Chidamide and linperlisib for relapsed follicular lymphoma
This trial tests a combination of two oral drugs, chidamide and linperlisib, for people with follicular lymphoma that has not responded to or come back after at least two prior treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink the lymphoma and stop it from growing.
Xiamen, FujianAges 18 years+ - NCT02923011RecruitingPhase 3
MR-guided ultrasound vs radiofrequency heat for osteoid osteoma pain
This trial compares two non-surgical treatments that heat a small bone tumor to stop pain: MR-guided focused ultrasound and radiofrequency heat. It aims to find which option works better and has fewer problems for people whose osteoid osteoma pain is not well controlled.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 8 years+ - NCT03548428RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted radiation for a small number of sarcoma metastases
This Phase 2 trial tests a highly focused radiation treatment to shrink sarcoma that has spread to a limited number of spots in the body. It may help control disease while limiting radiation to healthier tissue.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT05603884RecruitingPhase 2
New treatment plan for older adults with newly diagnosed AML
This trial studies a two-part chemotherapy plan for older adults newly diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who can’t take the usual standard induction treatment. It aims to improve how well treatment works while taking into account age and other health conditions.
Xiamen, FujianAges 60 years+ - NCT06151080RecruitingPhase 2
Lenalidomide plus G-CHOP for new DLBCL with follicular lymphoma
This study tests combining the drug lenalidomide with a standard chemotherapy regimen (G-CHOP) for people newly diagnosed with a specific type of lymphoma that has both aggressive and slow-growing parts. The goal is to see if this combination works better than standard treatment alone.
Xiamen, FujianAges 18–70 - NCT06289374Recruiting
Long-term breath & blood study after stomach or esophagus cancer surgery
This study is for people who have had surgery for stomach or esophagus adenocarcinoma and are already part of a larger study called BIORESOURCE 1. It looks at certain substances in your breath and blood over time to learn more about recovery.
LondonAges 18–90 - NCT06151106RecruitingPhase 2
Study of Chidamide and Duvalisib for Relapsed or Resistant T-Cell Lymphoma
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs, Chidamide and Duvalisib, for people with peripheral T-cell lymphoma or NK/T-cell lymphoma that has come back or not responded to previous treatment. The goal is to see if this drug combination can help shrink or control the lymphoma.
Xiamen, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT06158399RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for a specific type of lymphoma
This trial tests a new drug combination (azacitidine plus standard chemotherapy) for people with a certain genetic subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that has a mutation in the TP53 gene. It may offer a more targeted treatment option.
Xiamen, FujianAges 18–70 - NCT06242119Recruiting
Testing a new PET scanner prototype
This study is testing a new type of PET scanner (called J-PET) to see if it works as well as current PET/CT machines. If you are already scheduled for a whole-body PET/CT scan, participating would mean your scan is done with this experimental scanner instead.
KrakowAges 18 years+ - NCT06225843RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new drug combo before liver surgery for colorectal cancer
This trial is for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. It tests whether adding a new drug (sotevtamab) to standard chemotherapy (FOLFOX) before surgery can help shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
