Study of camrelizumab plus chemo before surgery for esophageal cancer
This trial tests whether giving the immunotherapy drug camrelizumab together with chemotherapy before surgery can help people with esophageal cancer avoid needing full removal of the esophagus. It aims to preserve the esophagus while still treating the cancer effectively.

Radiation after chemo-immunotherapy and surgery for stage III lung cancer
This trial is testing whether giving radiation therapy after surgery can help prevent lung cancer from coming back in people who have already had chemotherapy and immunotherapy before surgery. It is for patients whose cancer had spread to chest lymph nodes and who still have some cancer left in those nodes after surgery.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06877403Enrolling by invitation

Shorter vs Longer HER2 Therapy for Breast Cancer with Complete Response
This trial compares 6 months versus 12 months of HER2-targeted therapy for people with HER2+ breast cancer who had a complete response after chemo and trastuzumab. The goal is to see if a shorter treatment is just as effective.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06870760Recruiting
Early blood cancer detection in Charlotte firefighters
This study looks at firefighters to find early signs of blood cancers before they become serious. It aims to learn how to catch these cancers earlier, so they can be treated sooner.

CAR-T cell therapy for CD19-positive relapsed B-cell lymphoma
This trial tests a new CAR-T cell therapy (a type of immune cell treatment) for patients with a specific kind of B-cell lymphoma that has come back or not responded to previous therapy. The treatment targets a protein called CD19 on the cancer cells to help your immune system fight the lymphoma.
Xiamen, FujianAges 18–70 - NCT06870396Enrolling by invitation
National study of adrenal tumors
This study is collecting information from people with certain adrenal gland tumors (pheochromocytoma, paraganglioma, or adrenocortical tumor). It aims to learn more about these conditions, which may help improve future care. Both living and deceased patients can be included.
Cambridge, UKAges 18 years+ - NCT06870799Recruiting
Face mask vs. camera-guided radiation for head and neck cancer
This trial compares two ways of giving radiation for head and neck cancer: with a custom face mask or with a new camera-guided system (no mask). The goal is to see which approach works better and is more comfortable for patients.
ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT06875609Recruiting
ctDNA test for skin cancer patients
This trial studies a blood test (ctDNA) in people with a type of skin cancer called cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. It aims to see if the test can help track the cancer and guide treatment decisions.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06869629Recruiting
Avoiding armpit lymph node removal in breast cancer
This trial tests whether it is safe to skip removing lymph nodes from the armpit when cancer has spread there but has been found by ultrasound. If you have breast cancer that has spread to armpit lymph nodes and are not getting chemotherapy before surgery, this study may be an option.
HelsinkiAges 18 years+ - NCT06877637Recruiting
Tracking bile duct and liver cancer during treatment
This study tracks how bile duct and liver cancers change during treatment, to help doctors find the best therapies for patients. It is for people who are newly diagnosed or starting a new treatment.
KristianstadAges 18 years+ - NCT06874933RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus anlotinib and benmelstobart for HR+/HER2- breast cancer
This trial tests adding anlotinib (a targeted therapy) and benmelstobart (an immunotherapy) to standard chemotherapy before surgery for a specific type of breast cancer. It may help shrink tumors and improve outcomes for patients whose tumors have certain markers.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06872515Recruiting
Exercise before esophageal cancer surgery
This trial tests if doing supervised exercise before esophageal cancer surgery (called prehabilitation) helps people recover better. You would follow a personalized exercise plan for at least 2 weeks before your scheduled surgery.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06869213RecruitingPhase 2
Adebrelimab plus chemo before and after surgery for esophageal cancer
This trial tests a combination of the immunotherapy drug adebrelimab (SHR-1316) and chemotherapy given before and after surgery for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma that can be removed. The goal is to see if this approach helps shrink the tumor and improves outcomes.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06879340RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new CAR-T therapy for B-cell blood cancers
This study tests a new CAR-T cell therapy called DuoCAR20.19.22-D95 for people with certain blood cancers (like lymphoma and ALL) that have come back or haven't responded to multiple treatments. It aims to see if this therapy is safe and can help shrink or control the cancer.
Westwood, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06879704Recruiting
Predicting breast cancer response to pre-surgery therapy with X-rays
This trial uses special imaging before and after treatment to see if it can predict how well triple-negative breast cancer responds to chemotherapy plus immunotherapy given before surgery. Participation could help doctors tailor future treatments.
RouenAges 18–75 - NCT06878131Recruiting
Precision-MRD: Targeted therapy study for colorectal cancer with MRD
This study looks at how well targeted therapies work for people with colorectal cancer who have minimal residual disease (MRD, tiny amounts of cancer left after treatment) detected by a blood test. It is for people who have a specific genetic change (biomarker) in their tumor and have not been treated with the targeted therapy for that biomarker before.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06868836RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a new antibody combination for advanced lung cancer after targeted therapy
