Personalized treatment for advanced breast cancer using lab-grown tumor models
This trial tests a personalized approach to cancer treatment. Doctors will grow a ‘mini-tumor’ from a biopsy of your cancer in the lab to help find the best therapy for you. It is for people with advanced breast cancer that has not responded well to standard treatments.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06461650Recruiting

Needs and Quality of Life in Advanced Cancer on Immunotherapy
This study looks at the physical and emotional needs of people with advanced cancer who are receiving immunotherapy. It aims to understand how these needs affect quality of life.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06461910RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy, thymalfasin, and chemo before surgery for stomach cancer
This trial is testing a combination of three medicines—an immunotherapy (anti-PD-1), an immune booster (thymalfasin), and a chemotherapy regimen (SOX)—given before surgery to shrink stage III stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer and improve outcomes.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT06462092RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Sacituzumab Govitecan and Spinal Chemo for Breast Cancer Spread to Spinal Fluid
This trial tests a combination of a targeted antibody-drug (sacituzumab govitecan) and chemotherapy given into the spinal fluid. It is for people with HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread to the membranes around the brain and spinal cord (leptomeningeal metastases). The goal is to see if this treatment can help control the cancer in the central nervous system.
Huizhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06462248RecruitingPhase 2
CAR-T therapy for B-cell blood cancers
This trial tests a new CAR-T cell therapy that targets a protein called CD19 on B-cell cancer cells. It is for children and adults with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or certain B-cell lymphomas that have not improved with standard treatments.
Hong KongAges 1 year+ - NCT06462430Recruiting
Registry for children with PTEN Hamartoma Tumor Syndrome
This study is creating a registry (a database) of children with PTEN Hamartoma Tumor Syndrome, a condition that can cause growths, large head size, and other health issues. By joining, you help doctors learn more about the condition and how to better care for kids like yours.
IstanbulAges 1 year+ - NCT06462365RecruitingPhase 1
Preventing GvHD after stem cell transplant for blood cancers
This trial tests a new way to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), a common complication after a stem cell transplant. It is for people with certain blood cancers who are getting a stem cell transplant from a half-matched family member or unrelated donor.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06462378RecruitingPhase 2
Proton therapy for advanced cervical cancer
This trial tests whether a precise type of radiation called proton therapy can work well for cervical cancer that has spread to lymph nodes. It aims to see if this treatment can shrink tumors with fewer side effects.
CopenhagenAges 18–99 - NCT06462495RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Comparing two PSMA PET/CT scans for prostate cancer
This trial compares two types of PET/CT scans (using different radioactive tracers) to see which is better at finding prostate cancer, tracking its return, or spotting spread. It's for people with prostate cancer or those being checked for recurrence after treatment.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–90 - NCT06462508RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Comparing two PET scans for prostate cancer detection
This trial compares two types of PET scans—one using a new tracer called [18F]F-PSMA-N5 and another using an existing tracer called [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11—to see which is better at finding prostate cancer, including early signs of recurrence. If you have or are suspected of having prostate cancer, this study may help determine how advanced the disease is.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–90 - NCT06463028RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted pills plus chemo for advanced endometrial cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted pills (sapanisertib and serabelisib) with standard chemo (paclitaxel) for endometrial cancer that has come back or spread. A substudy also looks at combining these drugs with a special diet that lowers insulin levels.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06462963Recruiting

Virus therapy with chemo and immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new treatment that uses a virus to attack cancer cells, combined with standard chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has gotten worse after initial treatment. The goal is to see if this combination works better than a different chemotherapy drug alone.
Bullhead City, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06463717Recruiting
