You'd receive one cycle of standard chemotherapy first, then be randomly assigned to either continue with the new drug plus chemotherapy or standard chemotherapy alone.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06712420RecruitingPhase 3
Chemotherapy before surgery for advanced gallbladder cancer
This trial tests whether giving chemotherapy before surgery helps people with locally advanced gallbladder cancer that can still be removed. It may improve outcomes by shrinking the tumor beforehand.

Study of a targeted pill for PIK3CA-mutated advanced cancers
This trial tests a new pill (CGT6297) that targets cancer cells with a specific PIK3CA gene change. It may be an option for people with certain advanced solid tumors, including endometrial or breast cancer, after standard treatments have stopped working.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06784778Recruiting
Testing a blood test to predict immunotherapy response
This study is testing a new blood test called IOpener®-Melanoma to see if it can predict which patients with advanced melanoma will respond well to immunotherapy. The goal is to better match treatments to people who will benefit most.
Tübingen, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT05955105RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
ILB-2109 plus toripalimab for advanced solid cancers
This Phase 1/2 study tests a combination medicine (ILB-2109) plus an immune therapy (toripalimab) in people with advanced solid tumors when standard treatments haven’t worked or aren’t available. It aims to find out if the treatment can shrink tumors and is safe enough to keep studying.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–80 - NCT04981509RecruitingPhase 2
Check if 3 medicines help advanced kidney cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether combining bevacizumab, erlotinib, and atezolizumab can shrink or control advanced kidney cancer. It’s aimed at people with certain kidney-cancer subtypes (including HLRCC-related cases or papillary kidney cancer) and who have not had many prior targeted or immune treatments.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT04205968RecruitingPhase 2
Testing ramucirumab with chemo for advanced small bowel cancer
This trial studies whether adding ramucirumab to chemotherapy (either paclitaxel or FOLFIRI) works better for advanced small bowel adenocarcinoma that has already been treated with certain prior medicines. It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth in people whose cancer has progressed.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT07757165RecruitingPhase 2
Surgery after drug treatment for advanced stomach cancer
This trial is for people with advanced stomach cancer that has shrunk after initial chemotherapy or targeted therapy. It compares whether adding surgery to continued medical treatment is better than staying on medical treatment alone, with the goal of improving outcomes.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT07752953Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for advanced cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,224 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.
