NaplesAges 18 years+ - NCT06777420Recruiting
Question list for breast cancer patients before chemo
This study tests whether a list of helpful questions can improve communication and care for breast cancer patients who will receive chemotherapy before surgery. It aims to support patients in talking with their doctors about what matters most to them.
Uppsala, Region UppsalaAges 18 years+ - NCT07133269Recruiting
Care coach support for advanced cancer patients having surgery
This study tests a new care model where a care coach helps coordinate surgery, cancer treatment, and palliative support for people with advanced cancer. It aims to make recovery easier and improve quality of life.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - 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).
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07070466RecruitingPhase 2
Ivonescimab with chemotherapy for advanced stomach or esophageal cancer
This study tests a new drug called ivonescimab combined with standard chemotherapy (FOLFOX) for people with advanced adenocarcinoma of the esophagus, stomach, or gastroesophageal junction. The drug is designed to help the immune system fight cancer. The study is for people who have not had prior treatment for stage IV disease and whose cancer is HER2 negative.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07042919RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Zanzalintinib for advanced liver cancer after prior treatment
This trial tests a new drug called zanzalintinib for people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) that can't be treated with surgery. You may join if your cancer has gotten worse after at least one prior treatment, or you couldn't tolerate that treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07030569Recruiting
Predicting treatment response in metastatic breast cancer
This trial studies how well CT and PET scans can predict if a certain type of breast cancer will respond to a targeted treatment. It focuses on women who had a biopsy of the liver, lung, or chest lining after the cancer spread.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cancer (advanced stage)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,008 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.
