Study of NWY001 for advanced solid tumors
This study tests a new experimental drug (NWY001) for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. It is a phase 1 trial, meaning it is early research to find the right dose and check for side effects.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05890287Recruiting
Chidamide plus hormone therapy after chemotherapy for breast cancer
This trial studies chidamide added to standard hormone (endocrine) therapy to help prevent breast cancer from coming back after initial chemotherapy. It may help by keeping cancer under control for longer in people with HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer who respond to first-line treatment.
TianjinAges 18–75 - NCT06496295Enrolling by invitation
Testing a new speculum for cervical cancer screening
This trial tests a new kind of vaginal speculum (the tool used to look inside the vagina during a pelvic exam). It is for people who have never had this exam before, to see if it works well for cervical cancer screening.
Englewood, ColoradoAges 18–65 - NCT06970639RecruitingPhase 3
Study comparing new targeted drug plus chemo vs osimertinib for lung cancer with brain tumors
This trial tests a new targeted therapy called furmonertinib combined with chemotherapy against the current standard osimertinib for people with a specific type of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread to the brain. It aims to find a better treatment option for patients whose cancer cells have a common EGFR mutation.
Guangdong, GuangzhouAges 18 years+ - NCT07441369Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Abemaciclib with chemotherapy for advanced colorectal liver metastases
This trial tests combining the targeted drug abemaciclib with standard chemotherapy (FOLFOX or FOLFIRI) for people whose colorectal cancer has spread to the liver and cannot be removed surgically. It may be an option if you've already tried two or three prior treatments without success.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT07253116RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of WJ22096 tablets for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new oral drug (WJ22096) for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to or cannot tolerate standard treatments. It may be an option if you are generally healthy enough to take part.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05008848RecruitingPhase 3
Text message program to help rural cancer survivors quit smoking
This trial studies a text-message based program to help people who smoke quit. It targets adults in rural areas who are currently in cancer treatment and want support stopping smoking.
Kingman, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06874530Recruiting
Isatuximab for multiple myeloma with 1q21 abnormality
This trial tests if adding the drug isatuximab to standard treatments helps people whose multiple myeloma has returned or stopped responding, especially if their cancer cells have an extra copy of a certain gene (1q21). The study checks how well these drugs work together.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT06943781Recruiting
Gastric cancer screening using high-risk gene detection
This trial is testing a new way to identify people at higher risk for stomach cancer using a gene test for Helicobacter pylori. It may help detect cancer early in people aged 40 and older.
