Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06530303RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized immune cell therapy for colorectal cancer
This trial tests a treatment made from your own immune cells (called TILs) that are taken from your tumor, grown in a lab, and given back to you along with immunotherapy. It is for people with advanced colon or rectum cancer who have run out of standard options.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 16–90 - NCT06532006RecruitingPhase 3
HLX22 plus trastuzumab and chemo for HER2+ stomach cancer
This trial tests adding a new drug, HLX22, to the standard combination of trastuzumab and chemotherapy for people with HER2-positive stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that hasn't been treated yet. The goal is to see if this three-drug mix works better than the usual two-drug approach.
Anaheim, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06532123Recruiting
Study on improving muscle control for bowel leakage
This trial tests a treatment to strengthen the muscles that control bowel movements in people with weak anal sphincters. It may help those who have trouble holding in stool or gas.
