally advanced pancreatic cancer has stopped responding to first-line chemotherapy (AG regimen). The goal is to see if this combination can help control the cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07309315Recruiting
Testing a bacteria pill to prevent diarrhea from chemotherapy
This trial tests if a pill made from a harmless bacteria can prevent diarrhea caused by certain chemotherapy treatments. It is for people with advanced colorectal cancer or breast cancer who are about to start specific treatments.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07309211Recruiting
Durvalumab as maintenance therapy for limited-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial is for people with limited-stage small cell lung cancer who have already finished chemotherapy and radiation, and then started taking Durvalumab (Imfinzi) as a maintenance therapy. The goal is to see if continuing Durvalumab helps keep the cancer from coming back.

Blood test guided monitoring for advanced lung cancer treatment
This trial checks whether a blood test that looks for cancer DNA can help guide and monitor treatment in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It may help your team spot treatment response or changes earlier, so care can be adjusted appropriately.
