Using tumor organoids to guide treatment for rare cancer
This study is creating lab-grown mini-tumors (organoids) from your cancer to help doctors choose the best treatment for you. If you have a rare undifferentiated primary carcinoma, your tumor sample could be used to test different drugs before you receive them.

PET-guided radiation therapy for clear cell kidney cancer
This trial tests whether a special PET/CT scan (68Ga-NY104) can help guide radiation therapy for people with clear cell kidney cancer. The goal is to make radiation more precise and effective for treating tumors that haven't spread too much.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06613295Recruiting
Spine cancer trial: Surgery plus radiation vs radiation alone
This trial compares two treatments for cancer that has spread to the spine: surgery followed by precise radiation versus radiation alone. It aims to see if adding surgery improves pain, movement, and quality of life.
AalstAges 18 years+ - NCT06613581Recruiting
Home-based follow-up after colorectal cancer surgery
This trial tests whether patients can do their follow-up from home after surgery for colorectal cancer. It uses a smartphone app instead of hospital visits, aiming to make surveillance easier and less stressful.
Breda, North BrabantAges 21 years+ - NCT06614179Recruiting
Abdominal CT screening for abdominal tumors
This study uses abdominal CT scans to help screen for and diagnose various abdominal tumors. It looks at both people with confirmed tumors and healthy volunteers to build a model that can improve early cancer detection.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06614452Recruiting
Using ultrasound to biopsy bile duct narrowings
This study tests a new way to take a sample from a narrowed bile duct using a special ultrasound. It may help doctors diagnose the cause of the narrowing without more invasive procedures.
Foggia, FGAges 18 years+ - NCT06614686RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T therapy for advanced head and neck cancer
This study tests a new type of CAR-T cell therapy that targets a protein called Trop2 found on some head and neck cancer cells. It's for people who have tried standard treatments and need a new option.
ShanghaiAges 18–70 - NCT06614647Recruiting
Digital follow-up for colorectal cancer survivors
This trial tests a smartphone-based follow-up program for people who have been treated for early-stage colorectal cancer. The goal is to see if a digital, need-based care guide can replace standard follow-up visits.
Herning, Central JutlandAges 18 years+ - NCT06614738Recruiting
Microbes and environment in polyps after FAP surgery
This study looks at how bacteria and your environment might affect polyp growth in people with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) after colon removal. By collecting stool samples and medical information, researchers hope to find ways to reduce polyp risk.
Lyon, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06614790Recruiting
Niraparib maintenance for advanced ovarian cancer
This study looks at how well the drug niraparib works as a maintenance treatment for women with advanced ovarian cancer that responded well to initial platinum-based chemotherapy. It may help keep the cancer from coming back.
BialystokAges 18 years+ - NCT06615193RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for certain blood and solid tumors
This study tests a new drug, HDM2005, for people with relapsed or hard-to-treat B-cell lymphoma or advanced solid tumors. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT06615466Recruiting
Short radiation course for early stage breast cancer
This trial tests a shorter, more intense radiation schedule for women with early stage breast cancer after lumpectomy. It aims to provide effective treatment with fewer visits, which may be more convenient for patients.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 45–74 - NCT06615635Recruiting
Radiation device trial for skin cancer in patients with weak immune systems
This trial tests a special radiation device (DaRT) placed directly into skin cancer tumors. It is designed for patients with weakened immune systems (immunocompromised) who have a single skin cancer lesion on the skin (not spread elsewhere).
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06615752RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Green tea and quercetin with chemo for prostate cancer
This trial tests whether adding green tea extract and quercetin (a plant compound) to standard chemotherapy (docetaxel) can help men with advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and works better than chemo alone.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06616155RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Ruxolitinib and Enzalutamide for Resistant Prostate Cancer
This trial tests two drugs—ruxolitinib and enzalutamide—together to see if they can help men whose prostate cancer has spread and stopped responding to abiraterone. It is for those whose cancer grew quickly on abiraterone.
