Surgery trial for colon cancer spread to stomach-area fat
This trial studies whether a specific surgery that removes the colon’s associated tissue (and part of the nearby stomach-area tissue) improves outcomes for certain colon cancer cases that are at risk of spreading there. If you qualify, your doctors will compare your treatment approach as part of the study to see if it helps.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT05633615RecruitingPhase 2
Testing new drug options after CAR T for aggressive lymphoma
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding or switching drug treatments after CAR T-cell therapy can improve outcomes for people with certain aggressive lymphomas that have come back or did not respond. It mainly looks at who remains disease-stable/partly improved after CAR T and what treatment approach works best next.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT01906385RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Recurrent brain tumor study testing rhenium nano-liposome
This early-phase study tests a drug made of tiny fat-like particles carrying rhenium for recurrent (coming back) high-grade glioma. It mainly checks safety and the highest tolerable dose, and it also looks for signs the treatment may slow tumor growth.

Pre-surgery exercise program for lung cancer treatment
This trial looks at whether a “prehabilitation” (guided exercise and fitness preparation) program helps people with non-small cell lung cancer get ready for surgery after starting treatment before surgery. It may help you tolerate treatment and surgery better if you can do the required fitness testing and procedures.
Barcelona, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07785609RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combination for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug combination for people with advanced solid tumors. It aims to see if the combination is safe and may shrink tumors.
San Antonio, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07526545Recruiting
Urine test and MRI for early prostate cancer detection
This study tests a new urine test combined with an MRI to find prostate cancer early. It may help avoid unnecessary biopsies.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 50–75 - NCT07226986RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of AMO959 with Lutetium-177 and ARPI for prostate cancer
This trial tests a new combination therapy for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and is no longer responding to hormone therapy. It combines an experimental drug (AMO959) with a targeted radiation treatment (Lutetium-177) and a standard hormone therapy to see if it helps control the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07711002RecruitingPhase 3
Saruparib with standard therapy for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug called saruparib, which may help keep prostate cancer from growing. It is for men whose cancer has spread and who have already received certain treatments. The study combines saruparib with a standard hormone therapy to see if it works better than the hormone therapy alone.
Hot Springs, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06827236RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new combination treatment for advanced breast cancer
This study tests two experimental drugs, BNT323 and BNT327, together in people with advanced breast cancer. The goal is to find the best dose and see if the combination is safe and helpful.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06820463RecruitingPhase 2
Study of telisotuzumab adizutecan plus chemo for metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination for people with metastatic colorectal cancer. The study includes an experimental antibody-drug conjugate (telisotuzumab adizutecan) plus standard chemotherapy and targeted therapies, to see if it works better than current options.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07824349RecruitingPhase 1
JUR-003 for metastatic prostate cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug called JUR-003 in people with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Grand Rapids, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07595107Recruiting
Using AI to support rectal cancer treatment decisions
This study uses an AI tool to help doctors make treatment decisions for rectal cancer. It looks at MRI reports and other medical information to suggest the best next steps, like surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT04510051RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cell therapy for IL13Rα2 positive pediatric brain tumors
This Phase 1 study tests a type of immune therapy (CAR T cells) for children with brain tumors that come back or do not respond to standard treatment. The cells are given after chemotherapy that temporarily lowers the body’s immune system, which may help the CAR T cells work better.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 4–25 - NCT07625527RecruitingPhase 2
Stopping immunotherapy after bladder cancer disappears
This trial tests whether it's safe to stop immunotherapy once bladder cancer is no longer visible, instead of continuing it for a longer time. It aims to find out if stopping treatment early can reduce side effects while keeping the cancer from coming back.
TianjinAges 18 years+ - NCT06239194RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
MdX2001 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, MDX2001, for people with advanced solid tumors that have spread. The study aims to find the best dose and see how well it works.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT05875168RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of DS-3939a for Advanced Solid Tumors
This trial is testing a new drug called DS-3939a for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The study has two parts to find the right dose and see how well it works.
Sarasota, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07186842RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing the safety of BNT329 for advanced CA19-9 positive tumors
This trial tests if the investigational drug BNT329 is safe and could help people with advanced solid tumors that make a marker called CA19-9. It is for those who have tried standard treatments and need new options.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT07672860RecruitingPhase 2
UDCA to protect kidneys during partial nephrectomy
This clinical trial is testing whether a medicine called ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) can help protect the kidneys during partial nephrectomy (removing only the tumor while keeping the healthy part of the kidney). It is for people with early-stage kidney tumors who will have temporary interruption of blood flow to the kidney during surgery.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT06422143RecruitingPhase 3
Keytruda with or without Sac-TMT for advanced squamous lung cancer
This trial tests the combination of pembrolizumab (Keytruda) with or without a new drug, sacituzumab tirumotecan (Sac-TMT), as initial treatment for advanced squamous non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to see if adding Sac-TMT after initial treatment helps keep cancer under control longer.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT07659782RecruitingPhase 2
Study of VS-7375 for KRAS G12D lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug, VS-7375, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific genetic change called KRAS G12D. It's for those who have already tried chemo and immunotherapy, and whose cancer has continued to grow.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07743190RecruitingPhase 2
Lighter chemo for early-stage triple-negative breast cancer with high immune cells
This trial tests a less intense chemotherapy regimen (without one of the standard drugs) combined with immunotherapy for people with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer whose tumors have a high level of immune cells (TILs). The goal is to see if this approach is effective while reducing side effects.
Syracuse, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06889467Recruiting
Testing leftover fluid from lymph node biopsies to find lung cancer
This trial is for people who are scheduled for a lung cancer biopsy (EBUS-TBNA) because doctors suspect non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has spread to lymph nodes. It will test leftover fluid from the biopsy to see if it improves cancer detection. If your biopsy is negative but you still need surgery to remove lymph nodes, you can help us learn more about this new test.
