Fewer radiation sessions may be just as effective for thymic tumors after surgery
Disease control Not yet recruitingThis clinical trial is testing a shorter, more intense course of radiation therapy (called hypofractionated radiotherapy) for people who have had surgery for thymic epithelial tumors, including thymoma and thymic carcinoma. The goal is to see if this approach can keep the tumor f…

More chemo before surgery: better odds for rare thymic cancer?
Disease control Not yet recruitingThis study tests whether 6 cycles of chemotherapy before surgery is better than 3 cycles for people with a rare type of thymus gland tumor. About 116 adults with locally advanced but removable tumors will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups. The goal is to see…

Heated chemo after surgery shows promise for rare chest cancer spread
Disease control Not yet recruitingThis study looks at whether combining a special surgery (electrocautery) with heated chemotherapy given directly into the chest can help people with thymic tumors that have spread to the chest lining. About 70 participants will receive the treatment and be followed for up to 3 ye…

Heated chemo during surgery may fight chest tumor spread
Disease control Not yet recruitingThis study compares surgery alone to surgery plus heated chemotherapy (HITOC) for people with thymic tumors that have spread to the lining of the chest. About 202 participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two groups. The goal is to see if adding HITOC helps keep the ca…

New hope for rare thymic cancer: targeted drug trial launches
Disease control Not yet recruitingThis study tests a new drug, sacituzumab tirumotecan, in 38 people with advanced thymic epithelial tumors that have worsened after at least one prior treatment. The drug is an antibody-drug conjugate designed to target and kill cancer cells. The goal is to see if it can shrink tu…
