La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07314216RecruitingPhase 2
Firmonertinib plus radiation for stage III lung cancer with rare EGFR mutations
This trial tests whether combining the targeted pill firmonertinib with radiation therapy can help people with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that has certain rare EGFR mutations. It is for those whose cancer cannot be removed by surgery.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT07174661Recruiting
Planning ahead for teens and young adults with advanced cancer
This study tests an educational tool to help young adults with advanced solid tumors or high-grade brain tumors think about and discuss their future healthcare wishes early. It may help you feel more prepared and in control of your care.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18–39 - NCT07689331Recruiting
Hungarian national amyloidosis study
This study creates a registry for people diagnosed with systemic amyloidosis in Hungary. It helps doctors better understand the condition by collecting medical history and tracking outcomes over time.
BalatonfüredAges 18 years+ - NCT05543330RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
M701 for lung cancer with pleural effusion
This trial tests a new drug called M701 for people with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the lining of the lung, causing fluid buildup (pleural effusion). It aims to see if M701 can help control the fluid and improve symptoms.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT04685616RecruitingPhase 3
Testing brentuximab with standard chemo for early Hodgkin lymphoma
This Phase 3 trial studies whether adding brentuximab vedotin to standard chemotherapy improves outcomes for people with newly diagnosed early-stage classical Hodgkin lymphoma. It may help reduce the chance the cancer returns or improves how well treatment works.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 16–69 - NCT07689058RecruitingPhase 2
CAR-T therapy for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma
This trial tests a CAR-T cell therapy for multiple myeloma that has come back or not responded to at least three prior treatments. It aims to see if this immunotherapy can help control the disease.
Rawalpindi, Punjab ProvinceAges 18 years+ - NCT06979180Recruiting
Papillex study for abnormal cervical cells from HPV
This trial tests whether Papillex, a supplement, can help clear abnormal cervical cells caused by HPV. You may be eligible if you have HPV and abnormal cell changes that haven't been treated recently.
London, OntarioAges 25–55 - NCT03934372RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Ponatinib for children with relapsed or hard-to-treat cancers
This trial tests a targeted therapy called ponatinib in children whose leukemia, lymphoma, or solid tumor has come back or hasn't improved with standard treatments. The drug works by blocking signals that help cancer cells grow, and the study looks at how safe and effective it is for different cancer types.
