Burlington, VermontAges 18 years+ - NCT04643418RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for advanced solid tumors you can’t remove
This trial tests MPB-1734, a new study drug, in adults with advanced solid tumors that can’t be removed and for which standard treatment has stopped working. It aims to find out how safe it is and whether it can shrink or control the cancer.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT05124236Recruiting
Pre-surgery vs post-surgery focused radiation for brain metastases
This trial compares two ways of giving focused radiation for brain metastases: before surgery or after surgery. It aims to see which timing works better to control tumors while keeping you safe.
InnsbruckAges 18 years+ - NCT05768139RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new targeted drug for advanced solid tumors with PI3Kα mutation
This trial tests tersolisib, a new targeted medicine, in adults with advanced or hard-to-remove solid cancers. It focuses on tumors that have a specific genetic change (PI3Kα mutation) to see how well the treatment works and what side effects it causes.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05139277Recruiting
Using a imaging system during brain tumor surgery
This study tests the CONVIVO system to help surgeons see certain brain tumors during surgery. It may help make operations safer and more effective by improving how tumors are identified.
Lebanon, New HampshireAges 18 years+ - NCT05689619Recruiting
Silibinin after one brain metastasis surgery for lung or breast cancer
This trial studies silibinin, a natural substance, to help prevent brain metastasis from coming back after surgery. It is for people with lung (NSCLC) or breast cancer who have exactly one small brain metastasis that is fully removed and has a specific lab marker in the brain tissue.
GenovaAges 18–70 - NCT05775458Recruiting
Study of treatments for aggressive brain tumor cell damage
This study looks at glioblastoma (GBM), a very aggressive brain tumor, and how “brain cell overload” (glutamate excitotoxicity) may affect tumor growth. It focuses on adults who are planned for complete tumor removal, followed by standard radiation and chemotherapy.
Milan, MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT04343157RecruitingPhase 2
Image-guided radiation for brain tumors that protects thinking
This trial tests a special type of radiation therapy for brain tumors that aims to protect your memory and thinking skills. It may be an option if you have certain brain tumors or a small number of brain metastases.

Study of patritumab deruxtecan for NRG1 fusion-positive tumors
This trial tests a new drug called patritumab deruxtecan for people with advanced solid tumors that have an NRG1 fusion. The drug targets a protein called HER3 on cancer cells and may help shrink tumors or slow their growth.

IMA402 immune therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an immune system treatment (IMA402) that is meant to help the body recognize and fight advanced solid tumors. It may be an option if your cancer has come back or did not respond to standard treatments, and if your overall health and tumor measurements meet study requirements.

Tested immune therapy for certain HLA-A2 positive solid tumors
This trial studies an immune-based cancer treatment (IMA203/IMA203CD8) either alone or with nivolumab in people whose solid tumors have come back or will not respond to standard care. It may help by training the immune system to recognize and attack tumor cells that match the trial’s test requirements.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 169 recruiting brain tumor adult 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 brain tumor adult 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 brain tumor adult 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.
