- NCT04787289RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing two bevacizumab doses with chemotherapy for ovarian cancer
This Phase 2 trial compares two standard doses of bevacizumab (a medicine that targets blood supply to tumors) added to chemotherapy in people with advanced ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. It’s for ovarian cancers that have returned or grown again soon after prior platinum chemotherapy, with the goal of improving control of the disease.

Niraparib after early ovarian cancer chemo—short vs long
This trial tests whether taking niraparib (a maintenance anti-cancer pill) for a shorter time after 3 cycles of platinum chemotherapy works as well as taking it after 6 cycles. It is for people with advanced ovarian cancer that has been fully removed (no visible tumor) and is “HRD-positive,” meaning it has certain DNA repair weaknesses.

This trial tests a new type of cell therapy called B7-H3 CAR T cells for children and young adults with high-risk osteosarcoma that hasn't spread or worsened after standard chemotherapy. The treatment uses your own immune cells that are modified to attack a protein (B7-H3) found on cancer cells.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 21 years - NCT07669220RecruitingPhase 2
Short radiation, immunotherapy, and chemo for advanced rectal cancer
This trial compares a new treatment approach—short-course radiation followed by an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 inhibitor) and chemotherapy (FOLFOX)—to the standard long-course chemoradiation for people with a specific type of advanced rectal cancer that is pMMR/MSS. The goal is to see if the shorter treatment works as well or better.

Shorter radiation with chemo and immunotherapy for high-risk colon cancer
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation combined with chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 inhibitor) for people with a specific type of high-risk colon cancer that has not spread. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor before surgery and improve outcomes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - 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+ - NCT06766578RecruitingPhase 2
Low-dose radiation plus immunotherapy and chemo before gastric cancer surgery
This trial tests a new combination of low-dose radiation, an immunotherapy drug (tirelizumab), and chemotherapy (SOX) given before surgery for locally advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink tumors more effectively.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT06866964RecruitingPhase 2
