Liver cancer trial: HAIC plus immunotherapy and anti-angiogenesis
This trial tests a combination of liver-directed chemotherapy (HAIC), an immunotherapy drug (sintilimab), and a drug that blocks blood vessel growth (bevacizumab biosimilar) for advanced liver cancer that hasn't been treated with systemic therapy before. The goal is to see if this triple therapy can shrink or control the cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06865040Recruiting
Inhaled treatment before lung cancer surgery to prevent lung complications
This trial tests whether giving an inhaled medication before lung cancer surgery helps prevent breathing problems after the operation. It is for people whose lung function is lower than normal, which puts them at higher risk for complications after surgery.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT06858449Recruiting
Exercise and protein during chemo for breast cancer
This study tests whether adding resistance training (like lifting weights) along with a protein shake after workouts can help women with breast cancer maintain muscle and bone health while they receive chemotherapy before surgery.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 20–89 - NCT06858163Recruiting
Coping and attachment in pediatric cancer
This study looks at how parents and children cope with pediatric cancer. It involves questionnaires for both you and your child, and aims to understand how your relationship affects coping.
Monza, Monza-BrianzaAges 8–17 - NCT06859684RecruitingPhase 2
Triple therapy for advanced bile duct cancer of the liver
This trial tests a combination of three treatments for people with advanced bile duct cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. The treatments include a chemotherapy infusion directly into the liver artery (HAIC), an immunotherapy drug (durvalumab), and a targeted therapy pill (lenvatinib). It aims to see if this triple therapy can shrink or control the cancer better than standard treatments.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT06867484Recruiting
Breast re-irradiation after second lumpectomy
This trial tests whether giving a second round of radiation to the breast after a lumpectomy for a recurrence is safe and effective. It is for people with a specific type of breast cancer (ER+HER2-) who meet strict criteria regarding prior radiation and tumor characteristics.
Boca Raton, FloridaAges 40 years+ - NCT05582772Recruiting
Supportive care for older men with metastatic prostate cancer
This study tests a phone-based supportive care program for older men with prostate cancer. It aims to help with day-to-day management while you’re receiving hormone-related cancer treatment.
Toronto, OntarioAges 65 years+ - NCT06195865Recruiting
Comparing body-tissue vs. implant breast reconstruction
This trial compares two types of breast reconstruction after mastectomy: using your own tissue (DIEP flap) versus using an implant. It aims to see which gives better results.
GothenburgAges 18 years+ - NCT04714463Recruiting
Study on thoughts and body image during breast reconstruction
This study looks at how people’s expectations and body image feelings may affect experiences after breast reconstruction after mastectomy. It may help doctors understand what kinds of support or counseling could make recovery feel better.
GothenburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05233891Recruiting
Swedish-language study of scales used in breast reconstruction
This study checks whether certain rating tools (called “scales”) are working well for people having breast reconstructive surgery at Sahlgrenska University Hospital. It may help future patients because it improves how outcomes and symptoms are measured in the clinic.
GothenburgAges 18–100 - NCT05222100Recruiting
Study how breast implants affect mammogram screening
This trial looks at whether having breast implants changes what happens during routine breast cancer screening with mammograms. It may help improve how screening is done and understood for people with implants.
GothenburgAges 40–75 - NCT05363189Recruiting
Improving recovery after breast reconstruction with belly-tissue flap
This study looks at ways to help your recovery after breast reconstruction using tissue moved from your lower belly (a DIEP flap). You may be asked to complete a questionnaire during the recovery period.
GothenburgAges 18–100 - NCT05789433Recruiting
Aerobic exercise study after colon or rectal cancer surgery
This trial studies whether a supervised aerobic exercise program helps muscles “remodel” (change/strengthen) after colon or rectal cancer treatment. It may help people improve physical function during recovery, but you can only join if it’s safe for you and you can follow the study plan.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06630624RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
IP-001 with ablation for colorectal liver metastases
This trial tests whether adding the drug IP-001 to tumor ablation (microwave or irreversible electroporation) helps control colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. The goal is to find the best dose and see how the immune system responds.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06776172Recruiting
Lymph node removal during prostate surgery: a comparison study
This trial tests whether removing pelvic lymph nodes during prostate cancer surgery improves outcomes for men with high-risk prostate cancer. If you have high-risk prostate cancer and no signs of spread, you may be able to join.

FAPI PET scan to diagnose pleural mesothelioma
This trial tests if a newer type of PET scan (FAPI PET) can better diagnose pleural mesothelioma than a standard FDG PET scan. If you have a suspicious spot in your lung lining and need a biopsy, this study may help improve how we find and track this cancer.
Aalborg, Region North JutlandAges 18 years+ - NCT05797805RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tegavivint for advanced liver cancer after prior treatments
This early-phase study tests tegavivint in people with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a type of liver cancer. It’s meant for cases where the cancer can’t be treated with curative surgery/local procedures or has progressed after standard systemic medicines.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06228079RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo-immunotherapy after surgery for early reoccurring nasopharyngeal cancer
This study looks at whether adding chemo-immunotherapy after surgery is better than surgery alone for patients whose nasopharyngeal cancer has returned but is still in early stages. It may help prevent the cancer from coming back again.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06846736Enrolling by invitation
Predicting ALK cancer treatment outcomes using digital pathology
This study uses a computer to analyze digital images of tumor tissue from people with a certain type of lung cancer (ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer). It aims to see if the computer can predict how well newer-generation ALK inhibitors work in these patients.
