Study of ASP3082 for advanced lung and pancreatic cancers with KRAS G12D mutation
This trial tests a new drug, ASP3082, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer or pancreatic cancer that has a specific gene change called KRAS G12D. The study will collect tumor and blood samples to understand how the cancer responds or becomes resistant to the treatment.
Villejuif, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06658912Recruiting
Weight loss program for breast cancer survivors
This study tests a weight loss program designed specifically for women who have finished breast cancer treatment. It aims to help improve overall health after cancer.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 21–90 - NCT07412041Recruiting
Exercise program for stage II-III lung cancer before surgery
This study tests a personalized exercise program for people with stage II or III non-small cell lung cancer who are about to start cancer treatment before surgery. The goal is to see if exercise can help prepare your body for treatment and recovery.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07277413RecruitingPhase 1
Study of IDE892 for advanced solid tumors with MTAP deletion
This study tests a new drug called IDE892, alone or in combination, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic change (MTAP deletion). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and whether it can shrink tumors.
Santa Rosa, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05826743Recruiting
Check a new alternative to ileostomy after bowel surgery
This trial tests whether a device called COLO-BT can be a safer, effective alternative to an ileostomy (a temporary or longer-term opening from the intestine to the skin). It’s for certain adults having a bowel connection low in the pelvis, where leak risk matters.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 19–80 - NCT06469606Recruiting
Mammogram texture study for women having mastectomy
This study looks at mammogram images of women who are scheduled to have one or both breasts removed (mastectomy). Researchers want to learn about patterns in breast tissue to improve future breast cancer screening.
TampereAges 18 years+ - NCT07673367RecruitingPhase 2
Nemtabrutinib with CAR T for relapsed mantle cell lymphoma
This trial tests adding a targeted pill (nemtabrutinib) to standard CAR T-cell therapy for people with mantle cell lymphoma that has come back or not responded to treatment. The goal is to see if this combination works better than CAR T alone.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06473961RecruitingPhase 1
GC101 cell therapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer
This trial tests an experimental cell therapy (GC101) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. It uses your own tumor-fighting immune cells, called TILs, grown in a lab and given back to you. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors or slow the disease.
ShanghaiAges 18–70 - NCT06106477Recruiting
Intermittent fasting for women with early breast cancer
This trial studies whether a 14-hour night fast and 10-hour eating window can improve inflammation markers and quality of life in women with HR+/HER2- early breast cancer. You would start the fasting routine within three months of beginning hormone therapy.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT05796375RecruitingPhase 2
Urine testing instead of repeat bladder scope checks
This Phase 2 study tests whether urine tests can help monitor “non-muscle-invasive” bladder cancer without doing as many invasive bladder scopes (cystoscopies). If you qualify, you may be able to replace some scope visits with urine sample testing while still keeping close watch for cancer coming back.
West Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT07594106RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New immunotherapy for advanced prostate or kidney cancer
This trial tests new experimental drugs (REGN15505 and REGN4336) designed to target and attack cancer cells in advanced prostate cancer or kidney cancer. These drugs work by boosting your immune system to recognize and destroy cancer, and may be combined with other approved immunotherapy drugs.
