How muscle loss affects disease course in GI cancers
This study looks at how loss of muscle mass (sarcopenia) affects the course of illness in people with gastrointestinal cancers, liver cirrhosis, or those in the ICU. It will help doctors better understand and treat muscle wasting.

New drug combo vs chemo for resistant lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (Glumetinib and Osimertinib) against standard chemotherapy for people with non-small cell lung cancer that has stopped responding to initial targeted therapy. It may be an option if your tumor has a specific genetic change called MET amplification or overexpression.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06829654Recruiting
Reimplanting frozen ovarian tissue in sarcoma and blood cancer survivors
This study looks at transplanting ovarian tissue that was frozen before cancer treatment to help restore fertility and hormone function in people who survived sarcomas or blood cancers. It aims to see if this procedure is safe and effective.
BolognaAges 18–38 - NCT06829472RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing melphalan doses before stem cell transplant for AML/MDS
This trial compares two different doses of a chemotherapy drug (melphalan) as part of the conditioning treatment before a stem cell transplant. The goal is to find which dose is safer and more effective for people with AML or MDS.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–55 - NCT06829719Recruiting
Using TTV virus to manage immune drugs in kidney transplant
This trial uses a virus called TTV to see if it can help doctors safely adjust immunosuppression drugs in kidney transplant patients. It aims to find a way to lower the risk of rejection while reducing side effects.
Bordeaux (France)Ages 18 years+ - NCT06829771RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
A new drug combined with standard chemo for large B-cell lymphoma
This trial is testing a new drug called TQB2825 given alongside standard chemotherapy (R-CHOP or GemOx) for people with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) or a related type called grade 3b follicular lymphoma. The goal is to see if adding this new drug is safe and works better than standard treatment alone.
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 18–80 - NCT06830083Recruiting
Shorter radiation schedule after mastectomy with implant reconstruction
This trial is testing a shorter, higher-dose radiation schedule (hypofractionation) for women who have had a mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction with implants. The goal is to see if this approach works as well as standard radiation while possibly being more convenient and causing fewer side effects.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–65 - NCT06830239RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant dostarlimab for resectable stage III colon cancer
This trial tests an investigational immunotherapy drug called dostarlimab given before surgery for colon cancer. It is for people whose tumor is MMR-proficient (also called MSS) and is large enough or has spread to nearby lymph nodes but not to other parts of the body. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink the tumor before surgery.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT06830356Recruiting
PET-guided radiation for high-risk meningiomas
This trial uses a special PET scan to find active tumor areas and then delivers a stronger dose of radiation to those spots. It is for people with aggressive or returning meningiomas who have not had brain radiation before.
Aviano, PordenoneAges 16 years+ - NCT06830382Recruiting
HER2-PET scan for metastatic breast cancer treatment
This trial uses a special PET scan (HER2-PET) to see if a targeted drug (trastuzumab deruxtecan) works better for your type of metastatic breast cancer. The goal is to match the treatment to how much HER2 protein your tumors show.
SolnaAges 18 years+ - NCT06830512Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation for heart tumors
This trial tests a procedure that uses ultrasound images to guide a thin needle into the heart to destroy tumors with heat. It is for people who have heart tumors causing symptoms but cannot have standard surgery.
