Turku, Southwest FinlandAges 18 years+ - NCT06220045Recruiting
Comparing two meshes for closing abdominal incisions in urgent colon surgery
This trial tests two different mesh types used to close the midline incision after urgent colorectal surgery, to see which one better prevents hernias and wound infections.
GironaAges 18 years+ - NCT06220058Recruiting
Preventing hernias after emergency colorectal surgery
This study compares two ways of closing the belly after emergency colorectal surgery to see which one better prevents hernias. If you need this type of surgery, you may be able to join.
Girona, CataloniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06220162RecruitingPhase 2
VAC Regimen for AML Not Responding to VA
This trial tests a new drug combination (VAC) for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who did not improve after standard VA treatment. It is for those who cannot have strong chemotherapy due to age or health problems.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT06220214RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study of chemo before breast cancer surgery with special mammogram
This trial tests whether a special mammogram with contrast can help doctors see how well chemotherapy is working before breast cancer surgery. It is for women who plan to have at least 4 rounds of chemo before their operation.
Stony Brook, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06220188RecruitingPhase 2
PSMA therapy for prostate cancer that has come back
This trial tests a targeted radiation therapy (PSMA-RLT) for men whose prostate cancer has returned after initial treatment, shown only by rising PSA levels. It aims to control the cancer without using hormone therapy.
ViennaAges 18–80 - NCT06220435Recruiting
Radiation therapy for very high-risk localized prostate cancer
This trial tests radiation therapy for men with very high-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread. It aims to see if targeting the tumor with radiation can help control the cancer in this highest risk group.
LundAges 18 years+ - NCT06220487RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo for Ph+ ALL without transplant
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—olverembatinib, a bispecific T-cell engager, and chidamide—for adults newly diagnosed with Ph+ ALL who cannot have a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if this treatment works well without needing intensive chemotherapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06220656Recruiting
Thyroid nodule observation and biopsy study
This study looks at how doctors talk with patients who have a thyroid nodule that may need a biopsy. It aims to improve communication and help patients feel more involved in their care.
Lebanon, New HampshireAges 18 years+ - NCT06220552RecruitingPhase 2
Low-dose radiation plus immunotherapy for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a combination of low-dose radiation, an immunotherapy drug (sintilimab), and chemotherapy (temozolomide) for people with glioblastoma that has come back. The goal is to see if this approach can help control the tumor and improve survival.
Zhuhai, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06220617Recruiting
Early detection of colorectal cancer using blood tests
This study is looking for people newly diagnosed with colorectal cancer or advanced adenoma to help find better ways to detect the disease early using advanced lab tests on blood samples.
