Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06985602RecruitingPhase 2
Adebrelimab with Chemo and Radiation for Stomach Cancer
This trial tests a drug called adebrelimab along with chemotherapy and radiation before surgery for stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has spread locally or has limited spread. It aims to see if this combination can help make the tumor removable and improve outcomes.
Nanjing, ProvinceAges 18–80 - NCT06984250Recruiting
Shorter radiation with extra focus on tumor site for breast cancer
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation therapy that includes an extra dose to the tumor site for women with early-stage breast cancer. It aims to make treatment more convenient and effective after breast-conserving surgery.
Taipei, TaiwanAges 20–85 - NCT01221168Recruiting
Study genetics and family patterns of prostate cancer
This is a study that looks at how prostate cancer runs in families and what genetic factors may be involved. It may help researchers better understand hereditary risk, whether you have prostate cancer or are a family member without it.
