Study of a new drug for PIK3CA-mutated HR+ HER2- breast cancer
This early-stage study tests the safety and tolerability of TOS-358 in women with HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has a specific gene change (PIK3CA). It may help learn whether this targeted treatment is safe enough to move forward.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05696626RecruitingPhase 3
Test a new pill plus abemaciclib versus standard therapy
This Phase 3 study compares lasofoxifene plus abemaciclib versus fulvestrant plus abemaciclib for ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has an ESR1 mutation. It looks for better tumor control in people whose cancer has progressed on hormone therapy (an aromatase inhibitor) and who meet specific safety and testing requirements.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05691036Recruiting
Studying bile acid levels and genes in pregnancy itching
This study looks at bile acid levels and possible genetic changes in people with persistent pregnancy itching. The goal is to better understand the cause of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy and related pregnancy outcomes.
Chandigarh, ChandigarhAges 21–45 - NCT05678309Recruiting
Study to create a patient library for itch without a cause
This trial sets up a patient library for people who have itching with no clear underlying skin or medical cause. It aims to collect patient input and experiences to improve understanding and support for this condition.
BrestAges 18–99 - NCT05702398RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Vitamin A and niacinamide for high-risk skin cancer
This early trial tests whether adding vitamin A and niacinamide (a form of vitamin B3) can help people with a history of certain skin cancers reduce new disease. It is designed for adults with specific prior skin cancer or skin lesion treatment patterns.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT05704647RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab plus relatlimab for melanoma in the brain
This Phase 2 study tests whether nivolumab plus relatlimab can shrink or control melanoma that has spread to the brain. It may help by boosting the immune system to attack the cancer, including melanoma in brain areas that can’t be treated with prior focused radiation.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05677802Recruiting
Stress-reduction program for newly diagnosed triple-negative breast cancer
This study tests whether a structured stress-reduction program can help people with newly diagnosed triple-negative breast cancer (stages I–III). The goal is to see if the program is practical and beneficial for patients during treatment.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05688904RecruitingPhase 1
Topical imipramine with light treatment for skin pain relief
This Phase 1 study tests whether applying imipramine cream to the skin affects pain and effectiveness when combined with a light-based skin treatment (photodynamic therapy). It’s mainly looking at safety and early signs of benefit for people with certain sun-damaged skin areas.
Fairborn, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05704062Recruiting
Breast MRI during chemotherapy to measure treatment response
This study uses breast MRI scans to see whether neoadjuvant (before-surgery) chemotherapy is working. If you qualify, you’ll have MRI scans to help doctors understand how your breast cancer responds to standard treatment.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18 years+ - NCT05684367Recruiting
Exercise program to rebuild stamina and energy after breast cancer
This study tests whether a structured exercise program can help older adults with breast cancer regain stamina and reduce fatigue. It focuses on people who are still dealing with moderate fatigue after finishing certain breast cancer treatments.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 60–105 - NCT05695222Recruiting
Skin cancer staging study for adults with squamous cell cancer
This study looks at how doctors stage (classify the extent of) a type of skin cancer called cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. You may be helping researchers by allowing your clinical data to be used for research.
