Testing a targeted antibody for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 trial tests a new antibody drug (GNC-039) that targets a specific feature found on some cancer cells. It is for adults with solid tumors that have come back or stopped responding to standard treatment, aiming to see safety and early signs of effectiveness.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05786924RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted cancer drug study for RAS/RAF mutation-positive tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests S241656 (a targeted cancer medicine) in people whose cancers have certain “RAS/RAF” gene changes. It may help shrink tumors or control cancer growth, and also finds the safest dose and best way to use the drug.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05432804RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Selinexor added to temozolomide for recurring brain glioblastoma
This trial studies whether adding selinexor to the standard chemotherapy temozolomide (with radiation) can better treat glioblastoma that has come back after prior treatment. If you meet specific tumor, health, and lab requirements, the goal is to slow tumor growth or improve symptoms.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04196257RecruitingPhase 1
Early-dose trial of BP1001-A for advanced or recurrent solid tumors
This Phase 1 trial studies BP1001-A in people with advanced or recurring solid cancers to find a safe dose and learn how the treatment works. You may be asked for tumor biopsies before and possibly after treatment to see how the cancer responds.
Silver Spring, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05430373RecruitingPhase 1
Injection study for advanced solid tumors using tumor-fighting cells
This Phase 1 trial tests GT101, an injection made from your own tumor-fighting immune cells, for advanced solid cancers that can’t be removed with surgery. It’s mainly aimed at checking safety and early signs of whether the treatment may work.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07053033RecruitingPhase 2
Laser surgery or surgery plus second radiation for recurrent brain tumors
This trial is testing whether a second, precise dose of radiation to the brain, after a tumor has been removed or treated with a laser, can help people with recurrent brain metastases. It's for patients whose brain tumors have come back after prior radiation therapy.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05057702Recruiting
Personalized surgery-focused treatment plan for relapsed brain cancer
This study tests a personalized treatment plan for children and young adults whose medulloblastoma or ependymoma has come back. It aims to guide doctors using new tissue from surgery or biopsy after earlier treatments are fully finished.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 1–39 - NCT05911230Recruiting
MRI test to tell tumor return from temporary treatment effects
This study uses an advanced MRI scan to help doctors tell the difference between true tumor regrowth and “pseudoprogression,” which is a temporary treatment-related change that can look like progression. If it works, it may guide the safest next steps, including whether surgery is helpful.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT06090903Recruiting
MRI Study to Understand Glioblastoma Biology Before Surgery
This study uses MRI scans to learn more about the biology of glioblastoma before and after surgery. It may help doctors understand how the tumor behaves and improve future treatments.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07511933Recruiting
New PET scan to detect tumor regrowth vs. scar tissue in brain
This study tests a new type of PET scan (a special imaging test) that uses a radioactive tracer to help doctors tell the difference between scar tissue from past radiation and cancer that has come back in the brain. This could help avoid unnecessary surgery or additional treatment.
AmsterdamAges Any age - NCT07002203RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized cancer vaccine trial for solid tumors
This trial tests a custom-made vaccine designed to train your immune system to fight your specific cancer. It may be an option if you have advanced cancer that stopped responding to treatment or early-stage cancer with a high risk of coming back.
BangkokAges 20 years+ - NCT06810544RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of TNG456 for tumors with MTAP loss
This trial tests a new drug called TNG456, alone or with another drug (abemaciclib), for people whose tumors have lost the MTAP gene. It aims to see if the combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04899908RecruitingPhase 2
Brain radiation with or without gadolinium nanoparticles for brain metastases
This trial tests whether adding tiny gadolinium-containing nanoparticles to standard brain radiation can better control brain metastases from certain cancers. It is for people with tumors that have grown after immunotherapy, are from certain cancers (like melanoma, GI, or HER2+ breast), are cystic, are large, or have come back after prior radiation.

Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 15–39 - NCT07278440Recruiting
Exercise program for brain tumor patients and their partners
This study tests if a home exercise program can improve mental and physical health for people with brain tumors and their live-in partners. Both of you will be guided through exercise sessions together over video.
Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT05658731Recruiting
Radiation planning study to protect thinking in children
This study compares how radiation is planned to see whether it better protects thinking and memory in children and young adults. It may help future patients by learning which planning approach leads to better cognitive (thinking) outcomes.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 1–26 - NCT06283927Recruiting
Surgery vs. medical care for recurrent glioblastoma

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 122 recruiting brain tumor, recurrent 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, recurrent 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, recurrent 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.
