This trial tests whether a new drug, odronextamab, combined with lenalidomide works better than the current standard, rituximab combined with lenalidomide, for people whose follicular or marginal zone lymphoma has come back or not responded to prior treatment. It aims to see which combo is safer and more effective.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04221893Recruiting

San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05126472RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of 2141-V11 for bladder cancer that did not respond to standard treatment
This trial tests a new drug, 2141-V11, for people with bladder cancer that has not gone away after standard treatments like BCG therapy. It may help those with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer or, in one group, muscle-invasive bladder cancer, who cannot have or choose not to have bladder removal surgery.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06914440RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation and immunotherapy before surgery for HR+/HER2- breast cancer
This trial is testing a new treatment approach for patients with a certain type of breast cancer (HR+/HER2-). It combines radiation therapy with chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug before the patient's main surgery, to see if it can shrink or eliminate the tumor more effectively.
Xi'an, Shannxi ProvinceAges 18–75 - NCT07393542RecruitingPhase 3
Combination treatment for advanced bladder cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two medications, SHR-A2102 and adebrelimab, for people with advanced bladder cancer that has not been treated before. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors and help patients live longer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07765927Recruiting
Exercise program for people with breast or gynecologic cancer
This study is testing whether an exercise program for people with breast or gynecologic cancer is feasible to run. It aims to see if patients can participate and follow the program.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18 years+ - NCT07766044Recruiting
Comparing two ways to close belly surgery cuts
This study compares two methods of closing the cut made during belly surgery to see which one is less likely to cause a hernia later. It is for people having planned colorectal surgery through a midline incision.
Helsingborg, Skåne CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT04073966Recruiting
MRI markers for memory changes after brain radiation
This study uses MRI scans to look at how radiation treatment for newly diagnosed brain metastases affects thinking and memory. It aims to understand the effects better, which may help guide future treatment.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06537596RecruitingPhase 1
Imaging test for soft tissue sarcoma and other tumors
This study tests an imaging agent that may help see tumors with a specific protein called PDGFR alpha. It may help doctors better understand your cancer and plan treatment.
Brisbane, QueenslandAges 18 years+ - NCT06738303RecruitingPhase 2
Cabazitaxel with or without carboplatin vs lutetium PSMA for prostate cancer
This trial compares two treatment approaches for advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy. One group gets chemotherapy (cabazitaxel with or without carboplatin) and the other gets a targeted radiation therapy (177Lu-PSMA-617). The goal is to see which works better.
Cleveland, OhioAges 19 years+ - NCT07764796Recruiting
