It aims to use advanced genomic testing (looking at your tumor's DNA) on your stored tumor sample and blood to find clues about where the cancer began and possible treatment options.
Manchester, Greater ManchesterAges 16 years+ - NCT06695845RecruitingPhase 2
Study of zanidatamab for HER2-positive solid tumors
This trial tests a drug called zanidatamab in people with advanced solid tumors that have high levels of HER2 protein (called HER2-positive). It aims to see if zanidatamab can shrink or slow the growth of these tumors.
Prescott, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06696183RecruitingPhase 2
Gilteritinib with venetoclax and azacitidine for FLT3-positive AML
This trial tests adding a targeted drug called gilteritinib to a standard two-drug combination (venetoclax and azacitidine) for people with a specific genetic change (FLT3 mutation) in their acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The goal is to see if the three drugs together work better than the two alone, for patients who cannot tolerate strong chemotherapy.
DresdenAges 18 years+ - NCT06696326Recruiting
New PET scan for prostate cancer detection
This study tests a new type of PET/CT scan that uses a special tracer (68Ga-MY6349) to better see prostate cancer in the body. It may help doctors find cancer that has come back or spread, so you can get the right treatment sooner.
Xiamen, FujianAges 18–90 - NCT06696534Recruiting
Patient views on colorectal cancer screening methods
This study asks people aged 50–69 about their experience and preferences with different screening methods for colorectal cancer. It aims to improve screening programs by understanding what patients prefer.
LisbonAges 50–69 - NCT06696833RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CD19-targeted CAR-T cell therapy for relapsed B-ALL
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (CAR-γδT cells) that targets CD19 on leukemia cells. It is for people with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has not responded to treatment or has come back.
Suzhou, China, JiangsuAges 14 years+ - NCT06696742RecruitingPhase 2
PD-1 inhibitor plus probiotic for bladder cancer
This trial tests a combination of a PD-1 inhibitor (which helps your immune system fight cancer) and a probiotic called Clostridium butyricum for people with bladder cancer. It is for those who either have invasive bladder cancer before surgery, or have high-risk features after surgery, and haven't had previous immunotherapy or chemotherapy.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06696794RecruitingPhase 3
Testing mitomycin before surgery for high-risk bladder cancer
This trial tests whether giving mitomycin directly into the bladder before surgery can help people with high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective at preventing cancer from coming back.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06696846RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-NK cell therapy for T cell lymphoma and acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests an immune cell treatment (CAR-NK cells) targeting a protein called CD70 found on cancer cells. It's for people with T cell lymphoma or acute myeloid leukemia that has come back or not responded to other treatments.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06697184RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a slower start of sonrotoclax for blood cancers
This trial tests a new way to slowly increase the dose of the drug sonrotoclax when starting treatment for blood cancers like chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). The goal is to see if this slower start is safer and better tolerated.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06697301RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
New drug with pembrolizumab for advanced melanoma
This trial tests a new drug (EIK1001) combined with the standard immunotherapy pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for people with advanced melanoma that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. The goal is to see if adding EIK1001 is more effective than placebo plus pembrolizumab.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06697483Recruiting
Personalized maintenance therapy for multiple myeloma after stem cell transplant
This trial tests a personalized approach to maintenance therapy for people with multiple myeloma who have already had a stem cell transplant. Your treatment plan may be adjusted based on how well your cancer responds and on certain risk factors, with the goal of keeping you in remission longer.

Liver transplant for colorectal cancer that spread to the liver
This trial tests a special approach for colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver: first removing the liver tumor, then doing a partial liver transplant, and later removing more liver tissue. The goal is to see if this can help people who otherwise have limited options.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06698250RecruitingPhase 2
Study of triple therapy for untreated liver cancer
This study tests a combination of three drugs (zanzalintinib, durvalumab, and tremelimumab) for people with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery and who have not received prior systemic treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink or slow the growth of the cancer.
