Study of AML epigenetic markers in older adults
This trial looks at certain chemical changes in blood cells of two groups of people aged 60 or older: those having heart surgery (control group) and those with a type of blood cancer called acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who will be treated with a drug called azacitidine. The goal is to find markers that could help personalize treatment for AML in seniors.
Mulhouse, AlsaceAges 60 years+ - NCT07252726RecruitingPhase 4
Morning vs. evening dosing for metastatic breast or prostate cancer
This trial tests whether taking your hormone therapy and targeted pills in the morning or evening affects how well they work and how you feel. It is for people with metastatic breast or prostate cancer starting a specific hormone-based treatment combination.
Kitchener, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07250386RecruitingPhase 1
CEA-targeted CAR-T therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new CAR-T cell therapy that targets CEA, a protein found on certain cancer cells. It's for people with advanced solid tumors like lung or breast cancer who have not responded to other treatments.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07253298Enrolling by invitation
Kegel exercises with biofeedback for bowel recovery after rectal cancer surgery
This trial studies whether doing Kegel exercises with biofeedback (a technique that helps you see how your muscles are working) can improve bowel function, reduce emotional distress, and boost quality of life after rectal cancer surgery.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07258108RecruitingPhase 2
Sac-TMT and KL-A167 for HR+/HER2- Breast Cancer
This trial is testing a combination of two drugs, Sac-TMT and KL-A167, in people with a certain type of advanced breast cancer (HR+/HER2-) that is PD-L1 positive. It's for those whose cancer has gotten worse after treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor and hormone therapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07252076Recruiting
MRI for detecting hidden liver metastases in pancreatic cancer
This trial uses an MRI scan to look for small liver metastases that may not be visible on a CT scan in people newly diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. It aims to improve the accuracy of staging before treatment begins.
Alessandria, PiedmontAges 18 years+ - NCT07253402Recruiting
Microbiota-guided radiation therapy for head and neck cancer
This trial is testing a new way to use radiation therapy for head and neck cancer by also looking at the bacteria in your mouth and gut. The goal is to see if adjusting the treatment based on your bacteria can improve outcomes and reduce side effects.
Milan, MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT07258056Recruiting
Using PET/MRI to find prostate cancer after a normal MRI
