Cirtuvivint and Olaparib for BRCA-related ovarian cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs, cirtuvivint and olaparib, for a specific type of ovarian cancer that no longer responds to platinum chemotherapy. It may be an option if you have a BRCA mutation or HRD-positive tumor and have already tried a PARP inhibitor.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06857669Recruiting
Optical breast imaging study for tumors larger than 1 cm
This trial uses a special light-based imaging device to look at breast tumors. It's for people with breast lumps bigger than 1 cm who can understand Swedish and haven't had breast surgery or chemotherapy before.
MalmöAges 18 years+ - NCT06850974Recruiting
Foley balloon for cervical preparation before abortion at 16–21 weeks
This study tests whether using a Foley balloon (a soft tube with a small balloon) before a dilation and evacuation procedure helps prepare the cervix safely. It is for women in Mozambique who need an abortion between 16 and 21 weeks of pregnancy.
MaputoAges 18 years+ - NCT06848465RecruitingPhase 1
Radiation plus chemo-immunotherapy for colon cancer with liver spread
This trial tests a combination of low-dose radiation, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy for people with colorectal cancer that has spread only to the liver. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06856213RecruitingPhase 2
Cetuximab with or without weekly paclitaxel for head and neck cancer
This study tests whether adding the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel (Taxol) to the targeted therapy cetuximab (Erbitux) is more effective than cetuximab alone for head and neck cancer that has progressed after initial immunotherapy and chemotherapy. Researchers want to see if the combination can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
