Artificial tears to prevent tear duct blockage during RAI therapy
This study tests if using artificial tears (eye drops that keep your eyes moist) can prevent tear duct blockage in people receiving high-dose radioactive iodine for thyroid cancer. If you qualify, you will use artificial tears during your treatment to see if they help keep your tear ducts open.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05999396RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new antibody for colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug called CC-3, which is a type of antibody designed to help your immune system attack colorectal cancer cells. It is for people whose cancer has spread and who have already tried several standard treatments.
Tübingen, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT06000917RecruitingPhase 2
Study of combination therapy before surgery for ER+/HER2+ breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of targeted therapies and chemotherapy given before surgery for women with a specific type of breast cancer that is both ER-positive and HER2-positive. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06000787Recruiting
MCT imaging for brain tumors and neuroblastoma
This study is for children or young adults already in specific brain tumor or neuroblastoma trials. It looks at how a type of imaging (MCT) might help doctors better understand and treat these cancers.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06001073Recruiting
Heart and brain disease health prediction study
This study uses advanced health data to predict how heart and brain conditions may progress. It aims to help doctors provide better care for people with these diseases.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 3–80 - NCT06001086RecruitingPhase 2
Disitamab Vedotin plus Pyrotinib for HER2-positive early breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (Disitamab Vedotin and Pyrotinib) for people with HER2-positive early breast cancer. It aims to see if this treatment can improve outcomes before standard therapy.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06001281Recruiting
Blood test to predict treatment response in glioblastoma
This study looks at whether a blood marker called CD146 can help predict how well patients with a recurrent brain tumor (glioblastoma) respond to a treatment called bevacizumab. The goal is to see if this test can help doctors personalize care.
MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT06001151RecruitingPhase 2
Cadonilimab plus chemo for PD-L1 negative lung cancer
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug called cadonilimab combined with chemotherapy as a first treatment for people with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer that does not have the PD-L1 protein. The goal is to see if this combination works better than standard treatments.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06001528Recruiting
Predicting lymph node spread in breast cancer
This study looks at whether substances called metabolites in your blood and breast tissue can help predict if breast cancer has spread to the first lymph node (sentinel node). If you are scheduled for breast cancer surgery and have not had prior treatment, the study team will use your blood and tissue samples to try to improve prediction.
Shantou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06001619RecruitingPhase 4
Prostate medication, metabolism, and gut bacteria
