Testing a new drug for HER2-positive cancers after other treatments stop working
This trial tests a new drug, CAN016, for people with advanced solid tumors that have HER2 expression or a HER2 gene change. You may qualify if your cancer has gotten worse after trying other HER2-targeted treatments.

Dalpiciclib plus letrozole for advanced HR+ HER2- breast cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs (dalpiciclib and letrozole) as a first treatment for advanced breast cancer that is hormone receptor positive and HER2 negative. It aims to find the best dose to slow or stop cancer growth.
Dalian, LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT06183762Recruiting
Real-world study of treatments for MET-mutation lung cancer
This study looks at how different treatments work for people with advanced lung cancer that has a MET mutation. It aims to understand real-world treatment patterns and outcomes to help guide future care.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT06188676RecruitingPhase 3
Nivolumab with chemotherapy for newly diagnosed PMBL
This trial tests a fixed low dose of nivolumab combined with standard chemo-immunotherapy for people newly diagnosed with primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective.
MoscowAges 18–70 - NCT06175208Enrolling by invitation
Online tapping or mindfulness to ease fear of cancer return
This study tests two online programs—Emotional Freedom Techniques (tapping) and mindfulness meditation—to help cancer survivors reduce fear of their cancer coming back. You may join if you finished cancer treatment within the last 5 years and have significant worry about recurrence.
Brasschaat, AntwerpAges 18 years+ - NCT07480005Recruiting
Staging laparoscopy for liver, pancreas, and bile duct cancers
This trial is checking how well a minimally invasive surgery (staging laparoscopy) detects the spread of liver, pancreas, or bile duct cancers before a bigger surgery. It may help doctors decide if a full operation is the right next step.
New Delhi, National Capital Territory of DelhiAges 18 years+ - NCT06181032RecruitingPhase 1
Immunotherapy and chemo combo before surgery for bile duct cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy (adebrelimab), a targeted therapy (apatinib), and two chemotherapy drugs (gemcitabine and cisplatin) given before surgery for biliary tract cancers that are removable but at high risk of coming back. The goal is to see if this approach helps shrink the tumor and improve outcomes after surgery.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT06943677RecruitingPhase 1
Testing TQB3019 for advanced blood cancers
This trial tests an experimental oral capsule called TQB3019 for people with advanced blood cancers that have come back or not improved with other treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and to find the right dose.
