This trial tests whether acupuncture can help improve the immune system's response in people with cervical cancer that has spread, come back, or persists. It may be an option for those who cannot have surgery or radiation.

This study looks for lasting viral infection in women with advanced cervical cancer. The goal is to better understand how the virus behaves and may help choose future treatments.
This trial tests if electroacupuncture can reduce side effects from a type of cancer treatment called PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors (immunotherapy). If you are starting immunotherapy for the first time, this study may help manage common immune-related side effects.
This trial tests if adding electroacupuncture at a specific point (ST36, below the knee) to standard chemotherapy and immunotherapy can help people with lung cancer. It aims to improve treatment outcomes and quality of life.
This trial tests if adding acupuncture to standard immunotherapy and chemotherapy helps people with advanced lung cancer. It is for those who have not had treatment before and whose tumors have low PD-L1 levels.
This trial explores whether adding electroacupuncture (a gentle needle treatment with mild electric pulses) to standard immunotherapy after lung cancer surgery can help prevent the cancer from coming back. It is designed for people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer who have already had chemotherapy.
This trial tests if acupuncture can prevent nerve damage caused by certain chemotherapy drugs. It is for people with early-stage breast, stomach, colon, lung, or ovarian cancer who have not had nerve symptoms before.
