Study measuring radiation dose during brachytherapy
This trial tests a way to measure the exact radiation dose you receive during internal radiotherapy (brachytherapy). It aims to make treatment safer and more effective for prostate or gynecologic cancers.

Study of a drug combo for relapsed B-cell leukemia
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (Inotuzumab Ozogamicin, Venetoclax, and Dexamethasone) for children and young adults whose B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) has come back after treatment. It may help those whose leukemia has not responded to standard therapy or who have relapsed after a stem cell transplant or CAR-T therapy.

Study of Befotertinib for non-small cell lung cancer with uncommon EGFR mutations
This trial tests a drug called Befotertinib for people with non-small cell lung cancer that has uncommon EGFR mutations (like G719X, L861Q, S768I, or exon 20 insertions). It is for those who haven't taken an EGFR-targeted pill before and have had a previous chemotherapy stopped working or caused side effects.

SBRT and lenalidomide for solitary plasmacytoma
This trial tests combining a focused, high-dose radiation treatment (SBRT) with the drug lenalidomide for people with a single plasma cell tumor (solitary plasmacytoma). The goal is to see if this combination works better than radiation alone.

Blood markers in advanced thyroid cancer
This study is looking at how certain substances in the blood (called biomarkers) can help doctors understand and treat advanced thyroid cancer. It is for people who are about to start their first systemic therapy (medication that works throughout the body) for advanced thyroid cancer, and who have already had a genetic test on their tumor.

CT Scan to Check Response to First Kidney Cancer Treatment
This study uses a special CT scan to see how well your first treatment for kidney cancer that has spread is working. It looks at people with clear cell renal cell carcinoma who are starting immunotherapy combined with a targeted drug or two immunotherapy drugs.
Bologna, BOAges 18 years+ - NCT06864195Recruiting
Breath test for liver cancer detection
This study tests a simple breath test to detect liver cancer and monitor liver health. It is looking for patients with liver cancer, liver cirrhosis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, or people with normal livers to see if the breath test can help tell the difference.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06864221Recruiting
How fat molecules in blood affect liver cancer radiotherapy
This study looks at whether certain fats in your blood can help predict how well radiotherapy works for liver cancer. If you are getting radiation for liver cancer, your blood samples may help doctors learn more about your treatment response.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06864338Recruiting
Pilot study for a new colorectal cancer screening test
This study tests a new stool-based test for detecting colorectal cancer and advanced polyps. It aims to see how well it works compared to a colonoscopy. The results may lead to a simpler screening option.
Morrisville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06864754Recruiting
Video to improve understanding of DIEP flap breast reconstruction
This study tests whether a new video helps people understand their upcoming DIEP flap breast reconstruction surgery better. It is for patients who are already scheduled for this surgery at Barnes Jewish Hospital.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06865638Recruiting
Testing for colorectal anastomotic leaks after surgery
This trial is testing a new method to check for leaks after colorectal cancer surgery. The goal is to see if it helps prevent complications and improves recovery.
Nanchong, SichuanAges 18–85 - NCT06865664RecruitingPhase 1
Engineered immune cells for relapsed rhabdomyosarcoma in youth
This early-phase trial tests a new immune cell therapy (CAR T cells) for children and young adults whose rhabdomyosarcoma has returned or not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if these specially engineered cells can find and attack the cancer.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–39 - NCT06865768RecruitingPhase 2
New PET-MRI scan for better prostate biopsy guidance
This trial tests a new imaging scan that combines a special PET tracer with MRI to help guide a prostate biopsy. The goal is to see if this scan can more accurately find cancer and reduce the need for extra biopsies.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06866262RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Inulin gel with immunotherapy for advanced kidney cancer
This trial tests whether adding an inulin gel to standard immunotherapy (ipilimumab and nivolumab) can help treat kidney cancer that has spread or cannot be removed. It is for people who have not had prior treatment for advanced disease.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06866483Recruiting
Online screening for undiagnosed myasthenia gravis
This study tests a new online screening tool to find people who might have undiagnosed myasthenia gravis (a muscle-weakness condition). You answer questions about your symptoms and get more information if the tool suggests you might need to talk to a doctor.
Evanston, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06866652Recruiting
Why Am I Short of Breath? A Study in Myasthenia Gravis
This study looks at why people with myasthenia gravis (MG) feel short of breath. It aims to understand breathing problems that happen in daily life, even when MG seems stable.
