EphA2-targeted CAR-DC and CAR-T cell therapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new combination therapy using your own immune cells (CAR-T and CAR-DC) that are specially trained to attack a protein called EphA2 found on your lung cancer cells. It is for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer whose cancer has continued to grow after other treatments.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–70 - NCT06974604RecruitingPhase 2
Mouthwash to prevent mouth sores from Datopotamab deruxtecan
This trial tests if a dexamethasone mouthwash can prevent painful mouth sores (stomatitis) caused by the cancer drug Datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd). It's for people with certain types of advanced lung or breast cancer who have already tried other treatments.
