This study looks at whether a specific pediatric bone implant is safe and works well for children who need it. By joining, you help researchers track outcomes over time and understand possible implant-related side effects.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges birth–25 years - NCT05363189Recruiting
Improving recovery after breast reconstruction with belly-tissue flap
This study looks at ways to help your recovery after breast reconstruction using tissue moved from your lower belly (a DIEP flap). You may be asked to complete a questionnaire during the recovery period.
GothenburgAges 18–100 - NCT05363111RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a targeted radioactive drug for relapsed myeloma
This Phase 1 study tests a targeted radioactive medicine made from daratumumab plus a radioactive payload, aiming to treat multiple myeloma that has come back or doesn’t respond to treatment. It’s designed mainly to check safety and how the treatment works in people who have had several prior therapies.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05363280RecruitingPhase 2
Second-treatment study for lung or kidney cancer after initial therapy
This Phase 2 study tests a new treatment for people with small cell lung cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, or kidney cancer after they have finished their first main treatment. It may help shrink tumors or control the cancer further.

Klagenfurt, CarinthiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05363657Recruiting
Registry study for kidney tumor treatment choices
This study is a registry that collects information on how people with localized kidney tumors are treated (either active treatment or watchful waiting). It may help doctors better understand which approaches work best for different patients.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05364879Recruiting
Exercise before ovarian cancer surgery
This trial tests whether supervised exercise (before surgery) can help people with advanced ovarian cancer get ready for treatment. It’s meant to improve readiness and safety during the time leading up to surgery.
Halifax, Nova ScotiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05364788Recruiting
Study of tumor tissue in appendiceal cancer after surgery
This study looks at stored tumor samples to better understand appendiceal cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen (peritoneal metastases). Your tumor tissue from past procedures may help researchers learn more about the cancer and how it behaves.
ManchesterAges 18 years+ - NCT05365581RecruitingPhase 1
Study drug for stomach and pancreatic cancers with lab-checked targets
This Phase 1 trial tests ASP2138 alone or with other cancer medicines in adults with stomach (including GEJ) or pancreatic cancer. You may be eligible if your tumor has a specific protein marker and your health tests and scan results meet safety requirements.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05365412Recruiting
Study of colon cancer in younger adults
This study looks at the clinic and lab features of colon cancer in people diagnosed at a young age. Your information from your diagnosis and treatment may help doctors understand how colon cancer differs by age.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 18 years+ - NCT05366179RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized CAR-T therapy for recurring brain tumor
This Phase 1 study tests a personalized immune-cell treatment (CAR-T) made from your own cells to attack a marker called B7-H3 on recurring glioblastoma. It may help shrink or control the tumor, but the main goal is to check safety and how the treatment works.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05366478RecruitingPhase 1
LM103 for advanced solid tumors using donated immune cells
This Phase 1 study tests LM103 to treat advanced cancers that are not responding to standard treatment. It also looks at whether enough tumor tissue can be collected for immune cell testing, and focuses on safety at first.
TianjinAges 18 years+ - NCT05366829RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab after liver tumor radiation to reduce cancer return
This Phase 2 trial tests tislelizumab (an immunotherapy medicine) given after liver-directed radiation to help prevent hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer) from coming back or spreading. It may help by boosting the immune system to better control remaining cancer.
New Brunswick, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05366816RecruitingPhase 2
Blood test–guided sunitinib or regorafenib for GIST
This study uses a blood test (ctDNA) to look for specific tumor DNA changes, then guides treatment with sunitinib or regorafenib in people with GIST that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see whether this ctDNA-guided approach improves outcomes compared with standard decision-making.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05366569Recruiting
CAR T-cell therapy for certain blood cancers after relapse
This trial studies a type of immune therapy (CAR T-cells) for people whose leukemia or lymphoma has come back or did not respond after at least two treatment attempts. It aims to improve outcomes in carefully selected patients who can safely receive the treatment.
BresciaAges 18–70 - NCT05366881Recruiting
Blood test study to spot early cancer signal and cancer leftovers
This observational study checks whether a blood test (a “cfDNA” test) can detect early signs of cancer or small amounts of cancer left after treatment. It may help doctors use a simple blood sample to improve cancer detection and follow-up.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 40 years+ - NCT05367206RecruitingPhase 3
Tested chemotherapy before chemoradiation for advanced cervical cancer
This trial compares two treatment plans for stage IIIC cervical cancer: giving chemotherapy first, then chemoradiation, versus going straight to chemoradiation. It may help doctors see which approach works better for shrinking the cancer before and during radiation.
Guangzhou, GuangdoneAges 18–70 - NCT05368090Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided ablation for primary aldosteronism
This trial studies whether a procedure called endoscopic ultrasound–guided radiofrequency ablation can treat primary aldosteronism (a hormone condition that can raise blood pressure and potassium issues). It may help shrink an overactive adrenal growth and reduce the need for surgery for some people.
BergenAges 18–80 - NCT05367700RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug HS-10382 for chronic myeloid leukemia after prior treatment
This early-phase study tests HS-10382 in adults with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) whose leukemia is resistant to or not tolerated of standard pills. It aims to see if the drug can control CML when earlier treatment hasn’t worked for you.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–74 - NCT05369429Recruiting
Stress and mood support program for adults with cancer
This trial tests a new online “wellbeing guide” to help manage stress and improve quality of life. It focuses on adults with cancer who also have higher-than-usual depressive symptoms.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05369546Recruiting
Imaging study for suspicious breast findings
This study looks at how detailed breast imaging can help diagnose breast cancer when a mammogram is suspicious. If your mammogram result was “highly suspicious” and you have not had a biopsy yet, the trial may be able to use your images to improve future diagnosis.
Tampa, FloridaAges 20–85 - NCT05370079Recruiting
Control group for people with specific serious illnesses
This trial includes a “control” group of people with certain diseases to compare outcomes against another group. If you qualify, you may receive the standard approach used in usual care rather than the experimental treatment.
BronAges 18 years+ - NCT05370144Recruiting
Pre-surgery chemotherapy and radiation for esophagus cancer
This study tests a new pre-surgery treatment plan that combines chemotherapy with focused, shorter-course radiation for esophagus or stomach-where-it-meets-the-esophagus (GEJ) adenocarcinoma. The goal is to shrink the tumor before surgery and improve treatment outcomes.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–80 - NCT05370430RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T therapy targeting BAFF-R for certain NHL
This Phase 1 study tests a new type of immune-cell therapy (CAR T cells) that targets BAFF-R to treat certain relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). It aims to see if the treatment is safe and can shrink lymphoma in people who have tried prior therapies.
