Testing a points score to predict 30-day survival
This study checks whether a prediction “points score” can estimate the chance of being alive 30 days after a person is referred for comfort-focused radiation therapy. It may help doctors choose the most helpful next steps and better plan follow-up care.
Avon, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT05102747Recruiting
Surgery-like brain radiation for up to 5 metastases
This trial compares two ways of giving focused radiation to the brain for people with a limited number of brain metastases. It aims to see which schedule works best (and is likely best for costs and quality of life).
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT05101382Recruiting
Study of colorectal cancer records to improve future research
This retrospective study uses existing colorectal cancer imaging and/or preserved tissue samples to support more precise (personalized) research. It may help researchers better understand colorectal cancer over time, but it does not involve new treatment.
Genova, GEAges 18 years+ - NCT05101551RecruitingPhase 1
Talazoparib with chemotherapy for relapsed childhood AML
This Phase 1 study tests whether talazoparib combined with chemotherapy is safe and potentially effective for children and young adults whose leukemia has come back or did not respond. It focuses on finding the best way to give the treatment and watching for side effects.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges Up to 21 years - NCT05102240Recruiting
Uses your cervix cancer treatment records to personalize therapy
This study builds computer models using past cervix cancer treatment data, including chemotherapy and radiation, plus MRI/CT images. It aims to help doctors choose more individualized treatment, based on what similar patients experienced and what their scans showed.
Navi Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 18–90 - NCT05102110Recruiting
Check rectal mucus in people with throat or lung cancers
This study looks at a substance called rectal mucus during an exam to learn about changes in people with cancers of the throat/airways (aero-digestive tract). It’s a feasibility study, meaning it mainly tests whether this approach is safe and practical.
ExeterAges 18–99 - NCT05103683RecruitingPhase 1
First-time test of TORL-1-23 for advanced solid tumors
This early study tests a new drug (TORL-1-23) in people with advanced solid cancers. It aims to find the safest dose and see how the tumor responds.
Fullerton, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05104983RecruitingPhase 2
Sirolimus to prevent first seizures in babies with TSC
This Phase 2 study tests whether sirolimus (a targeted medicine) can stop or slow the start of seizures in very young babies diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). If seizures are prevented early, it may also help protect early brain development.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1 day–6 months - NCT05104515RecruitingPhase 1
First cancer vaccine test for advanced lung, ovarian, or prostate cancer
This Phase 1 study tests OVM-200, a new cancer vaccine, to see how it is tolerated and how it affects the immune system in people with advanced NSCLC, ovarian cancer, or prostate cancer. You may be eligible if your cancer has already had approved treatment(s) and no further standard options are planned within the first two months.
London, LondonAges 18–75 - NCT05104788RecruitingPhase 2
Icotinib plus chemotherapy before surgery for EGFR lung cancer
This trial studies how well a targeted medicine (icotinib) combined with chemotherapy works before surgery for certain EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma. The goal is to shrink or control the tumor and make surgery more effective.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT05103969Recruiting
Study of POLE and POLD1 mutated tumors
This study follows people whose tumors have certain genetic changes in POLE or POLD1. It aims to learn more about these specific tumor mutations and how patients with them may be managed.
ToulouseAges 18 years+ - NCT05104619Recruiting
Analyzing Tongue Cancer Tissue During Surgery
This study examines tongue cancer tissue samples removed during surgery using special imaging techniques. Researchers hope this analysis helps improve how doctors understand and treat tongue cancer in the future.
Amiens, PicardieAges 18 years+ - NCT05104736RecruitingPhase 2
PT-112 for thymus gland tumors after prior chemotherapy
This trial studies PT-112, a new treatment, in people with thymoma or thymic carcinoma that has grown despite at least one prior platinum chemotherapy treatment. It may help shrink tumors or slow disease progression, especially when surgery is not possible.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05106608Recruiting
Mobile plus light therapy for dry mouth after head and neck cancer
This study tests whether “photobiomodulation” light therapy, guided by a phone app, can improve chronic dry mouth (xerostomia) in people who finished radiation for head and neck cancer. It may help reduce bothersome mouth dryness and support better day-to-day comfort after treatment.
Granada, GranadaAges 18 years+ - NCT05105152RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cell therapy for kids with CD33 AML that came back
This Phase 1 study tests a type of lab-made immune cell therapy (CAR T cells) made from your T cells to treat AML that has relapsed or not responded, as long as the cancer shows a marker called CD33. The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and can help control AML after it returns or resists standard therapy.
