Tamoxifen to prevent cancer in pancreatic cysts
This trial tests whether tamoxifen, a hormone-blocking pill, can prevent pancreatic cysts from turning into cancer in people who are not having surgery to remove the cyst right away.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 19 years+ - NCT06321003Recruiting
Testing AI to detect early oral cancer with light scans
This trial uses a special light-based scanner (OCT) and artificial intelligence to help diagnose early signs of mouth cancer or precancer. It aims to see if this combination can make diagnosis easier and more accurate.
PalermoAges 18–99 - NCT06321484RecruitingPhase 1
NK cell therapy for recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian cancer
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (CIML NK cells) given directly into the abdomen for women with ovarian cancer that has come back and is now resistant to standard platinum chemotherapy. The goal is to see if these specially trained cells can fight the cancer safely.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT06321939Recruiting
Tracking EBV DNA in Blood for Nasopharyngeal Cancer
This trial studies whether tracking levels of Epstein-Barr virus DNA in your blood can help guide treatment for non-metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer. You would get standard radiation and maybe chemotherapy, with extra blood tests to see how the virus levels change.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT06321653Recruiting
Lymphedema after radiation for early breast cancer with 1-2 positive nodes
This trial aims to see if a shorter course of radiation after breast-conserving surgery affects arm swelling (lymphedema) in people with early breast cancer that has spread to 1 or 2 nearby lymph nodes. The goal is to learn if this approach is safe and effective.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06321991RecruitingPhase 2
Shrinking palm lumps in Dupuytren disease
This study tests a treatment for people with Dupuytren disease who have a lump (nodule) in their palm but no finger bending yet. It aims to see if the lump can shrink and prevent the disease from getting worse.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT06322329Recruiting
RealMove Lung: Tracking tumor motion with MRI
This study uses a special MRI scan to measure how your lung tumor moves during breathing. The information may help doctors plan more precise radiation treatment (SBRT) for lung cancers located in the lower part of the lung.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT06323239RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus chemo and immunotherapy for advanced nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two types of radiation therapy (standard SBRT and low-dose radiation) along with chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 antibody) for people whose nasopharyngeal cancer has come back or spread. The goal is to see if this combination can better control the cancer.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06322888Recruiting
Exercise study for women with dense breasts
This trial tests if resistance and aerobic exercise can help prevent breast cancer in women with dense breast tissue. You would join a supervised exercise program to see if it reduces your risk.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–59 - NCT06323369RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab plus chemo before surgery vs surgery alone for head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether giving tislelizumab (an immunotherapy) with chemotherapy before surgery works better than surgery alone for people with head and neck cancer that has not spread to lymph nodes. It's for cancers that can be removed with surgery, and the goal is to see if the pre-surgery treatment improves outcomes.
Guangzhou, YuexiuAges 18–75 - NCT06323473RecruitingPhase 2
Maitake mushroom supplement for people with cancer
This trial tests whether a maitake mushroom supplement can help people receiving chemotherapy or CDK4/6 inhibitors for a solid tumor cancer. It is open to adults being treated in Ontario, Canada.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06323525RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Modified CAR-T cell therapy for relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphoma
This trial tests a new type of CAR-T cell therapy for people with certain B-cell lymphomas that have come back or not responded to treatment. The CAR-T cells are made from a donor and are genetically edited to possibly work better and last longer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06323460RecruitingPhase 2
Less Radiation for HPV Throat Cancer Guided by a Blood Test
This study tests a way to use less radiation for HPV-related throat cancer. Doctors will adjust your treatment based on a simple blood test that tracks cancer DNA, so you may get only the treatment you need.
