Genetics of Sorafenib in Liver Cancer Patients
This trial tests whether the way your body processes the drug sorafenib (used for liver cancer) affects its safety and effectiveness. It aims to find the best dose for patients based on their genetics, which could lead to better treatment outcomes.
Shibīn al Kawm, MenoufiaAges 18–80 - NCT06527898RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Short-course radiation plus immunotherapy for limited-stage small-cell lung cancer
This study tests using a shorter course of radiation (hypofractionated radiotherapy) combined with immunotherapy for people with limited-stage small-cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if this approach works better at controlling the cancer and may cause fewer side effects.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–70 - NCT06528184Recruiting
Comparing HPV testing methods for cervical cancer screening
This study compares different ways of testing for HPV (the virus that causes cervical cancer) during routine screening at primary care clinics. It aims to see which testing method works best to detect the virus and prevent cancer.
Singapore, SingaporeAges 30–69 - NCT06528301RecruitingPhase 1
Trial of UB-VV111 with or without rapamycin for B-cell cancers
This trial tests a new therapy called UB-VV111, alone or with rapamycin, in people with certain types of lymphoma or leukemia that have come back or not responded to treatment. The goal is to see if it's safe and effective.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06528418Recruiting
Breath test to find lung diseases
This study uses a simple breath test to detect different lung diseases. By analyzing the chemicals in your breath, researchers hope to find a faster, non-invasive way to diagnose lung conditions. It may be an option if you have a known lung disease and have a recent CT scan.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–100 - NCT06528769RecruitingPhase 2
ATRA and immunotherapy for advanced leiomyosarcoma
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA, a vitamin A derivative) and cemiplimab (an immunotherapy)—for people with advanced leiomyosarcoma who've already had chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06528912Recruiting
Standard Follow-Up Program for Brain Tumor Patients
This trial tests a new follow-up program for people with brain or spinal tumors who are getting radiation therapy. The program aims to improve your care and monitor your recovery after treatment.
GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT06528691RecruitingPhase 2
Entrectinib for young children with NTRK/ROS1 brain tumors
This trial tests a targeted drug (entrectinib) in very young children (under 3) with a newly diagnosed brain tumor that has a specific genetic change (NTRK or ROS1 fusion). The drug works by blocking signals that help the tumor grow, and is given as the first treatment, before any chemotherapy or radiation.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 3 years - NCT06528847RecruitingPhase 2
Adjuvant Benmelstobart for stage IB, grade 3 lung adenocarcinoma
This trial tests whether giving the immunotherapy drug Benmelstobart after surgery can help prevent return of a specific type of lung cancer. It is for people with stage IB, grade 3 (poorly differentiated) lung adenocarcinoma that has been completely removed.

Study of a microRNA detection test in healthy people
This trial tests a new way to detect tiny molecules called microRNAs in the body. It is looking for healthy volunteers to help see how well the detection works.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06529575Recruiting
How skin color affects pulse oximeter accuracy in children
This study checks if a child's skin color affects how well a pulse oximeter (a small clip on the finger that measures oxygen in the blood) works. It involves children having a heart catheterization, where doctors can directly measure oxygen levels, to see if the pulse oximeter gives the same reading.
