Breast cancer that returns after CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment
This study looks at patients whose breast cancer returns after starting a CDK4/6 inhibitor (like abemaciclib or ribociclib) along with hormone therapy. The goal is to understand why the cancer comes back and find better ways to treat it.
Bergamo, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT07183319RecruitingPhase 2
ctDNA test in advanced bladder cancer
This trial studies how a blood test that looks for tumor DNA (ctDNA) can help guide treatment in people with advanced bladder cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. It aims to see if the test results can help doctors choose the best therapy.
Oklahoma City, OklahomaAges 18 years+ - NCT07182279RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Internal radiation before prostate surgery for high-risk cancer
This trial tests a treatment approach for newly diagnosed, high-risk prostate cancer. You would receive a short course of internal radiation (high-dose-rate brachytherapy) before surgery to remove your prostate. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and works better than surgery alone.
Houston, TexasAges 40 years+ - NCT07180082RecruitingPhase 2
Pyrotinib for HER2-positive advanced breast cancer
This trial tests whether taking pyrotinib continuously or intermittently can help people with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer that has spread. It is for those who have already received prior treatment for their advanced disease.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07179926Recruiting
Impact of pasireotide on bone health in acromegaly
This trial studies how pasireotide LAR—a drug that controls growth hormone levels—affects bone health in people with acromegaly whose disease is not well-controlled after 6 months of another therapy. It may help patients understand the bone benefits of switching to this treatment.
Rome, RMAges 18 years+ - NCT07179809Recruiting
Lifestyle program for women with metastatic breast cancer
This trial tests a group-based lifestyle program for women with HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer. The program helps you improve diet, increase physical activity, and learn mind-body practices in a supportive group setting.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07176455Enrolling by invitation
Dietary habits after stomach cancer surgery
This trial studies how older stomach cancer survivors' eating habits change after surgery and tests ways to help them eat healthier. It focuses on people who just had their stomach cancer removed.
NanjingAges 60 years+ - NCT07175077Recruiting
7T MRI scan to find tiny brain metastases in small-cell lung cancer
This trial uses a powerful 7T MRI scanner to detect very small brain metastases in people with small-cell lung cancer who choose not to get preventive brain radiation. The goal is to see if this advanced scan can find hidden spots in the brain that regular MRIs miss.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07178340RecruitingPhase 2
Perioperative therapy for HER2-negative stomach cancer
This trial tests a treatment given before and after surgery for a rare type of stomach cancer called hepatoid adenocarcinoma. It aims to improve outcomes for patients whose tumors are HER2-negative and have not spread too far.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT07182526RecruitingPhase 2
Quercetin or alpha lipoic acid for PCOS symptoms
This trial tests adding quercetin or alpha lipoic acid to standard PCOS care to see if they improve symptoms and blood markers. It may help women who have irregular periods or signs of excess androgens like acne.
Baghdad, KarkhAges 18 years+ - NCT07183150Recruiting
Lymph node removal range for advanced stomach cancer
This study is looking at how far surgeons should remove lymph nodes during surgery for advanced stomach cancer. It may help doctors decide the best way to remove cancer while reducing side effects.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07178847Recruiting
Cancer DNA after chemoradiation for head and neck cancer
This study looks for cancer DNA left in the body after standard chemoradiation for advanced head and neck squamous cell cancer. It aims to understand if this residual DNA means the disease is more likely to come back.
Aurillac, CANTALAges 18–80 - NCT07178301RecruitingPhase 2
Lower radiation dose for HPV-related throat cancer
This trial tests whether a lower dose of radiation to the neck is safe and effective for people with HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer. It may reduce side effects while still treating the cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07182045Recruiting
Blood loss during fibroid surgery study
This study tests if blocking blood flow to the uterus and ovaries during minimally invasive fibroid removal surgery helps reduce bleeding. It may be an option if you are having this type of surgery for large or numerous fibroids.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07182773Recruiting
Cycling before chemo to improve heart and lung fitness
This trial tests whether doing a short cycling workout right before each chemotherapy session can help protect your heart and lungs. It is for people with early-stage breast, ovarian, or colorectal cancer who are starting at least 12 weeks of chemo.
DublinAges 18 years+ - NCT07180056Recruiting
CDK4/6 inhibitor after breast cancer surgery
This trial tests whether a CDK4/6 inhibitor given after surgery can help prevent breast cancer from coming back. It is for people with HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07176624Recruiting
Early prone positioning and tube feeding in ICU
This study tests whether early prone positioning (lying on your stomach) and early tube feeding can help people with severe lung failure in the ICU recover faster. It's for adults with organ failure and severe ARDS who can safely be placed on their stomach.
Changchun, JilinAges 18 years+ - NCT07179744Recruiting
Skipping radiation for low-risk node-positive breast cancer
This trial tests whether some women with low-risk breast cancer that has spread to a few lymph nodes can safely skip radiation therapy after surgery. It aims to reduce side effects while keeping the cancer from coming back.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT07180823Recruiting
Lung nodule tagging before surgery using a navigation system
This trial uses a special navigation system to place tiny markers next to lung nodules before surgery. This helps surgeons find and remove the nodule more precisely.
Bologna, BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT07178587Recruiting
New PET scan for liver and neuroendocrine tumors
This trial tests a new PET imaging method that uses two different tracers to find and stage liver cancer (HCC) or neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NET) more accurately. It may help doctors decide on the best treatment for you.
BrestAges 18 years+ - NCT07180901Recruiting
Optimizing care for head and neck cancer surgery patients
This trial uses a computer system to send reminders and tracking alerts to doctors and patients, aiming to improve care and outcomes after surgery for head and neck cancer. It may help you stay on track with your treatment plan.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT07179783RecruitingPhase 2
Sacituzumab Tirumotecan and Tagitanlimab for aggressive prostate cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs for men with aggressive or neuroendocrine prostate cancer that has worsened after previous hormone therapy. The goal is to see if the combination can shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07182175Enrolling by invitation
Heart health during adrenal tumor surgery study
This study looks at how different types of adrenal tumors might affect the heart during and after surgery. It aims to help doctors understand and reduce the risk of heart injury in patients having these tumors removed.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07179315RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy Study for HPV-Positive Head and Neck Cancer
This trial compares two different immunotherapy approaches for people with HPV-positive oropharyngeal cancer who have completed initial treatment like surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy. The goal is to see which option works better to keep the cancer from coming back, and eligibility is determined by a special blood test that detects HPV DNA.
