HER3 PET scan for advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This study uses a special PET/CT scan to measure a protein called HER3 in your tumors. The scan uses a radioactive version of the drug patritumab deruxtecan (HER3-DXd). This test may help doctors understand how much HER3 is in your cancer and decide if HER3-targeted therapy could work for you.

How HER2 affects brown fat in breast cancer patients
This study looks at how a protein called HER2 affects brown fat activity in women with breast cancer. Brown fat helps burn calories and may influence treatment outcomes. You will be assigned to one of two groups based on your cancer's HER2 status, and the study will measure how your brown fat responds to cold.

Supportive care trial for advanced digestive cancers
This trial tests if adding nutrition counseling, psychological support, and better nausea control to standard cancer treatment can help people with advanced digestive cancers live longer and feel better.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06223295Recruiting
Focal therapy for medium-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests a gentler treatment called focal therapy that targets only the part of the prostate with cancer. It's for men whose prostate cancer has a Gleason score of 7, low PSA, and hasn't spread outside the prostate.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 45 years+ - NCT06223659RecruitingPhase 2
EMLA cream for pain during lymphoscintigraphy for skin cancer
This trial tests whether EMLA cream can reduce pain from injections needed to map lymph nodes for certain skin cancers. If you are scheduled for lymphoscintigraphy and sentinel lymph node biopsy, you may be eligible.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–99 - NCT06223711RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab with radiation therapy for limited-spread small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of durvalumab (immunotherapy) plus radiation and chemotherapy for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has only a few distant spots. The goal is to see if this approach helps control the cancer better.
Augsburg, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT06224049RecruitingEarly Phase 1
New immune cells for Epstein-Barr virus positive T-cell lymphoma
This trial tests a new treatment using specially designed immune cells (called hNeo-T cells) to attack Epstein-Barr virus positive T-cell lymphoma that has come back or not responded to standard therapy. The treatment is personalized based on your tumor's unique markers and your tissue type (HLA).
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06224387RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, CTS2190, for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to or cannot tolerate standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective.
Luoyang, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT06224283Recruiting
Predicting desmoid tumor growth after cryoablation
This study looks at whether a special MRI analysis (radiomics) can better predict if a desmoid tumor will grow back after freezing treatment (cryoablation) compared to standard methods. It may help doctors decide on future treatment steps.
BolognaAges Any age - NCT06224855RecruitingPhase 1
Study of DXC006 for advanced solid tumors and blood cancers
This trial tests a new drug, DXC006, for people with advanced solid tumors or blood cancers like multiple myeloma and neuroblastoma that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT06224673RecruitingPhase 2
Testing ARX788 for HER2-low advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a new drug, ARX788, for people with HER2-low breast cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if ARX788 helps shrink or control the cancer.
