Mobile, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07705035RecruitingPhase 1
DBC-664 for adults with advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called DBC-664 for people with solid tumors that have come back or spread and cannot be removed by surgery. It may be an option if you have tried other treatments or if standard options are limited.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT07623369RecruitingPhase 1
First-in-Human Study of HH160 for Advanced Solid Tumors
This is an early-stage trial testing a new drug called HH160 in patients with advanced cancer (solid tumors). Researchers want to find the right dose and learn how well it works and what side effects it causes.
Waratah, New South WalesAges 18–75 - NCT07687849Recruiting
Workplace diet study for Avon firefighters
This study tests a workplace diet program designed for UK firefighters. It aims to see if the program can improve your health and well-being while on the job.
BristolAges 18 years+ - NCT07195695RecruitingPhase 3
Zongertinib after surgery for HER2-mutated lung cancer
This trial tests a new pill, zongertinib, against standard of care for people with early-stage (II–IIIB) non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific HER2 mutation in the tyrosine kinase domain. The goal is to see if zongertinib can prevent the cancer from coming back after complete surgical removal.
Fresno, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06863272RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of ifinatamab deruxtecan for advanced prostate cancer
