Study comparing treatments for advanced lung cancer using medical records
This trial does not test a new drug. It looks at existing medical records to compare how well different treatments work for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. You may be eligible if your cancer is advanced and you are not in another clinical trial.
Monterey, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07179692RecruitingPhase 1
CEA-targeted CAR-T therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a type of immunotherapy called CAR-T, which is designed to recognize and attack cancer cells that have a protein called CEA on their surface. It's for people with advanced cancers like colorectal, esophageal, gastric, pancreatic, lung, or bile duct cancer who have tried at least two standard treatments.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT06307938Recruiting
Liquid biopsy test for colorectal cancer before colonoscopy
This trial tests a simple blood test (liquid biopsy) to find cancer signals in the DNA of people being called for a colonoscopy. If you are scheduled for a colonoscopy, your blood sample could help doctors detect colorectal cancer earlier and plan better treatment.
LevangerAges 18 years+ - NCT06949891Recruiting
Keto diet for acromegaly
This trial tests if a ketogenic (very low-carb) diet can help lower IGF-I levels in people with acromegaly who are already on stable medication. If you have acromegaly and your IGF-I levels are still above normal despite treatment, this diet might offer an additional way to manage your condition.
RotterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT06030258RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of IN10018 plus standard chemo for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called IN10018 combined with standard chemotherapy (carboplatin and etoposide) and an immunotherapy (anti-PD-1/L1) for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) who have not yet been treated. The goal is to see if adding IN10018 helps shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
JinanAges 18–75 - NCT05863234RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2

This early-phase study tests a new treatment approach for people with aggressive NK-cell leukemia, focusing mainly on safety. It may be offered to patients whose disease matches the study’s specific leukemia diagnosis rules.
Hiroshima, HiroshimaAges 18–70 - NCT05386615Recruiting
Pregnancy follow-up registry after Exablate for fibroids
This study keeps track of people’s pregnancy and birth outcomes after having Exablate treatment for symptomatic uterine fibroids. It may help doctors understand how safe and effective the treatment can be for future pregnancy plans.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–50 - NCT06014528RecruitingPhase 2
IN10018 plus liposomal doxorubicin for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer
This trial tests if adding the drug IN10018 to standard chemotherapy (liposomal doxorubicin) can help women with ovarian cancer that has stopped responding to platinum-based treatments. It aims to see if the combination works better than chemotherapy alone.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05065957RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of two oral chemo medicines for advanced bile duct cancer
This trial tests a combination of two oral chemotherapy medicines (D07001 softgel plus Xeloda/TS-1) in people with advanced bile duct tract cancer that can’t be removed by surgery. It’s for situations where first-line gemcitabine plus cisplatin chemotherapy no longer worked.
Kaohsiung CityAges 18 years+ - NCT05352035Recruiting
Study tumor evolution in early lung cancer after surgery
This study looks at how lung cancer changes over time by analyzing tumor tissue and blood. It may help researchers understand what drives cancer relapse after early-stage surgery.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05715502Recruiting
Targeted radiation for prostate cancer that came back
This study tests a focused (“salvage”) brachytherapy—radiation placed directly near the prostate—to treat prostate cancer that has returned after earlier radiation. It may help control the tumor while limiting radiation exposure to surrounding tissues, based on how well people fit the study’s safety and cancer details.
Poznan, Greater Poland VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT05835570Recruiting
PET scan using an integrin marker to find cancer
This trial uses a special PET/CT scan that targets a protein on some cancer cells to help detect and evaluate malignant tumors. It may help doctors better map tumors before any cancer treatment starts.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–85 - NCT05827796RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing IN10018 plus chemo with an added antibody in pancreatic cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a new medicine (IN10018) and a specific added antibody (KN046) together with standard chemotherapy for advanced pancreatic cancer. It aims to see whether this combination can better control the cancer and how safely it can be given.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06212479Recruiting
Whole-body MRI for Preventive Health Screening
This study uses whole-body MRI to see if it can find health issues early in people without symptoms. The goal is to learn if this scan can help predict clinically important conditions in routine preventive care.
Watertown, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05994131RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
IN10018 plus targeted therapy for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called IN10018 combined with a targeted therapy (third-generation EGFR-TKI) for people with advanced EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer. It's designed for different stages of treatment, from first-time therapy to after other treatments have stopped working.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT06498258Recruiting
Wellness support for cancer caregivers in Istanbul
This study tests a psychoeducation program based on positive psychotherapy to help caregivers of cancer patients. It may improve your well-being and caregiving experience.
Kağithane, İ̇stanbulAges 18–65 - NCT06941766RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab for intermediate trophoblastic tumors
This trial tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (iparomlimab and tuvonralimab) for a rare type of pregnancy-related tumor called intermediate trophoblastic tumor. It may help women whose disease has spread, come back, or is resistant to standard treatment.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06930586Recruiting

Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–18 - NCT07171528RecruitingPhase 2
Surgery after chemo for recurrent ovarian cancer
This trial is for people with recurrent ovarian cancer whose disease came back more than 6 months after platinum chemo. It tests whether removing the recurrent tumor with surgery (after more chemo) can help—even if surgery wasn't an option before.

ALE.P03 for advanced CLDN1-positive solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, ALE.P03, for people with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have a certain protein (CLDN1). The drug is given alone (monotherapy) to see if it can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
