Early trial of BL-M07D1 for advanced HER2-positive digestive tumors
This early-phase trial tests BL-M07D1 in people with advanced digestive tract (and other solid) cancers that can’t be removed with surgery and have already tried or can’t use standard treatment. It’s studying whether the drug works and how safe it is, and whether HER2 tumor results are linked to benefit.

Tissue reinforcement for breast reconstruction study (REDEFINE)
This study tests a new tissue reinforcement device (like a mesh) used during two-stage implant-based breast reconstruction after a mastectomy. It is designed for women having their first reconstruction and may help support the implant and improve healing.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 22 years+ - NCT05865535RecruitingPhase 1
Dose study of AV-380 for cancer-related weight loss
This Phase 1 trial tests a new drug (AV-380) in people with solid tumor cancer who are losing weight and muscle because of cancer. It mainly helps researchers find a safe dose and see how the body responds, and it may offer a new option for cancer-related cachexia.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05844813Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Neoadjuvant chemo plus targeted treatment for high-risk retroperitoneal sarcoma
This trial tests giving chemotherapy together with a targeted treatment before surgery for people with a high-risk retroperitoneal sarcoma. The goal is to shrink or control the tumor so surgery can potentially remove it with minimal remaining disease (R0/R1).
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT02282969Recruiting
Testing a lung cancer screening decision helper for eligible adults
This study tests a patient “decision aid” to help people decide about lung cancer screening. It may help you understand risks and benefits and feel more confident about next steps.
Galveston, TexasAges 55–80 - NCT07460752RecruitingPhase 2
Alternative injection site for goserelin in breast cancer patients
This trial is testing whether giving the drug goserelin in a different spot on the body works just as well for suppressing ovarian function in premenopausal women with hormone receptor positive breast cancer. You may be a fit if you've already been on goserelin shots in your abdomen for at least 6 months.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–50 - NCT06491082Recruiting
Chemotherapy nerve damage study in solid tumor patients
This study looks at nerve damage (neuropathy) that can happen as a side effect of chemotherapy. It aims to understand how common it is and how it affects people being treated for solid tumors.
DehradunAges 18 years+ - NCT07730164Recruiting
One-Page Guide for Cancer Conversations
This study tests a simple one-page guide to help doctors have better conversations about cancer with their patients. It may help both doctors and patients feel more comfortable when sharing or receiving hard news.
TaoyuanAges Any age - NCT06490081RecruitingPhase 2
Trilaciclib to protect bone marrow during chemoradiation
This trial tests a drug called trilaciclib, given along with standard chemotherapy (etoposide plus cisplatin or carboplatin) and radiation. The goal is to see if trilaciclib can help protect your bone marrow from the side effects of treatment.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 40 years+ - NCT06489808RecruitingPhase 2
Linperlisib plus chemoimmunotherapy for relapsed large B-cell lymphoma
This trial tests a drug called linperlisib combined with standard chemotherapy and immunotherapy for people with large B-cell lymphoma that has come back or not responded to one prior treatment.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07460375RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of LCB02A for advanced solid tumors with Claudin 18.2
This trial tests a new drug called LCB02A, which targets a protein called Claudin 18.2 found on some cancer cells. It is for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07467629RecruitingPhase 1
Study of QLS5212 for people with advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called QLS5212 in people with solid tumors that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective.

BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT03019471Recruiting
Test for cancer using a noninvasive sample

Freezing bone tumors to cure them: a registry study
This trial is studying the use of a freezing treatment called cryoablation to completely destroy bone tumors that have spread from other cancers. It is for people who have only a few tumors or whose tumors are mostly stable, and who are healthy enough to undergo the procedure.
