Duvelisib vs chemotherapy for relapsed T-cell lymphoma
This trial tests a new drug, duvelisib, against two standard chemotherapy drugs (gemcitabine or bendamustine) for people with T-cell lymphoma that has come back or not responded to treatment. Duvelisib is a targeted therapy that may work differently than chemotherapy.
GhentAges 18 years+ - NCT06522828RecruitingPhase 2
Study of SSGJ-707 for advanced gynecologic cancers
This trial tests a new drug called SSGJ-707 for people with advanced endometrial cancer or ovarian cancer that no longer responds to platinum-based chemotherapy. The goal is to see if it can help shrink or slow down the cancer.
ChongqingAges 18–75 - NCT06522932RecruitingPhase 1
PET imaging study for people getting CAR-T therapy for lymphoma
This trial tests a special PET imaging agent (64Cu-GRIP B) to see if it can help track how well CAR-T therapy is working in people with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. It is for patients who have had at least one prior treatment and are scheduled to receive a standard CD19-targeting CAR-T product.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06522919RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy and chemotherapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a sequence of treatments for people with a specific type of advanced colorectal cancer (called pMMR or MSS) that has not responded to earlier therapies. Patients first receive an immunotherapy combination (pembrolizumab plus a personalized dendritic cell vaccine) followed by a chemotherapy pill (trifluridine/tipiracil) plus bevacizumab. The goal is to see if this sequence can help control the cancer.

Studying quality of life and cancer risk in Barrett's esophagus
This study looks at how Barrett's esophagus affects your quality of life and fear of cancer. It uses new tests to better predict who might develop esophageal cancer, so you can get the right care sooner.
Edegem, AntwerpenAges 18 years+ - NCT06523452Recruiting
Laser imaging during breast reconstruction surgery
This trial uses a special camera to monitor blood flow during breast reconstruction surgery. It may help doctors ensure the tissue stays healthy during the procedure.
Exeter, DevonAges 18 years+ - NCT06523608Recruiting
Predicting liver problems in advanced chronic liver disease
This study looks at people with advanced chronic liver disease to find ways to predict when they might get worse or develop liver cancer. Researchers hope to use this information to prevent complications and improve care.
Münster, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT06523582Recruiting
Genetic study of neuroendocrine tumors in Mexican patients
This study aims to find genetic causes of neuroendocrine tumors in Mexican patients. By understanding your DNA, researchers hope to improve diagnosis and treatment for people with these rare conditions.
Mexico City, Mexico CityAges 18 years+ - NCT06523634Recruiting
SBRT for rising PSA after prostate removal
This trial tests a precise type of radiation (called SBRT) to the prostate bed for men whose PSA starts rising after prostate removal surgery. It aims to see if this targeted approach can effectively treat the recurrence without needing long-term hormone therapy.
AalstAges 18 years+ - NCT06523673RecruitingPhase 3
SBRT for lung cancer with limited new growth
This trial tests whether a precise type of radiation called SBRT can control lung cancer that has started to grow in only a few new spots while you are on standard treatments. It may help you delay changing to a different treatment.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06523894Recruiting
Radiation therapy for breast cancer patients over 70
This trial tests a precise type of radiation called SBRT for breast cancer in patients aged 70 or older who cannot have surgery or choose not to. The goal is to see if this treatment can effectively control the tumor without surgery.
