Jacksonville, FloridaAges 16 years+ - NCT04410302Recruiting
Personalized tumor research for bladder, lung, stomach, and liver cancers
This study uses a small sample of your tumor to grow it in the lab, which may help researchers understand your cancer better and find treatments that work for you.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 21–100 - NCT07524114Recruiting
Blood test to find leftover cancer after treatment
This study uses a blood test to look for tiny bits of cancer DNA after you finish treatment. It may help doctors know if cancer is still there and guide next steps.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07780188Recruiting
Lean beef in a healthy meal plan for teens with PCOS
This study tests whether adding lean beef to a healthy meal plan can help teens with PCOS improve their health. You'll follow a special diet and wear a small monitor to track your blood sugar, and the study may help you feel better and manage your condition.
College Station, TexasAges 11–17 - NCT06844383RecruitingPhase 2
Talazoparib with or without enzalutamide for prostate cancer after prior treatment
This study tests a drug called talazoparib, either alone or combined with enzalutamide, in people with prostate cancer that has spread and has a specific genetic change. The goal is to see if this treatment can help control the cancer after previous therapies have stopped working.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07773090Recruiting
Stenting before mini-keyhole kidney stone surgery
This trial is looking at whether placing a small tube (stent) in the ureter before a type of keyhole surgery for kidney stones helps with outcomes like pain and success of the procedure. It aims to see if this pre-treatment makes the surgery easier, potentially reducing complications and improving stone removal.
CairoAges 18–70 - NCT07623369RecruitingPhase 1
First-in-Human Study of HH160 for Advanced Solid Tumors
This is an early-stage trial testing a new drug called HH160 in patients with advanced cancer (solid tumors). Researchers want to find the right dose and learn how well it works and what side effects it causes.
Waratah, New South WalesAges 18–75 - NCT06863272RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of ifinatamab deruxtecan for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug, ifinatamab deruxtecan, either alone or in combination with other treatments, for men with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer that has worsened despite hormone therapy. It aims to see if this approach can help shrink or slow the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07480356RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new bladder cancer treatment (TARA-002) vs standard chemo
This trial compares a new medicine called TARA-002, given directly into the bladder, to the doctor's choice of standard chemotherapy. It is for people with a high-grade, non-muscle invasive bladder cancer that has not been treated with BCG or has not had BCG recently.
Queen Creek, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07265947RecruitingPhase 2
Testing dabogratinib for low-grade upper tract bladder cancer
This trial tests a new targeted therapy pill, dabogratinib, for people with low-grade upper tract urothelial carcinoma (a type of cancer in the tubes that carry urine from kidneys to bladder). It may be an option if you have tumor tissue left after a biopsy and haven't had certain prior treatments.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07454603Recruiting
Blood test for prostate cancer risk
This trial tests a new blood test to help decide if you need a prostate biopsy. It may help men with high PSA levels or an abnormal rectal exam avoid unnecessary procedures.
Branford, ConnecticutAges 45–80 - NCT05805371RecruitingPhase 1
PSCA CAR-T cells with or without radiation for prostate cancer
This Phase 1 study tests a prostate cancer treatment made of PSCA-targeted CAR-T cells, with or without radiation, to help control advanced prostate cancer. It aims to find a safe treatment approach and see how well it works in people whose cancer has PSCA.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07218380RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Vepugratinib for advanced bladder or urinary tract cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug called Vepugratinib for people with advanced urinary tract cancer that has a specific change in the FGFR3 gene. It may be an option if you haven't had other treatments for advanced cancer and are looking for a new approach.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07206056RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
