Anti-EGFR for left-sided, RAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether anti-EGFR therapy works better for people with left-sided colorectal cancer that has spread, whose tumors do not have certain gene mutations (RAS wild-type). It is for those who have not yet had treatment for metastatic disease.
MoscowAges 18–99 - NCT06227117RecruitingPhase 2
Study of DV and Toripalimab before surgery for HER2-low breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (DV and Toripalimab) with chemotherapy before surgery for a specific type of breast cancer (HER2-low, HR-negative) that has not spread too far. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT06227338Recruiting
Testing a dye to see breast cancer during surgery
This trial uses a special dye called ICG that makes cancer glow under a special camera during breast cancer surgery. Doctors want to find the best time to give the dye so they can see the cancer clearly and remove all of it in one operation.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06227728Recruiting
Predicting immunotherapy response in advanced cancer
This study uses blood and tumor samples to find markers that predict whether immunotherapy will work for people with stage IV cancer. The goal is to better match treatments to patients.
Ho Chi Minh City, Hồ Chí MinhAges 18–80 - NCT06228066RecruitingPhase 2
Lurbinectedin with or without avelumab for small cell bladder cancer
This clinical trial tests a drug called lurbinectedin, given alone or with avelumab (an immunotherapy), for people with small cell bladder cancer or similar high-grade neuroendocrine tumors that have spread. The goal is to see if combining these drugs helps shrink or control the cancer better.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06228079RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo-immunotherapy after surgery for early reoccurring nasopharyngeal cancer
This study looks at whether adding chemo-immunotherapy after surgery is better than surgery alone for patients whose nasopharyngeal cancer has returned but is still in early stages. It may help prevent the cancer from coming back again.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06228482RecruitingPhase 1
Targeted radioactive therapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new targeted radioactive drug that seeks out a specific marker on lung cancer cells. It first uses a low-dose imaging scan to see if the cancer cells have this marker, then gives a higher-dose treatment to destroy those cells.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06228326RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of KB707 for advanced cancers affecting the lungs
This trial tests a new medicine called KB707 for people with advanced cancers that affect the lungs. It uses a virus to deliver a gene that may help your immune system fight the tumor. The study is especially looking at people with lung cancer (NSCLC) or other solid tumors that have spread to the lungs and haven't responded to standard treatments.
Dothan, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06228599Recruiting
Targeted therapy for pancreatic cancer with high risk of return
This trial tests if personalized medicines, chosen based on the genetic profile of your tumor, can help prevent pancreatic cancer from coming back after surgery. It is for people who have had their pancreatic tumor removed but have features that suggest a higher chance of recurrence.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT06228794Recruiting
CPC blood test to predict multiple myeloma outcomes
This trial is studying a new blood test that measures circulating plasma cells (CPCs) to help predict how multiple myeloma may progress. It is for people newly diagnosed with multiple myeloma who have not yet started treatment.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–80 - NCT06229041RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo and radiation with or without immunotherapy for high-risk rectal cancer
This trial tests if adding immunotherapy to standard chemotherapy and radiation before surgery helps shrink high-risk rectal cancer and prevent it from coming back. You may be a good fit if you have a specific type of advanced rectal cancer that hasn't spread to other parts of your body.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06229483RecruitingPhase 3
Does tranexamic acid reduce bleeding during brain tumor surgery?
This study tests whether a medication called tranexamic acid (TXA) given during brain tumor surgery can reduce bleeding. If you are having a standard craniotomy for a tumor and don’t have certain health risks, you may be eligible.
Halifax, Nova ScotiaAges 18–80 - NCT06229340RecruitingPhase 2
Two drug combinations for advanced cancer with RAS mutations
This trial tests two different treatment combinations (leflunomide alone or with MEK inhibitor and hydroxychloroquine) in people with advanced cancer that has a RAS mutation and has not responded to at least two prior therapies.
Saint PetersburgAges 18–85 - NCT06229522Recruiting
Organoids to personalize ovarian cancer treatment
This study uses lab-grown tumor models (organoids) from your tissue or fluid sample to find the best treatment for your ovarian cancer.
Aviano, PordenoneAges 18 years+ - NCT06229860Recruiting
Personality and CML medication adherence study
This study looks at how a person's personality might affect how well they take their CML medication. It's for people with chronic phase CML who are taking certain targeted therapy pills (imatinib, dasatinib, bosutinib, or nilotinib).
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06230185Recruiting
Blood test to monitor treatment response in triple-negative breast cancer
This trial is testing whether a blood test can track how well chemotherapy is working in people with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer. You would provide blood samples before and during treatment, and the results may help your doctor understand your response better.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06230055RecruitingPhase 4
Chemotherapy for breast cancer that has spread to the spinal fluid
This trial tests a chemotherapy drug given directly into the spinal fluid for people with HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain and spinal cord (called leptomeningeal metastasis). It may help when standard treatments have stopped working or caused too many side effects.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06230445RecruitingPhase 3
Digital health app for lung cancer management
This trial tests a digital health app to help manage the entire treatment process for lung cancer. It may assist patients who are already undergoing or have completed treatments like surgery or chemotherapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06230549Recruiting
