It aims to find a new targeted treatment option for triple-negative or ER-low breast cancer.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06099912Recruiting
Personalized frailty-based treatment for older adults with new multiple myeloma
This trial tests a personalized treatment approach for people aged 65 and older with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. The goal is to tailor therapy based on each patient's level of frailty, which could help improve outcomes and reduce side effects.
Changchun, JilinAges 65 years+ - NCT06100328Recruiting
Cardiac tumor study tracking health outcomes
This study looks at people with different types of heart tumors to better understand their risks and outcomes. It aims to improve how doctors predict and manage future health events.

This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (PD-1) and chemotherapy for people with advanced head and neck cancers that are poorly differentiated. The goal is to see if the combination helps shrink tumors before possible surgery or radiation.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06101069Recruiting
New MRI scan to tell tumor from radiation damage
This study tests a special MRI technique to better distinguish between tumor regrowth and radiation-related changes in people with brain tumors. If you've had radiation for a brain tumor and now have suspicious changes, this scan might help guide your next steps.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–60 - NCT06101381RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Car-T cell therapy for relapsed or refractory leukemia and lymphoma
This trial tests whether a new immune therapy (CAR-T cells) can treat certain types of blood cancers that have come back or not responded to standard treatments. It aims to help people with aggressive B-cell lymphoma or acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that hasn't been controlled by other therapies.
Campinas, São PauloAges 3–70 - NCT06102395RecruitingPhase 3
Pembrolizumab plus chemo before surgery for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy drug) to standard chemotherapy before surgery can help people with advanced head and neck cancer. It aims to see if the combination is more effective than chemotherapy alone.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06102057RecruitingPhase 2
PET-guided small volume chemoradiation with immunotherapy for lung cancer
This trial tests a new combination of chemotherapy, radiation, and immunotherapy (durvalumab) for people with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. The goal is to see if giving a smaller, more focused radiation dose can be just as effective with fewer side effects.
DresdenAges 18 years+ - NCT06102330Recruiting
Helping parents decide about home breathing machines
This study helps parents like you who are deciding whether their child should have a breathing machine at home. You'll use a website or get support by phone to learn about your options and share what matters most to your family, so doctors and families can make better choices together.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06102525RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing RZ-001 with valganciclovir for glioblastoma
This trial tests a new treatment called RZ-001 combined with an antiviral drug (valganciclovir) for people with glioblastoma, a serious brain tumor. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and can help shrink or slow the tumor.
IncheonAges 18 years+ - NCT06102772Recruiting
Combination immunotherapy and targeted therapy for advanced gastric cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—adebrelimab (an immunotherapy), fruquintinib (a targeted therapy to cut off blood supply to the tumor), and a chemotherapy (paclitaxel or albumin-bound paclitaxel)—in people with advanced stomach/gastric cancer whose disease has worsened after one prior chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this new mix can help control the cancer.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06102759Recruiting
Study of adebrelimab and fruquintinib plus chemo for advanced stomach cancer after PD-1 failure
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (adebrelimab and fruquintinib) plus chemotherapy (paclitaxel or albumin-bound paclitaxel) for people with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer whose disease progressed after prior PD-1 antibody treatment.
