Augmented reality education for cancer wound care nurses
This trial tests whether using augmented reality (a technology that adds digital information to what you see) can help nurses learn how to manage cancerous wounds that have a bad odor or discharge. If you are an oncology nurse at a teaching hospital in northern Taiwan, you may be able to join and learn new ways to care for these wounds.

Targeted drug for recurrent brain cancer with STAT3 marker
This trial tests a new drug called ACT001 for people with recurrent glioblastoma (a type of brain cancer) whose tumors have a specific marker (STAT3-high). The drug targets that marker to try to stop the tumor from growing.
SingaporeAges 21 years+ - NCT06891209Recruiting
Life after partial bladder removal
This study looks at how people's quality of life and bladder function are affected after surgery to remove part of the bladder (partial cystectomy). It compares these results to people who had their entire bladder removed. The goal is to understand if sparing part of the bladder leads to better outcomes.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06899152Recruiting
New tests to track liver health during radiation for liver cancer
This study tests new blood tests and MRI scans to see how well your liver works during radiation therapy for liver cancer. It may help doctors better plan treatment and monitor your liver health.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06893380Recruiting
Drug combo plus immunotherapy for advanced bile duct cancer
This study tests a combination of three drugs (gemcitabine, cisplatin, nab-paclitaxel) plus an immunotherapy (tislelizumab) for people with advanced biliary tract cancer who haven't had treatment yet. The goal is to see if this cocktail shrinks tumors better than standard care.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 19 years+ - NCT06897046RecruitingPhase 2
Study of Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab for resectable lung cancer
This trial tests two immunotherapy drugs (iparomlimab and tuvonralimab) before and after surgery for people with a certain type of lung cancer that can be removed. It aims to see if this treatment helps improve outcomes.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06825546RecruitingPhase 2
Icaritin plus chemo for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new combination of a plant-based drug (icaritin) and two chemotherapy drugs (AG) for people with advanced pancreatic cancer who have not had treatment before. The goal is to see if the combination works better than chemotherapy alone.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT05549102Recruiting
CBT therapy study for anxiety and brain circuit changes
This trial studies whether a specific form of talk therapy (CBT) changes brain activity in people with moderate anxiety. It may help your care team understand what works best and how brain “circuits” respond to treatment.
LondonAges 18–64 - NCT05989542RecruitingPhase 3
Study of vebreltinib for MET-mutated lung cancer
This study tests a new targeted pill (vebreltinib) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific gene change (MET exon 14 mutation). It is for people who have not had much or any prior treatment. The goal is to see if this medicine can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT05896865Recruiting
Personalized breast cancer radiation based on tumor biology
This trial studies whether adjusting radiation dose using how the tumor behaves can improve outcomes for people with locally advanced breast cancer that has spread to certain nearby lymph nodes. It may help deliver the right radiation intensity while avoiding unnecessary exposure.
