A PET scan to find hidden spread in slow-growing breast cancer
This trial is testing a special PET scan (18F-FES PET/CT) to see if it can find distant cancer spread in women with a slow-growing, estrogen receptor-positive, stage III breast cancer. The goal is to find out whether this imaging test can detect hidden metastases better than standard scans.

Comparing two drug combos for first-line metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether a combination of chemotherapy drugs (NALIRIFOX) plus targeted therapy works better than another standard combination (FOLFOX) plus targeted therapy for people with metastatic colorectal cancer who haven't had treatment yet. It aims to find a more effective first treatment option.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07309497Recruiting
Geriatric Assessment for Older Adults Before CAR-T or Bispecific Therapy
This trial studies how a simple geriatric assessment (a check-up for older adults) can help predict side effects and outcomes in patients aged 65+ who are about to receive CAR-T cell therapy or bispecific antibody treatment.
BernAges 65 years+ - NCT07306741Recruiting
Cognitive and fusion prostate biopsy study
This trial compares two ways to guide a prostate biopsy for men with abnormal MRI findings. It may help if you have never had a prostate biopsy and have certain PSA levels.
Shibīn al KawmAges Any age - NCT07315542Recruiting
Cartilage tumor diagnosis and treatment study
This study is looking at different types of cartilage tumors to find better ways to diagnose and treat them. If you have a confirmed cartilage tumor, you may be able to join and help researchers learn more about your condition.
Brno, South MoravianAges Any age - NCT07313332Recruiting
Strength and interval training before cancer treatment
This study tests whether a mix of resistance (strength) training and high-intensity interval training (short bursts of hard exercise) can help people get stronger and healthier before starting cancer treatment. It takes place at Royal Derby Hospital and requires a commitment to attend about 8 sessions.
Derby, DerbyshireAges 18 years+ - NCT07309276RecruitingPhase 2
Study of JS212 for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called JS212 combined with other treatments for people with advanced or spreading lung cancer. It aims to see if the combination can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07307664Recruiting
Increasing genetic testing for cancer patients
This trial aims to increase the use of genetic testing (germline testing) among cancer patients by working with healthcare providers like oncologists and nurses. If you are an oncology care team member treating adults with breast, pancreatic, or colorectal cancer, this study may be for you.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT07314632Recruiting
Laser treatment study for pilonidal cysts
This study looks at how well laser surgery works for pilonidal cysts, including cysts that came back after other treatments. It aims to help doctors understand if laser treatment is a good option.
CornebarrieuAges 18 years+ - NCT07308951Recruiting
Electrical acupoint stimulation for chronic cancer pain relief
This trial tests if a small, patient-controlled device that sends mild electrical pulses to acupoints (like acupuncture without needles) can improve quality of life for people with ongoing cancer pain. It may offer a drug-free way to manage pain at home.
Zhejiang, HangzhouAges 18–80 - NCT07314801Enrolling by invitation
Financial impact of cancer in young adults
This study looks at how cancer treatment affects your finances and your recovery, especially for young adults. It involves a phone interview and some questionnaires to understand your experience.
Göttingen, Lower SaxonyAges 18–50 - NCT07312786Recruiting
Virtual app for breast and colorectal cancer survivors
This study tests if a virtual app can help people who have finished treatment for breast or colorectal cancer feel supported and stay healthy. It looks at whether using the app is easy and helpful for cancer survivors.
Saint John, New BrunswickAges 18 years+ - NCT07309991Recruiting
Oxygen Levels After Esophageal Cancer Surgery and Healing Complications
This study looks at whether low oxygen levels in the blood after esophageal cancer surgery increases the risk of problems with how the surgery heals. By understanding this connection, doctors may be able to better prevent or treat healing complications.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT07306962Recruiting
Virtual surgery study for jaw tumor removal
This trial tests a computer method to plan safe removal of a non-cancerous jaw tumor called ameloblastoma. It may help surgeons see the exact area to remove to reduce the chance of the tumor coming back.
Alexandria, Alexandria GovernorateAges Any age - NCT07307404Recruiting
Nutrition app for cancer patients
This trial tests a web-based app to help manage nutrition in cancer patients. It is for those with moderate nutrition problems, as measured by a special score, who can use a smartphone app.

Chemo, immunotherapy and targeted radiation before surgery for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new approach for people with certain advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread to lymph nodes in the chest but might still be removed. It combines a short course of high-precision radiation, immunotherapy (sintilimab), and standard chemotherapy before surgery to see if it can improve outcomes.
