Low-dose capecitabine for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a lower dose of the chemotherapy drug capecitabine in people with advanced breast cancer that is HER2 negative. It aims to see if this gentler dose works well, especially for older or frailer patients who may have more difficulty with standard treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 60 years+ - NCT06105801RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two biopsy methods for lung cancer genetic testing
This study compares two ways to get a larger tissue sample from lymph nodes in the chest after a first small test confirmed cancer. The goal is to see which method provides better material for detailed genetic testing (next generation sequencing) that can guide treatment choices.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06106360Recruiting
Using an Apple Watch and iPhone to monitor chemo patients at home
This study tests whether using an Apple Watch and a health app on your iPhone can help monitor how you're doing during chemotherapy. Doctors want to see if tracking your health at home can catch problems early and keep you safer.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06106529RecruitingPhase 3
Reducing hot flashes in women on hormone therapy for breast cancer
This trial tests a new approach to reduce hot flashes in women taking hormone therapy for breast cancer. You may be able to join if you have at least 14 hot flashes a week and are not taking certain other treatments.
Delft, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06107608Recruiting
Scan for tumors in lung cancer patients on immunotherapy
This study uses a special type of PET scan to look at specific cells in non-small cell lung cancer tumors that might help doctors understand how well immunotherapy treatments are working. If you are about to start immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer, you may be able to join.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06107686RecruitingPhase 2
YL202 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called YL202 for people with advanced solid tumors (cancers that have spread or cannot be removed). It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth. You may be able to join if you have certain types of cancer, have not had a previous HER3 treatment, and can provide a tumor sample.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT06107673RecruitingPhase 2
Pill vs chemo before breast cancer surgery
This study compares taking a daily pill (dalpiciclib with hormone therapy) versus standard chemotherapy before breast cancer surgery. It's for postmenopausal women with a common type of early breast cancer that is strongly hormone-receptor positive and HER2-negative.
