DouliuAges 25 years+ - NCT06970912RecruitingPhase 2
ctDNA-Guided Reduced Chemo in HR+/HER2- Breast Cancer
This study is testing whether using a ctDNA blood test can help doctors decide if patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer can safely receive less intensive chemotherapy after surgery. The goal is to reduce side effects while still preventing the cancer from coming back.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06967610RecruitingPhase 2
Pirtobrutinib, venetoclax, and obinutuzumab for recurrent CLL/SLL
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (pirtobrutinib, venetoclax, and obinutuzumab) given for a limited time to people whose CLL/SLL has come back after prior treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can control the cancer and possibly allow a treatment-free period.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06971991Recruiting
Measuring liver blood flow during embolization
This study measures blood flow in the liver during a procedure called transarterial embolization, which blocks blood vessels to treat tumors. It may help doctors understand how to better plan treatments for liver conditions.
Madison, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT06963060Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Gem+Nab-P+LEN+TIS for Advanced Unresectable BTC (GALENT-BT)
This trial tests a combination of four drugs (gemcitabine, nab-paclitaxel, lenvatinib, and tislelizumab) for people with advanced bile duct or gallbladder cancer that cannot be removed by surgery and has not been treated before.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06964438Recruiting
Post-surgery electrical muscle stimulation study for colorectal or stomach cancer
This trial tests if using a mild electrical device on your legs after surgery can help you recover faster. It is for people with colorectal or stomach cancer who are having curative abdominal surgery.
Derby, DerbyshireAges 18 years+ - NCT06964568RecruitingPhase 3
Chemoradiation followed by immunotherapy for esophageal cancer
This trial tests a treatment for locally advanced esophageal cancer. You'll receive chemoradiation (chemo plus radiation) followed by a maintenance drug (a PD-1 inhibitor) to help prevent the cancer from coming back.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT06970119RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of INR102 for advanced prostate cancer (Phase 1/2)
This trial tests a new investigational drug called INR102 for prostate cancer that has spread and stopped responding to standard treatments. It's given by injection, and the study will check if it's safe and if it can shrink or slow the cancer.
Wuxi, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06969833Recruiting
Study of Ovarian, Peritoneal, or Fallopian Tube Cancer
This study will collect medical information from people with advanced ovarian, peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer. The goal is to learn more about these cancers and improve future treatments.
