ArgenteuilAges 18 years+ - NCT05410730RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Early bladder cancer study using new drugs and BCG
This trial tests whether a new bladder cancer drug (SHR-1501) works alone or combined with BCG, and compares options with another drug (SHR-1316), in people with high-risk non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It may help reduce cancer coming back and improve control of the disease.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06990464RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial is testing an investigational drug called SIBP-A19 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT07235202RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
MR001 plus chemo for advanced pancreatic cancer after first treatment
This trial tests a new drug, MR001, combined with chemotherapy for people whose pancreatic cancer has spread and no longer responds to their first treatment. It aims to see if this combination can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06479759RecruitingPhase 2
LM-108 with sintilimab for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new antibody combination for non-small cell lung cancer that has spread or come back. It may help people whose cancer stopped responding to immunotherapy or who haven't had treatment yet.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07646171Recruiting
Everolimus After Alpelisib for Advanced Breast Cancer
This trial tests a drug called everolimus in women with hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer who have already tried alpelisib (a PI3K inhibitor) combined with hormone therapy. The goal is to see if this next treatment can help control cancer growth.

Kunming, YunnanAges 18–75 - NCT06229275Recruiting
Comparing self vs. doctor pap smear collection
This trial compares two ways of collecting a Pap smear: one where a doctor does it and one where you do it yourself. This can help make cervical cancer screening easier and more comfortable for women.
