Comparing two ablation methods for early-stage lung cancer
This study compares two ways to destroy early-stage lung cancer without surgery: one using a needle through the chest (CT-guided) and another using a thin tube through the mouth (bronchoscopy-guided). It might be an option if you have small, outer-edge lung cancer and cannot or prefer not to have surgery.

Geriatric support to speed recovery after CAR-T for older adults
This study tests whether extra geriatric support before and after CAR-T cell therapy helps people 60 and older recover faster. It is for patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma or multiple myeloma who are scheduled for an FDA-approved CAR-T treatment.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT06052488Recruiting

Comparing radiation side effects for low-risk prostate cancer
This trial compares two types of radiation therapy (SBRT and LDR brachytherapy) for men with low-risk or favorable intermediate-risk prostate cancer. The goal is to see which treatment causes fewer side effects.
Québec, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06053086Recruiting
Adaptive radiation therapy for breast cancer patients at high risk
This trial tests a new way to deliver radiation therapy that adapts to each patient's body changes during treatment. It is for women who had breast cancer surgery and need radiation to the whole breast and nearby lymph nodes, and who have been identified as being at risk for breast fibrosis.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT06053099Recruiting
Study of osimertinib after surgery for EGFR-mutated lung cancer
This trial collects data from people with early-stage lung cancer that has a common EGFR mutation. After complete surgical removal of the tumor, participants take osimertinib for 3 years and are followed regularly to see how well the treatment works and why resistance might develop.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT06053658RecruitingPhase 2
Tivozanib and Nivolumab for advanced kidney cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (tivozanib and nivolumab) for people with advanced kidney cancer that is not clear cell type. It aims to see if this drug pair can shrink or slow the cancer.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06055387Recruiting
Frailty care for older stomach cancer patients after surgery
This study tests a frailty assessment and intervention program for people aged 65+ with stage II or III stomach cancer who will have surgery and chemotherapy afterward. It aims to improve recovery and quality of life.
Taoyuan, TaiwanAges 65 years+ - NCT06054295Recruiting
Twin study of childhood brain tumors
This study looks at genetic differences between identical twins where only one twin has a childhood brain or spinal cord tumor. It helps researchers understand why some children get cancer and others don't.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges Up to 18 years - NCT06055010Recruiting
Improving pancreatic cancer care with computer science
This study uses data from patients with pancreatic conditions and healthy people to improve care through computer analysis. It may help researchers develop better tools for diagnosis and treatment.
UtrechtAges Any age - NCT06054776RecruitingPhase 2
Acalabrutinib, obinutuzumab, and glofitamab for mantle cell lymphoma
This trial tests a combination of three targeted drugs for mantle cell lymphoma that has come back or not responded to prior treatment. It aims to see if this new drug cocktail can work better than standard options.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06054854Recruiting
Lung Cancer Biomarker Study (BIRD Biobank)
This study collects blood, tissue, and other samples from people with lung nodules, suspected lung cancer, or confirmed lung cancer to find better ways to diagnose and treat the disease. By joining, you help researchers discover new biomarkers that could improve care for future patients.
ToulouseAges 18 years+ - NCT06055894Recruiting
Plant-based diet and supplements for smoldering myeloma or MGUS
This study tests whether a plant-based diet and certain supplements can help people with smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM) or monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). Participants will learn to cook plant-based recipes and track their meals using a phone app.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06054906RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemo before surgery for stomach cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (sintilimab) and a low-dose weekly chemotherapy regimen before surgery for locally advanced stomach cancer that can be removed. The goal is to see if this approach helps shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.

Re-irradiation with low-dose pulses for recurrent glioma
This trial tests a new way to deliver radiation therapy for people whose brain tumor (glioma) has come back after earlier treatment. Instead of standard radiation, it uses very low doses given in pulses, which may be safer for patients who have already had radiation to the head.
