Olanzapine vs mirtazapine for weight loss in advanced cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether the medicines olanzapine or mirtazapine can help people with advanced cancer who are losing weight without trying. It looks at improving unintentional weight loss when standard cancer care is also ongoing.
Englewood, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05196087Recruiting
AI system to monitor cancer treatment progress
This trial tests a non-invasive, AI-based monitoring program for people with solid tumors. It aims to help track how you’re doing during or after curative-intent treatment, using information collected without extra procedures.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05184803RecruitingPhase 2
Pre-surgery chemo for advanced stomach cancer with lymph spread
This Phase 2 study tests a combination chemotherapy regimen given before surgery for stomach cancer that cannot be fully removed (unresectable), including spread to lymph nodes. The goal is to shrink the cancer and improve control with a well-known set of medicines given in a specific order.
Seoul, SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05101070RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of an anti-cancer drug alone or with immunotherapy
This Phase 1/2 study tests a new cancer drug (S-531011) in people with advanced or metastatic solid tumors, either by itself or combined with an immunotherapy drug. It may help shrink tumors and learn how the treatment works, but it also requires extra procedures like repeat tumor biopsies and frequent monitoring.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05122806Recruiting
Study of cancer biology in ALK-positive advanced lung cancer
This study looks at biological changes in advanced lung cancer that has an ALK rearrangement, using regular blood samples (and sometimes tumor tissue if available). It may help researchers better understand how this cancer behaves and how it responds to first-line ALK-targeted treatment.
Saint-Denis, La RéunionAges 18 years+ - NCT04975152RecruitingPhase 1
Cemiplimab before surgery for Merkel cell and skin cancers
This early-phase study tests cemiplimab (an immune therapy that helps your immune system attack cancer) given before surgery. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes for people with Merkel cell cancer or certain locally advanced skin squamous cell cancers (CSCC).
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04859465RecruitingPhase 2
Paclitaxel plus doxorubicin for advanced, unresectable angiosarcoma
This Phase 2 trial tests a chemotherapy combination (paclitaxel and liposomal doxorubicin) for people with advanced angiosarcoma that cannot be removed by surgery. It is meant for cases where standard treatment either did not work or was too hard to tolerate, and it aims to shrink tumors and control the disease.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT04815525Recruiting
Long-term bowel cancer risk after colonoscopy in Hong Kong
This study follows people in Hong Kong over time to learn how the future risk of advanced colon growth changes after they have a colonoscopy. It may help doctors better predict who needs closer follow-up in the years after a colonoscopy.
Shatin, New TerritoriesAges Any age - NCT04771806Recruiting
MRI-guided adaptive radiation for high-grade brain tumors
This study uses repeated MRI scans with a contrast dye to help doctors tailor (adapt) your radiation treatment over time for a high-grade glioma. It may help improve how accurately radiation targets the tumor as it changes.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04815694Recruiting
MRI-guided radiotherapy for rectal cancer
This trial tests whether using MRI scans to guide radiotherapy can improve treatment for people with a certain type of rectal cancer. It focuses on patients whose tumors have not spread to other parts of the body and who have specific tumor features seen on MRI.
Roma, RomaAges 18 years+ - NCT04747054RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation plus pembrolizumab for newly diagnosed metastatic head and neck cancer
This trial studies whether adding pembrolizumab (an immune system medicine) to radiation can improve outcomes in people newly diagnosed with metastatic head and neck squamous cell cancer. It may help the immune system better recognize and fight the cancer alongside radiation.
AvignonAges 18 years+ - NCT04683250RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
RET-targeting drug study for advanced cancers with RET changes
This trial tests an “RET-inhibitor” medicine (TAS0953/HM06) for advanced solid tumors that have RET gene changes. It may help shrink tumors by blocking cancer growth signals from the RET gene.

PET imaging test for solid tumors using FAP-2286
This Phase 1 study tests a special imaging scan (using FAP-2286) to see solid tumors in people who have already been diagnosed. It may help doctors better detect where cancer is in the body and how to plan treatment.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04622423Recruiting
Advanced therapies for colon or pancreas liver metastases
This study tests advanced treatments for cancer that has spread to the liver, either from colon cancer or pancreatic cancer. It may help by targeting liver tumors using treatment plans and, for some participants, liver tissue samples.

- Are there clinical trials for advanced or metastatic breast cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 6,093 recruiting advanced or metastatic breast 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 or metastatic breast 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 or metastatic breast 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.
