NBTXR3 plus radiation with anti-PD-1 for advanced lung or liver cancers
This study tests whether adding NBTXR3 (given into a tumor) and targeted radiation to anti–PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy can improve cancer control in advanced cancers that have spread to the lung and/or liver. Participants may be assigned to different radiation approaches to try to trigger tumor shrinkage in both treated and nearby or distant tumor areas.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05333458RecruitingPhase 2
Atezolizumab plus selinexor for advanced alveolar soft tissue sarcoma
This Phase 2 trial tests whether combining atezolizumab with selinexor can slow or shrink advanced alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) in people age 12 and older. It may help by improving the immune system’s ability to fight the cancer and stopping cancer cell growth signals.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT03907475RecruitingPhase 2

T cell activator STAR0602 for advanced solid tumors
This study tests an experimental drug called STAR0602 that aims to boost your immune system's T cells to fight advanced solid tumors. It's for patients whose cancer has not responded to standard treatments or for whom such treatments are not suitable.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05651594RecruitingPhase 2
Propranolol with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy for esophageal cancer
This trial tests whether adding propranolol (a common blood-pressure/heart medicine) can improve outcomes when used with pembrolizumab plus standard chemotherapy. It is for people with advanced esophageal or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma that cannot be removed with surgery.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06971848Recruiting
Skin testing for biologic drug allergies
This trial checks if people can safely receive certain biologic drugs without allergic reactions, using skin tests to see how the body reacts. It may help find out if you are allergic to a biologic medicine you have taken before.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT07147426RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab plus chemo before surgery for head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether giving the immunotherapy drug tislelizumab with chemotherapy before surgery can help people with advanced head and neck cancer. The goal is to shrink the tumor enough to remove it completely during surgery.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04515810Recruiting
Mobile app coaching for planning care after serious cancer
This study tests a mobile health app (PACT) to help people with advanced cancer talk and plan for future care. It may help you and a loved one stay engaged in advance care planning (planning what care you want and who should speak for you).
Manhasset, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04389632RecruitingPhase 1
Sigvotatug vedotin for advanced solid tumors that spread
This early-stage study tests a drug called sigvotatug vedotin in people with advanced solid cancers that cannot be removed or have spread. It aims to see how well the treatment works and what side effects it causes.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for advanced cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,215 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.
