VULVAR CANCER

This study is testing the drug T-DXd (Enhertu) in 100 adults with advanced HER2-positive solid tumors who have already tried other treatments and have no good options left. The goal is to see how well the drug works in real-world settings, including how many patients respond and …

This study tests whether a single infusion of a patient's own genetically engineered immune cells (E7 TCR-T cells) can shrink or eliminate HPV-related cancers before the patient receives standard treatment like chemo-radiation or surgery. The trial enrolls 15 adults with advanced…

This study tests whether adding tivozanib (a drug that targets blood vessel growth) to atezolizumab (an immunotherapy) can help the immune system attack cancers that normally resist immunotherapy. The trial includes people with several cancer types like bile duct, pancreatic, pro…

This study is testing a new experimental drug called GI-101, given alone or with pembrolizumab or lenvatinib, in people with advanced or metastatic solid tumors (cancers that have spread). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and can shrink or control tumors. About 317 adults w…

This phase II trial is testing whether the immunotherapy drug dostarlimab, alone or combined with bevacizumab, can control recurrent gynecological clear cell carcinoma better than standard chemotherapy. About 198 women with this rare cancer type will be randomly assigned to one o…

This study tests a treatment called electrochemotherapy for women whose vulvar cancer has come back. It combines a chemotherapy drug (bleomycin) with electric pulses to help the drug enter cancer cells more effectively. The goal is to shrink tumors and avoid major surgery. Only 1…

This study aims to see if matching the extent of surgery to the specific type of vulvar cancer (based on HPV infection and p53 gene changes) can reduce the chance of the cancer coming back. About 249 women with early-stage vulvar squamous cell carcinoma will take part. The goal i…

This study tests whether using MRI scans to guide brachytherapy (a type of internal radiation) can better target tumors in gynecologic cancers like cervical, uterine, vaginal, vulvar, and bladder cancers. The goal is to see if MRI guidance reduces radiation exposure to nearby hea…

This study tests a drug called belzutifan in people with a rare, hard-to-treat type of gynecologic cancer called clear cell carcinoma. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink tumors or stop them from growing. About 32 participants will receive the drug, and researchers will mon…

This study compares a dye called ICG alone against the standard two-method approach (ICG plus a radioactive tracer) to find cancer in lymph nodes of women with early vulvar cancer. About 58 women will take part. If ICG alone works just as well, it could simplify surgery and reduc…

This study looks at whether the things people buy at stores—like pain relievers or digestive aids—could be early warning signs of cancer. Researchers will compare the shopping habits of 2900 people, some diagnosed with cancer and some not, to see if certain purchases happen more …

This study tests a personalized physical activity program for women over 60 with gynecologic cancers who are receiving chemotherapy or other systemic treatments. The program includes a wearable activity tracker and a smartphone app, plus optional features like an exercise partner…

This study tests whether Reiki therapy can reduce anxiety and pain in people receiving brachytherapy for gynecologic cancers. 70 participants will either receive Reiki or standard care during their treatment. Researchers will measure changes in anxiety, pain, and mood using quest…

This study tests whether using a virtual reality headset during brachytherapy (a type of internal radiation for cervical cancer) can reduce pain, anxiety, and the need for medication. Twenty women will try VR during one treatment session and compare it to a session without VR. Th…

This study looks at whether adding pelvic floor physical therapy before standard radiation treatment can help reduce pain and sexual problems in women with cervical, vaginal, vulvar, uterine, or anal cancer. About 20 participants will receive education on using a vaginal dilator …

This study tests whether a daily probiotic pill (Pendulum Glucose Control) can safely reduce stomach and bowel problems in people receiving radiation for cancers of the pelvis, such as prostate, gynecologic, or lower GI cancers. About 20 adults will take the probiotic during thei…

This study tests whether a mobile cognitive training app can reduce 'chemobrain'—memory and thinking problems caused by chemotherapy—in people with gynecologic cancers. Sixty-four participants will use the app on their own phones while undergoing chemotherapy and complete thinkin…

This study will test tumor samples from 350 adults with gynecological cancers (endometrial, ovarian, cervical, vulvar, and vaginal) to see how often they have high levels of the HER2 protein. Researchers will use two standard lab tests to measure HER2. The goal is to learn how co…

This study is observing 300 women with female sexual organs who are receiving radiotherapy for certain cancers. Researchers want to understand why some patients have more sexual side effects than others. They will track sexual quality of life and look at radiation doses to find p…

This study tests whether giving gynecologic cancer patients a list of questions to ask their doctor improves their confidence, reduces distress, and builds trust. About 70 adults with newly diagnosed or suspected gynecologic cancer will either receive the question list or usual c…

This pilot study is testing whether a 7-day integrative oncology retreat called 'Via Shalva' is practical and helpful for women who have finished primary treatment for breast or gynecologic cancer. Thirty participants will either attend the retreat or receive usual follow-up care…

This study is testing whether regular patient surveys and a special blood test (circulating tumor DNA) can spot vulva cancer returning earlier than standard check-ups. About 295 women with vulva cancer will fill out symptom surveys every four months and give blood samples for two…

This study follows 200 women with gynecologic cancer and their partners to see how sexual function changes over time. Researchers use questionnaires at diagnosis, 6 months, and 12 months after treatment. The goal is to understand when sexual counseling might be most helpful, with…

This study looks at whether changes in a blood marker called CRP can help predict how well immunotherapy works in women with advanced gynecologic cancers (cervical, endometrial, ovarian, or vulvar). Researchers will track CRP levels in 120 women receiving immunotherapy plus chemo…

This study compares two common risk assessment tools—the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and the POSSUM score—to see which better predicts complications in women undergoing surgery for gynecologic cancers. Researchers will track complications, hospital stay length, and 30-day de…

This study aims to learn how gene and protein changes in gynecologic tumors affect cancer behavior and treatment response. Researchers will collect tumor tissue and blood samples from 1,000 people with ovarian, uterine, cervical, or other gynecologic cancers. The goal is to bette…
