Study drug before surgery for HER2-low, HR-positive breast cancer
This trial tests SHR-A1811 given before surgery (neoadjuvant treatment) for breast cancer that is hormone-receptor positive (HR-positive) and HER2-low. It aims to shrink or control the cancer early and see how well this approach works compared with standard care.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–70 - NCT05912816RecruitingPhase 2
Kidney-protecting treatment for high-risk upper urinary tract cancer
This trial tests whether combining DV with tislelizumab can help protect kidney function in people with high-risk cancer in the upper urinary tract (the renal pelvis or ureter). It may help preserve the kidneys while treating the cancer more effectively.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–90 - NCT06728293Recruiting
HCC Liver-Link Study for Liver Cancer

Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18–75 - NCT07289997RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for advanced AFP-producing gastric cancer
This trial tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (iparomlimab and tuvonralimab) plus a targeted therapy (apatinib) and a chemotherapy drug (irinotecan hydrochloride) for people with a rare type of advanced stomach cancer called AFP-producing gastric cancer. It is for patients whose cancer did not respond to previous immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy.
Shijiazhuang, HebeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06727981Recruiting
Immunotherapy as first treatment for stomach cancer
This trial tests immunotherapy as the first treatment for people with advanced or locally advanced stomach cancer. It may help if you haven't had any prior anti-cancer therapy and are starting treatment soon.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–100 - NCT05912075RecruitingPhase 1
New pre-surgery radiation plus ASTX660 for rectal cancer
This early-phase trial tests adding ASTX660 (a new drug) to pre-surgery radiation for locally advanced rectal cancer. It aims to improve control of the tumor before surgery, making it more likely that the surgeon can remove it with clear margins.
Lyon, RhöneAges 18 years+ - NCT06723041Recruiting
Acupressure to lower anxiety during cancer treatment
This trial tests if acupressure—a gentle pressure technique on specific points—can help reduce anxiety in people receiving cancer therapy. It compares nurse-led acupressure sessions with learning self-administered acupressure.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07298772RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing SHR-4375 with other therapies for solid tumors
This study tests a new drug called SHR-4375 combined with other cancer treatments for people with advanced solid tumors that haven't gotten better with standard care. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and works against the cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07135128RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a radioactive drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new radioactive drug (225Ac-FAPI-XT) for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. It targets a protein called FAP found on many cancer cells, which may help deliver radiation directly to the tumor.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT05214222RecruitingPhase 2
New treatment for advanced esophageal cancer after past therapy
This Phase 2 trial tests penpulimab plus chemotherapy (with or without an added targeted pill called anlotinib) in people with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. It aims to slow tumor growth and improve outcomes, especially for patients who can’t have curative surgery or radiation.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06713122Enrolling by invitation
Mobile app education for gynecological cancer patients on chemotherapy
This trial tests whether a mobile app can help you manage symptoms during chemotherapy for gynecological cancer. You will use the app to learn about side effects and track how you feel.
AnkaraAges 18 years+ - NCT06718725Recruiting
AI for quick slide review during endoscopic biopsy
This trial tests an artificial intelligence system that helps doctors immediately examine biopsy samples taken during an endoscopic ultrasound. It may provide faster, more accurate results for patients with suspicious lesions.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT07728292Recruiting
Underwater removal of small gastric neuroendocrine tumors
This trial tests a special underwater technique to remove small type I gastric neuroendocrine tumors (5-9 mm) during an endoscopy. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective, which could offer a less invasive treatment option.
Hyderabad, TelanganaAges 18–65 - NCT06717880RecruitingPhase 1
Combination therapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug (IBI363) combined with either bevacizumab or furuitinib for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has worsened after standard treatments. It aims to find a more effective option for those who have limited alternatives.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06695689RecruitingEarly Phase 1
LM303 injection for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an investigational treatment called LM303 for people with advanced solid tumors like melanoma, lung cancer, or cervical cancer. It uses your own immune cells (called TILs) to fight the cancer, so you need a tumor large enough for cells to be collected.
TianjinAges 18 years+ - NCT06711965Recruiting
Custom molds for breast reconstruction shaping
This trial tests custom 3D-printed molds to help shape breast tissue during reconstruction. It is for people who are already planning a DIEP or TRAM flap after mastectomy.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06712459Recruiting
Study of transformed splenic marginal zone lymphoma genetics
This study looks at tissue samples from people who have a more aggressive form of splenic marginal zone lymphoma. It aims to better understand the genetic changes that happen when the disease transforms, which may help doctors predict and treat this condition in the future.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06711068Recruiting
Chemotherapy plus targeted therapy for HER2+ early breast cancer
This trial tests whether adding targeted therapy to chemotherapy after surgery can help prevent HER2-positive early breast cancer from coming back. It is for patients whose cancer has not spread to lymph nodes and who have certain tumor sizes and features.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT06709404Recruiting
Telehealth support for caregivers of HIPEC patients
This study tests a telehealth program to help caregivers manage distress and financial stress while caring for someone receiving a special surgery (CS+HIPEC). It aims to see if the program improves caregivers' well-being.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07376603Recruiting
Radiation therapy alone for early-stage nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests whether intense radiation therapy (IMRT) alone is effective for people with stage IB nasopharyngeal carcinoma (a type of head and neck cancer) that has not spread to lower lymph nodes or formed large, matted nodes. If you qualify, you would receive targeted radiation without chemotherapy.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–70 - NCT06708910Recruiting
Using AI and PET/MRI to predict breast cancer response
This trial uses a special PET/MRI scan combined with artificial intelligence to see if it can predict whether HER2-positive breast cancer will completely disappear after treatment given before surgery. The goal is to learn who might avoid surgery or get a more tailored approach.
Düsseldorf, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT06055738RecruitingPhase 2
Zimberelimab with chemo before surgery for cervical cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (zimberelimab) and chemotherapy before surgery for locally advanced cervical cancer that has not spread far. It aims to shrink the tumor to make surgery more effective.
