- NCT05625594RecruitingPhase 1
Test brain-directed CAR T cells for CNS lymphoma
This Phase 1 study tests a new type of immune therapy (CAR T cells) placed directly into the fluid around the brain to treat central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma. It mainly looks at safety and how well the treatment can control the lymphoma when other CNS treatments have not worked.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05651802Recruiting
Brain MRI follow-up with or without preventive scans in SCLC
This study tests whether adding a preventive brain procedure (PCI) to standard follow-up brain MRIs helps people with limited-stage small-cell lung cancer stay disease-free longer. It compares “MRI only” versus “MRI plus PCI” after the cancer has fully responded to initial treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07146672RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Super DC cell injection to prevent cancer recurrence after surgery
This trial tests a new immune cell treatment called Super DC cells to see if it can stop tumors from coming back after they have been surgically removed. It is for people with solid tumors who have had complete removal of the cancer and show no signs of remaining disease on scans.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT06810349Recruiting
Using AI to find cancer origin from lymph node biopsy
This study uses computer intelligence (deep learning) to analyze cells from a lymph node biopsy to find where in the body a cancer might have started. It looks at past patient data and images to train a program that could help doctors in the future.
Chengdu, SichuanAges Any age - NCT06683885RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted drug combo for elderly DLBCL patients
This trial tests a combination of targeted drugs (Obutinib or Decitabine) with standard chemo (Rituximab, Cyclophosphamide, Prednisone) for elderly patients with newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who cannot handle full-dose chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this approach is safer and works as well.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 65 years+ - NCT07146074Recruiting
Early radiation vs. observation for high-risk bone metastases
This trial tests whether giving radiation therapy early to high-risk but pain-free or nearly pain-free bone metastases can prevent future problems, compared to waiting and monitoring them. It is for people whose cancer has spread to multiple bones and who have certain risky features in those spots.
Wilrijk, AntwerpAges 18 years+ - NCT06150365RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Personalized T-cell therapy for advanced solid tumors (KSX01-TCRT)
This study tests a personalized treatment made from your own immune cells (T cells) that are re-engineered to recognize and attack your specific tumor. It is for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. If you qualify, you will have a blood draw and a tumor sample collected to create your own custom T cell therapy.
BeijingAges 18–70 - NCT04656431RecruitingPhase 1
Hyperpolarized imaging for CNS lymphoma
This trial tests a new type of imaging scan to see if it can better detect and monitor brain lymphoma. It may help doctors tailor treatment by seeing how the cancer responds early on.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06667960RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of JK06 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called JK06 for people with advanced solid tumors that cannot be removed by surgery or have spread. It aims to see if JK06 is safe and effective.
AntwerpAges 18 years+ - NCT06911827RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Combination drug study for advanced solid tumor cancer
This trial tests a combination of two new treatments (QLP2117 and QL2107) for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard therapy. The goal is to see if the combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05896020RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug SHR-A1811 for gynecologic cancers
This Phase 2 trial tests SHR-A1811, a cancer medicine, in people with advanced or returning cervical, ovarian, or endometrial cancer. It may help shrink tumors, depending on whether you meet study safety and eligibility requirements.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT07401264Recruiting
Colorectal Polyp Image Collection Study
This trial collects video and images of colorectal polyps during a standard colonoscopy. It helps doctors learn more about polyps 10 mm or larger, which may be more likely to be cancerous.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT07562841RecruitingPhase 1
Gold nanoparticles and radiation therapy for advanced melanoma
This study tests a new treatment combining gold nanoparticles (Au-TMP), radiation therapy, and an immune-boosting drug (anti-PD-1) for advanced melanoma that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to help your immune system fight the cancer more effectively.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT05644431Recruiting
Study of immune environment in operable stomach cancer
This study looks at how the immune system behaves in stomach or lower esophagus cancer before standard (planned) surgery. It may help researchers understand which immune features relate to outcomes and treatment response.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT07619079Recruiting
Registry study of early colorectal cancer in polyps
This study collects information from patients who had a polyp removed from their colon that contained early-stage cancer. Researchers want to understand how these polyps are best managed and what happens to patients over time.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07281326RecruitingPhase 1
A study of AK138D1 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called AK138D1 for people with advanced solid tumors. It aims to see if the drug is safe and how well it works, especially for tumors that haven't been treated with HER3-targeted therapy before.
Harbin, HeilongjiangAges 18–75 - NCT06800196RecruitingPhase 1
Study of KNT-0916 for advanced solid tumors with FGFR2 changes
This study tests a new drug, KNT-0916, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific change in the FGFR2 gene. It may be an option if other treatments haven't worked or aren't available.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06800599Enrolling by invitation

Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06132737RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted radiation therapy for brain lymphoma
This trial tests a new targeted radiation therapy for lymphoma that has spread to the brain or spinal cord and has not responded to other treatments. The treatment uses a radioactive molecule (yttrium-90) attached to a substance that homes in on a specific marker (CXCR4) on the lymphoma cells, aiming to destroy them while limiting damage to healthy tissue.
