Becotatug vedotin plus immunotherapy for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs—becotatug vedotin (a targeted therapy) and a PD-1 inhibitor (an immunotherapy)—given before surgery to treat advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. The goal is to shrink tumors and improve surgical outcomes for patients with specific cancer markers.
Zhuhai, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07520578RecruitingPhase 3
Doctor Support to Complete Colon Screening After Positive Test
This study tests whether early information and encouragement from your primary care doctor helps you complete a follow-up colonoscopy after an abnormal screening test for colorectal cancer. The goal is to reduce delays and ensure people get the care they need quickly.
Tours, FranceAges 50–75 - NCT07524426Recruiting
Local Radiation Therapy for Bladder Cancer Not Suitable for Surgery
This trial tests whether focused radiation therapy directed at the bladder can help patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer who are not candidates for surgical removal or have chosen not to have surgery. The goal is to see if this approach can control the cancer and improve quality of life.
Umeå, Västerbotten CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07522905Recruiting
Virtual Movement Therapy for Kids With Leukemia in Remission
This study tests a fun virtual movement program where children who have finished leukemia treatment exercise together with a healthy friend online. The goal is to help improve their physical strength, coordination, and social skills after cancer treatment.
BratislavaAges 5–12 - NCT07518979RecruitingPhase 2
EGFR-targeted drug plus immunotherapy for advanced penile cancer
This trial tests a new combination treatment for advanced penile cancer that hasn't been treated before. It combines a targeted drug (becotatug vedotin) designed to attack cancer cells with an immunotherapy drug (pucotenlimab) that helps your immune system fight cancer.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT07523919Recruiting
How fitness and breathing affect colorectal cancer recovery
This study looks at how your physical fitness and lung function may affect how well you do after colorectal cancer treatment. Researchers will test your strength, movement, and breathing to understand what helps people recover better long-term.
Merkez, Gümüşhane ProvinceAges 18–80 - NCT07520214Enrolling by invitationEarly Phase 1
Cancer vaccine to prevent glioblastoma recurrence
This early-stage study tests a personalized cancer vaccine designed to prevent glioblastoma (a serious brain tumor) from coming back after surgery and standard treatment. The vaccine aims to train your immune system to recognize and attack any remaining cancer cells.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07519486RecruitingPhase 2
Nutrition support during cancer treatment before surgery
This trial tests whether intensive nutritional support helps patients with advanced esophageal cancer (a type of squamous cell carcinoma) respond better to treatment before surgery. The goal is to improve how well the cancer shrinks and prepare the body for a successful operation.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–80 - NCT07522879RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new drug combo for recurrent sinus cancer
This trial tests whether combining the targeted drug becotatug vedotin with chemo can shrink recurrent adenoid cystic sinus tumors that can't be fully removed by surgery. It's for people whose tumors have a specific protein called EGFR.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07516678Recruiting
Blood Tests to Track Neuroblastoma During Treatment
This study collects blood samples from neuroblastoma patients to test for tiny pieces of tumor DNA that can show how well treatment is working. By tracking these markers over time, doctors hope to better predict how patients will respond and improve care.
