DNA test for endometrial cancer using vaginal fluid
This study tests whether DNA markers in vaginal fluid can help detect endometrial cancer. You'll provide a sample and take part in a virtual interview.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 45 years+ - NCT05441163Recruiting
Nutrition and exercise program for frail advanced digestive cancer patients
This study tests whether a personalized plan for food (nutrition) and safe, adapted exercise can improve care in frail people with advanced digestive cancers. You may be more likely to feel stronger and better supported during first-line cancer treatment.
Tours, Institut CurieAges 18 years+ - NCT05482893RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Spevatamig for advanced stomach, pancreas, or bile duct cancer
This trial tests a new drug called Spevatamig (PT886), alone or with different chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy combinations, for people with certain advanced stomach, pancreatic, or bile duct cancers. The goal is to see if it shrinks tumors and is safe.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06179459Recruiting
Endoscopic treatment for pancreatic fluid collections
This study tracks patients who get endoscopic treatment for fluid collections in or around the pancreas. It aims to collect data to improve care for future patients.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05098613RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new immune cell therapy for relapsed B-cell lymphoma
This trial is testing a new treatment called CD19x22 CAR T cells for people with certain types of B-cell lymphoma that have come back or not responded to other treatments. The therapy uses your own immune cells, which are modified in a lab to better attack the cancer.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 16 years+ - NCT05873686RecruitingPhase 1
Study of NXP900 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called NXP900 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The study has two parts: one for any advanced solid tumor and another for tumors with specific genetic changes.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07612046Recruiting
MRI of the pancreas for cancer screening
This study uses MRI scans to screen for pancreas cancer in people at high risk due to family history or certain gene mutations. It aims to see if MRI can help find cancer early.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05937906RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Chemo and immunotherapy plus short targeted drug for lung cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests how safe and how well a combination of chemo and immunotherapy works when followed by a short course of a targeted “MEK” inhibitor as first treatment for metastatic lung adenocarcinoma with PD-L1 below 50%. It may help some people control cancer better, while also providing more information about side effects and the best way to use these medicines together.
Dijon, BurgundyAges 18 years+ - NCT07174583RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of IDE849 for DLL3-positive cancers like SCLC
This trial tests a new drug called IDE849 for cancers that make a protein called DLL3, including small cell lung cancer and some neuroendocrine tumors. It is for people whose cancer has progressed after standard treatments, and may be given alone or combined with other drugs like durvalumab or IDE161.
