Cancer Admission Score prediction model validation
This trial is studying a new tool to predict whether cancer patients will need to be admitted to the hospital when they come to the emergency department. It may help doctors make better decisions about your care.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06558773RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo for previously treated colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of a GSL synthesis inhibitor, an immunotherapy drug, and/or regorafenib in people with a specific type of colorectal cancer (pMMR/MSS) that has not responded to at least two prior treatments. The goal is to see if this new approach can help shrink or control the cancer.
Beijing, Biotherapeutic Department of Chinsese PLA Gereral HospitalAges 18–75 - NCT06558786Recruiting
Registry for esophageal cancer that has spread to a few spots
This study tracks patients with stage IV esophageal or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has spread to only a limited number of places (like the liver, lung, or a few lymph nodes). The goal is to understand how well treatments like surgery or radiation work after initial drug therapy.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06558682Recruiting
Pre-surgery treatment for HER2-positive cervical cancer
This trial tests a treatment given before surgery for cervical cancer that is both squamous cell type and HER2-positive. It aims to see if this approach works better for patients with these specific markers.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–70 - NCT06558981RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation therapy after thyroid surgery for high-risk cancer
This trial is testing whether giving radiation therapy after thyroid surgery can help destroy any leftover cancer cells in people with high-risk differentiated thyroid cancer. It is for those who had surgery but some cancer was still left behind.
ShanghaiAges 14–80 - NCT06559059Recruiting
Virtual cancer program for Veterans with new cancer
This study looks at how well a virtual (telemedicine) cancer program works for Veterans who are newly diagnosed with lung, prostate, breast, or colon cancer. Participation involves a telemedicine visit at a VA medical center instead of traveling to the hospital.
Brooklyn, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06559033Recruiting
Gene study for multiple myeloma or MGUS patients
This study looks for certain gene changes (GBA/PSAP) in people with multiple myeloma or MGUS. It aims to understand if these genes are linked to the disease, which may help guide future treatments.
RouenAges 18 years+ - NCT06559189RecruitingPhase 1
A new CAR T therapy for children with relapsed B-ALL
This trial tests a new type of CAR T cell therapy that targets two proteins (CD19 and CD22) found on leukemia cells. It is for children and young adults whose B-ALL has come back multiple times, or who have not responded to other treatments.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 3 months–30 years - NCT06559345RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell transplant study for children with ALL in remission
This trial tests a stem cell transplant using a half-matched family donor for children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that is in remission. It compares two different types of radiation conditioning to prepare the body for the new cells, with the goal of improving outcomes.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 1–17 - NCT06559371Recruiting
PET scan to check lymph nodes after breast cancer treatment
This study uses a special PET scan (68Ga FAPI) to check if lymph nodes under the arm still have cancer after you finish pre-surgery treatment. It helps doctors see how well the treatment worked before you have surgery.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06559540RecruitingPhase 2
Compare short radiation courses for node-positive breast cancer
