Relma-cel and Tislelizumab for CNS Lymphoma
This trial tests a combination of two drugs for people with large B-cell lymphoma that has spread to the brain or spinal cord and has come back or not responded well to earlier treatments. The first drug, Relma-cel, is a type of immunotherapy that helps your immune system attack cancer cells. The second drug, Tislelizumab, helps keep your immune system active against the cancer.

Testing STI-8591 for advanced acute myeloid leukemia
This early-stage study tests STI-8591 in people with advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or certain related blood cancers. It mainly aims to find a safe dose and see whether the treatment can work for patients whose disease did not respond to standard care or who cannot get it.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06877065Recruiting
MRI-Guided Fertility Preservation for Cervical Cancer
This study uses MRI scans to see if women with early-stage cervical cancer can safely keep their fertility. It follows patients before and after treatment to find which factors might lead to more aggressive disease.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT06876753Recruiting
Advanced liver cancer: TACE with immunotherapy and anti-angiogenesis
This trial is for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) that has spread outside the liver. It tests whether combining a TACE procedure with immunotherapy and anti-angiogenesis drugs can improve outcomes. You must not have had prior systemic therapy and must have received TACE in a specific time window around starting these drugs.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT06876831Recruiting
Lung cancer screening for current and recent smokers
This study aims to create a program to help people get screened for lung cancer while they are in the hospital. It is for people who are at higher risk due to their age and smoking history.
New York, New YorkAges 50–80 - NCT06635954Recruiting
Blood test to predict response to immunotherapy
This study is testing a blood test (Episwitch CiRT®) that looks at your DNA to see if it can predict whether you will respond to a type of immunotherapy called PD-(L)-1 checkpoint inhibitors. The goal is to see if this test is accurate across many different types of cancer.
Norwich, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT05475600Recruiting
Biofeedback and relaxation for ICU patients with blood cancers
This trial tests whether guided biofeedback and relaxation techniques can help people with blood cancers while they are in the ICU. It may improve comfort and stress during critical illness, compared with standard care.
MetzAges 18–75 - NCT06878534Recruiting
Thyroid cancer genetic study for patients with follicular origin
This study looks at the genes and mutations in thyroid cancers that start in follicular cells. It aims to understand how these changes relate to how aggressive the cancer is.
NaplesAges 18 years+ - NCT06473103Recruiting
Checking skin cancer margins with a new microscope
This trial is testing a new microscope technique that may help doctors see more clearly whether all cancer cells have been removed during standard skin cancer surgery. It could help make sure the surgery is successful the first time.
Victor, New YorkAges Any age - NCT06879379RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
KPD Consolidation After Stem Cell Transplant for Newly Diagnosed Myeloma
This trial tests a new way to treat multiple myeloma after a stem cell transplant. It uses a combination of drugs (KPD) to help keep the disease from coming back.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07293468RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Comparing two treatments for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests two different ways to treat liver cancer that can't be removed with surgery. It compares stereotactic body radiation therapy (targeted high-dose radiation) with selective internal radiation therapy (tiny radioactive beads delivered through a blood vessel), both combined with immunotherapy (medicines that help your immune system fight cancer).
Hong KongAges 18–80 - NCT07291141Recruiting
MRI vs. Ultrasound for Liver Cancer Detection in Cirrhosis
This study compares MRI and ultrasound to see which is better at finding liver cancer early in people with liver cirrhosis. It also looks at body composition and other factors that could lead to worsening liver function.
Linköping, Select A State Or ProvinceAges 18 years+ - NCT07290972Recruiting
Cervical cancer treatment compliance audit
This trial studies whether hospitals follow standard treatment guidelines for cervical cancer. It looks at how often patients receive the recommended radiation and chemotherapy.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges Any age - NCT06879730Recruiting
Studying surgery types for early-stage ovarian cancer
This study looks back at different surgical methods (open or minimally invasive) used for early-stage epithelial ovarian cancer. It aims to compare outcomes and help doctors choose the best approach.
Varese, VareseAges Any age - NCT07294677RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of capivasertib, venetoclax, and low-intensity chemo for ALL/LBL
This trial tests a combination of targeted drugs (capivasertib and venetoclax) with a gentle form of chemotherapy for adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) that has come back or has not responded to previous treatment. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective.

Immunotherapy plus chemo for advanced bile duct or gallbladder cancer
This trial tests combining immunotherapy (anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies) with standard chemotherapy (gemcitabine and cisplatin) for people with advanced bile duct or gallbladder cancer that can't be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this combination works better than chemo alone.
