Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06036745RecruitingPhase 2
Palizumab and SOX chemo after gastric cancer surgery
This trial tests adding palizumab (an immunotherapy) to standard SOX chemotherapy after surgery for stage IIIB-IIIC gastric or GEJ cancer. It's for people whose tumors have certain markers (MSI-H, TMB-H, or high PD-L1) that may make immunotherapy more effective.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06036706Recruiting
Radiation types and thinking skills for skull base meningioma
This study compares different radiation methods for treating a slow-growing, non-cancerous brain tumor at the base of the skull. It aims to see which approach best protects memory and thinking abilities.
CaenAges 20–65 - NCT06037018RecruitingPhase 1
Study of CC312 for B-cell blood cancers
This trial tests a new drug called CC312 for people with B-cell blood cancers that have come back or stopped responding to treatment. CC312 is designed to target CD19 on cancer cells, and the study checks if it is safe and how the body handles it.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06037681Recruiting
Study on cannabis use and pain outcomes in Black and white patients with cancer
This study looks at how cannabis affects pain and daily life in Black and white patients with solid tumors. It compares people who use cannabis at least once a week to those who don't use it at all.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 21–99 - NCT06037941Recruiting
Breath test to check mesothelioma treatment response
This study is testing a special breath test (called an e-nose) to see if it can tell how well your treatment is working for malignant pleural mesothelioma. It is a non-invasive way to monitor your response to therapy.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 30–85 - NCT06037980RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Chemotherapy before surgery for high-risk bile duct cancer
This trial tests whether receiving chemotherapy (cisplatin, gemcitabine, and nab-paclitaxel) before surgery can improve outcomes for people with high-risk bile duct or gallbladder cancer. It compares this approach to going straight to surgery.
AnconaAges 18–75 - NCT06037902Recruiting
CPAP during radiation for esophageal cancer
This study tests whether using a CPAP mask (which gently pushes air into your airways) during radiation therapy makes treatment safer and more effective for esophageal cancer. It is for adults who are planning radiation and can tolerate wearing the mask.
Ramat GanAges 18 years+ - NCT06037954Recruiting
Mental health support for older adults with cancer
This study offers mental health care for older adults (65+) with breast, colorectal, lung, or prostate cancer who are getting treatment or recently finished. It aims to help people who are also feeling depressed.
New York, New YorkAges 65 years+ - NCT06038032Recruiting
Healthy lifestyle after endometrial cancer
This trial tests a program to help endometrial cancer survivors improve their diet, physical activity, and weight. It aims to see if these changes can reduce the risk of the cancer coming back and improve overall health.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT06039085Recruiting
Electrical sensing for real-time cancer margin check during prostate surgery
This study tests a new device that uses tiny electrical sensors to help surgeons check if all the cancer has been removed during prostate cancer surgery. It could give real-time feedback so the surgeon can remove leftover cancer right away.
