Venetoclax and revumenib for AML with residual disease
This trial tests two targeted drugs, venetoclax and revumenib, for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has a specific change in the NPM1, KMT2A, or NUP98 genes and has minimal residual disease (MRD) after treatment.

Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06286267Recruiting
AI tool for diagnosing breast phyllodes tumors
This trial uses an artificial intelligence system to help doctors more accurately diagnose and predict the outcome of breast phyllodes tumors, which are rare breast growths. It aims to improve how these tumors are identified and managed.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT06286631Recruiting
Predicting lymph node spread in thyroid cancer with a new scale
This trial is testing a new scale to predict if thyroid cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes. It may help doctors decide on the best treatment for you.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 16–80 - NCT06287034Recruiting
Free flap surgery after total laryngectomy for laryngeal cancer
This trial tests whether using a free or pedicled tissue flap during total laryngectomy reduces the risk of a pharyngocutaneous fistula (an abnormal opening between the throat and skin). It is for people whose laryngeal cancer came back after radiation or chemoradiation.
Rome, RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT06287528RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T‑cell therapy with IL‑18 for returning B‑cell leukemia
This trial tests a new type of CAR T‑cell therapy that also makes an immune‑boosting protein called IL‑18. It is for people with B‑cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has come back or not gone away after standard treatments.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 17 years+ - NCT06287229RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T therapy for B-cell ALL after initial treatment
This trial tests whether a special immune cell therapy (brexucabtagene autoleucel, or CAR T therapy) can help people with B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) after reducing the number of leukemia cells with a chemo-immunotherapy combination. It is for patients whose cancer has returned or is hard to treat, or for those newly diagnosed with a high-risk form of ALL.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06287294Recruiting
Taste problems and dry mouth in advanced cancer
This study looks at taste problems in people with advanced cancer who also have a dry mouth. It aims to understand the link between dry mouth and taste changes to help improve symptom management.
DublinAges 18 years+ - NCT06287398RecruitingPhase 2
Epcoritamab and chemo before stem cell transplant for relapsed large B-cell lymphoma
This trial tests a combination of a new immunotherapy drug called epcoritamab with chemotherapy, followed by a stem cell transplant and more epcoritamab, for people whose large B-cell lymphoma has returned after initial treatment. The goal is to see if this approach can help more people achieve remission and stay in remission.
Melbourne, VictoriaAges 18 years+ - NCT06287541Recruiting
Do you need a second bladder surgery after a negative urine test?
This study looks at whether a second bladder surgery is still needed for people with high-risk bladder cancer who had a negative urine test after their first surgery.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06287814Recruiting
Blood test to detect leftover cancer DNA in colorectal cancer patients
This study uses a simple blood test (liquid biopsy) to look for tiny bits of tumor DNA remaining after colorectal cancer surgery. It aims to see if the test can help predict whether the cancer will come back, especially in people with stage III cancer who will receive chemotherapy.
Montpellier, HéraultAges 18 years+ - NCT06287671Recruiting
Colorectal Surgery Tissue Study for Better Understanding of Disease
This study is collecting tissue samples from people having surgery on their colon or rectum to better understand colorectal diseases. It may help researchers learn more about conditions like cancer, polyps, or inflammatory bowel disease.
HillerødAges 18 years+ - NCT06287723Recruiting
Blood test for cancer DNA after liver surgery in colorectal cancer
This study uses a simple blood test (liquid biopsy) to look for tiny bits of cancer DNA after surgery for colorectal cancer that spread to the liver. It aims to see if this test can find cancer earlier than standard scans, which may help guide future treatment decisions.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT06287749Recruiting
Liquid biopsy for monitoring pancreatic cancer after surgery
This trial is testing a blood test (liquid biopsy) to look for tiny traces of cancer DNA after surgery for pancreatic cancer. It may help doctors understand if the cancer is likely to come back.

Comparing chemoimmunotherapy vs chemoradiation for advanced cervical cancer before surgery
This trial tests whether a combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) before surgery works better than standard chemoradiation for locally advanced cervical cancer. It may help shrink tumors more effectively.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–70 - NCT06288360RecruitingPhase 2
