Testing a switch to a different chemotherapy type after heart side effects
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study looks at whether people with solid tumors who develop heart-related side effects during a fluoropyrimidine chemotherapy can safely switch to a different fluoropyrimidine. It aims to see if the new option is feasible to use again when the first one caused cardiotoxicity.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a solid tumor (not leukemia/lymphoma)
- You had heart side effects while taking a fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy
- Your heart side effects were mild to moderate (grade 1 to 4)
- Your care team plans to try a re-challenge using a different fluoropyrimidine-based treatment
- You are not currently enrolled in a separate trial using experimental drugs

This trial tests a new drug called FTL001 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not improved with standard therapy. The goal is to see if it is safe and how well it works.
This early-phase study (Phase 1) tests Hemay181, a new cancer medicine, in people with advanced solid tumors that have not been controlled by standard treatment. The goal is to see how the medicine works in the body and whether it can shrink or control tumors safely.
This trial tests a new combination of two investigational drugs, 7MW3711 and JS207, for people with advanced solid tumors that no longer respond to standard treatments. It aims to see if this combination is safe and effective.
This trial tests a new antidote for people who have had severe or life-threatening side effects from fluorouracil or capecitabine chemotherapy. It aims to help the body recover faster and reduce harm from these drugs.
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (paclitaxel, ramucirumab, and tislelizumab) as a maintenance therapy after initial chemotherapy for advanced stomach or esophageal cancer. It aims to see if this switch helps keep the cancer from growing longer.
This study looks at how targeted cancer treatments affect the heart. If you are an adult with any type of cancer and are getting or will get chemotherapy (including targeted drugs), joining this study helps doctors understand heart risks better.
