Study of a new treatment for advanced cancers with c-MET protein
This study tests a new radioactive treatment for people with advanced solid tumors, such as certain lung, colon, head and neck, or bile duct cancers, that have stopped responding to standard treatments.

Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT07807956RecruitingPhase 1
Intravenous study drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an investigational drug given through an IV to see if it can help people with advanced solid tumors. It aims to learn about side effects, how the drug works in the body, and whether it can slow or shrink the cancer.
Grand Rapids, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07843212Recruiting
Nerve block for breast cancer surgery
This study tests a nerve block (called SPSIP) given during breast cancer surgery to see if it reduces inflammation and affects a protein called TLR4, which may help with pain and recovery. If you're having breast cancer surgery, this might help you heal better with less discomfort.
Çorum, ÇorumAges 18–85 - NCT04790253Recruiting
Check brain radiation timing or frequent MRI scans for SCLC
This study compares two ways to follow and treat small-cell lung cancer in the brain: preventive brain radiation versus close monitoring with MRI scans and treatment only if needed. It may help people avoid unnecessary brain treatment or choose the safer timing strategy.
GrazAges 18 years+ - NCT07405164RecruitingPhase 3
Long-term extension study for people taking belzutifan
This study is for people who are already taking belzutifan in a related trial (LITESPARK-043) and want to continue treatment for advanced solid tumors or von Hippel-Lindau-related conditions. It tests the safety and effects of long-term use.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07649655RecruitingPhase 1
Combination therapy for left-sided colorectal cancer
This study tests a new experimental drug, EMB-01, combined with different chemotherapy regimens to treat left-sided colorectal cancer that has spread or cannot be removed. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective for people who have not responded to standard treatments or are new to certain chemotherapies.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–74 - NCT07220018Recruiting
Colorectal cancer screening for homeless adults
This study offers free colorectal cancer screening to homeless adults aged 45 to 75 who haven't had recent screening. It aims to find and prevent cancer early in people staying at shelter clinics.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 45–75 - NCT07686445RecruitingPhase 1
Study of AN4035 for advanced cancers with RAS mutations
This trial tests a new drug, AN4035, for people with advanced cancers that have a RAS mutation and high levels of a protein called CEACAM5. The drug may help shrink tumors or slow their growth.
PerthAges 18 years+ - NCT07767474RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of investigational drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental drug (ATX-898) alone or with other treatments for advanced solid tumors. It aims to see if the drug is safe and works against cancer, and it may be an option if you've already tried standard treatments.
Fort Worth, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04305834RecruitingPhase 2
Abemaciclib plus hormone pills for metastatic breast cancer in older adults
This Phase 2 study tests whether abemaciclib combined with standard hormone (endocrine) therapy can better control metastatic breast cancer in people age 70 and older. It may help if your cancer has already grown despite prior hormone therapy and/or other cancer medicines.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 70 years+ - NCT06917092RecruitingPhase 2
New treatment for advanced endometrial cancer after prior therapy
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug (QL1706) for people with advanced endometrial cancer whose previous immunotherapy stopped working. It aims to see if this different approach can help when standard treatments have failed.
TianjinAges 18–70 - NCT07714980Recruiting
Acupoint stimulation timing for stomach cancer surgery recovery
This trial tests whether giving a gentle, needle-free acupoint stimulation before or after stomach cancer surgery helps speed up recovery. The stimulation uses a small device on the skin, similar to a tens unit, to support recovery after laparoscopic gastrectomy.
Dongying, ShandongAges 18–80 - NCT07796061RecruitingPhase 1
Ultrasound plus immune cells for brain tumors
This trial tests a new way to treat a type of brain tumor called diffuse midline glioma. It uses focused ultrasound to open a tiny gap in the blood-brain barrier, which may help special immune cells (T-cells) reach and attack the tumor. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and helpful.

New drug combo vs usual care for high-risk multiple myeloma
This trial tests whether a new combination of drugs (daratumumab and teclistamab) works better than the usual treatments for multiple myeloma that has come back or stopped responding, especially in people with a high-risk form of the disease. Participants will be randomly assigned to get either the new combo or one of the standard combos.
