Metformin to target leukemia-related mutation during remission
This trial tests if metformin can reduce a specific mutation (DNMT3A R882) in people with acute leukemia who are in remission. The goal is to see if it helps prevent relapse.

Combination therapy for advanced melanoma with NRAS mutation
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (tunlametinib, pucotenlimab, and hydroxychloroquine) for people with advanced melanoma that has a specific genetic change called NRAS. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07739654RecruitingPhase 3
Modified chemotherapy combo for relapsed large b-cell lymphoma
This study compares two chemotherapy regimens for people with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that has returned or not responded to earlier treatment. The goal is to see if a modified version is as effective with fewer side effects.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18 years+ - NCT05512364RecruitingPhase 3
Elacestrant for ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer with ctDNA relapse
This trial tests whether elacestrant can help stop or delay breast cancer coming back in people whose blood test shows “ctDNA relapse” after early breast cancer treatment. It’s meant for hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancer patients who are already taking hormone (endocrine) therapy and have no visible spread on scans.
AnderlechtAges 18 years+ - NCT07131059Recruiting
Study for MRD-positive AML in remission
This trial is for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are in remission but still have tiny traces of leukemia cells that can be found with sensitive tests (called MRD-positive). The study is testing a new treatment approach to try to get rid of those remaining cells and prevent the cancer from coming back.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 14 years+ - NCT07590531RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Two-Drug Lung Cancer Treatment Study
This trial tests a combination of two experimental drugs (AMT-116 and ivosidan) for patients with advanced lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The study aims to see if this combination can help shrink tumors and improve survival.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07703878RecruitingPhase 1
A study of GS-1206 for people with solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called GS-1206 for adults with solid tumors that have a specific genetic change. It aims to see if the drug is safe and can shrink or slow the growth of the cancer after other treatments have stopped working.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03824652RecruitingPhase 2
Walnuts and omega-3 to help weight loss before prostate surgery
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding walnuts (and related nutrients like omega-3s) can help with weight loss and energy in people with prostate cancer who are planning prostate removal surgery. It aims to see if diet changes improve how you feel and manage weight before and around treatment.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06567704Recruiting
Fatigue from immunotherapy in lung cancer: a patient interview study
This study aims to understand how maintenance immunotherapy affects fatigue in people with non-small cell lung cancer. Researchers will talk with patients to learn about their experiences.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06529250Recruiting
Medium-dose chemo for CEBPA double-mutated AML
This trial tests a medium-dose combination of three chemotherapy drugs (homoharringtonine, cytarabine, and daunorubicin) specifically for people with a newly diagnosed type of AML that has two common CEBPA gene mutations. It aims to see if this treatment works well and is safe.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 14–54 - NCT05534087RecruitingPhase 3
Blood test guided chemo after colon cancer surgery
This study tests whether giving additional (adjuvant) chemotherapy based on a special blood test—circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)—can lower the risk of colon cancer coming back. It targets people with stage II–III colon cancer whose blood test is positive for minimal residual disease (MRD) after completing standard chemo.
BusanAges 19–75 - NCT03959800Recruiting
Study of the causes of childhood liver tumors
This study looks at why childhood liver tumors happen by using samples and information from children who have had a liver tumor and from their close family members. It may help researchers understand the biology of these tumors and guide better treatments in the future.
