This study tests a cooling balloon device to treat trouble swallowing caused by advanced esophageal cancer. It aims to open up the esophagus so you can eat more easily.
UtrechtAges 18 years+ - NCT06619002Recruiting
Using video to make uterine cancer surgery safer
This study is collecting videos from a type of minimally invasive surgery called sentinel lymph node dissection for endometrial or cervical cancer. The goal is to use deep learning (a type of artificial intelligence) to help surgeons identify important structures and any spread of cancer during the procedure, making the surgery safer and more effective.
RomaAges 18–99 - NCT06620016Recruiting
MicroRNA study for small testicular or post-chemo masses
This study looks at tiny molecules called microRNAs in the blood of people with either small testicular tumors (less than 2 cm) or leftover lymph node masses after chemotherapy for testicular cancer. The goal is to see if these microRNAs can help guide treatment decisions.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT06620055Recruiting
Artificial intelligence for better glioma treatment
This trial is for people with glioma who have tumor tissue or blood samples stored. It uses artificial intelligence to analyze these samples and find the best treatment. You might be eligible if you are at least 18 years old and have had a glioma diagnosis with tissue available for study.
Aviano, PordenoneAges 18 years+ - NCT06620380RecruitingPhase 2
Testing tumor samples to find the best drug for brain metastases
This trial tests tumor samples from brain metastases to see which drug might work best for you. It aims to guide your next treatment when standard options are limited.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT06620627Recruiting
Blood test for early cancer detection before colonoscopy
This study is testing a new blood test that might help find cancer early. If you are 40 or older and planning a routine screening colonoscopy, you may be able to join. You will give a blood sample before the colonoscopy, and the researchers will see if the test can detect signs of cancer.
