- NCT05613023RecruitingPhase 3
Short-course prostate and pelvic SBRT using 5 treatment sessions
This study compares two schedules of highly focused radiation (SBRT): 5 sessions to the prostate only, versus 5 sessions to the prostate and nearby pelvic lymph nodes. It aims to see which approach controls high-risk localized prostate cancer better while you also take hormone therapy.
CorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05613478RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy plus targeted medicine with TACE around liver surgery
This Phase 3 trial tests whether combining camrelizumab and apatinib with TACE before/around liver cancer surgery can improve outcomes for people with certain stages of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It may help by strengthening the immune attack on cancer and by blocking blood supply to tumors.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT05614375Recruiting
Endoscopic surgery for soft tissue cancer in the nose
This trial studies using a minimally invasive camera-assisted surgery to remove soft tissue sarcoma in the nose and nearby sinuses. It may help by aiming to fully remove the tumor safely while considering how well patients’ bodies can handle surgery.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT05615636RecruitingPhase 2
Study of four medicines for relapsed B-cell lymphoma
This Phase 2 trial tests a combination of several medicines for people whose lymphoma has come back or did not respond to prior treatment. It aims to shrink the lymphoma by using different ways to attack B-cell cancer.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05615818RecruitingPhase 3
Study of targeted drug choices for advanced bile duct cancers
This Phase 3 trial matches people with advanced bile duct cancer or gallbladder cancer to a specific targeted medicine based on their tumor’s lab results. It aims to improve disease control by using the right drug for the specific changes found in the cancer.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT05615974RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
LM-101 injection study for advanced solid tumors
This Phase I/II study tests LM-101, a new injection, in adults with advanced solid cancers that have already been treated and kept growing. It aims to see how safe it is and whether it can shrink tumors or help people live longer.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05616325Recruiting
Fertility follow-up for women after lymphoma chemotherapy
This study looks at long-term ovarian (egg-producing) fertility after chemotherapy for lymphoma, about 5 years after treatment ends. It may help doctors better understand pregnancy potential and guide future family-planning care.
LilleAges 18–45 - NCT05616650RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted radiation for one prostate tumor spot
This Phase 2 study tests a focused radiation approach using stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for people with one prostate tumor visible on imaging. It aims to treat a single tumor area while limiting treatment to the rest of the prostate.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05616988Recruiting
Study body-image improvement after breast cancer surgery
This study looks at how body image changes after mastectomy and breast reconstruction, and whether certain body chemistry patterns (called metabolomics) are linked to that change. It may help researchers understand what supports better body-image recovery after breast cancer.
Rome, RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT05617716RecruitingPhase 2
Spine radiosurgery for painful cancer spread to the spine
This Phase 2 study tests a precise radiation treatment (spine SBRT, also called radiosurgery) to reduce pain from cancer that has spread to the spine. It focuses on people with stable spine structure and low pain at the start, to see how well the treatment works and stays safe.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05618041Recruiting
CAR-T treatment trial for relapsed or hard-to-treat blood cancers
This trial studies whether a CAR-T cell therapy is safe and effective for people with relapsed or refractory lymphoma, leukemia, or myeloma whose tumors have the right target markers. You may qualify if your health (heart, lungs, kidneys, liver) and blood counts are within required limits.
Taiyuan, ShanxiAges 14–75 - NCT05618821RecruitingPhase 2
Indocyanine green dye during stomach surgery for leftover cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether using a special light-activated dye (indocyanine green) during laparoscopic stomach surgery can improve surgical outcomes for people with remnant (leftover) stomach cancer that has not spread to distant organs. It may help surgeons better find lymph nodes while operating.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT05618990Recruiting
Trying optimized MRI scans for clearer imaging
This study tests improved MRI scan settings to get clearer images. You may be able to take part if you’re able to safely have an MRI and you meet basic study consent and contraception rules.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05619731Recruiting
Telehealth geriatric care for older adults with cancer
This trial checks whether video visits (teleconsulting) that include a “geriatric oncology” assessment can better support older adults with cancer. It may help your care plan by considering age-related health needs, not just cancer treatment.
AvignonAges 75 years+ - NCT05620290RecruitingPhase 1
MR-guided ultrasound plus radiation to help skin cancer respond
This Phase 1 study tests a new way to make radiation work better using MRI-guided focused ultrasound. It focuses on improving treatment for malignant melanoma and other skin cancers, while checking safety and how patients experience treatment.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05620329Recruiting
Pleural fluid registry for drainage in adults
This registry collects information from adults who have fluid around the lungs (pleural effusion) and need clinically indicated drainage because of infection or cancer. It helps researchers better understand these conditions and improve future care.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05620342RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CAR T-cell therapy for GD2-positive lung cancer
This early-phase study tests a customized immune-cell treatment (CAR T cells) that targets a protein called GD2 on lung cancer cells. It may help people with certain lung cancers that did not respond to platinum chemotherapy and who have also had treatment that blocks PD-1/PD-L1.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05620628RecruitingPhase 2
Test savolitinib plus durvalumab for MET-amplified stomach cancer
This trial studies whether blocking MET (a cancer growth signal) with savolitinib, combined with durvalumab (an immune treatment), can shrink advanced gastric (stomach) cancer that has worsened after chemotherapy. It may help people whose tumors have MET amplification and measurable disease that can be tracked on scans.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05620680Recruiting
CD7 CAR-T for relapsed or resistant T-cell cancers
This trial studies a type of immune cell therapy (CAR-T) made from your own T-cells, designed to treat T-cell lymphoma or T-cell leukemia that has come back or didn’t respond. It may help by directing your immune system to attack the cancer, and it requires specific eligibility and safety checks.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05620771RecruitingPhase 2
Y-90 radioembolization plus treatment for high-risk liver cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests TheraSphere® (a Y-90 radiation treatment delivered to the liver) combined with standard systemic therapy in people with high-risk hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes for people whose liver cancer is at higher risk to worsen.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05621564Recruiting
Pre-surgery treatment for women with breast cancer
This trial studies a treatment given before surgery for people with breast cancer. It may help shrink or control the cancer before an operation, depending on what the study drug or approach is.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT05621837Recruiting
Biomarker study to guide treatment for several advanced cancers
This study measures how strongly your immune system is being suppressed and uses that information to help personalize cancer treatment. It mainly looks at people with certain advanced cancers and needs tumor tissue and follow-up to check possible immune-related markers.
MilanAges 18–90 - NCT05622409Recruiting
Tissue and genetic data registry for diffuse glioma in adults
This study collects tumor tissue and basic medical information to better understand the genes involved in adult diffuse glioma. It may help future treatments by building a detailed research database and matching patients to study arms.
Kaohsiung CityAges 20 years+ - NCT05623267RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
SugeMalimab after lung radiation and chemotherapy for limited-stage SCLC
This trial tests sugemalimab as “extra treatment” after standard chemoradiation for limited-stage small cell lung cancer. It aims to lower the chance of the cancer coming back by helping the immune system stay active after initial therapy.
