Recruiting studies
- NCT05201430RecruitingPhase 3
FOLFOXIRI vs CapeOX before surgery for locally advanced rectal cancer
This trial compares two chemotherapy plans given before rectal cancer surgery to see which helps more people and works better for disease control. If you have locally advanced rectal cancer and have not had treatment yet, this study may be an option.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05136326RecruitingPhase 2
Pre-surgery chemo-radiation for rectal cancer without MGMT
This trial studies whether adding two chemotherapy medicines (capecitabine and temozolomide) to standard pre-surgery chemo-radiation can work better for people with locally advanced rectal cancer that has a specific tumor marker pattern (MGMT “silenced”) and is mismatch-repair proficient (MSS). It aims to shrink the tumor before surgery and improve cancer control.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT05431530Recruiting
Quality of life after rectal surgery for advanced ovarian cancer
This trial studies how patients’ day-to-day quality of life changes after a specific type of rectal/low anterior resection during treatment for advanced ovarian cancer. It may help the medical team understand what symptoms and recovery needs to expect after surgery.
SeoulAges 18 years+ - NCT05984485RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery vs chemo before surgery for low-risk rectal cancer
This trial compares two approaches for low-risk locally advanced rectal cancer: going straight to surgery (TME) versus receiving chemotherapy before surgery. The goal is to see if upfront surgery works just as well, sparing patients from chemotherapy side effects.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05450029RecruitingPhase 2
Adding immunotherapy to chemo-radiation for rectal cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding sintilimab (an immunotherapy drug) to standard chemo-radiation before surgery can improve outcomes for people with locally advanced rectal cancer. It’s aimed at tumors with certain immune “signature” scores and specific cancer stage features.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05140746Recruiting

Test a PARP and CDK4/6 medicine plus hormone therapy
This Phase 2 study tests whether combining a PARP inhibitor with a CDK4/6 inhibitor and hormone (endocrine) therapy can help people with advanced HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer. It’s for certain patients who have not yet had chemotherapy or targeted therapy for metastatic disease.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06251388RecruitingPhase 2
Chemoradiation plus Cadonilimab for advanced cervical cancer

Testing adebrelimab, dalpiciclib, and hormone therapy for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of a new immunotherapy drug (adebrelimab) with a targeted pill (dalpiciclib) and standard hormone therapy for women with advanced hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative breast cancer. It may help patients who have not yet had certain prior treatments, aiming to slow the cancer's growth.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06462378RecruitingPhase 2
Proton therapy for advanced cervical cancer
This trial tests whether a precise type of radiation called proton therapy can work well for cervical cancer that has spread to lymph nodes. It aims to see if this treatment can shrink tumors with fewer side effects.
CopenhagenAges 18–99 - NCT07822646RecruitingPhase 3
Study of a new treatment for advanced ovarian cancer
This study tests a new combination treatment for people with advanced ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has progressed after at least two prior treatments. The aim is to see if this treatment can help shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05837260Recruiting
Tracking tumor DNA changes in advanced thyroid cancers
This study looks at a small blood test (called ctDNA) and tumor tissue to understand how advanced thyroid cancers change over time. It may help doctors better monitor cancer growth and guide treatment choices.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06555471RecruitingPhase 2
Sintilimab plus chemo-radiation for older adults with advanced stomach cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug sintilimab to standard chemoradiotherapy can help people aged 75 or older with locally advanced stomach cancer. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 75 years+ - NCT07733505RecruitingPhase 1
Heated chemotherapy for older women with advanced ovarian cancer
This trial tests a new way to give heated chemotherapy directly into the abdomen during surgery for women aged 70 and older with advanced ovarian cancer. It aims to find a gentler treatment option that may still be effective for those who are more frail.
OdenseAges 70 years+ - NCT07722494RecruitingPhase 3
Investigational drug plus bevacizumab for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug combined with a standard treatment for advanced colorectal cancer that has not responded to earlier therapies. It aims to see if the combination can help slow the cancer's growth.
Wuhan, WuhanAges 18 years+ - NCT07711184RecruitingPhase 1
Testing an oral drug for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests a new oral tablet (HRS-7525) for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective, and may offer a new treatment option for those who have not responded to standard therapies.

Canagliflozin for advanced solid tumors in patients with or without diabetes
This trial tests canagliflozin, a diabetes drug, combined with immunotherapy for people with advanced solid tumors. It may help if you have type 2 diabetes or are at risk, but you don't need diabetes to join.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–80 - NCT06207656RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted therapy for BRAF V600E mutated colorectal cancer
This trial tests if combining three targeted drugs (cetuximab, encorafenib, and binimetinib) before surgery can shrink or control cancer in people with a specific BRAF V600E mutation and a stable (MSS) tumor. It focuses on colorectal cancer that is either already able to be removed or could become removable with treatment.

Double lung transplant registry for certain lung-limited cancers
This study follows people who are getting a double lung transplant and have specific lung-only (or lung-limited) cancer or other serious lung conditions. It’s an observational registry, meaning it collects real-world information to learn which patients may benefit from transplant and how they do afterward.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for advanced malignant cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,520 recruiting advanced malignant 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 malignant 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 malignant 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.
