Study on how essential thrombocythemia evolves into polycythemia vera
This study watches how a blood condition called essential thrombocythemia (ET) changes into another condition called polycythemia vera (PV) in people with a specific JAK2 mutation. It aims to learn more about these changes and what happens to patients over time.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–100 - NCT07207395RecruitingPhase 2
Study of JBI-802 with or without pembrolizumab for STK11-mutated lung cancer
This trial tests a new oral drug, JBI-802, alone or with pembrolizumab, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific change in the STK11 gene. The goal is to see if this treatment can help shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07205731RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab for older adults with advanced esophageal cancer
This trial tests a drug called tislelizumab (an immunotherapy) in older adults (70+) with advanced esophageal cancer who cannot have standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if the drug can slow or shrink the cancer safely.
Annecy, Epagny Metz-TessyAges 70 years+ - NCT07209917Recruiting
Cervical cancer prevention for women with HIV and HPV
This trial tests a new way to prevent cervical cancer in women with both HIV and HPV. It focuses on women in India who are already on stable HIV treatment and have a normal cervical exam.
Bangalore, KarnatakaAges 25–50 - NCT07209059RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab plus first-line therapy for advanced Hodgkin lymphoma
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug nivolumab to the first treatment of advanced Hodgkin lymphoma can improve outcomes. It uses PET scans to guide therapy, potentially reducing the need for stronger chemotherapy.
MoscowAges 18–60 - NCT07203053RecruitingPhase 2
Tarlatamab for advanced small cell lung cancer after first treatment
This trial tests a new drug called tarlatamab for people with advanced small cell lung cancer that has worsened after one prior round of chemotherapy plus immunotherapy. It's designed for patients who are still active but may need extra support (ECOG 2).
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT06843889RecruitingPhase 2
Toripalimab with chemoradiation before surgery for esophageal cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug toripalimab to standard chemoradiation before surgery helps people with a type of esophageal cancer. It is for patients whose cancer has not spread to other organs and who have not had treatment before.
Guangzhou, Baiyun DistrictAges 18–75 - NCT03500133RecruitingPhase 4

Radiofrequency ablation for low-risk thyroid cancer
This trial tests a procedure called radiofrequency ablation to treat small, low-risk thyroid cancer. If you have a small nodule (2 cm or less) that is confirmed as cancer or suspicious for cancer (Bethesda 5/6), this treatment may be an option instead of surgery.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–100 - NCT06930807Recruiting
