This trial tests giving chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted radiation before surgery for people with non-small cell lung cancer that can be removed. The goal is to see if this combination shrinks tumors and improves outcomes.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06718543RecruitingPhase 2
Short-course radiation with AK112 for rectal cancer before surgery
This trial tests whether combining short-course radiation with an immune therapy drug (AK112) plus chemotherapy before surgery is better than radiation alone for locally advanced rectal cancer. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes without needing stronger treatments later.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06718738RecruitingPhase 1
IM96 CAR-T for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new cell therapy called IM96 CAR-T, which targets a protein (GUCY2C) found on tumor cells. It is for people with advanced colorectal or stomach cancer that has not responded to standard treatments.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06718972Recruiting
Lung cancer with brain lining spread: real-world treatment study
This study looks at how people with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain or spinal cord are treated in real-world clinics in China. If you have received treatment for this spread since 2018, you may be able to help doctors learn what works best.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT06719206Recruiting
Reducing sitting time during cancer treatment
This study looks at helping people with breast, prostate, or colorectal cancer who are starting or have recently started treatment (like chemo or radiation) to sit less and move more during their treatment. If you are treated at a hospital in Uppsala or Västerås, Sweden, you may be able to join.
UppsalaAges 18 years+ - NCT06719245Recruiting
Preventing post-amputation pain with targeted nerve surgery
This trial tests a surgical procedure called targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) to prevent pain after a leg amputation. The goal is to see if rerouting nerves during amputation can reduce phantom limb pain or stump pain.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18–75 - NCT06719232Recruiting
Testing a new way to give bladder treatment without a catheter
This study tests a catheter-free method for delivering medication directly into the bladder. It may help patients with bladder pain, recurrent infections, bladder cancer, or cystitis after radiation or chemotherapy.
BudapestAges 18–80 - NCT06719414Recruiting
Using a special MRI to predict rectal cancer response to pre-surgery therapy
This trial uses a special type of MRI scan (called amide proton transfer-weighted imaging) to look at your rectal cancer before and after chemotherapy and/or radiation. The goal is to see if the scan can predict whether the cancer has completely disappeared by the time of surgery, which could help guide future treatment decisions.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT06719440Recruiting
Better outcome by shrinking radiation target for glioblastoma
This trial tests a smaller radiation target for newly diagnosed glioblastoma to reduce side effects while keeping treatment effective. It may help patients who are healthy enough for standard chemoradiotherapy.
AalstAges 18 years+ - NCT06719700RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo-radiation with two drugs for limited-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests combining standard chemotherapy with radiation (chemoradiotherapy) plus two additional drugs, toripalimab and surufatinib, for people with limited-stage small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if this combination improves outcomes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06720064Recruiting
Chlorhexidine dressing care for port and central catheters in children
This trial tests whether a special care bundle with a germ-killing dressing can reduce infections in children with port or central line catheters. It may help keep your child safer during treatment.
IzmirAges 1–17 - NCT06720142Recruiting
Magnesium bone filler study after tumor or trauma surgery
This study looks at how well a magnesium-based bone filler (Mg OSTEOCRETE) works for people who need it after bone tumor removal, to fix loose implants, or to help heal bone from injuries. Researchers want to track outcomes to see how helpful it is.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06720324RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CD7-targeted CAR-T therapy for relapsed blood cancers
