Kingswood, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT06306755Recruiting
Risk-based screening for esophageal and gastric cancer
This study tests a new way of screening for esophagus and stomach cancer by using a risk-based approach. It aims to see if this works better than standard screening, and is offered to people in certain villages in China.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 50–69 - NCT06306612Recruiting
Surgery plus hormone therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests whether removing the prostate (surgery) plus standard hormone therapy and chemotherapy can help men whose prostate cancer has spread to many places in the body. It is for men who have not yet had treatment for their cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT06307314Recruiting
Can SAA1 predict mouth sores from radiation therapy?
This study is looking at a blood marker called SAA1 to see if it can predict how severe mouth sores (oral mucositis) will be after radiation therapy. If you have head and neck cancer and are about to get radiation, this trial may help answer questions about side effects.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06307080Recruiting
Combined ablation and immunotherapy for pancreatic cancer with liver spread
This study tests a new treatment combining tumor destruction with heat/cold (ablation) and an immunotherapy drug (PD-1) for people whose pancreatic cancer has spread to the liver. The goal is to help the immune system fight the cancer better.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06306924Recruiting
Metastatic cancer radiation therapy registry study
This study is a registry that collects information from people with cancer that has spread who are receiving radiation therapy as part of their usual care. By joining, you help researchers learn more about how radiation works in this setting.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06307054RecruitingPhase 1
CLL-1 CAR-NK cells for relapsed or refractory AML
This trial tests a therapy made from your own immune cells, engineered to target a marker called CLL-1 on leukemia cells, for people whose AML has come back or hasn't responded to standard treatments.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06307249RecruitingPhase 1
Precision therapy for solid tumors targeting CDK4/6 and VEGF
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs for advanced solid tumors like colorectal, lung, breast, and genitourinary cancers. The goal is to see if blocking certain proteins and a long RNA molecule can slow tumor growth.
Tripoli, North LebanonAges 18 years+ - NCT06307327Recruiting
Comparing new and old ways to classify mouth sores from radiation
This study compares a new way of classifying radiation-induced mouth sores (mucositis) with the traditional method. It aims to better understand and manage these painful sores in people receiving radiation for head and neck cancer.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06307548RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Image-guided surgery and light therapy for colorectal cancer
This trial tests a special dye that helps surgeons see tumors more clearly during surgery, followed by a light therapy to destroy any remaining cancer cells. It is for people with advanced or returning colorectal cancer who are already scheduled for surgery.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06307886Recruiting
Uterine manipulator in endometrial cancer surgery
This trial compares survival rates for patients with early-stage endometrial cancer who have laparoscopic hysterectomy with or without a uterine manipulator (a tool used during surgery).
