This study looks at how chemotherapy may affect thinking and memory in people with HER2-negative breast cancer. It uses brain scans during or after chemotherapy to understand these changes and potentially guide support in the future.
AberdeenAges 18 years+ - NCT05740956RecruitingPhase 1
Drug study for cancers with HRR gene or HRD changes
This Phase 1 study tests HS-10502 in people with advanced solid tumors that have certain DNA repair problems (HRR or HRD). It may help by finding a safe dose and seeing whether the drug can shrink tumors in cancers that have specific genetic features.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05741164RecruitingPhase 2
Propranolol plus pembrolizumab for hard-to-treat breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding propranolol to pembrolizumab can “re-sensitize” tumors and slow cancer in triple-negative breast cancer that no longer responds to checkpoint immunotherapy. It may help some people whose cancer has grown despite prior pembrolizumab and chemotherapy.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05741073Recruiting
Study of European registry data for advanced skin cancers
This study uses information from a European registry to learn how real-world treatments work for advanced non-melanoma skin cancers. It may help doctors improve care in the future, especially for people who have had surgery and radiation or who cannot have curative treatments.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT05740995Recruiting
New pre-op treatment for esophageal cancer using immunotherapy plus chemo
This trial studies giving immunotherapy (anti–PD-1) together with chemotherapy before surgery for certain locally advanced esophageal squamous cell cancer. The goal is to improve how well the tumor responds before and after the operation.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05742607RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab plus IPH5201 before lung surgery for early cancer
This phase 2 study tests durvalumab plus IPH5201 given before surgery to improve outcomes for people with resectable non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to shrink or control the cancer and make surgery more effective, using information about specific tumor markers like PD-L1.
St. Petersburg, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05743049Recruiting
Collecting blood markers in pancreatic cancer patients
This study collects samples of substances in your blood to learn more about pancreatic cancer. It may help researchers find better ways to track the disease or understand which patients may benefit from future treatments.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05743426Recruiting
Tracking outcomes and side effects in GI and sarcoma cancers
This study follows adults with gastrointestinal cancer or sarcoma to better understand how patients do after treatment and what side effects happen. It may help researchers improve care for future patients by documenting real-world outcomes and toxicities.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05743517Recruiting
Exercise program for older women with gynecologic cancer
This trial tests a physical activity (exercise) program for women over 60 who are being treated for cancers of the uterus, ovaries, cervix, or vulva/vagina. It may help improve strength and daily functioning during treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 60 years+ - NCT05743621RecruitingPhase 1
First TVB-2640 and enzalutamide for metastatic prostate cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a new medicine (TVB-2640) combined with enzalutamide in men with prostate cancer that has spread and is no longer responding to hormone treatment. It aims to find a safe dose and see how well the treatment can work against the cancer.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05744219RecruitingPhase 3
Iron after major abdominal surgery to improve recovery
This Phase 3 study tests whether giving iron (as ferric carboxymaltose) after complex major surgery can improve recovery by helping your body rebuild blood and oxygen levels after blood loss. It may help patients who are having certain types of aortic, liver, or pancreas operations.
Uppsala, SverigeAges 18 years+ - NCT05744687RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Letrozole plus SPH4336 versus letrozole alone for breast cancer
This study tests whether adding SPH4336 to letrozole works better than letrozole plus a placebo for treating hormone-receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancer in people starting first-line treatment. It may help slow cancer growth more effectively if the added drug is beneficial.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT05745038Recruiting
Social support program for people with advanced cancer
This trial tests a social network support intervention to help people with advanced or likely incurable cancer stay connected and supported. It includes the patient and up to 10 people they choose as their support network.
Rochester, New YorkAges 60 years+ - NCT05745285Recruiting
LLS care support program for blood cancer patients
This study looks at whether LLS services and support improve outcomes and the day-to-day experience of care for people with leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, MDS, or MPN. It’s mainly about matching you to the right support and following your progress for 6 months.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05745714RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted triple-combination treatment for children with relapsed blood cancers
This Phase 1/2 study tests a multi-drug combination (ruxolitinib, venetoclax, dexamethasone, plus chemotherapy) for children whose blood cancer has come back or did not respond. It aims to reduce the cancer by targeting specific genetic changes and may offer a new option when standard treatments have not worked.
ViennaAges 1–21 - NCT05745844Recruiting
Electro-stimulation plus exercise for prostate cancer muscle health
This trial tests whether adding neuromuscular electrical stimulation to an exercise program can improve strength and physical function in men with prostate cancer who are on hormone-blocking treatment. It may help prevent or reduce muscle weakness that can happen during androgen deprivation therapy.
AnnemasseAges 18–90 - NCT05746182Recruiting
Genetic testing program for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors
This study offers genetic (inherited) testing for people with pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms. The goal is to see who may have a genetic predisposition, which can help guide medical care and family risk.

Scan for early esophagus cancer using infused antibody dyes
This Phase 2 study uses special drug dyes (bevacizumab and cetuximab, each tagged for imaging) during an esophagus scope to help doctors find very early abnormal cells, like low- or high-grade pre-cancer and superficial cancer. If you qualify, the goal is earlier detection and better targeting during diagnosis and treatment.

Testing elastic threads to lift mild to moderate facial sagging
This trial tests the safety and performance of a special “elastic thread” treatment used to lift facial drooping (mild to moderate ptosis) in people who may or may not have had prior cosmetic treatments. You may benefit by getting the study treatment, but you would need to follow the visit schedule and rules of the study.
