Vaccine response after CAR-T for myeloma and lymphoma
This study looks at how well vaccines work in people with multiple myeloma or certain lymphomas after they receive CAR-T cell therapy. It aims to help doctors understand the best way to revaccinate patients to protect against preventable diseases.
Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT06784726RecruitingPhase 2
Odronextamab before CAR-T for large B-cell lymphoma
This trial tests a drug called odronextamab for people with large B-cell lymphoma whose cancer did not respond to or came back after initial treatment. The goal is to see if odronextamab can help shrink the tumor before getting CAR-T cell therapy.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT06784765Recruiting
Preventive PIPAC for advanced stomach cancer
This trial tests if a special type of chemotherapy delivered as a mist during surgery (PIPAC) can help prevent the spread of stomach cancer. It is for people with advanced but not yet metastatic stomach cancer who have not had prior treatment.
AstanaAges 18 years+ - NCT06784778Recruiting
Testing a blood test to predict immunotherapy response
This study is testing a new blood test called IOpener®-Melanoma to see if it can predict which patients with advanced melanoma will respond well to immunotherapy. The goal is to better match treatments to people who will benefit most.
Tübingen, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT06784791RecruitingPhase 2
Amivantamab before surgery for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug, amivantamab, given before surgery for people with a specific EGFR-mutated lung cancer. It aims to shrink tumors and improve surgical outcomes, and may be combined with standard chemotherapy in some patients.
HasseltAges 18 years+ - NCT06784921Recruiting
Study of sacituzumab govitecan for HER2-negative breast cancer
This study looks at how well a drug called sacituzumab govitecan works and how safe it is for people with a certain type of breast cancer that has spread (HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer). It aims to understand real-world results for patients in China.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06784986RecruitingPhase 4
Low-pressure gas system for robotic prostate surgery
This trial tests whether a special gas system (Airseal) used with very low air pressure during robotic prostate removal surgery can help patients recover better. It compares this to standard methods for men with prostate cancer.
Salvador, Estado de BahiaAges 18–65 - NCT06785051Recruiting
