Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07461948RecruitingPhase 3
Advanced imaging study for glioblastoma patients
This trial uses special MRI scans and a contrast agent to look at the immune environment of glioblastoma tumors. It may help doctors learn more about how the tumor responds to treatment.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07460440Recruiting
Screening for lung cancer with a blood test
This study is testing a new blood test that looks for signs of lung cancer in your blood platelets. If you have a lung nodule that needs further testing or have been diagnosed with lung cancer, this test might help doctors find cancer earlier.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 21 years+ - NCT07460180RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
PARP inhibitor with chemo and HIPEC for ovarian cancer
This trial tests if adding a drug called a PARP inhibitor (which helps block cancer cells from repairing themselves) to standard chemotherapy and heated chemotherapy during surgery (HIPEC) can work better together for ovarian cancer that has already been treated with initial chemo. It is for people with a specific type of advanced ovarian cancer who are planning surgery after chemo.
AmsterdamAges 18–100 - NCT07459309Recruiting
Combination treatment for liver cancer for people who can't have surgery
This trial tests a new combination treatment that uses heat (ablation) and other therapies to destroy liver tumors. It's for people who cannot have surgery or choose not to, and whose tumor is a specific size.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07460752RecruitingPhase 2
Alternative injection site for goserelin in breast cancer patients
This trial is testing whether giving the drug goserelin in a different spot on the body works just as well for suppressing ovarian function in premenopausal women with hormone receptor positive breast cancer. You may be a fit if you've already been on goserelin shots in your abdomen for at least 6 months.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–50 - NCT07458906Recruiting
DLL3-targeted PET/CT scan for neuroendocrine cancer
This trial uses a special PET/CT scan that targets a substance called DLL3, found on some cancer cells, to see if doctors can better detect or monitor neuroendocrine carcinoma. It may help you and your doctor get clearer information about your cancer.
Xiamen, FujianAges 18–80 - NCT07459101Recruiting
MR-guided radiation therapy for high-grade brain tumors
This study tests a new way to deliver radiation therapy for a type of aggressive brain tumor called glioblastoma or grade 4 astrocytoma. Patients get MRI scans during each treatment so the radiation beam can be adjusted precisely, aiming to improve outcomes.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07461493Recruiting
Cancer health disparities registry and biorepository
This study collects information and blood samples to understand why cancer affects different groups of people differently. By joining, you help researchers find better ways to prevent and treat cancer for everyone.
Flint, MichiganAges 35 years+ - NCT07462247Recruiting
Creating an Image Database for Early Upper GI Cancer
This study aims to build a library of images from patients with early cancers or precancerous spots in the upper digestive tract (esophagus and stomach). If you are scheduled for a standard endoscopy procedure (ESD or biopsy), researchers will use the pictures to help improve early detection.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07456605RecruitingPhase 1
Testing liposomal curcumin for multiple myeloma
This trial tests a special form of curcumin (the ingredient in turmeric) wrapped in tiny fat particles to see if it's safe and helpful for people with multiple myeloma that has come back or not responded to other treatments. It may offer an option when standard therapies are no longer effective.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07458425Recruiting
Lung cancer screening study using AI
This study tests how well an AI tool can predict lung cancer risk, based on your health information. It looks at how patients feel about this approach to screening, with the goal of making screening more personal and effective.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 50–80 - NCT07456852RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Can vasodilators help with chemo side effects in GI cancer?
This trial tests two drugs (isosorbide mononitrate and diltiazem) to see if they can prevent blood vessel damage caused by chemotherapy drugs like 5-FU or capecitabine in people with gastrointestinal cancers.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07454915RecruitingPhase 2
PVX4 vaccine for HPV16-related cervical dysplasia
