Weight lifting program for breast cancer fatigue
This trial tests whether a 3-month resistance exercise program (like lifting weights) can help reduce fatigue in women who have had breast cancer. You may be eligible if you were diagnosed with non-metastatic breast cancer 1-3 years ago and feel tired, even if only a little.
Morgantown, West VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06959589Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Combination therapy for KRAS G12C mutated colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination (IBI351, cetuximab, and FOLFIRI) as first treatment or as a second treatment after standard chemotherapy for people with KRAS G12C mutated colorectal cancer that has spread. The goal is to see if it works well and is safe.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06962137RecruitingPhase 2
Zolbetuximab plus two chemos for CLDN18.2-positive stomach cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (zolbetuximab, paclitaxel, and ramucirumab) for people with advanced stomach or esophagus cancer that has a specific protein called CLDN18.2. It may be an option if you've already had one standard treatment.
AntwerpAges 18 years+ - NCT06957314Recruiting
Hospital-at-home for people receiving Tarlatamab
This study tests giving hospital-type care at home for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer who are receiving the drug Tarlatamab. It aims to see if patients can safely receive their treatment at home instead of in the hospital.

Shorter versus longer whole breast radiation for early-stage breast cancer
This trial compares a 5-day course of whole breast radiation plus a boost to the standard 9-day course for people with early-stage breast cancer who have certain risk factors, such as high-grade tumors or younger age. The goal is to see if the shorter treatment is just as safe and effective.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT06958328RecruitingPhase 3
Higher dose radiation for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests whether giving a higher dose of radiation to the pancreas is safe and effective for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer who have already had chemotherapy without progression.
