Fasting and Breast Cancer Treatment Study
This study looks at whether periods of fasting (eating for shorter time windows) might help improve how well a breast cancer medication called capivasertib works. You'll wear a glucose monitor, track your food, and follow fasting schedules while continuing your regular cancer treatment.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07238894Recruiting
Freezing and heating breast cancer without surgery
This study tests a combination of freezing and heating (cryoablation and thermal ablation) to treat breast cancer in patients who cannot have surgery. It may help shrink or control tumors while avoiding general anesthesia.
BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT07498725RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of LRK-4189 for solid tumors that have spread or can't be removed
This trial tests a new drug called LRK-4189, alone or with other treatments, for people with advanced solid tumors that have worsened despite prior therapy. The goal is to see if it is safe, tolerable, and helpful against the cancer.
NiceAges 18 years+ - NCT06870760Recruiting
Early blood cancer detection in Charlotte firefighters
This study looks at firefighters to find early signs of blood cancers before they become serious. It aims to learn how to catch these cancers earlier, so they can be treated sooner.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 40–49 - NCT07302347RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of pembrolizumab for different cancers in Japan
This trial tests a drug called pembrolizumab (Keytruda) to see if it helps people with several types of cancer, including relapsed or refractory lymphoma, melanoma, MSI-high or TMB-high solid tumors, and Merkel cell carcinoma. The goal is to understand if this immunotherapy can shrink or control the cancer.
Nagoya, Aichi-kenAges 6 months+ - NCT04937283Recruiting
Segmentectomy vs lobectomy for small lung cancer
This trial compares two lung-surgery options for small lung adenocarcinoma (≤ 2 cm): removing a lung segment versus removing an entire lobe. It aims to see which operation controls the cancer while preserving lung function.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 20–79 - NCT04934293Recruiting
Virtual reality support during proton radiation for children
This trial tests whether virtual reality (VR) can be used safely and comfortably for children receiving proton radiation. It aims to improve the experience of treatment by using a VR helmet during radiotherapy sessions.
NiceAges 7–18 - NCT04934540Recruiting
Bladder tumor surgery approach registry study
This study is for adults who have a bladder tumor and are having a standard kind of surgery through the urethra. Researchers will collect information about this “en bloc resection” approach to better understand outcomes and care for people with bladder tumors.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT04934982Recruiting
Surgery trial for early-stage cervical cancer with lymph vessel invasion
This trial studies whether a specific type of surgery (done through the abdomen or with keyhole surgery) is the right treatment for certain early cervical cancers. It aims to see how well these surgeries work when cancer hasn’t spread to lymph nodes.
