Ivonescimab with chemotherapy for advanced stomach or esophagus cancer
This trial tests a new drug called ivonescimab combined with chemotherapy (FOLFOX) for advanced stomach, gastroesophageal junction, or esophageal cancer that is not HER2 positive. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07128680RecruitingPhase 1
Immunotherapy with or without a gut bacteria pill for kidney cancer
This trial tests whether adding a live bacteria pill (EXL01) to standard immunotherapy drugs (nivolumab and ipilimumab) helps treat advanced or metastatic kidney cancer that has clear cells. You may join if you have not had prior immunotherapy and your cancer has not been treated before (except possibly after surgery).

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.
