Durvalumab plus chemo before surgery for upper tract cancer
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (durvalumab) to chemotherapy before surgery can improve outcomes for people with high-grade upper tract urothelial cancer. It compares different treatment approaches based on whether a patient can receive cisplatin chemotherapy.
Kingman, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07475182RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Cell therapy for advanced solid tumors with specific proteins
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy (CAR-T and targeted DC cells) for people with advanced solid tumors that have specific proteins. It aims to see if these immune cells can shrink tumors or slow their growth.

JAK inhibitor for severe skin rash from immunotherapy
This study tests a JAK inhibitor pill for people with severe skin rashes caused by immunotherapy drugs like Keytruda or Opdivo. It aims to help control the rash and allow you to keep benefiting from your cancer treatment.
Quzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–80 - NCT06312982RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Chemo, radiation, and immunotherapy before rectal cancer surgery
This trial tests whether a combination of chemotherapy, radiation, and an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab) before surgery can improve outcomes for people with locally advanced rectal cancer that has specific protein/gene markers (pMMR or MSS). It’s designed for those who have not yet had any treatment for their cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06907628RecruitingPhase 1
Testing SHR-3792 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called SHR-3792 for people with advanced solid tumors that cannot be removed by surgery or have spread. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how it affects the tumors.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT06907160Recruiting
Chemotherapy plus immunotherapy before lung cancer surgery
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy given before surgery for stage II or III non-small cell lung cancer. Doctors will look at biomarkers in your blood and tissue to see how the cancer responds, which could help guide future treatments.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05007782RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new immune drug for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 study tests denikitug (GS-1811) alone or with zimberelimab in adults with advanced solid tumors. It’s looking mainly at safety and how the treatment works in people whose cancer has already been treated—or is not treatable with standard options.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05745233Enrolling by invitation
Testing immune therapy put into the belly for cancer fluid
This trial studies whether an immune-blocking drug placed directly into the belly cavity can help people with cancer-caused fluid buildup (malignant ascites) from stomach, pancreas, or bile-duct cancers. It may help shrink the fluid and slow the illness, but you must meet specific safety and treatment-history requirements.
Taichung, Please SelectAges 20 years+ - NCT07306338Recruiting
Integrative oncology program interest survey at USC Norris
This trial asks patients about their interest in an integrative oncology program combining standard cancer care with complementary therapies like nutrition or acupuncture to improve well-being.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06904495Recruiting
Sleep quality in young cancer survivors
This study looks at how well young people ages 15 to 24 sleep after finishing cancer treatment. It uses questionnaires to understand sleep quality and may help doctors find ways to improve rest for survivors.
NiceAges 15–24 - NCT05856383Recruiting
HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer drug combination study
This trial tests whether inetetamab combined with pyrotinib and vinorelbine works better and is safe for adults with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer. You may be considered if standard options have not removed the cancer with surgery and your body can handle chemotherapy and HER2-targeting medicines.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06904573RecruitingPhase 2
Probiotics for advanced bladder cancer
This trial tests if taking probiotics can help people with advanced bladder or urinary tract cancer that has spread. It's for those who have already tried immunotherapy. The goal is to see if probiotics can improve treatment outcomes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06728189RecruitingPhase 1
CD70-targeted CAR-NKT cells for advanced solid tumors

Blood and tissue tests to predict how tumors respond to radiation
This study looks at tumor tissue and/or blood “biomarkers” to help predict whether a solid tumor will respond well to radiation therapy. It may help doctors choose more effective treatments in the future, and it may guide your care during radiotherapy if you qualify.
