Lymph node disorder

This study tests whether adding the targeted therapy cabozantinib to standard immunotherapy (nivolumab and ipilimumab) helps people with advanced kidney cancer live longer. About 1,175 adults with kidney cancer that has spread will receive either the usual treatment or the usual …

This study tests a combination of three drugs—radium-223, M3814, and avelumab—in men with advanced prostate cancer that no longer responds to hormone therapy and has spread to the bone. The goal is to see if the combination can slow cancer growth better than radium-223 alone. The…

This study tests whether the antibiotic doxycycline can prevent or slow the enlargement of heart arteries in children with Kawasaki disease. About 26 children with already enlarged coronary arteries will receive doxycycline for three weeks. The goal is to see if the drug blocks a…

This early-phase trial tests whether adding the blood pressure drug propranolol to standard immunotherapy and chemotherapy can help shrink bladder cancer that has spread to lymph nodes before surgery. The study enrolls 12 patients and primarily checks for safety and side effects.…

This study is testing whether a precise form of radiation called proton therapy can control head and neck cancer after surgery as well as standard X-ray radiation, but with fewer side effects. About 174 adults with newly diagnosed head and neck cancer will receive either proton t…

This phase 2 trial is testing whether surgery and radiation can help men whose prostate cancer has come back and spread to a few spots in the body. About 20 participants will receive either surgery to remove the spread tumors or targeted radiation, or both. The main goal is to se…

This study looks at a special ultrasound technique to check lymph nodes during surgery in breast cancer patients who have already had chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this method can accurately tell whether cancer remains in the lymph nodes, helping doctors decide exactly whic…

This study is testing an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that helps doctors read thyroid ultrasound images. Researchers want to see if the AI can make diagnoses more consistent and faster than traditional methods. About 2,000 adults from 16 hospitals in China will take part. Th…

This study compares open D3 surgery with laparoscopic CME surgery for right-sided colon cancer in 128 patients. The goal is to see if laparoscopic surgery leads to less pain, fewer complications, and faster recovery, while still being as effective at removing cancer. Researchers …

This study tests whether a new method of radiation therapy, which uses an MRI scan to plan treatment and a CT scan to deliver it, is feasible for treating pelvic lymph node metastases. Twenty adults with confirmed cancer spread to pelvic lymph nodes will receive stereotactic body…

This study looks at whether PET-CT scans can predict if non-small cell lung cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes. Researchers will compare two types of PET-CT scans (using different tracers) with the actual results from surgery. The goal is to see if these scans can help docto…
