This trial tests a drug called dostarlimab alone or with bevacizumab compared to standard chemotherapy for women whose clear cell cancer of the ovary, uterus, cervix, vagina, or vulva has come back within a year of platinum chemotherapy. The goal is to see if these newer treatments can help control the cancer better.

Cold vs. heat cutting in nipple-sparing mastectomy
This study compares two ways of cutting tissue during nipple-sparing mastectomy (breast removal with nipple preservation) followed by immediate implant reconstruction. One method uses a cold instrument, the other uses heat (electrocautery). The goal is to see which leads to better nipple survival and healing.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06024109Recruiting
Comparing two stitches for laparoscopic hysterectomy
This trial compares two types of stitches (SYMMCORA vs. V-Loc) used during laparoscopic hysterectomy to see which one works best. It is for women having planned keyhole removal of the uterus.
Frankfurt am Main, HesseAges 18 years+ - NCT06024837Recruiting
Testing spectral CT for colorectal cancer spread to liver or belly
This study tests a new type of CT scan (spectral CT) to see how well it detects colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver or belly lining. It may help doctors better plan surgery to remove all the cancer.
Saint-EtienneAges Any age - NCT06026189Recruiting
Reducing cystoscopy for blood in urine
This trial tests if we can safely skip a bladder camera test (cystoscopy) for people who have microscopic blood in their urine. If you meet certain criteria, you may not need the procedure.
RotterdamAges Any age - NCT06026488Recruiting
Study of DLBCL by genetic subtype
This study looks at how different genetic types of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) respond to treatment in real-world settings. It may help doctors understand which treatments work best for your specific subtype.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06026319RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cells targeting CD79b and CD19 for non-Hodgkin lymphoma
This trial tests a new type of CAR T-cell therapy that targets two proteins (CD79b and CD19) on lymphoma cells. It's for people with certain types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that have come back or not responded to previous treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06026410RecruitingPhase 1
KO-2806 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called KO-2806, alone or with other treatments, for people with advanced solid tumors that have specific gene changes (like HRAS or KRAS mutations). It may help if standard treatments have stopped working.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06026774RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized mRNA Vaccine After Digestive Cancer Surgery
This trial tests a personalized mRNA vaccine designed to train your immune system to fight your specific cancer. It's for people who have just had surgery to remove a digestive system cancer (like pancreatic or colorectal) and will also receive standard chemotherapy after surgery.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06026800RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized mRNA vaccine plus standard treatment for advanced digestive cancers
This trial tests a personalized mRNA vaccine (iNeo-Vac-R01) given alongside standard first-line treatment for advanced digestive system cancers. The vaccine is made specifically for your tumor's unique genetic changes (neoantigens) and aims to help your immune system fight the cancer more effectively.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06026878RecruitingPhase 3
GNT induction treatment for advanced nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination called GNT given before standard chemoradiation for people with locally advanced nasopharyngeal cancer. It aims to improve treatment outcomes.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–75 - NCT06027086RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Combination drug therapy for advanced fibrolamellar carcinoma
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs—DRP-104 and durvalumab—to see if they can shrink or slow advanced fibrolamellar carcinoma, a rare liver cancer. It is for patients whose cancer has gotten worse even after immunotherapy treatment.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 12 years+ - NCT06026943Recruiting
Alpha radiation therapy for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
