Navlimetostat and Pumitamig for Advanced Lung Cancer
This study tests a combination of two experimental drugs (navlimetostat and pumitamig) for advanced non-small cell lung cancer in patients whose tumors have a specific genetic change called MTAP loss. The drugs are designed to attack cancer cells in a new way and may help patients whose cancer has stopped responding to previous treatments.

Immunotherapy plus targeted drugs for advanced nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (sintilimab, anlotinib, and chemotherapy) for nasopharyngeal cancer that has returned or spread after initial treatment. The goal is to see if this combination helps slow or shrink the cancer.
Zhuhai, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT07583160Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
YS247 Vaccine for Advanced Prostate Cancer
This trial tests a personalized cancer vaccine (YS247) designed to train your immune system to recognize and fight your prostate cancer. It may help slow or stop cancer growth in men whose cancer has spread and stopped responding to standard hormone treatments.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07584577Recruiting
Nutrition Support During Cancer Treatment Before Surgery
This study tests whether a special feeding tube placed in the small intestine helps patients recover better after surgery for esophageal or stomach cancer. The tube delivers nutrition directly during chemotherapy or radiation before surgery.
PessacAges 18 years+ - NCT07585760RecruitingPhase 2
Two-drug treatment for newly diagnosed myeloma with kidney problems
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, CM336 and isatuximab, for people newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma who also have kidney problems caused by the disease. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the myeloma while also improving kidney function.
TianjinAges 18–80 - NCT07584161Recruiting
Radiation therapy comparison after cervical or endometrial cancer surgery
This trial compares two types of radiation therapy (a newer technique called MH-ART versus a standard technique called CF-IMRT) given after surgery for cervical or endometrial cancer. The goal is to see which approach works better and causes fewer side effects.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07585006RecruitingPhase 1
How nicotine affects the body: comparing e-cigarette liquids
This study compares different nicotine products to understand how they affect your body. Researchers will measure your heart rate, breathing, and blood samples during three short lab visits. The results may help scientists better understand nicotine's effects.
Columbus, OhioAges 21 years+ - NCT06722911RecruitingPhase 2
Adjuvant drug combo for EGFR-positive pancreatic cancer
This trial tests combining nimotuzumab with chemotherapy (nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine) after surgery to prevent pancreatic cancer from returning. It is for people whose tumors have a protein called EGFR, and whose cancer was removed with clear or close margins.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06722599Recruiting
Shorter chemo with targeted drugs for low-risk HER2 breast cancer
This trial tests whether a short course of chemo plus two targeted drugs (trastuzumab and pertuzumab) before surgery works well for people with early-stage, low-risk HER2-positive breast cancer. It may help reduce the need for stronger chemo later.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT06724133Recruiting
Mouth bacteria and colon polyps study
This study looks at the bacteria in your mouth and how they might be linked to colon polyps. Researchers want to see if certain mouth bacteria affect the body's immune system and increase the risk of polyps.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06722612Recruiting
Chemo plus targeted therapy for high-risk HER2+ early breast cancer
This trial tests whether combining chemotherapy with targeted therapy works better for women with high-risk, HER2 positive early breast cancer that hasn't spread to lymph nodes. If you've had surgery and your tumor fits certain high-risk features, you may be eligible to join.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT06722638Recruiting
Virtual reality for lumbar punctures in leukemia
This study tests if using a virtual reality headset during a lumbar puncture (a spinal tap) can help children feel less pain and anxiety. It is for children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or lymphoma who are in the maintenance phase of treatment.

Low-dose radiation to trigger whole-body cancer effects
This trial tests whether giving a low dose of radiation to one spot can help shrink cancer in other, untreated areas (the “abscopal effect”) in people with multiple metastases. It may help by boosting the body’s response to stereotactic body radiotherapy (focused high-dose radiation) for tumors outside the brain.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06019455Recruiting
