Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 8–25 - NCT05029791Recruiting
Study of immune markers in treated metastatic melanoma
This study looks at immune and tumor “behavior” markers in people with metastatic melanoma after standard treatment. It may help researchers understand why treatment works for some people and not others by testing blood and skin tumor samples.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT05029999RecruitingPhase 1
Test drugs for HER2-negative advanced breast cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a combination of immune-targeting drugs (a CD40 medicine and a substance that helps immune cells act) plus chemotherapy in people with HER2-negative advanced breast cancer that has progressed. It aims to find a safer dose and see whether the treatment can shrink tumors or slow the cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–99 - NCT05032768Recruiting
Study links between skin bacteria and radiation skin reactions
This study looks at how changes in the skin’s normal bacteria (microbiome) relate to getting redness, irritation, or rash after breast radiation. It may help doctors predict who is more likely to have skin side effects after reconstruction and radiation.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05033678Recruiting
Teledermoscopy and AI help review your skin spot images
This study tests a way for doctors to send clear images of your skin spot to be reviewed remotely using teledermoscopy (digital images of the skin). It may help speed up specialist input and improve how skin spots are assessed.
LundAges 15 years+ - NCT05035745RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Selinexor plus talazoparib for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests selinexor plus talazoparib in people with advanced, treatment-resistant solid tumors and, separately, advanced triple-negative breast cancer. It aims to see whether this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth when standard options have not worked.
SingaporeAges 18–99 - NCT05035836RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug after early HER2-positive breast cancer surgery
This trial tests zanidatamab, a type of targeted antibody treatment, in people with early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer to see how well it works and how safe it is. Because it’s a single-arm pilot study, everyone in the study gets the drug, and you’ll likely be asked to undergo standard surgery if appropriate.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05039216Recruiting
Biobank for inflammatory arthritis and osteoporosis
This study collects and stores health information and samples for people with long-term inflammatory arthritis (like rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis, or psoriatic arthritis) or with osteoporosis. It helps researchers understand these conditions and may lead to better future treatments.
ToulouseAges 18–99 - NCT05037825Recruiting
Study gut microbes with immune therapy in several solid cancers
This trial looks at how the gut microbiome (the bacteria in your digestive system) relates to outcomes when you take standard immune “checkpoint” cancer medicines. If you’re eligible, they’ll collect stool samples while you receive treatment for certain cancers.
Elizabethtown, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT05039801RecruitingPhase 1
Study drug IACS-6274 tested for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 study tests the experimental drug IACS-6274, sometimes with bevacizumab and paclitaxel, in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It aims to find the safest dose and to learn whether the treatment can shrink or control cancer for certain tumor mutation types.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05042258RecruitingPhase 4
Dupilumab to improve sleep and itch in children with eczema
This trial studies whether dupilumab can improve daily body clock (circadian function), sleep, and itching in children with moderate-to-severe eczema that isn’t well controlled by creams. It may help kids who are having significant sleep trouble and ongoing itch.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 6–17 - NCT05042687Recruiting
Compare a breast imaging scan with MRI in high-risk women
This study compares two ways of imaging the breast—molecular breast imaging (a scan that uses a small radioactive tracer) and standard breast MRI—to better find or rule out breast cancer. You may join if you are considered high risk and already have a breast MRI planned, and you can do both tests close together.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05044689Recruiting
Study to find risk factors for breast and colon cancer
This study is trying to understand what factors might raise the risk of breast cancer and colon (large bowel) cancer. You may be enrolled either if you have a confirmed cancer diagnosis (cases) or if you do not have cancer (controls).
Ile-Ife, Osun StateAges Any age - NCT05047094Recruiting
DaRT radiation plus pembrolizumab for head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether a targeted internal radiation treatment (DaRT) combined with pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) can shrink recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell cancer that cannot be fully removed with surgery. It may help by making cancer more visible to the immune system while delivering localized radiation to a tumor area.
JerusalemAges 18 years+ - NCT05053555Recruiting
High-dose radiation treatment for hard-to-remove liver tumors
This study uses a form of targeted radiation placed inside/near the liver to treat liver tumors that can’t be surgically removed. It’s meant to shrink or control tumors, especially when they sit near blood vessels or other sensitive organs.
Houston, TexasAges 19 years+ - NCT05056350Recruiting
Coaching to help you return to work after breast cancer
This study tests whether a tailored coaching program can help people with non-metastatic breast cancer return to work in a way that fits their physical and emotional needs. It’s for people who have finished most cancer treatments and are dealing with job-related difficulties.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT05057598Recruiting
Online study for women with breast cancer experiences
This study asks women with breast cancer to take part in an online, before-and-after research project. It may help researchers understand your experiences and improve support for people living with breast cancer, including those with relapse or spread to other parts of the body.
Milan, MIAges 18–90 - NCT05056818Recruiting
Compare two types of breast X-ray images for reading accuracy
This study compares a computer-generated (“synthetic”) mammogram to the standard full-field digital mammogram to see which gives better image-reading results. It may help improve how breast images are interpreted in everyday practice.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05056857Recruiting
Study immune-web changes in ER+ breast cancer on tamoxifen
This trial studies how the immune system forms “neutrophil extracellular traps” (immune web material) in people with ER-positive breast cancer who take tamoxifen. It aims to understand whether tamoxifen changes this immune activity over time, which may help explain how it works.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05058183Recruiting
Testing shorter chemotherapy for early HER2 or triple‑negative breast cancer
This study looks at whether some people with stage 1 HER2-positive or “triple-negative” breast cancer may safely need less (de-escalated) chemotherapy after surgery. The goal is to keep the cancer risk low while reducing treatment intensity, using special blood testing over time.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05059444Recruiting
Blood test study to watch for cancer coming back
This study looks at whether blood tests can detect signs that cancer may return after curative-intent treatment. You would have blood drawn around your usual follow-up visits for up to 5 years, and your de-identified health data would be shared with study investigators.
