Comparing light-based test to standard test for leukemia detection
This study compares a new technique using light to detect leftover leukemia cells (Raman spectroscopy) with the standard method (flow cytometry) in people with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).
León, GuanajuatoAges 2–70 - NCT06291610Recruiting
Testing a decision-support tool for cancer trial choices
This study tests a tool to help patients with throat or voice box cancer decide whether to join a larger trial. It aims to make the decision process clearer and less overwhelming.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT06292286Recruiting
Second surgery for recurrent ovarian cancer that responds to platinum
This trial tests whether having a second surgery after initial treatment can help people with ovarian cancer that came back but still responds to platinum-based chemotherapy. It may offer another option to remove remaining tumors and delay further treatments.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT06292689RecruitingPhase 2
Cardunolizumab for advanced vulvar or vaginal cancer
This study is testing a new drug called cardunolizumab for people with advanced vulvar or vaginal cancer that has come back or spread. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06293014RecruitingPhase 2
TAS-102 with bevacizumab for colorectal cancer maintenance
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, TAS-102 and bevacizumab, as a follow-up maintenance treatment for people with advanced colorectal cancer. The goal is to see if this treatment can keep the cancer from growing after initial chemotherapy and bevacizumab therapy.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT06292897Recruiting
Obesity and prostate cancer tissue study
This study looks at how obesity might affect prostate cancer growth. It uses tissue samples to understand the role of certain metabolites in the tumor, which could lead to better treatments.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06293625RecruitingPhase 3
Chemotherapy before surgery for colon cancer in older adults
This trial tests whether giving 6 weeks of chemotherapy (FOLFOX) before surgery can help people aged 70 and older with locally advanced colon cancer. It aims to make treatment safer and more effective for older adults.
DijonAges 70 years+ - NCT06293677RecruitingPhase 4
Antibiotic Dosing for Kids With Cancer and Fever
This study tests whether adjusting antibiotic doses based on how fast your kidneys clear the medicine can better treat infections in children with cancer who have a fever and low white blood cells (neutropenia). It aims to improve recovery and reduce side effects.
Lausanne, Canton of VaudAges 2 months–18 years - NCT06294548RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Valemetostat plus atezolizumab and bevacizumab for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—valemetostat, atezolizumab, and bevacizumab—for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) who have not had systemic treatment before. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow disease progression.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06294574Recruiting
Better breast biopsy marker retrieval in surgery
This trial compares two types of breast biopsy markers to see which one is easier for surgeons to find and remove during surgery. It may help make your surgery more precise and reduce the chance of leaving marker behind.
