Surufatinib plus immunotherapy for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial studies whether a combination of surufatinib and immunotherapy (camrelizumab, plus an “AS” medicine) can slow or shrink advanced pancreatic cancer that has spread. It is for people starting treatment for advanced disease for the first time and may help those who have measurable tumors and meet safety test limits.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT05068310Recruiting
Test a high-detail eye-like scan on skin tumors before biopsy
This study tests a high-resolution scan (called OCT) to better see skin tumors before they’re removed or biopsied. It may help doctors evaluate both non-pigmented and pigmented skin spots that look like possible skin cancer.
BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT06756152RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Preventing GVHD after transplant for blood cancers in children and young adults
This trial tests a combination of four medicines (cyclophosphamide, abatacept, vedolizumab, and ruxolitinib) to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after a stem cell transplant for children and young adults with certain blood cancers. The goal is to see if this approach reduces the risk of GVHD, a serious complication where donor cells attack the body.
MoscowAges 1 day–21 years - NCT05613478RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy plus targeted medicine with TACE around liver surgery
This Phase 3 trial tests whether combining camrelizumab and apatinib with TACE before/around liver cancer surgery can improve outcomes for people with certain stages of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It may help by strengthening the immune attack on cancer and by blocking blood supply to tumors.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT07526675Recruiting
Same-day prostate biopsy and heat treatment for cancer
This trial combines a biopsy (tissue sampling) with a heat-based ablation procedure in one visit to diagnose and treat early prostate cancer while also relieving severe urinary symptoms. It may help patients who need quick treatment and early discharge.
Banhā, Qalyubia GovernorateAges 1.5 years+ - NCT07528183RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy after chemo and radiation for recurrent nose cancer
This trial tests whether maintenance immunotherapy (PD-1 inhibitor) followed by delayed salvage radiation therapy can help keep your cancer under control after you have already responded to initial chemo-immunotherapy. It is for people with recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma that has come back in the nose or neck area, but has not spread to distant organs.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–70 - NCT07528781Recruiting
New 3D Ultrasound Method for Measuring Heart Valve Leakage
This study tests a new way to measure leakage in the mitral valve (a valve in your heart) using advanced 3D ultrasound. If you have moderate or severe mitral valve leakage, this research may help doctors better understand and treat the condition.
Badalona, BarcelonaAges 18–95 - NCT07530354Recruiting
Understanding Body Changes After Bile Duct Surgery in Children
This study follows children who have had bile duct (biliary tract) surgery to understand how their bodies change and adapt afterward. Researchers compare them with healthy children to learn what is normal and help improve care.
Wuhan, HubeiAges Up to 16 years - NCT07528547Recruiting
Imaging Tools for Kids Undergoing Radiation Therapy
This study tests new imaging technology (Hypersight and Ethos systems) to help doctors better see and target radiation therapy in children and teens with cancer. The goal is to improve how accurately radiation is delivered while reducing side effects.
Toronto, OntarioAges Up to 18 years - NCT07531693Recruiting
Improving Outcomes in Early Hormone-Positive Breast Cancer
This study follows women taking abemaciclib (a targeted cancer drug) for early-stage hormone-receptor-positive breast cancer to understand how the treatment affects their quality of life and health outcomes. The goal is to improve care for people in this situation.
Erlangen, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT07530536Recruiting
Brain Stimulation to Help Movement After Brain Tumor Surgery
This trial tests whether repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS)—a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate the brain—can help restore arm or leg movement in patients who have had weakness after brain tumor surgery. The goal is to see if this treatment is safe and effective for people recovering from surgery.
New York, New YorkAges 22–65 - NCT07529483RecruitingPhase 2
EUS-Guided Chemoablation for Pancreatic Cysts
This trial tests a new procedure using an ultrasound camera passed through your mouth to inject medicine directly into pancreatic cysts. It may help shrink cysts in people who cannot have surgery.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07528209RecruitingPhase 3
Chemotherapy with or without immunotherapy for advanced rectal cancer
This study tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (pucotenlimab) to standard chemotherapy (CAPOX) before surgery helps treat locally advanced rectal cancer better. The goal is to shrink tumors and improve survival while preserving bowel function when possible.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07531836Recruiting
Prehabilitation for older adults having breast cancer surgery
This trial tests a program of exercise and support before breast cancer surgery to help older patients recover better. It aims to improve strength and overall health so you can get back to your daily life sooner after the operation.
Pamplona, NavarreAges 65 years+ - NCT07529145Recruiting
Heart and Lung Fitness Testing During Lung Cancer Treatment
This study measures how well your heart and lungs work before and during lung cancer treatment using an exercise test. The goal is to understand how cancer treatment affects your physical fitness and help doctors better monitor your health.
Bialystok, Podlaskie VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT07526311Recruiting
Reducing blood loss during fibroid removal surgery
This trial compares two surgical techniques to reduce bleeding during surgery to remove fibroids (benign tumors) from the uterus. The goal is to find the safest, least-bloody approach for women who need this procedure.
Cairo, Al-ManialAges 25–48 - NCT07532902RecruitingPhase 1
BMS-986504 with standard treatment for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called BMS-986504 alongside standard treatments for certain advanced cancers (mesothelioma, stomach/esophageal cancer, or bladder cancer). The drug targets a specific genetic change (MTAP deletion) that may make cancer cells more vulnerable to treatment. Joining could help you access a new therapy, but it may not be suitable for everyone.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07532538Recruiting
Machine learning tool to predict head and neck cancer risk
This study tests a computer program designed to help doctors predict which head and neck lesions (abnormal tissue growths) might be cancerous. Researchers will use your medical information and throat imaging to teach the program, which could help catch cancer earlier.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–100 - NCT07528716RecruitingPhase 3
AI-guided treatment for HER2-positive breast cancer
