Recruiting studies
- NCT06502691RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New imaging test to measure PARP in metastatic breast cancer
This trial tests a new imaging scan called [18F]FTT PET that may show how much of a protein called PARP is in your tumors. This could help doctors decide if a PARP inhibitor (a type of targeted therapy) is right for you. You may be able to join if you have metastatic breast cancer and are already planning to take a PARP inhibitor.

Study of three drugs for a type of advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (defactinib and avutometinib) plus an immunotherapy (nivolumab) for people with advanced lung adenocarcinoma that has a specific gene mutation (LKB1) and has stopped responding to prior immunotherapy and chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this new combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.

Brussels, Brussels CapitalAges 18–70 - NCT06482645Recruiting
Testing a new biopsy method for prostate cancer diagnosis
This study is testing a new approach to prostate biopsy that takes samples from around a suspicious area seen on MRI. It aims to see if this method can better detect prostate cancer compared to standard biopsy.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 45–85 - NCT06481813Recruiting
Lung Cancer Biobank Study for Newly Diagnosed Patients
This trial collects blood and tissue samples from people newly diagnosed with lung cancer (NSCLC or CPC) to study the disease over time. It helps researchers understand how different treatments affect the cancer and the body.

Testing teclistamab with iberdomide for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs (teclistamab and iberdomide) for people with multiple myeloma that has come back or stopped responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see how well this combination works and whether it can help control the disease.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06474091Enrolling by invitation
Blood monitoring for bile duct cancer treatment and outlook
This trial uses a simple blood test to track how well bile duct cancer responds to treatment and to predict outcomes. It may help doctors make better decisions about surgery and other therapies.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06470997Recruiting
Biomarkers for hepatitis from immunotherapy
This study looks for certain markers in the blood that can help diagnose liver inflammation caused by immunotherapy. It aims to better understand this side effect and how to treat it.
Montpellier, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06472947Recruiting
New imaging tests to check kidney transplant health
This study is testing two new types of scans that use sound and light waves to check the health of your transplanted kidney without needing a needle biopsy. If you are already scheduled for a biopsy, the researchers want to see if these scans can give the same information in a less invasive way.
Erlangen, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT06459791Recruiting
Personalized treatment for advanced breast cancer using lab-grown tumor models
This trial tests a personalized approach to cancer treatment. Doctors will grow a ‘mini-tumor’ from a biopsy of your cancer in the lab to help find the best therapy for you. It is for people with advanced breast cancer that has not responded well to standard treatments.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06470971RecruitingPhase 2
Siltuximab to prevent severe side effects during immunotherapy rechallenge
This trial tests if siltuximab can prevent severe immune-related side effects when patients restart immunotherapy (anti-PD-1/PD-L1) after previous severe side effects. It aims to make rechallenge safer for people with advanced cancer.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06466122RecruitingPhase 2
Pirtobrutinib plus Venetoclax for resistant CLL or SLL
This trial tests two oral targeted drugs—pirtobrutinib and venetoclax—for people with CLL or SLL whose disease has continued to grow despite taking a BTK inhibitor (such as ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, or zanubrutinib). The goal is to see if this combination can control the cancer when a BTK inhibitor alone is no longer working.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06444646Recruiting
Studying fat cell particles in obesity
This study looks at tiny particles released from fat tissue in people with and without obesity. It aims to understand differences that might help explain obesity-related health problems.
Genk, LimburgAges 18–65 - NCT06450691Recruiting
ALS Study: Using Skin Cells to Understand the Disease
This study collects a small skin sample (biopsy) from people with ALS, those who carry an ALS gene mutation but have no symptoms, and healthy volunteers. The sample is used to grow cells in the lab to better understand how ALS develops.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06444269RecruitingPhase 2
Precision radiation before surgery for early hormone-positive breast cancer
This trial tests a focused radiation treatment before surgery for early-stage breast cancer that is hormone receptor positive and HER2 negative. The goal is to give precise radiation only to the tumor, with the hope of reducing side effects and improving outcomes.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03958240Recruiting
Study how cancers trigger the immune system
This study looks at what makes some cancers more “noticeable” to the immune system. It may help researchers design better future immunotherapy by collecting information (often including blood samples) from people with different cancers.
ToulouseAges 18 years+ - NCT05386043Recruiting
Study brain tumor testing with MRI and extra tissue samples
This study looks at how brain tumors look on MRI and what biopsy tissue shows, using samples taken during planned surgery. It may help improve understanding of tumor biology and future treatment planning.

Combination immunotherapy for advanced bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug, CA-4948, combined with pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for people with advanced bladder cancer that grew after prior immunotherapy. The goal is to see if this combination can help when standard treatments stop working.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06423326RecruitingPhase 2

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for biopsy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 937 recruiting biopsy 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 biopsy 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 biopsy 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.
