New PET scan for spotting cancer spread in the abdomen
This trial tests a new type of PET scan (Ga68-FAPI-46) to better see if cancer from the colon, rectum, or ovary has spread to the lining of the belly. If you are already scheduled for surgery to remove these cancer spots, this scan may help your doctors plan a more complete operation.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06063681RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new ENPPI inhibitor for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, SR-8541A, that blocks an enzyme called ENPPI, which may help slow or stop tumor growth. It is for people with advanced or metastatic solid tumors who have not responded to other treatments or have no standard options.
Randwick, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT06062745RecruitingPhase 1
PET scan study for prostate cancer with low PSMA or neuroendocrine features
This study tests a special PET scan (fluciclovine) to see if it can better detect prostate cancer that has low PSMA levels or has changed to a neuroendocrine type. It may help find tumors that standard PSMA scans miss.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06063551Recruiting
Freezing testicular tissue to protect fertility in boys with cancer
This study freezes a small piece of testicular tissue from boys with cancer before they start treatment that could cause permanent infertility. The tissue is stored so that, in the future, it might help them have biological children.
Edinburgh, LothianAges 1 day–18 years - NCT06063486RecruitingPhase 2
Curcumin for inflammation and symptoms in blood disorders
This trial tests whether curcumin, a natural compound found in turmeric, can reduce inflammation and improve symptoms like fatigue in people with certain blood disorders that cause low blood counts or overproduction of blood cells. It is for patients with clonal cytopenia of uncertain significance, low-risk myelodysplastic syndrome, or myeloproliferative neoplasms (polycythemia vera, essential thrombocytosis, or myelofibrosis) who have bothersome symptoms.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06063928Recruiting
Cancer support study for Hispanic patients
This study explores how community support affects Hispanic people with colon or rectal cancer. You provide a tumor sample and answer questions to help researchers learn how to better support patients like you.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06064461Recruiting
Myasthenia gravis patient registry study
This study is a patient registry that tracks the experiences of people with myasthenia gravis over time. It aims to better understand the condition and improve care, using a smartphone, tablet, or computer to share information.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06064903RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T-cells for children with T-cell leukemia or lymphoma
This trial tests a personalized therapy where your child's own immune cells are modified to find and destroy cancer cells that carry a specific marker called CD7. It is for children and young adults whose T-cell leukemia or lymphoma has come back or not responded to standard treatments.
Rome, RomeAges 6 months–25 years - NCT06064149Recruiting
Heart risk study for men on hormone therapy for prostate cancer
This study looks at heart health in men with prostate cancer who are taking or will take hormone therapy (ADT) for at least 6 months. It aims to learn more about cardiovascular risks and how to manage them.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06064682Recruiting
