Liver cancer treatment study for patients not eligible for surgery
This trial is collecting information on how well a treatment (likely TACE, a procedure to block the tumor's blood supply) works for people with liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see how safe and effective it is for patients who haven't had treatment before or who have a first recurrence.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06752031Recruiting
Improving hospital-to-home transition after colorectal surgery
This study aims to improve the process of transitioning from hospital to home after colorectal surgery in older adults. It tests a new care coordination approach to help patients recover safely and avoid complications.
Salem, MassachusettsAges 65 years+ - NCT06775275RecruitingPhase 2
Testing adebrelimab plus chemo before lung cancer surgery
This trial tests a new drug (adebrelimab) combined with standard chemotherapy, with or without another drug (bevacizumab), given before surgery for people with a certain type of lung cancer. The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink the tumor and makes surgery more effective.
GuangzhouAges 18–65 - NCT06756022Recruiting
Dolasetron to prevent nausea from chemo in kids with leukemia
This trial tests if a medicine called dolasetron can prevent chemotherapy-related nausea and vomiting in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It may help kids feel better during their first round of treatment.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 2–17 - NCT06736704RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of SNV4818 for advanced solid tumors with PIK3CA mutation
This trial tests a new drug, SNV4818, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific change in the PIK3CA gene. It may help when other treatments have stopped working.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06749730RecruitingPhase 2
Study of four drugs for advanced bile duct cancer
This trial tests a combination of four drugs (adebrelimab, apatinib, gemcitabine, and cisplatin) as a first treatment for people with advanced or metastatic bile duct cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink or control the cancer.
ZhengzhouAges 18–80 - NCT06737250RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new drug combo for relapsed brain lymphoma
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (poseltinib, rituximab, and lenalidomide) for people with primary central nervous system lymphoma that has come back or not responded to earlier treatment. The goal is to see if this new mix can help control the disease.
BusanAges 19–80 - NCT06782334RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
AMT-116 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called AMT-116 in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to prior treatment. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective.

EMDR for nausea and vomiting in cancer survivors
This trial tests if EMDR therapy can help reduce nausea and vomiting that some people continue to experience long after finishing cancer treatment.
Groningen, Provincie GroningenAges 16 years+ - NCT06777914Recruiting
Genes linked to rare liver disease and cancer risk
This study looks at whether certain family-related genes make people more likely to develop liver or bile duct cancers without a clear cause. If you had surgery or a transplant for one of these cancers and have had unexplained high liver enzymes or itching, this trial may help find genetic clues.
