Test azacitidine with vitamin C to improve DNA changes
This Phase 2 study tests whether combining azacitidine (a standard blood cancer medicine) with vitamin C helps improve disease control by changing DNA activity in high-risk blood cancers. It may be an option if you have certain types of higher-risk MDS, CMML, or low-blast AML and can meet safety requirements.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT02889666RecruitingPhase 1
Chemo plus surgery for recurrent lung cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests whether giving chemotherapy along with surgery is safe and tolerable for people with recurrent non-small cell lung cancer. It may help guide future treatment for cancer that has returned, especially if it has not spread to distant sites.
Changchun, JilinAges 18–75 - NCT06371586RecruitingPhase 2
Neo-Sequence 2: New drug combo for advanced stomach cancer
This trial tests a new treatment plan for advanced stomach cancer using chemotherapy, anti-angiogenesis therapy (to cut off tumor blood supply), and immunotherapy (to help your immune system fight cancer). The goal is to see if this combination works better before surgery.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06402188Recruiting
ColoSeal Device Study for Rectal Cancer Surgery
This study tests a new device called the ColoSeal ICD System that may help protect the reconnection of your bowel after surgery for rectosigmoid or rectal cancer. It is designed for people who are already scheduled for surgery that includes a temporary colostomy or ileostomy.
YerevanAges 18–70 - NCT04442516Recruiting
Testing kidney injury risk from cisplatin cancer treatment
This study looks at how cisplatin chemotherapy affects the kidneys. It may help doctors better predict and protect against kidney damage when patients start cisplatin.
London, OntarioAges 3 months+ - NCT05371353Recruiting
Study of how long HPV vaccine immunity lasts
This study checks how well the HPV (cancer-preventing) vaccine protection stays in your body over time. It may help confirm the vaccine’s “long-lasting” immune response and guide future vaccination confidence.
Yangchun, GuangdongAges 9–45 - NCT06363825RecruitingPhase 2
New combination therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of treatments for advanced liver cancer: a targeted therapy (apatinib), an immunotherapy (camrelizumab), and two local treatments (TAE and HAIC). It may be an option if you have a high tumor burden or a tumor thrombus in the portal vein and haven't had systemic treatment before.
FuzhouAges 18–80 - NCT04641936Recruiting
Urine tests to predict response to immunotherapy in bladder cancer
This study uses urine “omics” tests (detailed lab patterns from urine) to predict whether immunotherapy will work for people with metastatic urothelial (bladder/urinary tract) cancer. It may help doctors choose the right treatment sooner by identifying who is more likely to benefit.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT06153147Recruiting
Kidney & blood pressure in childhood cancer survivors
This study looks at kidney health and blood pressure in childhood cancer survivors. If you finished high-risk cancer therapy about 3 years ago, researchers want to see how your kidneys and blood pressure are doing now.
Toronto, OntarioAges Up to 19 years - NCT06296563RecruitingPhase 2
Testing adebrelimab, apatinib, and HAIC for bile duct cancer
This trial tests if adding a combination of immunotherapy (adebrelimab), a targeted drug (apatinib), and chemotherapy into the liver artery (HAIC) before and after surgery can help people with resectable intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (a type of bile duct cancer). The goal is to see if this approach improves outcomes.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT06354738Recruiting
Endometrial cancer study with genetic and surgical insights
This study looks at combining genetic testing with surgical exams to better understand endometrial cancer. It may help doctors see which treatments could work best for you.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT05817214RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus targeted drug for advanced cervical cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests cadonilimab (an immunotherapy medicine) combined with anlotinib (a targeted drug) for advanced or recurrent cervical cancer that has already been treated. It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth, especially if the cancer has a measurable area doctors can track.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT05068531Recruiting
Detecting early treatment failure in stage IV colon cancer
This study looks for early signs that treatment is not working in people with stage IV colon or rectal cancer that has spread only to the liver. It may help doctors adjust care sooner by using regular blood, stool, and tissue samples around liver procedures.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT05117723Recruiting
IPMN cyst database to help predict pancreatic cancer risk
This study collects information from people who have an IPMN cyst in the pancreas to help predict who may be at higher risk of pancreatic cancer. It may help your care team estimate risk and plan follow-up more effectively.
Fitzroy, VictoriaAges 18–90 - NCT04204837RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab for advanced skin squamous cell cancer
This trial studies nivolumab, an immune therapy, for skin squamous cell cancer that can’t be cured with surgery or radiation. It aims to see how well the treatment shrinks tumors and helps people live longer or longer without cancer growth.
GrazAges 18 years+ - NCT06327269RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Targeted therapy after liver transplant for high-risk liver cancer
This trial tests a targeted therapy (lenvatinib) given after a living-donor liver transplant to prevent high-risk liver cancer from coming back. It is for people whose cancer is aggressive or did not respond well to previous treatments.
Kaohsiung CityAges 18–75 - NCT06169956Recruiting
Study of nivolumab with chemo before lung cancer surgery
This study looks at how well the immunotherapy drug nivolumab (Opdivo) works when given with standard chemotherapy before surgery for people with a certain type of lung cancer that has not spread. It may help shrink the tumor before surgery.
Kempten (Allgäu), BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT06374173RecruitingPhase 1
Study of TGI-6 for advanced solid tumors
This study tests a new drug called TGI-6 in people with advanced solid tumors, including colorectal cancer and other cancers that have a specific marker (B7-H6). The goal is to see if it is safe and effective for those who have run out of standard treatment options.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06373055Recruiting
