Low-sugar, high-fat diet to improve PET scans for LPA lung cancer
This study tests whether a 7-day low-sugar, high-fat diet before a PET/CT scan can improve detection of a specific type of lung cancer called lepidic-predominant adenocarcinoma (LPA). If you have a suspicious lung nodule or biopsy-confirmed LPA, this diet may help the scan be more accurate.

Electrical muscle stimulation exercise for neuromuscular disease
This study tests whether whole-body electrical muscle stimulation (using small electrodes on the skin) can help adults with certain neuromuscular diseases exercise and improve muscle strength. It may be an option if you can stand for about 15 minutes at a time and have some muscle strength left.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07472803Recruiting

This study looks at how body composition (muscle and fat) changes over time in people with early-stage breast cancer. It aims to better understand the effects of cancer treatment on the body.
New Taipei City, Xindian DistAges 18 years+ - NCT07474090Recruiting
Personalized Exercise Program for Breast Cancer Survivors
This study tests whether a personalized exercise program during chemotherapy helps breast cancer survivors recover better and feel stronger. You'll use a smartphone app to do guided workouts at home while getting support from exercise coaches.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18–85 - NCT07478523RecruitingPhase 2
FAPI-PET scan for initial screening of pancreatic and bile duct cancers
This trial tests a new imaging method called FAPI-PET to see if it can better detect pancreatic and bile duct cancers at an early stage. It may help doctors decide on the best treatment plan for you.

Comparing two painkillers for nausea after brain surgery
This trial tests if a newer painkiller (oliceridine) causes less nausea after a specific type of brain surgery than the standard painkiller (sufentanil). If you are having CPA region surgery and will receive a patient-controlled pain pump, this study may help find a better option for managing pain with fewer side effects.
BeijingAges 18–65 - NCT07478185Recruiting
Prehab before pancreatic cancer surgery
This trial tests a pre-surgery exercise program (prehab) for people with pancreatic cancer who plan to have chemotherapy first. The goal is to see if getting stronger before surgery helps with recovery.
Worester, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07479472Recruiting
A study of digestive tract cancers in young adults
This study observes people aged 18-49 with a new gastrointestinal cancer (colorectal, stomach/esophageal, or pancreatic) to learn how their lifestyle habits and tumor characteristics affect their health. By participating, you help researchers understand why these cancers occur in younger adults.
Bologna, BOAges 18–49 - NCT07479979RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of selinexor with carfilzomib, isatuximab and dexamethasone for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma
This trial tests a combination of four drugs (selinexor, carfilzomib, isatuximab, and dexamethasone) in patients whose multiple myeloma has come back or stopped responding to prior treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink the cancer and help patients whose disease has high-risk features, like certain chromosome changes.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT07480005Recruiting
Staging laparoscopy for liver, pancreas, and bile duct cancers
This trial is checking how well a minimally invasive surgery (staging laparoscopy) detects the spread of liver, pancreas, or bile duct cancers before a bigger surgery. It may help doctors decide if a full operation is the right next step.
New Delhi, National Capital Territory of DelhiAges 18 years+ - NCT07478848RecruitingPhase 1
Radiation, Vancomycin, and CAR-T for B-cell lymphoma
This trial tests whether giving radiation and an oral antibiotic (vancomycin) before CAR-T therapy helps treat B-cell lymphoma more effectively. It is for people who are already scheduled to receive CAR-T treatment.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07479199Recruiting
Radiofrequency ablation and radiation for painful spine tumors
This trial tests a treatment that uses heat (radiofrequency ablation) and radiation to relieve pain from tumors in the spine. It may help if you have cancer that has spread to your upper or lower back and you have moderate to severe pain.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07477158Recruiting
Comparing two lung cancer surgeries for recovery and quality of life
This study compares two types of lung cancer surgery—removing just the tumor section (segmentectomy) or the whole lobe (lobectomy)—done through small cuts (minimally invasive). The goal is to see which approach leads to better daily living and recovery for early-stage lung cancer patients.
Madrid, MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT07478809Recruiting
Long-term study of RATIONALE-307 trial participants
This study looks back at people who took part in the RATIONALE-307 trial for a type of lung cancer called squamous non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to learn more about their health outcomes over time by only including those who were still alive when the original trial ended.
BeijingAges Any age - NCT06782334RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
AMT-116 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called AMT-116 in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to prior treatment. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18 years+ - NCT06684418Recruiting
AI to find hidden cancer spread in early lung cancer
This trial uses artificial intelligence to predict if early-stage lung cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes. It aims to help doctors make better treatment decisions for patients with stage 1 lung cancer.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT04608357Recruiting
Testing digital patient avatars to guide treatment for metastatic breast cancer
This study tests whether a computer “avatar” made from your health information can help choose the best systemic therapy (medications that treat cancer throughout the body) for metastatic breast cancer. You may be asked to provide a tissue sample (biopsy) so the team can build and guide the treatment plan.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06720727Recruiting
Radiation therapy for children with histone-altered midline glioma
This trial tests a type of radiation therapy called craniospinal irradiation for children and teenagers newly diagnosed with a specific brain tumor (diffuse midline glioma with H3 histone alteration). The goal is to see if this radiation can help control the tumor.
MumbaiAges 3–18 - NCT05601726RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a new drug for hard-to-treat AML or high-risk MDS
This early study tests a new medicine (ABD-3001) to see if it’s safe and tolerable, how the body handles it, and whether it shows early signs of helping people with relapsed or hard-to-treat AML or high-risk MDS. It may be an option if standard treatments have already failed and you can’t receive a stem cell transplant.
Marseille, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06096272Recruiting
Using augmented reality to help kids with cerebral palsy be more active
This trial tests if using an augmented reality game on a tablet can help children with cerebral palsy walk and move more each day. It could be an option if your child can walk on their own and doesn't have upcoming leg surgery.
