ML261 CAR T therapy for advanced small cell lung cancer and related neuroendocrine cancers
This trial tests a new treatment called ML261, which uses your own immune cells (T cells) that have been modified to target DLL3, a protein found on certain cancer cells. It is for people with advanced small cell lung cancer or other neuroendocrine cancers that have not responded to standard treatments.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07480941RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-NK cell therapy for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a new treatment using engineered immune cells (CAR-NK cells) that target two markers found on glioblastoma tumors. The treatment is given directly into the brain to fight tumors that have come back after standard therapy.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07480954RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR-NK cell therapy for recurrent ovarian cancer
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (CAR-NK cells) that targets two proteins often found on ovarian cancer cells. It is for people whose cancer has come back after at least two prior treatments.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07488585Recruiting
New ultrasound probe for thyroid imaging
This trial tests a new ultrasound probe designed to take better images of thyroid nodules. It may help improve the monitoring of nodules over time.
Dartmouth, Nova ScotiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07483567RecruitingPhase 2
Combination treatment before and after stomach cancer surgery
This trial tests a combination of experimental drugs (IBI343, Sintilimab, and chemotherapy) before and after surgery for a specific type of stomach cancer that is CLDN18.2 positive. The goal is to see if this treatment shrinks the tumor and helps prevent the cancer from coming back.
