SBRT for limited metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether focused radiation (SBRT) can treat 1 to 3 metastases in people with colorectal cancer that has spread but is still low or intermediate risk. It may be an option if you are starting first or second line systemic therapy and your primary tumor is under control.
Negrar, VeronaAges 18 years+ - NCT06310759Recruiting
Testing urine DNA for bladder cancer detection
This trial looks at whether a large urine sample can detect bladder cancer DNA. It may help diagnose cancer without needing a cystoscopy. You can join if you are about to have a cystoscopy to check for bladder cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–100 - NCT06310902Recruiting
Single-cell study for resectable pancreatic cancer patients
This trial uses a special technique called single-cell sequencing to study pancreatic cancer cells from patients whose tumors can be surgically removed or are on the edge of being removable. Participation may help researchers understand the disease better and could guide future treatments.

Personalized ADC therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests personalized antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for advanced solid tumors. It looks for specific proteins on your tumor cells to match you with a treatment that targets them directly.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06311578RecruitingPhase 1
Study of JNJ-87704916 alone or with other drugs for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, JNJ-87704916, given alone or with other treatments for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard therapies. It may be an option if you have a tumor that can be injected and are in good overall health.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06311981RecruitingPhase 2
Carbon ion radiation for elderly lung cancer patients
This trial tests carbon ion radiotherapy for adults 75 and older with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer who cannot have surgery. The goal is to see if this precise type of radiation can treat the cancer effectively with fewer side effects.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 75 years+ - NCT06312176RecruitingPhase 3
Study of new drugs for HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer
This trial tests two new drugs (sacituzumab tirumotecan and pembrolizumab) against standard treatments for a type of advanced breast cancer that is hormone receptor positive and HER2 negative. It's for people whose cancer has worsened despite hormone therapy with a CDK4/6 inhibitor.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06313450Recruiting
Lower radiation for nose cancer after immunotherapy and chemo
This trial tests whether giving a lower dose of radiation to the main tumor is safe and effective for people with nasopharyngeal cancer (a type of nose/throat cancer) who first receive a combination of immunotherapy (toripalimab) and chemotherapy. It aims to reduce side effects while still controlling the cancer.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06312644Recruiting
Study of Ultomiris safety during pregnancy
This study looks at the safety of the medication Ultomiris when taken during pregnancy or breastfeeding. If you are pregnant and currently taking Ultomiris for an approved condition, this research will help gather information on how it affects you and your baby.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT06313190RecruitingPhase 2
SBRT plus immunotherapy for small liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of targeted radiation (SBRT) and immunotherapy for people with small liver cancers that have come back or are still present after prior treatment. It aims to see if this approach can better control the cancer without using heavy chemotherapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06313463RecruitingPhase 3
Capecitabine and camrelizumab for TNBC after chemotherapy
This trial tests if combining the chemotherapy pill capecitabine with the immunotherapy drug camrelizumab can help people with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who still have tumor tissue after initial treatment. It is for patients whose breast cancer has structures called tumor-associated lymphoid structures (TLS) and who did not achieve a complete response to neoadjuvant therapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06313203RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy with or without liver-directed treatment for bile duct cancer
This trial tests whether adding a liver-directed treatment (HAI floxuridine or SIRT) to standard chemotherapy (GemOx) is more effective for people with bile duct cancer inside the liver that cannot be removed by surgery. It may be an option for those whose cancer is only in the liver or nearby lymph nodes.
Oslo, OsloAges 18 years+ - NCT06313567RecruitingPhase 3
Metronomic capecitabine for stage III stomach cancer
