Jakarta, West JakartaAges 30–69 - NCT07402109Recruiting
Precise guided radiation therapy for kidney cancer
This trial tests a new type of precise radiation therapy for kidney cancer. It uses a special scanner to guide the treatment without needing a marker, which may make the procedure quicker and more comfortable.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07402525Recruiting
Radiation after surgery for early-stage tongue cancer with risk factors
This trial tests whether adding radiation therapy after surgery helps prevent the return of early-stage tongue cancer in patients who have certain risk factors, such as nerve invasion or poorly differentiated cells. It is for people whose cancer was limited to the front two-thirds of the tongue and was completely removed.
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 18–70 - NCT07398365Recruiting
Medical study of psychiatry inpatients
This study looks at the medical and mental health patterns of adults admitted to general adult psychiatry wards. It aims to better understand their health needs.
Livingston, West LothianAges 18–65 - NCT07405645Recruiting
Focused Ultrasound for Cancer Pain in the Head or Neck
This trial tests a non-invasive focused ultrasound treatment aimed at a specific brain area to reduce severe cancer-related pain in the head, neck, or upper chest. It may help if your pain hasn't responded to standard medications.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT07406022Recruiting
Light-based imaging to help diagnose skin cancer
This study uses special cameras and light to look at skin growths and help doctors diagnose skin cancer. It may be a way to better understand your skin without taking a sample.
MetzAges 18 years+ - NCT07404605Recruiting
Electrochemotherapy for skin melanoma study
This study tests if electrochemotherapy can change the environment around melanoma tumors. It may help patients with melanoma that has spread to the skin or just under the skin.
LjubljanaAges 18 years+ - NCT07398079Recruiting
Wellness program for breast and gynecological cancer survivors
This study explores whether a structured wellness program can help breast and gynecological cancer survivors feel better after their main treatments. It looks at how an integrative approach, which may include complementary therapies, supports your recovery and quality of life.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT07399821RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Imaging study of anti-GD2-800CW in neuroblastoma
This trial tests a special dye (anti-GD2-800CW) that lights up neuroblastoma cells during surgery, helping surgeons see and remove more of the tumor. It is for children with neuroblastoma who are scheduled to have surgery.
UtrechtAges 1–18 - NCT07401875RecruitingPhase 1
A study of HC-7366 with immunotherapy for advanced kidney cancer
This study tests an experimental drug (HC-7366) combined with standard immunotherapy for advanced kidney cancer. It aims to see if this combo can help control the cancer better, and checks safety and effectiveness.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07400263Recruiting
Testing a new imaging agent for epithelial tumors
This trial evaluates a new radioactive tracer that targets a protein called EpCAM found on many solid tumors. It aims to improve PET/CT scans for diagnosing and staging cancer. Participants will receive the tracer before their scheduled biopsy or surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07401264Recruiting
Colorectal Polyp Image Collection Study
This trial collects video and images of colorectal polyps during a standard colonoscopy. It helps doctors learn more about polyps 10 mm or larger, which may be more likely to be cancerous.
