Brain radiation, immunotherapy, and chemo for lung cancer spread
This trial tests a combination of low-dose radiation to the whole brain, immunotherapy, and chemotherapy given through a lumbar puncture. It is for people with lung cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain and has not responded to standard treatments.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT06432478Recruiting
3D printed applicators for internal radiation in gynecologic cancer
This trial tests a custom 3D-printed applicator used during brachytherapy (internal radiation) for women with gynecologic cancers. It aims to deliver radiation more precisely to the tumor, possibly reducing side effects.
St Leonards, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT06432972Recruiting
Pre-surgery exercise and smoking cessation program for lung cancer
This trial tests a short, intensive exercise program (pulmonary rehab) before lung cancer surgery. It also helps people quit smoking during the program. The goal is to see if this approach improves recovery after surgery.
Burlington, VermontAges 18 years+ - NCT06432985Recruiting
Smoking Cessation Program for Veterans with Cancer
This study tests a video-based program to help Veterans who smoke and are being treated for cancer or lung cancer screening to quit. If you're a VA patient in San Francisco and currently smoke, you may be able to join.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06433349Recruiting
How cancer affects family health
This study looks at how cancer affects the whole family. If you or a loved one is being treated for certain cancers with the goal of a cure, researchers want to learn how to best support families during this time.
Odense CAges 18 years+ - NCT06433362RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo combo for untreated Peripheral T-cell lymphoma
This trial is testing a new combination of chemotherapy drugs (CMOEP) for people with untreated Peripheral T-cell lymphoma. It aims to see if this treatment is safe and effective.
TianjinAges 18–70 - NCT06433817Recruiting
