Avoiding extra surgery in women with HER2+ or triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests whether women with HER2-positive or triple-negative breast cancer who had a complete response to chemotherapy can safely skip radiation or additional surgery. If you had a complete tumor response after chemo and had breast-conserving surgery, you may be eligible.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06934889RecruitingPhase 1
Study of investigational drugs with ERAS-801 for glioblastoma
This trial tests two new investigational drugs (ABBV-637, ABBV-155) combined with another drug (ERAS-801) for people with glioblastoma. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink the tumor or slow its growth. You need to have a specific genetic marker (EGFR amplification) in your tumor to be eligible.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06932757RecruitingPhase 2
Quisinostat after treatment for high-risk uveal melanoma
This trial tests whether taking quisinostat pills after standard treatment can lower the chance of uveal melanoma coming back in people whose original tumor had high-risk features. It is for patients who have finished their eye treatment (surgery or radiation) within the past 6 months and have no signs that the cancer has spread.
Miami, FloridaAges 19 years+ - NCT06940323Recruiting
Pregnancy study for women with chronic conditions
This study tracks pregnant women with certain chronic health conditions (like multiple sclerosis, lupus, or rheumatoid arthritis) and healthy pregnant women as a comparison group. It aims to understand how these conditions and their treatments affect pregnancy, the baby, and breast milk.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–64 - NCT06941727Recruiting
Mouth Opening and Jaw Muscle Elasticity in Oral Cancer
This study looks at how oral cancer treatment affects your ability to open your mouth and the elasticity of your jaw muscles. It may help researchers understand and prevent long-term jaw stiffness.
TaipeiAges 20–65 - NCT06940791RecruitingPhase 2
Tirabrutinib vs placebo for CNS lymphoma in remission
This trial tests whether taking the drug tirabrutinib (a pill) can help keep primary CNS lymphoma from coming back after successful initial chemotherapy. It compares the drug to a placebo (a dummy pill).
TokyoAges 18 years+ - NCT06935344Recruiting
Can genes predict ovarian cancer risk?
This study looks at whether a score based on your genes can predict the risk of epithelial ovarian cancer. It compares women newly diagnosed with this cancer to women who have never had it.
Roma, ItaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT06938581Recruiting
ERAS Recovery Steps for Breast-Conserving Surgery
This study tests a set of recovery steps called ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) for people having breast-conserving surgery. The goal is to help you heal faster, feel more comfortable, and get back to your normal life sooner.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 19 years+ - NCT06938945Recruiting
Symptom Tracking App for Liver Cancer Immunotherapy
