Suzhou, JiangsuAges Up to 79 years - NCT06754904Recruiting
Skipping lymph node removal for melanoma with good treatment response
This trial tests whether patients with stage 3 melanoma that shrinks significantly after initial immunotherapy can safely avoid having all their lymph nodes surgically removed. Instead, only the main affected node is removed for testing.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 16 years+ - NCT06754930RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of SHR-1826 combined with other treatments for lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called SHR-1826 in combination with other anti-cancer therapies for people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It aims to see if these combinations are safe and effective for patients who haven't been treated before or whose cancer has come back.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06755359Recruiting
Radioactive implant for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new treatment called DaRT, which places tiny radioactive devices directly into your pancreatic tumor. It is for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer that has not spread, after they have already had standard chemotherapy.
BordeauxAges 18–120 - NCT06755450RecruitingPhase 1
Study of AUR112 for advanced lymphoma or CLL
This trial tests a new oral medication called AUR112 for people with advanced lymphoma or CLL that has not responded to at least 2 prior treatments. The goal is to see if it is safe and how it works in the body.
Vadodara, GujaratAges 18–99 - NCT06755619Recruiting
ctDNA testing for response in first-line PCNSL treatment
This study tests whether a blood test (ctDNA) can help doctors see how well treatment is working for people with a type of brain lymphoma (PCNSL) who are getting their first treatment with a cure in mind.
HelsinkiAges 18–70 - NCT06755554RecruitingPhase 3
Green dye to guide lymph node removal in stomach cancer surgery
This trial tests whether a special green dye (indocyanine green) injected during minimally invasive stomach cancer surgery helps doctors remove more lymph nodes, which may improve treatment. It is for people with stomach adenocarcinoma that has not spread to distant organs.
KyivAges 18 years+ - NCT06755684RecruitingPhase 2
Pre-surgery targeted drug combo for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This trial tests a new targeted pill (befotertinib) given before surgery, either with another targeted drug (bevacizumab) or with standard chemotherapy. The goal is to shrink the tumor and improve outcomes for people with a specific type of lung cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06755775Recruiting
PET scan to predict immunotherapy success in DLBCL
This trial uses a special PET scan to see if a protein called Granzyme B can predict how well immunotherapy will work for people with DLBCL. It aims to help doctors know earlier if treatment is effective.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT06755762Recruiting
3D blood test for advanced head and neck cancer
This study uses a special 3D culture method to grow and analyze tumor cells from the blood of people with advanced head and neck cancer. It also includes healthy volunteers for comparison, to help researchers understand how these cells behave and improve future detection.
TaoyuanAges 18–80 - NCT06755840Recruiting
Sleep breathing problems and multiple health conditions study
This study is for people who may have sleep-related breathing problems (like sleep apnea). It looks at how these issues connect with other health conditions. Participants will do a one-night sleep test and some simple health checks at Xiangya Hospital.
