I-124 PET/CT Imaging for Thyroid Cancer
This study uses a special type of PET/CT scan (I-124) to see where thyroid cancer is in your body and how much radiation it would get from radioactive iodine therapy. It helps doctors plan treatment for people whose cancer may not respond to standard radioactive iodine or who are being considered for targeted medicines.
North Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06443268Recruiting
Stroke and quality of life study with caregivers
This study looks at quality of life for people who have had a recent stroke or mini-stroke, and their caregivers. You and a close relative or friend both take part in interviews and surveys over time.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT06447090RecruitingPhase 2
VMAC plus donor cells for AML relapse after transplant
This study tests a combination treatment called VMAC (a chemotherapy) plus DLI (donor immune cells) for people whose AML has returned after a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see if this approach can help control the leukemia again.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT06445881RecruitingPhase 2
Herbal medicine for lung cancer before and after surgery
This trial is testing whether adding a traditional Chinese herbal formula (Modified Si Jun Zi Tang) to standard treatment before and after surgery can help people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to see if the herbs improve outcomes and reduce side effects.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06445803RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T therapy for adults with certain blood cancers
This trial tests a type of immunotherapy called CAR-T cells that target two proteins (CD19 and CD22) on cancer cells. It may be an option for adults with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that has come back or not responded to earlier treatments.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18 years+ - NCT06444776Recruiting
Taste and saliva changes during radiotherapy for head & neck cancer
This study looks at how radiation therapy for head and neck cancer changes your sense of taste and saliva. It aims to better understand and manage these side effects.
Aarau, Canton of AargauAges 18 years+ - NCT04422366RecruitingPhase 3
9-valent HPV vaccine study for healthy Chinese women
This trial tests a 9-type HPV vaccine to see how well it works, how it helps the body build protection, and whether it’s safe. It’s for healthy Chinese women who have not had HPV vaccination before and meet specific health and timing requirements.
Liuzhou, GuangxiAges 20–45 - NCT05284539RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus immunotherapy for mutated advanced lung cancer
This trial studies whether combining platinum chemotherapy with immune “checkpoint” medicine works better for people with stage IV lung cancer that has EGFR, ALK, or ROS1 mutations. It focuses on tumors that have grown again after first-line treatment.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT06222801Recruiting
Cytokinetic therapy study for adults with cancer
This study collects information from people with cancer who receive a special treatment called cytogenetic therapy, which uses your own cells to attack the tumor. The goal is to learn more about this treatment and its results.
MoscowAges 18–95 - NCT05720260RecruitingPhase 2
Test immunotherapy plus hormone therapy and an AKT blocker
This trial tests whether combining immunotherapy, hormone therapy, and an AKT-blocking drug can control ER-positive advanced breast cancer in women whose cancer is resistant to hormone treatment. It may help shrink tumors and slow disease by targeting several pathways at once.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT06449664Recruiting
Exercise program for men on hormone therapy for prostate cancer
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program can help men with prostate cancer stay stronger and feel better during combined radiation and hormone therapy. You may be able to join if you are about to start these treatments and are otherwise healthy enough to exercise.
StockholmAges 50–80 - NCT06449937Recruiting
Local liver treatment for colorectal cancer that has spread
