RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT06707610RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called ALK202 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The study aims to see if the drug is safe and to find the best dose.
Margate, FloridaAges 18–75 - NCT06730295RecruitingPhase 2
Lung cancer radiation trial shrinking target margins
This trial tests a newer, more precise way of giving radiation for lung cancer tumors that are near the center of the chest. The goal is to see if using a smaller treatment area can reduce side effects while still killing the cancer.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06864221Recruiting
How fat molecules in blood affect liver cancer radiotherapy
This study looks at whether certain fats in your blood can help predict how well radiotherapy works for liver cancer. If you are getting radiation for liver cancer, your blood samples may help doctors learn more about your treatment response.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06872853Recruiting
Study on rare chest, belly, and soft tissue tumors
This study looks at rare or complex tumors in the chest, abdomen, or soft tissues. It aims to learn more about these uncommon cancers and how to best treat them.
Bologna, BOAges 18 years+ - NCT04365036RecruitingPhase 3
Check if PD-1 plus chemo-radiation helps early nasal lymphoma
This trial studies whether adding toripalimab (an immune therapy that targets PD-1) to standard chemo-radiation works better for newly diagnosed early-stage nasal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma. It’s designed to see if the combined treatment can improve outcomes while staying safe.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT04996017RecruitingPhase 3
Atezolizumab after surgery for malignant pleural mesothelioma
This study tests whether atezolizumab given after surgery and chemotherapy can lower the risk of mesothelioma coming back compared with a placebo. It may help by boosting the immune system to control remaining microscopic cancer cells.
Meldola, ITAòYAges 18 years+ - NCT04314219RecruitingPhase 3
Preventing GVHD after leukemia stem cell transplant
This Phase 3 study tests whether giving post-transplant cyclophosphamide can better prevent a dangerous immune complication called GVHD compared with the usual standard medicines. You may be eligible if you are in remission from acute leukemia and planning a fully matched related-donor stem cell transplant.
RiyadhAges 14–65 - NCT04100174RecruitingPhase 2
HDR radiation boost for prostate cancer during standard treatment
This study tests adding a targeted “boost” of HDR (high-dose-rate) internal radiation to the prostate along with standard external beam radiation. It may help improve cancer control while keeping the treatment focused on the area seen on scans and biopsy.
Montreal, QuebecAges Any age - NCT06201078RecruitingPhase 2
Second radiation for prostate cancer that returns locally
This trial tests a second round of precise, high-dose radiation (stereotactic body radiotherapy) for men whose prostate cancer has come back only in the prostate after their first radiation treatment. It aims to control the recurrence with fewer side effects.
GliwiceAges 18–80 - NCT04701853Recruiting
Exercise training after permanent stoma surgery
This trial looks at a specific exercise program after planned surgery to create a permanent stoma (an opening for stool). The goal is to see whether the training helps people recover and function better after surgery.
GothenburgAges Any age - NCT05346757Recruiting
Test stool DNA changes to screen or find colorectal cancer
This study checks whether a stool test that looks for tiny genetic signals can help detect colorectal cancer (or find it again after prior findings). You may be asked to provide a stool sample around the time you get a colonoscopy.
BarcelonaAges 18–80 - NCT05793034Recruiting
Study factors that predict survival after aggressive meningioma surgery
This study looks at people who had surgery for more aggressive meningiomas (grade 2 or 3) and tries to learn what factors relate to survival. The results may help doctors better predict outcomes for future patients.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT05941234Recruiting
Studying stem cells and blood patterns in glioblastoma
This study analyzes tissue and health-related biological data from people with glioblastoma to learn what’s happening in the tumor. The results may help improve future ways to understand and treat glioblastoma using advanced computer analysis.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT06095154RecruitingPhase 3
Simplifying radiation planning for nasopharyngeal cancer
This study tests a simpler way to plan radiation for a type of throat cancer called nasopharyngeal carcinoma. It uses a standard method to outline the area needing treatment, which may make planning faster and more consistent.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–70 - NCT06260358Recruiting
Cervical cancer MRI report study
This study tests a new structured way of reporting MRI scans for cervical cancer patients. It may help doctors better understand and stage the disease.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT06324175Recruiting
Spatial radiogenomics study for ovarian cancer
This study looks at how medical images relate to genetic patterns in high-grade serous ovarian cancer. It may help find better ways to diagnose and treat this specific type of ovarian cancer.
RomaAges 18 years+ - NCT07308886RecruitingPhase 2
CYT107 for Kaposi sarcoma in HIV patients with low CD4
This trial tests an experimental drug (CYT107) that boosts the immune system to help fight Kaposi sarcoma in people with HIV who have a low CD4 count despite good HIV treatment. It aims to see if the drug can improve KS tumors and quality of life.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT07308990Recruiting
Comparing limited vs. full lymph node removal during prostate surgery
This trial compares two types of lymph node removal during prostate cancer surgery to see if removing fewer lymph nodes is just as effective. It is for men with prostate cancer that has not spread beyond the pelvis.

F182112 for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma
This trial tests a new drug, F182112, for people whose multiple myeloma came back or didn't respond to prior treatments that included lenalidomide and a proteasome inhibitor. It may help if your disease has active signs like high protein levels.
TianjinAges 18 years+ - NCT07311993RecruitingPhase 1
Study of CLR 125 for triple negative breast cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug called CLR 125 in people with triple negative breast cancer that has worsened after at least one prior treatment. It aims to see if the drug is safe and how it affects the cancer.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07310446Recruiting
Blood test study for colorectal cancer detection
This study is collecting blood samples to improve a test that looks for signs of colorectal cancer in the blood. It may help find cancer earlier or better understand how to detect it.

Study of IV Pivekimab Sunirine for Children with Relapsed AML
This study tests an experimental IV drug called pivekimab sunirine for children whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has returned or not responded to previous treatments. The drug targets a specific marker on leukemia cells (CD123) to try to kill them.
