Recruiting studies
- NCT05019690RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test drug combo for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial studies how well apatinib plus albumin-bound paclitaxel works for advanced triple-negative breast cancer that has come back or spread. It may help shrink tumors and control the disease by targeting cancer growth in more than one way.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT06641791RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two radiation approaches for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial compares two types of radiation therapy to relieve symptoms from advanced head and neck cancer that cannot be cured. One is a shorter, more precise treatment (SBRT), and the other is standard radiation. The goal is to see which better improves quality of life and reduces side effects.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT07004582Recruiting
Lab study using mini-tumors to test prostate cancer treatments
This trial uses leftover tumor tissue from biopsies or brachytherapy to grow mini-tumors in the lab. Researchers want to test different treatments on these mini-tumors to find the best options for patients with high-risk or recurrent prostate cancer.
Heerlen, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06908668RecruitingPhase 2
Adebrelimab plus chemo with or without radiation before breast cancer surgery
This trial tests adding a drug called adebrelimab to standard chemotherapy and possibly radiation, given before surgery for breast cancer that is HER2-negative and locally advanced. The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink tumors more effectively, potentially allowing for breast-conserving surgery.
BeijingAges 18–70 - NCT07202364RecruitingPhase 2
Study of YL202 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called YL202 for people with advanced solid tumors (like lung, colon, or cervical cancer) who have already tried 1-2 standard treatments. It aims to see if YL202 can shrink tumors or slow their growth.

PQ203 for advanced solid tumors like triple-negative breast cancer
This early-phase trial tests a new drug called PQ203 for people with advanced solid tumors, including triple-negative breast cancer, that have stopped responding to standard treatments. It helps doctors learn whether the drug is safe and how it affects tumors.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05950087Recruiting
Blood tests after chemoradiotherapy for cervical cancer prognosis
This study looks at blood markers—tiny DNA from the blood (cfDNA) and minimal residual disease (MRD)—to better predict outcomes after standard chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced cervical cancer. It may help doctors identify who is more likely to do well and who may need closer follow-up or additional treatment planning.
Guiyang, GuizhouAges 18–75 - NCT06079671RecruitingPhase 3
Volrustomig for high-risk locally advanced cervical cancer
This trial tests a new medicine called volrustomig for women with locally advanced cervical cancer that has not spread. It is given along with standard chemoradiation and aims to improve outcomes.

Dalpiciclib plus letrozole for advanced HR+ HER2- breast cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs (dalpiciclib and letrozole) as a first treatment for advanced breast cancer that is hormone receptor positive and HER2 negative. It aims to find the best dose to slow or stop cancer growth.
Dalian, LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT07055399RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant immunotherapy with two drugs plus chemo for cervical cancer
This trial tests two immunotherapy drugs (iparomlimab and tuvonralimab) combined with chemotherapy before surgery for locally advanced cervical cancer. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes for patients who haven't had prior systemic treatment.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–70 - NCT07463261Recruiting
Rectal cancer surgery: with or without a temporary stoma
This trial compares two ways of doing rectal cancer surgery: one with a temporary stoma (a bag on the belly) and one without. It aims to see if a stoma helps prevent complications after the bowel is reconnected.
MoscowAges 18–70 - NCT06856200Recruiting
Sirolimus plus palbociclib and fulvestrant for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a new combination of three drugs (sirolimus, palbociclib, and fulvestrant) for people with a certain type of advanced breast cancer that is hormone receptor-positive and HER2-negative. The goal is to see if adding sirolimus can help control the cancer when standard hormone therapy is no longer working.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT04827810RecruitingPhase 1
IV gamitrinib study for advanced cancers needing new options
This early-phase trial tests how safe IV gamitrinib is and how the body processes it in people with advanced cancers that can’t be controlled by standard treatment. It may also help researchers learn the best dose and whether it has signs of anti-cancer activity.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06184035RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a radioactive drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new radioactive drug, 177Lu-SN201, for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors and to find the best dose.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for advanced cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,225 recruiting advanced cancer studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a advanced cancer trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a advanced cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
