Comparing two numbing techniques for pain relief after mastectomy
This trial tests two different numbing injections to see which one works better for pain after breast cancer surgery. If you are having a mastectomy, you may be able to join and help find a better way to manage pain.
Jakarta, DKI JakartaAges 18–60 - NCT07739121Recruiting
Testing AI vs. tumor boards for cancer treatment advice
This trial compares treatment recommendations from large language models (AI) against those from experienced tumor boards for five common cancer types. The goal is to see if AI can help doctors make better decisions.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT07227350RecruitingPhase 2
L19IL2 and L19TNF for advanced basal cell carcinoma
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, L19IL2 and L19TNF, injected directly into advanced basal cell carcinoma tumors that cannot be treated with surgery or radiation. The goal is to see if these drugs can shrink the tumors.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07476781Recruiting
Liquid biopsy study for solid tumours and brain tumours
This study collects samples of spinal fluid and blood from people with solid tumours that have spread to the brain or spine, or who have primary brain tumours. The goal is see if these samples can help doctors detect and monitor these cancers more easily.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07209917Recruiting
Cervical cancer prevention for women with HIV and HPV
This trial tests a new way to prevent cervical cancer in women with both HIV and HPV. It focuses on women in India who are already on stable HIV treatment and have a normal cervical exam.
Bangalore, KarnatakaAges 25–50 - NCT07629817RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery vs. Chemoradiation for Esophageal Cancer
This trial compares surgery versus a strong combination of chemotherapy and radiation for people with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma that has been treated first with immunotherapy. It aims to find which approach leads to better outcomes after the initial immunotherapy and chemotherapy.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–75 - NCT06287944RecruitingPhase 1
Targeted radiation and chemo before donor stem cell transplant
This trial tests a new approach: giving a targeted radioactive antibody (attached to a drug that finds CD38 on cancer cells) along with low-dose chemotherapy and targeted radiation to the bone marrow before a donor stem cell transplant. The goal is to prepare the body for the transplant while killing remaining cancer cells more precisely.
