This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy with either bevacizumab or cetuximab as a second-line treatment for advanced colorectal cancer. It aims to find which option works better for patients whose first treatment failed.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06540846Recruiting
Deep learning study for gynecologic muscle tumors
This trial uses a computer to study tissue samples from uterine muscle tumors (like fibroids and rare cancers). The goal is to improve how doctors classify these tumors and predict patient outcomes.
BordeauxAges Any age - NCT07256756RecruitingPhase 1
A study of GC203 TIL for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new treatment called GC203 TIL, which uses your own immune cells to fight advanced solid tumors. It's for people who have tried standard treatments and have a tumor that can be removed to create this therapy.
ShenzhenAges 18–75 - NCT07198659RecruitingEarly Phase 1
New immune cell therapy for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new treatment using your own immune cells (called neutrophils) that are loaded with a drug to fight pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. It may be an option if standard treatments have stopped working or caused bad side effects.
Xi’an, ShanxiAges 18–70 - NCT04747236RecruitingPhase 2
Study of oral azacytidine plus romidepsin for relapsed T-cell lymphoma
This trial tests whether an oral drug (azacytidine) plus romidepsin works better than a standard “doctor’s choice” treatment for people with relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma. It’s for adults whose disease has come back or did not respond after prior treatment.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06541639RecruitingPhase 1
Immune cell therapy for advanced solid tumors
This study tests a new immune cell therapy (EVM16) given alone or with another drug (tislelizumab) for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the combination can help shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06809933Recruiting
Exercise and movement for gynecologic cancer patients
This study tests whether adding an exercise and activity tracking program can help patients with newly diagnosed gynecologic cancer feel better and handle treatment more easily. You'll wear a Fitbit and get guidance on movement while you go through chemotherapy or surgery.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06866041Recruiting
Prostate cancer markers and imaging for low-risk patients on active surveillance
This trial looks for new markers and advanced scans to better predict which low-risk prostate cancers might grow. If you have low-risk prostate cancer and are managing it with active surveillance, researchers want to see if PSMA-PET scans and tissue markers can give earlier warning of progression.
Milan, ItalyAges 45–80 - NCT06050980RecruitingPhase 1
Study of HSK40118 for advanced lung cancer with EGFR mutation
This trial tests a new drug, HSK40118, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has an EGFR mutation and has been treated with certain EGFR-targeted therapies before. The goal is to see if this drug can help when other treatments stop working.

Immune cell therapy for high-risk solid tumors in children and young adults
This trial uses a patient's own tumor-fighting immune cells (TILs) to treat high-risk solid tumors outside the brain in children and young adults. It has two parts: first, a tumor sample is collected during surgery, and then the immune cells are grown in a lab and given back to the patient to attack the cancer.
