Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07401615Recruiting
Repeat SBRT for Recurrent Lung Tumors
This trial tests giving another round of intense radiation (SBRT) to lung tumors that have come back after a previous SBRT treatment. It is for people who cannot have surgery and whose other cancer (if any) is under control.
Bergamo, BergamoAges 18 years+ - NCT07402200Recruiting
Indoor air pollutants and child health study
This study looks at how indoor air pollution affects children's health. It compares children with allergies or asthma to those without, to see if air quality plays a role.
MontpellierAges 8–12 - NCT07403630Recruiting
Tumor chemogenomic profiler for cancer patients of all ages
This trial uses a new testing platform to analyze the genes and proteins in your tumor, aiming to find the most effective treatments for people with cancer that has come back, is not responding to treatment, or has spread. It is designed for both children and adults with any type of blood cancer or solid tumor.
Palermo, PalermoAges 1 year+ - NCT07405086RecruitingPhase 4
Morning vs. afternoon immunotherapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial compares giving immunotherapy in the morning versus the afternoon to see if timing affects how well it works. It is for people with certain types of advanced or metastatic solid tumors who have not had this treatment before.
Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT07405333Recruiting
Coughing exercises vs breathing device after heart surgery in children
This study compares simple coughing exercises with a breathing device (incentive spirometry) to help children recover lung function faster after heart surgery. It may help reduce complications and shorten hospital stays.
Baghdad, Baghdad GovernorateAges 6–18 - NCT07405931Recruiting
