Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06533709Recruiting
Can PET-CT predict ovarian cancer surgery success?
This trial uses PET-CT scans to create a model that predicts how completely advanced ovarian cancer can be removed during surgery. It may help doctors plan the best treatment for you.

Eganelisib alone or with chemo for relapsed AML
This trial tests an experimental drug called eganelisib, either alone or with the chemotherapy drug cytarabine, for people with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or certain high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). It aims to see if the drug is safe and can help control the cancer.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06533826RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two antibody drugs for HER2-low breast cancer
This trial tests two antibody-drug conjugates (Enhertu and Datroway) for breast cancer that is HER2-low or HER2-0. It aims to find the best treatment sequence for people whose cancer has stopped responding to prior therapy.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06534060RecruitingPhase 2
Testing MB-105 for CD5 positive T-cell lymphoma
This trial tests a new treatment called MB-105 for people with a type of T-cell lymphoma that has come back or not responded to other treatments. MB-105 is designed to target and attack cancer cells that have a specific marker called CD5 on their surface.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06534463Recruiting
MZL patient registry study
This study is a registry that collects information on Chinese patients with marginal zone lymphoma. It helps doctors learn more about how MZL behaves and how it is treated.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 14 years+ - NCT06534489Recruiting
Surgery for lung cancer after chemo or targeted therapy
This trial tests whether combining chemo or targeted therapy before surgery can help people with non-small cell lung cancer that may require removing a whole lung. We want to see if this approach makes the surgery safer and more effective.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06534762RecruitingPhase 2
Miraberon for advanced solid tumors (first treatment)
This study tests a drug called Miraberon for people with advanced solid tumors that have not yet been treated with chemotherapy or other cancer drugs. The goal is to see if Miraberon can help shrink or control the cancer.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–65 - NCT06535113Recruiting
Inflammation and treatment response in AML
This study looks at how inflammation (the body's response to injury or infection) affects treatment outcomes in people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). If you have a new diagnosis or have stored samples from a past diagnosis, you may help researchers understand why some people respond better to therapy.
Reggio Calabria, CalabriaAges 18 years+ - NCT06535451Recruiting
Lung cancer screening for people at high risk
This study offers free lung cancer screening (a CT scan) to people aged 50 and older who are at higher risk due to smoking, wood smoke exposure, or COPD. It aims to catch cancer early, when it's easier to treat.
Mexico City, TlalpanAges 50 years+ - NCT06535893RecruitingPhase 2
Testing new treatments for early breast cancer
This trial tests new treatments for early breast cancer (stage II or III). It aims to find better therapies that can stop the cancer from coming back, and you may receive a promising new drug.
Nagoya, Aichi-kenAges 18–80 - NCT06536010Recruiting
Testing a new combination therapy for AML
This trial tests a new combination therapy called VAG for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who haven't been treated before. The goal is to see if it works better than standard treatments.
Huai'an, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT06536179Recruiting
New research on mesothelioma: using surgery tissue samples
This research study collects tissue samples from people having surgery for pleural mesothelioma (a rare lung cancer) or other lung diseases. The samples are used to better understand the disease and improve future treatments.
Naples, CampaniaAges Any age - NCT06536127Recruiting
Immune cells in non-spreading rectal cancer treatment
This study is looking at immune cells (NK cells and ImmunoScore) in the blood of people with rectal cancer that hasn't spread. It may help doctors learn more about how the immune system responds to standard chemoradiation treatment.
AvignonAges 18 years+ - NCT06536257Recruiting
Personalized immunotherapy prediction for melanoma and other cancers
This trial is testing a new way to predict which immunotherapy might work best for your cancer. It uses a sample of your tumor to look for personal markers, so your treatment can be tailored to you.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT06536413RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2

How blood cell production differs in CLL, MBL, and healthy people
