Gastric cancer screening using high-risk gene detection
This trial is testing a new way to identify people at higher risk for stomach cancer using a gene test for Helicobacter pylori. It may help detect cancer early in people aged 40 and older.
TonglingAges 40 years+ - NCT06945172Recruiting
Comparing quality of life after prostate removal vs. focal HIFU for prostate cancer
This study compares how two treatments—total prostate removal or focal HIFU (a targeted ultrasound therapy)—affect quality of life in men with favorable intermediate-risk prostate cancer who are sexually active. It aims to help patients choose the best option for their lifestyle.

Pirtobrutinib and Mosunetuzumab for relapsed follicular lymphoma
This trial tests two new drugs, pirtobrutinib and mosunetuzumab, for people with follicular lymphoma that has come back or not responded to earlier treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the cancer.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT06944314Enrolling by invitation
Doctors' views on pain during flexible cystoscopy with local anesthetic
This trial asks doctors to rate how much pain they think male patients feel during a minimally invasive bladder exam. It aims to see if doctors' estimates of pain are accurate.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT06952101Recruiting
Personalized treatment for rectal cancer to save the organ
This trial tests a personalized, step-by-step approach for rectal cancer that aims to avoid surgery and preserve the rectum. It is for patients whose tumor has shrunk significantly after chemoradiation, or who have early-stage high-risk cancer removed during a scope procedure.
Candiolo, TurinAges 18 years+ - NCT06949033RecruitingPhase 3
Cadonilimab with chemo for stomach cancer
This trial tests a new combination of immunotherapy (cadonilimab) and chemotherapy before and after surgery for a specific type of advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer. It aims to see if adding this immunotherapy helps shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Lanzhou, GansuAges 18–75 - NCT06947694RecruitingPhase 2
Testing radioimmunotherapy combinations for lung cancer with metastases
This trial explores whether combining radiation therapy with immunotherapy can trigger an immune response that shrinks tumors throughout the body (abscopal effect) in people with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to 3 to 6 other sites. It tests different patterns of these treatments to see which works best.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06951997RecruitingPhase 2
First treatment for metastatic pancreatic cancer using three drugs
This trial tests a new combination of three drugs (QL1706, chidamide, and AG) as the very first treatment for people with metastatic pancreatic cancer. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective, and it may offer a new option for those who have not had any prior therapy.
TianjinAges 18–75 - NCT06943313Enrolling by invitation
Breast cancer PET/CT imaging with a new tracer
This trial tests a new imaging agent (68Ga-pAKTi) that may help doctors see breast cancer cells with a PET/CT scan. It is for people with a specific genetic change in their tumor, and who have not yet had surgery to remove the cancer.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT06946602Recruiting
