Surgery plus hormone therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests if removing the prostate and giving strong hormone therapy works better than hormone therapy alone for men whose prostate cancer has spread. It aims to improve how long patients live without the cancer worsening.

Online advance care planning for cancer patients
This trial tests an online tool that helps you plan your future medical care in advance. It is designed for people with cancer who are being treated at certain hospitals in the Netherlands.

Early Heart Check After CAR-T Cell Treatment
This study checks your heart function early after CAR-T cell cancer treatment. It uses a quick heart ultrasound to look for changes soon after the infusion.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06351475Recruiting
Albumin during surgery for advanced cancer in the abdomen
This trial tests whether adding a protein called albumin to standard fluids given during surgery helps patients with advanced cancer in the abdomen (from the ovaries, uterus, or digestive system) recover better. You would receive either the usual fluids or fluids plus albumin during your operation.

Long-term safety study of bomedemstat for blood cancers
This trial checks the long-term safety and continued benefits of bomedemstat for people with certain blood cancers (like essential thrombocythemia and polycythemia vera) who have already been doing well on the drug in an earlier study.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06351904RecruitingPhase 1
Testing RAG-01 for bladder cancer that returned after BCG treatment
This trial tests a new drug, RAG-01, for people with a type of bladder cancer called non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) that has come back after BCG therapy. The drug is given through a catheter into the bladder, and the study aims to see if it can help control the cancer.
St Leonards, New South WalesAges 18–75 - NCT06352008RecruitingPhase 2
Anlotinib for lung cancer patients with incomplete response after chemo-immunotherapy
This trial tests if anlotinib (a targeted therapy) can help prevent lung cancer from returning after surgery for patients whose tumors did not completely disappear after chemotherapy plus immunotherapy before surgery.
TianjinAges 18 years+ - NCT06352242Recruiting
Study of immune activity after CAR-T therapy for lymphoma
This study looks at a biological process called trogocytosis (when immune cells swap pieces of their outer coating) to see if it can help predict how well CAR-T cell therapy works for people with a type of lymphoma called diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT06352710Recruiting
Tracking recovery after brain or spine surgery
This study uses a smartphone app to track how you recover after brain or spine surgery. It helps doctors understand how side effects affect your daily life, so they can improve care.
Sankt Gallen, St.GallenAges 18 years+ - NCT06353321Recruiting
PSMA-PET imaging for guiding radiation therapy in prostate cancer
This study tests a new way to use a PSMA-PET scan (a special imaging test that finds prostate cancer cells) to guide a type of radiation treatment called BgRT. It is for men with prostate cancer who are already getting a PSMA-PET scan as part of their regular care.
Dallas, TexasAges Any age - NCT06353126RecruitingPhase 4
Chemoembolization before liver transplant for liver cancer
This trial tests whether using chemotherapy beads delivered directly to the liver (DEB-TACE) before a living donor liver transplant improves outcomes for people with liver cancer. If you have a tumor in the right side of the liver that fits certain size and number limits, and you are already scheduled for a transplant, this study may be an option.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06353386RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Opevesostat combinations for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests a new drug called opevesostat, alone or combined with other treatments, for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and stopped responding to hormone therapy. It aims to see if it can help control the cancer.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06353646Recruiting
XH001 plus immunotherapy and chemotherapy after pancreatic cancer surgery
This trial studies a new treatment called XH001 combined with standard immunotherapy and chemotherapy for people whose pancreatic cancer has been surgically removed. The goal is to see if this combination helps prevent the cancer from coming back.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06353685RecruitingPhase 2
Less radiation after surgery for oral cancer with good response
This trial is testing whether giving less radiation after surgery is safe and effective for people with oral cancer whose surgery results were very good (no cancer cells or very few left). It aims to reduce side effects while still preventing cancer from coming back.
GuangzhouAges 18–80 - NCT06353906RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus immunotherapy for advanced penile cancer
This trial tests a combination of two chemotherapy drugs (carboplatin and paclitaxel) plus the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for penile cancer that has spread to nearby lymph nodes. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink or control the cancer before or after surgery.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT06354140RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab plus S-1 for esophageal cancer after surgery
This trial tests a combination of the immunotherapy drug tislelizumab and the chemotherapy drug S-1 for people with a specific type of esophageal cancer that still has some cancer cells in the main tumor but no cancer in lymph nodes after surgery. The goal is to see if this treatment can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06354218RecruitingPhase 2
Serplulimab plus chemoradiation for older adults with esophageal cancer
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug called serplulimab combined with standard chemotherapy and radiation for older adults with locally advanced esophageal cancer. It aims to see if this combination can help shrink tumors and improve outcomes without prior cancer treatment.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 75 years+ - NCT06354530RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of pre-surgery therapy for advanced esophageal cancer
