This study is testing whether a short-term, low-calorie diet called a fasting mimicking diet (FMD) can help patients recover better after surgery for colorectal cancer. The diet is given in cycles after the operation and is designed to be easier to follow than complete fasting. R…

This study tests a combination of the drug abemaciclib with standard chemotherapy (FOLFOX or FOLFIRI) in 16 adults with advanced colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver and hasn't responded to at least two prior treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink…

This study aimed to compare three different immunotherapy drug regimens given before and after surgery for people with early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer. The goal was to see which approach best prevented the cancer from coming back. However, the trial was withdrawn before en…

This phase II trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (sintilimab) and immune-supporting agents to a medium-dose chemo-radiation regimen can improve outcomes for people with advanced esophageal cancer. About 50 participants will receive the combination, along with probio…

This study tests a combination of three drugs—bevacizumab, nab-paclitaxel, and a platinum drug—as a second-line treatment for people with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer that does not have certain genetic mutations. The cancer must have worsened after first-line …

This study tests whether giving targeted drugs based on the genetic makeup of a person's advanced salivary gland cancer can shrink tumors or stop them from growing. About 88 adults with cancer that has spread or come back are enrolled. Researchers are checking how well these trea…

This study looks at using a targeted drug called osimertinib together with precise brain radiation as the first treatment for people with a certain type of lung cancer (EGFR-mutant) that has spread to the brain and causes symptoms. Researchers reviewed medical records of 300 pati…

This study tests a two-step treatment for people with early-stage MALT lymphoma, a slow-growing cancer of the lymph nodes. First, patients take a targeted drug called orelabrutinib. Then, based on how well the tumor responds, they receive an ultra-low dose of radiation (4Gy) to a…

This study compares 4 months versus 6 months of chemotherapy (capecitabine and oxaliplatin) in 1024 stomach cancer patients who had surgery. The goal is to see if the shorter treatment works just as well to prevent cancer from coming back, while causing fewer side effects. Partic…

This phase 3 trial compares two chemotherapy regimens for women with non-triple negative breast cancer after surgery. One group gets epirubicin plus cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxel (EC-T), the other gets paclitaxel plus carboplatin (PCb). The study includes 1560 participan…

This phase 2 trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug cadonilimab (AK104) to standard chemoradiotherapy can improve outcomes for people with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. About 41 participants will receive the drug before, during…

This study tests whether adding precise radiation (stereotactic radiosurgery) to standard drug therapy can better control brain metastases in people with non-small cell lung cancer. Participants have brain tumors that remain after 3-6 months of a targeted drug. The goal is to see…

This study looks at whether artificial intelligence can accurately determine the depth of early esophageal cancer from endoscopic images. Researchers will review past records and images from 890 patients who had their tumors removed. The goal is to see if AI can help doctors deci…

This study looks at whether testing stool (feces) for certain DNA changes and bacteria genes can help find stomach cancer early. Researchers will follow 3000 people, including those with and without cancer, to see how well the test works. The goal is to improve early diagnosis an…

This study tests a nurse-led program that starts at least a week before liver cancer surgery. It includes exercise, nutrition advice, mental support, and help quitting smoking or drinking. The goal is to see if this program helps patients stay stronger, feel less anxious, and hav…

This study tests whether drinking cola can help relieve sudden food blockages in the esophagus for people with esophageal cancer. Fifty participants will be randomly assigned to drink cola or receive standard care, and researchers will check if the blockage clears within 24 hours…

This study looks at how anemia changes blood flow in the smallest blood vessels (microcirculation) in patients having open surgery for gastric cancer. Researchers will compare 27 anemic patients with 27 non-anemic patients, all receiving standard goal-directed fluid therapy. They…

This study was designed to see if adding chemotherapy to radiation therapy after incomplete surgery for thymoma or thymic carcinoma could improve survival. It planned to enroll adults aged 18-75 who had incomplete tumor removal. However, the trial was withdrawn before any partici…

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…

This study looks at 197 women with advanced breast cancer to compare survival between those whose tumors lost estrogen receptors (ER) and those with triple-negative disease. Researchers used a special PET scan to track receptor changes. The goal is to understand how these changes…

This study looks at whether tiny particles called exosomes, found in blood and lung fluid, can predict how well treatment works in advanced lung cancer patients with fluid buildup around the lungs. Researchers will collect samples from 100 patients before and during standard ther…

This study, run by Fudan University and local health authorities, uses computer models to predict the best way to use dengue vaccines in Yunnan, China. Researchers will collect blood samples from 220 residents to measure antibody levels and simulate different vaccination scenario…
