A new combination therapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new combination of three drugs (fruquintinib, camrelizumab, and capecitabine) for people with colorectal cancer that has spread or cannot be removed and has stopped responding to a standard first chemotherapy. It is for those whose cancer progressed after a specific first treatment called FOLFOXIRI.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06148298Recruiting
Using a blood test to find pancreatic cancer
This study is testing a new blood test that looks for DNA changes to help find pancreatic cancer. It may lead to a way to find cancer earlier.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06149130RecruitingPhase 2
Testing adebrelimab, dalpiciclib, and hormone therapy for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of a new immunotherapy drug (adebrelimab) with a targeted pill (dalpiciclib) and standard hormone therapy for women with advanced hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative breast cancer. It may help patients who have not yet had certain prior treatments, aiming to slow the cancer's growth.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06149546Recruiting
Nutrition therapy for people having chemotherapy for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests whether a special nutrition program can help people with pancreatic cancer who are getting chemotherapy before surgery. The program includes diet changes, supplements, and exercise support to see if it improves strength, weight, and overall well-being.
Dublin, LeinsterAges 18 years+ - NCT06149637Recruiting
