Immune cell therapy for CDH17-positive advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new treatment called anti-CDH17 CAR-T cells for people with advanced solid tumors that are CDH17-positive. The therapy uses your own immune cells, modified to target and destroy cancer cells, and aims to help when other treatments have stopped working.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05730608Recruiting
PET/CT scan test for high-risk breast cancer
This trial studies how an FDG PET/CT scan (a special imaging test that looks for active cancer activity) can be used in people with high-risk primary or recurring breast cancer. It may help doctors better identify areas of concern and guide future care.
DrammenAges 18 years+ - NCT06805396RecruitingPhase 2
Adding palliative care support during radiation for bone cancer pain
This study tests whether adding a palliative care team early while you receive radiation for bone metastases can improve your quality of life and reduce symptoms.
AmersfoortAges Any age - NCT05886374RecruitingPhase 1
Study of an investigational drug for advanced KRAS-pathway cancers
This early-phase trial tests a new investigational drug (HMPL-415S1) in people with advanced solid tumors that have limited treatment options. It aims to see how the drug is tolerated and whether it can shrink tumors, especially in cases with KRAS-pathway changes.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07372352RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for relapsed or refractory T-cell lymphoma
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (zeprumetostat, azacitidine, and a liposomal form of mitoxantrone) for people with a type of lymphoma called peripheral T-cell lymphoma that has come back or not responded to treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink or control the lymphoma.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06806059Recruiting
Exercise before bladder removal surgery study
This study looks at whether being active before bladder cancer surgery helps you recover with fewer problems. It tests how physical activity before surgery affects your health afterwards.
Munich, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT07617285RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T cell therapy for relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy called CAR-T, which uses specially engineered immune cells to target acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that hasn't responded to standard treatment. The goal is to see if this therapy can help patients whose cancer has come back or stopped responding to chemotherapy.
BeijingAges 18–70 - NCT07168200RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Adebrelimab with Chemoradiation for Advanced Cervical Cancer
