This trial tests a new targeted therapy (DZD9008) combined with a drug that blocks blood vessel growth (bevacizumab) for people with a specific type of advanced lung cancer (EGFR mutation). The goal is to see if this combination works better than current treatments.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06276465RecruitingPhase 3
Darolutamide with or without radiation for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests whether adding radiation therapy to the drug darolutamide helps men with a specific type of advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy and has spread to a few spots seen on special scans. The study aims to find the best way to control the cancer while keeping side effects manageable.
LorientAges 18 years+ - NCT06277050RecruitingPhase 3
Toripalimab and capecitabine after chemo-radiation for high-risk nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug toripalimab to the chemotherapy pill capecitabine after standard treatment helps prevent nasopharyngeal cancer from coming back. It is for people with high-risk features who have already had chemo and radiation.
Ganzhou, JiangxiAges 18–70 - NCT06276868RecruitingPhase 2
Darsilide plus hormone therapy and double antibody for breast cancer
This trial tests if adding a new drug (darsilide) to standard hormone therapy and two antibodies (trastuzumab and pertuzumab) before surgery can improve outcomes for women with HR-positive, HER2-positive breast cancer that hasn't spread.
Henan, HenanAges 18–70 - NCT06277024Recruiting
Combination therapy for advanced HER2-negative stomach cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (candenizumab), a targeted therapy (lenvatinib), and chemotherapy (SOX regimen) for advanced HER2-negative stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has not been treated before. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and works better than standard treatments.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT06277154RecruitingPhase 2
MASCT-I plus chemo for first-line advanced soft tissue sarcoma
This trial tests a new immune cell therapy (MASCT-I) combined with standard chemotherapy (doxorubicin and ifosfamide) for people with advanced soft tissue sarcoma who have not had prior chemotherapy or targeted therapy. The goal is to see if the combination works better than chemo alone.
GuangzhouAges 18–70 - NCT06277180Recruiting
PET scan guided surgery for medullary thyroid cancer
This trial uses a special PET scan to help guide surgery for medullary thyroid cancer (MTC). The goal is to see if this scan can make surgery more precise.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06277531Recruiting
Testing bile DNA to diagnose unclear bile duct strictures
