Inhaled cisplatin for stage IV lung cancer
This trial tests a new way to give the chemotherapy drug cisplatin—as a dry powder you inhale—for people with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer who have not yet started treatment. The goal is to see if this inhaled form is safe and effective when added to standard immunotherapy or chemotherapy.

Study of Iparomlimab and Tuvonralimab for resectable lung cancer
This trial tests two immunotherapy drugs (iparomlimab and tuvonralimab) before and after surgery for people with a certain type of lung cancer that can be removed. It aims to see if this treatment helps improve outcomes.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06897488RecruitingPhase 2
Omitting endocrine therapy and radiation in low-risk breast cancer
This trial tests whether older women with very low-risk, hormone-positive breast cancer can safely skip endocrine therapy (hormone-blocking pills) and radiation after lumpectomy. It aims to maintain quality of life while keeping cancer from coming back.
Houston, TexasAges 60 years+ - NCT06897644RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two chemotherapy strategies for advanced pancreatic cancer
This study compares two chemotherapy strategies for people with advanced pancreatic cancer who have not yet had treatment. The goal is to see if switching to a different chemotherapy combination (gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel) after initial treatment works better than staying on the original chemotherapy (modified FOLFIRINOX).
Aviano, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT06904482RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell transplant with half-matched donor and cord blood
This trial tests a new way to do a stem cell transplant for people with hard-to-treat blood cancers. It combines a half-matched family donor (haploidentical) with a cord blood unit to help the transplant work better.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06898255RecruitingPhase 1
GFS202A for advanced solid tumors with weight loss
This study tests a new drug called GFS202A for people with advanced solid tumors who are experiencing weight loss or have a low body mass index (cachexia). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and can help improve appetite and weight.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06898333Recruiting
Lung cancer screening study for women getting mammograms
This study looks at how to improve lung cancer screening for women who are already getting mammograms. It may help find lung cancer early in people with a history of smoking.
Creve Coeur, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06898385RecruitingPhase 1
IX001 TCR-T Cells for Advanced Pancreatic Cancer with KRAS G12V
This trial tests a new treatment called IX001 TCR-T cells, which are specially designed immune cells that target a specific mutation (KRAS G12V) found in some pancreatic cancers. It is for people whose cancer has not been controlled by standard chemotherapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06898437RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Lutetium-177 LNC1004 for advanced thyroid cancer that no longer responds to standard treatments
This trial tests a radioactive drug called 177Lu-LNC1004 for people with a type of thyroid cancer that is no longer responding to standard treatments. The drug targets a protein called FAP found on tumor cells, which may help shrink tumors and slow disease progression.
BeijingAges 18–85 - NCT06898398Recruiting
TACE before surgery for large liver cancer
