BNCT for High-Grade Malignant Brain Tumors
This trial tests a special type of radiation therapy called boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) for people with high-grade malignant brain tumors. It aims to see if BNCT is safe and effective for tumors that have not been treated or have come back after standard treatments.
HsinchuAges 18 years+ - NCT06970639RecruitingPhase 3
Study comparing new targeted drug plus chemo vs osimertinib for lung cancer with brain tumors
This trial tests a new targeted therapy called furmonertinib combined with chemotherapy against the current standard osimertinib for people with a specific type of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread to the brain. It aims to find a better treatment option for patients whose cancer cells have a common EGFR mutation.
Guangdong, GuangzhouAges 18 years+ - NCT07059286Enrolling by invitation
Pregnancy, Baby Brain Scans, and Child Development Study
This study looks at how a mother's health and experiences during pregnancy may affect her baby's brain growth and early development. You and your baby would have special MRI brain scans, fill out some questionnaires, and then your child's development would be followed until they are 6 years old.
Milan, MIAges 18 years+ - NCT06943742Recruiting
Brain scan without helium for children with brain tumors
This study uses a special type of brain scan (magnetoencephalography, or MEG) that doesn't need helium gas to see brain activity in children with brain tumors. The goal is to see if this scan can help doctors plan surgery or treatment better.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 3–18 - NCT07158710RecruitingPhase 1
Study of HSK42360 for brain tumors with BRAF V600 mutation in children
This trial tests a new drug, HSK42360, for children with recurrent brain tumors that have a specific gene change called BRAF V600. The goal is to see if the drug can help when standard treatments have stopped working.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05651802Recruiting
Brain MRI follow-up with or without preventive scans in SCLC
This study tests whether adding a preventive brain procedure (PCI) to standard follow-up brain MRIs helps people with limited-stage small-cell lung cancer stay disease-free longer. It compares “MRI only” versus “MRI plus PCI” after the cancer has fully responded to initial treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for brain?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,066 recruiting brain 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 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 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.
