This study tests the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab in 200 people with advanced solid tumors (breast, lung, GI, and others). Researchers use each person's tumor DNA to see if it predicts a response. Participants get the same dose every 3 weeks. The goal is to see if DNA analysis…

This program provides early access to cretostimogene grenadenorepvec, a virus-based therapy, for patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer that has not responded to standard BCG treatment. Eligible participants have a specific type of bladder cancer (CIS with or without hi…

This phase 2 trial tests whether a patient's own white blood cells, genetically modified in a lab to recognize and attack their specific tumor mutations, can shrink metastatic cancers. Participants include people with several advanced solid tumors or multiple myeloma who have exh…

This early-phase study tests a chemotherapy drug (gemcitabine) given as a mist to breathe in. It is for people whose solid tumors have spread to the lungs and who have no standard treatment options. The main goal is to find the safest dose and watch for side effects. Up to 44 par…

This phase 2 trial tests whether riluzole, a drug already approved for ALS, can prevent the cognitive problems (often called 'chemo brain') that many cancer patients face during chemotherapy. The study will enroll 24 adults with various cancers who are about to start chemotherapy…

This study tests whether taking a short chain fatty acid supplement can reduce gut-related side effects in people receiving radiation therapy for cancers in the abdomen or pelvis. About 122 adults will be randomly assigned to receive either the supplement or a placebo. The goal i…

This study tests a behavioral program to help women who have had pelvic radiation use vaginal dilators more regularly. Dilators can prevent or treat vaginal narrowing that makes exams or sex painful. 88 women will be randomly assigned to either the program (with coping strategies…

This study tests whether riluzole, a drug already used for ALS, can help cancer survivors who struggle with memory, focus, and mental clarity after treatment — a condition called cancer-related cognitive impairment. Researchers will measure changes in a brain protein called BDNF …

This study tests a program for older adults (65+) with cancer and mild memory issues, along with their spouse or caregiver. Over six video sessions, the pair learns strategies to manage challenges. The goal is to see if the program reduces distress and improves quality of life. A…

This study collects blood, urine, saliva, and tumor tissue from 500 adults with urothelial cancer (bladder, ureter, or urethra) and healthy volunteers. Researchers will analyze the samples to find genetic differences between normal and cancer cells. The goal is to better understa…

This study follows families with a history of inherited kidney cancer to learn more about the disease's genetic causes and how it progresses. Researchers will collect blood, tissue, and urine samples from affected individuals and their relatives. The goal is to identify new genes…

This study enrolls 7,000 people with various cancers who have had or will have treatment aimed at a cure. Researchers collect blood, tissue, urine, and saliva samples over time to look for tiny bits of cancer DNA left behind. The goal is to find any remaining cancer as early as p…

This study follows 1,100 adults with rare urinary tract cancers, such as unusual bladder, kidney, testicular, or penile cancers. Researchers will collect medical records, blood and tumor samples, and imaging over many years to understand how these cancers grow and respond to trea…

This trial asks whether five advanced AI models can match the treatment recommendations of expert tumor boards for cancer patients. Using 100 standardized synthetic cases across breast, lung, urological, digestive, and gynecological cancers, each AI and two independent tumor boar…

This study looks at how many opioid pain pills patients actually take after surgery for bladder, kidney, or prostate cancer. About 684 adults will report their opioid use 30 days after leaving the hospital. The study also tests whether a simple pamphlet helps people safely dispos…

This study will enroll 200 adults aged 60 or older who are scheduled for major surgery for urologic cancer. Researchers want to see if an artificial intelligence analysis of a standard heart test (ECG) taken before surgery can predict whether a patient will suffer heart injury or…

This study looks at how the bacteria in your gut might cause stomach issues like diarrhea and colitis when you take certain cancer drugs called immune checkpoint inhibitors. Researchers will collect stool, blood, and tissue samples from 800 people with melanoma, lung cancer, or g…

This study tests two navigation systems—3D Slicer and Siemens Monaco—to help surgeons locate and remove abnormal lymph nodes during urologic cancer surgery. The goal is to see if these image-guided tools make the procedure simpler and more precise. Twenty adults with suspected or…

This study is collecting information on side effects from proton therapy in 5,000 adults with many types of cancer. Researchers will track both short-term and long-term side effects and link them to the details of each patient's treatment plan. The goal is to better predict who m…

This study aims to collect and analyze tumor samples from 10,000 adults with advanced solid cancers (like breast, lung, or colon cancer) to create a province-wide gene database. The goal is to help doctors identify which targeted drugs or clinical trials might work best for each …

This study looks at how well different fluids (albumin and Ringer's solution) increase blood volume during laparoscopic surgery. About 60 adults having abdominal surgery will receive one of three fluid types. The goal is to see which fluid keeps the heart and blood vessels workin…

This study is testing whether tiny particles in the blood, called extracellular vesicles, can predict nerve damage caused by chemotherapy. Researchers will follow 120 adults with various cancers who are receiving specific chemo drugs. Participants give blood samples and answer qu…

This study surveys 500 surgeons and advanced practice providers across the U.S. to see how often they prescribe blood thinners after cancer surgery to prevent dangerous blood clots. The goal is to understand current practices and find ways to improve care. No new treatments are b…

This study is looking at how cancer genetic testing works in people from different ethnic backgrounds. Researchers will collect blood samples and genetic information from 1,800 adults with various solid tumors. The goal is to find cancer-related gene mutations and see if current …

This study tests a new type of CT scanner called HyperSight, designed to produce clearer images during radiation therapy for cancer. About 50 adults with various cancers will receive their daily radiation using both the new and standard imaging. Researchers will compare image qua…

This study is testing a web-based application that lets cancer patients report side effects from radiation therapy in real time. The goal is to see if this tool helps doctors spot and address complications sooner. About 30 patients with gynecologic, urologic, or breast cancer wil…

This study is testing whether a blood test that looks for tumor DNA (ctDNA) can find cancer returning earlier than standard scans. About 100 people with different solid tumors will give blood samples after treatment. The goal is to see if early detection can lead to better treatm…
