PTS injection for stage 4 lung cancer without gene mutations
This trial tests injecting a drug called PTS directly into lung tumors for people with stage 4 non-small cell lung cancer that doesn't have certain gene changes. It is for patients whose tumors have stayed stable after first-line treatment and are located in a small area of the outer lung.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06614790Recruiting
Niraparib maintenance for advanced ovarian cancer
This study looks at how well the drug niraparib works as a maintenance treatment for women with advanced ovarian cancer that responded well to initial platinum-based chemotherapy. It may help keep the cancer from coming back.

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.
