Melanoma blood marker study
This study looks at small molecules in your blood (called the metabolome) using special tests. Researchers want to see if these molecules change depending on how your melanoma progresses, which may help improve future care.
Dresden, SaxonyAges 18 years+ - NCT06767254Recruiting
Using AI to predict early return of multiple myeloma
This study uses artificial intelligence to analyze how multiple myeloma may lead to early relapse. It may help doctors better predict and manage the disease.

A blood test study for early ovarian cancer detection
This study is testing a new blood test (called the EARLY panel) to see how well it can detect ovarian cancer in postmenopausal women aged 50–74. It aims to find out if the test is accurate and practical for routine screening.
Brisbane, QueenslandAges 50–74 - NCT07493421Recruiting
Surgery and heated chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer with spread to the abdomen
This trial tests if combining surgery to remove the tumor with a special heated chemotherapy bath for the abdomen (HIPEC) is safe and possible for people whose pancreatic cancer has spread only to the lining of the abdomen.
Shanghai, shangaiShanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT00682032Recruiting
Beta-glucan for non-small cell lung cancer
This study tests whether beta-glucan, a supplement taken by mouth, can help people with non-small cell lung cancer. You may be able to join if you’re newly diagnosed (no recent treatment) and can safely take pills.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT05528939Recruiting
Training attention skills for children after cancer
This trial tests a computer-based “attention-control training” program to see if it’s doable and helpful for children who finished treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia or a brain tumor. It also looks at how acceptable the program is for both kids and caregivers.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 8–16 - NCT06422403RecruitingPhase 2
Study on giving immunotherapy less often for advanced cancer
This trial tests whether giving certain immunotherapy drugs less often than usual is safe and still works well for people with advanced stomach, liver, or lung cancer. It might mean fewer hospital visits while still controlling the cancer.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - NCT06112639Recruiting
Dance-based rehab for chronic brain conditions
This trial tests a dance exercise program for people with multiple sclerosis or early memory loss. It aims to see if dancing can help physical and mental function safely at home.
BresciaAges 18–85 - NCT06171360Recruiting
Gut bacteria and CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment in breast cancer
This study looks at how gut bacteria affect response to a type of targeted therapy (CDK4/6 inhibitors) combined with hormone therapy in breast cancer that is hormone receptor-positive and HER2-negative. It may help find out why some people respond better to treatment and could lead to better personalized care.
BrusselsAges 18–100 - NCT06664021RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab and S-1 for recurrent high-risk bile duct cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (tislelizumab and S-1) for people whose bile duct cancer has come back after surgery and had high-risk features. The goal is to see if this treatment can help control the cancer.
Fuyang, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT06767579Recruiting
Comparing Delirium Risk After Liver Transplant: Inhaled vs. IV Anesthesia
This study compares how often confusion (delirium) happens after liver transplant when using two different anesthesia medicines: sevoflurane (inhaled gas) versus propofol (IV medicine). It helps doctors find out which anesthesia might be safer for your brain.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06492005RecruitingPhase 2
Study of 9MW2821 for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a new drug, 9MW2821 (sometimes with a PD-1 inhibitor), for people with advanced triple-negative breast cancer. It may be an option if you've already tried standard treatments or haven't started any yet.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06769971RecruitingPhase 2
Ivonescimab and cadonilimab plus chemo for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of two experimental immunotherapy drugs (ivonescimab and cadonilimab) with standard chemotherapy for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer who have not had prior treatment. The goal is to see if this combination works better than chemo alone.
