Study of new drug combo for advanced lung cancer
This study tests a new combination of cancer drugs (PF-08634404 with other anticancer agents) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who have not yet received any treatment for their advanced disease. It aims to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Fayetteville, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT07040657Recruiting
Comparing injection techniques for cervical lymph node mapping in endometrial cancer
This trial tests two different injection methods in the cervix to help map lymph nodes for endometrial cancer. The goal is to find which technique works better for staging, using a dye that helps surgeons see the lymph nodes during surgery.
AnkaraAges 18–75 - NCT06697938Recruiting
Chemo plus radiation vs. chemo alone for locally advanced breast cancer
This trial compares two treatments for locally advanced breast cancer: chemotherapy before surgery plus radiation, versus chemotherapy before surgery alone. The goal is to see which approach works better for this specific type of cancer.

Drug combo before & after surgery for HER2+ stomach cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and chemotherapy) before and after surgery for locally advanced HER2-positive stomach cancer. It aims to see if this treatment can improve outcomes for patients whose cancer has not yet spread.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06826079RecruitingPhase 2
Sorbitol plus chemo and immunotherapy for advanced gastric cancer
This trial tests adding sorbitol to standard chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug (tirellizumab) for people with locally advanced stomach cancer. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and helps shrink tumors before surgery.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–70 - NCT05834764RecruitingPhase 2
Pyrotinib for high-risk HER2-positive early breast cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests pyrotinib, a HER2-targeted cancer medicine, in people with high-risk, HER2-positive breast cancer after surgery. It aims to lower the chance the cancer comes back, especially when standard treatment did not fully clear the tumor.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT05378919RecruitingPhase 2
Testing new pre-surgery treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer
This Phase 2 trial compares a pre-surgery (neoadjuvant) treatment plan versus the standard plan for people with stage II–III rectal cancer. The goal is to see which approach works better and is safe before surgery.
KaunasAges 18 years+ - NCT06313086RecruitingPhase 3
New drug vs. T-DM1 for HER2-positive advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a new antibody-drug conjugate (DP303c) against an existing one, T-DM1, in people with HER2-positive advanced breast cancer who have already been treated with trastuzumab and a taxane. The goal is to see if the new drug works better or has fewer side effects.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06329908RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Dendritic cell vaccine plus immunotherapy for resistant lung cancer
This trial tests a new treatment combining a dendritic cell vaccine (a type of immune therapy that trains your body to fight cancer) with additional immunotherapy drugs. It is for people with advanced lung cancer that has stopped responding to standard immunotherapy.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–85 - NCT06732856RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Zolbetuximab plus chemo before stomach cancer surgery
This trial tests a new drug called zolbetuximab combined with chemotherapy (docetaxel, oxaliplatin, S-1) before surgery for people with locally advanced stomach cancer that has a specific protein (CLDN18.2). The goal is to see if this combination shrinks tumors enough to improve surgery outcomes.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06895447RecruitingPhase 2
Robot-assisted stomach cancer surgery after chemo or radiation
This trial tests whether using a robotic arm to remove stomach cancer is safe and effective for patients who have already received chemotherapy or radiation. If you have stage III stomach cancer and are healthy enough for surgery, this approach may offer a more precise operation.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT03836196Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cancer (advanced stage)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,033 recruiting cancer (advanced stage) 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 cancer (advanced stage) 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 cancer (advanced stage) 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.
