Multi-target immune cell therapy for advanced liver cancer

Dalpiciclib plus hormone therapy after CDK4/6 treatment
This trial tests dalpiciclib together with hormone (endocrine) therapy in people with HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer whose cancer has already responded poorly to a prior CDK4/6 inhibitor. It aims to see if this combination can better control the cancer after that earlier treatment has failed.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06830018Recruiting
New megestrol for advanced stomach or colon cancer with fatigue
This study tests a new form of megestrol (a medicine that can boost appetite and energy) for people with advanced stomach or colorectal cancer who also have fatigue and poor appetite. It is given as a first treatment, meaning you haven't had chemotherapy yet for your advanced cancer.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT06895733RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Pazopanib plus palbociclib for advanced solid tumors with 11q13 change
This trial tests two pills (pazopanib and palbociclib) together for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific gene change (11q13 amplification) and have stopped responding to other treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05665140RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Newly diagnosed myeloma study using blood-marker risk groups
This Phase 2/3 trial tests whether matching treatment choices to a patient’s myeloma risk pattern (using blood and scan results) improves outcomes. It is for people with newly diagnosed, untreated, symptomatic multiple myeloma who may also receive transplant-related treatment.
BerlinAges 18–70 - NCT07475286RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo for stomach cancer that has spread to the abdomen lining
This trial tests giving chemotherapy into the abdomen during surgery for stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen (peritoneal carcinomatosis). It aims to see if this approach can help control the disease better.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06897228RecruitingPhase 1
NK cell injection with chemo after solid tumor surgery
This trial tests an experimental NK cell therapy (PANK-003) given along with standard chemotherapy after surgery for solid tumors. The goal is to see if adding these immune cells can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
Anyang, HenanAges 18–75 - NCT06531135Enrolling by invitation
Counseling to help you adjust to breast cancer
This trial tests a counseling program to help people with breast cancer feel more positive and cope better. It's designed for newly diagnosed patients who can read and write Chinese.
TaipeiAges 20–70 - NCT06895928RecruitingPhase 2
Testing SHR-A2102 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called SHR-A2102, alone or with other cancer treatments, for people with advanced solid tumors that haven't responded well to standard therapies. It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Taiyuan, ShanxiAges 18–70 - NCT06876805Recruiting
Ultrasound contrast to check unclear liver spots
This trial uses a special ultrasound with contrast dye to get a clearer picture of liver spots that other scans (CT, MRI, or PET) couldn't fully identify. The goal is to see if this ultrasound can help doctors make a more accurate diagnosis.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT05867420RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
ASKG915 for advanced solid tumors that stopped responding
This early-stage study tests ASKG915, a new treatment, for people with advanced solid cancers that are no longer responding to standard care (or don’t have standard options). If you may qualify, you’d be screened with recent health tests to check safety and eligibility, and then receive the study drug.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06885671Recruiting
Shorter vs fewer radiation sessions for breast cancer
This trial compares two types of partial breast radiation: one session versus several shorter sessions. It aims to see if a single treatment is as effective and more convenient for women with early-stage breast cancer.
Prince George, British ColumbiaAges 40 years+ - NCT07158710RecruitingPhase 1
Study of HSK42360 for brain tumors with BRAF V600 mutation in children
This trial tests a new drug, HSK42360, for children with recurrent brain tumors that have a specific gene change called BRAF V600. The goal is to see if the drug can help when standard treatments have stopped working.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05856370Recruiting
Study for follow-up of Medtronic spine or skull devices
This study checks how well certain Medtronic devices for the skull or spine are working in real-world care. If you’re getting one of these devices, you may be asked to do scheduled follow-up visits and assessments to confirm safety and performance.

Study of a new antibody combination for advanced lung cancer after targeted therapy
This trial tests a new drug (JS207) that targets both PD-1 and VEGF pathways, given alone or with other treatments, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific gene change and has stopped responding to targeted therapy (TKI). The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
