Elotuzumab, Iberdomide, and Dexamethasone after Ide-cel for multiple myeloma
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (elotuzumab, iberdomide, and dexamethasone) for multiple myeloma that has come back after treatment with a type of CAR T-cell therapy called ide-cel. It aims to see if this new combination can help people who have already tried several other treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06518564RecruitingPhase 2
Avelumab and M1774 for ARID1A-mutated endometrial cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, avelumab (an immunotherapy) and M1774, in people with a specific type of endometrial cancer that has an ARID1A gene mutation. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06518655Recruiting
Can a breath test tell if a lung nodule is cancer?
This trial is testing a simple breath test to see if it can tell whether a lung nodule is cancer or not. If you have a lung nodule that will be removed by surgery, you may be able to help find out if breathing into a device can replace more invasive tests.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06518746Recruiting
Freezing gonadal tissue to preserve fertility
This study looks at the best way to preserve your fertility by freezing gonadal tissue (ovarian or testicular tissue) before it is removed. It may help if you have a disorder of sex development and are at risk of losing your ability to have children.
Aurora, ColoradoAges Up to 30 years - NCT06519006Recruiting
Pelvic floor exercises after rectal surgery
This trial tests whether doing pelvic floor exercises after a type of rectal surgery called 'low anterior resection' can help prevent bowel problems known as Low Anterior Resection Syndrome (LARS). It may help you maintain better bowel control after surgery.
Banská BystricaAges 19 years+ - NCT06519266RecruitingPhase 3
Liver treatment with immunotherapy for uveal melanoma that spread to the liver
This trial tests whether adding a liver-directed therapy (PHP) to a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (ipilimumab and nivolumab) works better than the immunotherapy drugs alone for people whose uveal melanoma has spread to the liver.
GothenburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06519292Recruiting
Heart side effects from immunotherapy in cancer patients
This trial looks at whether immunotherapy drugs (checkpoint inhibitors) cause heart problems in people with certain cancers. It will help doctors understand who is at risk and how to monitor for side effects.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 50 years+ - NCT06519526RecruitingPhase 2
Study of two drugs for relapsed peripheral T-cell lymphoma
This study tests two new drugs (SHR-0302 and SHR-2554) for people with a type of lymphoma (peripheral T-cell lymphoma) that has come back or not responded to prior treatment. The goal is to see if the combination can help control the cancer.
ShanghaiAges 18–70 - NCT06519578Recruiting
Liver Cancer Study: Comparing Two Chemotherapy Drugs via Artery Infusion
This study compares two chemotherapy drugs (raltitrexed and 5-fluorouracil) given directly into the liver's main artery to treat liver cancer. It aims to see which drug works better and is safer for people with hepatocellular carcinoma.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06519682Recruiting
Immunotherapy for young people with a specific brain tumor
This trial is testing a new immunotherapy (nivolumab) for children, teens, and young adults with a specific type of aggressive brain tumor (glioblastoma that has a DNA repair problem). It aims to see if giving this treatment early, right after surgery, can help the immune system fight the tumor.
