Study drug that blocks BET and CBP/p300 in advanced cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests an investigational medicine that targets BET and CBP/p300 to try to slow or control advanced, hard-to-treat cancers. You may be eligible if you have certain prostate cancer or NUT midline carcinoma, or specific blood cancers like CMML or myelofibrosis (MF), and your body functions are strong enough for chemotherapy-style treatment.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05498792RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Trial testing CBL0137 with two immunotherapy drugs for melanoma
This early trial tests CBL0137 along with ipilimumab and nivolumab (two immune-based cancer medicines) in people with stage III or possibly stage IV melanoma that can be biopsied. It may help shrink melanoma and improve immune control, while also learning how safe and effective this combination is.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06010329RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a new pill for advanced lung cancer with rare EGFR mutations
This trial tests an experimental pill called Sutetinib for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a rare EGFR gene change. It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors and improve survival.
Glendale, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06055816RecruitingPhase 2
Gemcitabine plus two targeted drugs for older adults with nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—chemotherapy (gemcitabine), a blood-vessel blocker (Endostar), and an immunotherapy (Envafolimab)—for older adults with advanced nasopharyngeal cancer that hasn't been treated yet. The goal is to see if this mix works better than standard care for patients aged 65 and up.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 65 years+ - NCT06355609RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted therapy for advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted pills (sunvozertinib and anlotinib) as a first treatment for people with advanced lung cancer that has a specific EGFR mutation. It aims to see if this combination works better than current standard treatments.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT06574347RecruitingPhase 2
Two targeted drugs for EGFR-mutated, MET-high lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (vebreltinib and PLB1004) as the first treatment for people with a specific type of advanced lung cancer that has both an EGFR mutation and high MET protein. It may offer a new option for those who haven't had treatment yet.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06648057Recruiting
Predictors of response in biliary tract cancer
This trial is looking at how certain markers in your blood or tissue (biomarkers) might predict how well the combination of Lenvatinib and Pembrolizumab works against advanced biliary tract cancer. If you're already scheduled to receive these two drugs, researchers want to learn more from your samples to help future patients.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 20 years+ - NCT06749886RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab plus chemo for advanced lung cancer after prior immunotherapy
This trial tests a drug called Tislelizumab (an immunotherapy) combined with chemotherapy for people with advanced NSCLC who have already been helped by a different immunotherapy. It's a second-line option for those who did well on their first immunotherapy but now need another treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for advanced cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,221 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.
