Recruiting studies
- NCT07579780Recruiting
Nerve Block During Laparoscopic Colorectal Cancer Surgery
This trial tests a pain-relief technique called a nerve block during minimally invasive surgery to remove colorectal cancer. The block numbs nerves in the lower abdomen to potentially reduce pain and improve recovery after surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07587216Recruiting
Liver Cancer Patient Database Study
This study builds a database of information from liver cancer patients treated at Tongji Hospital. Researchers will collect your medical records and treatment information to better understand liver cancer diagnosis and care over time.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06843083Enrolling by invitation
Which advanced breast scan is better for you?
This study compares two advanced breast imaging methods—contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) and breast MRI—to see which is better at finding cancer, especially in women with dense breasts or unclear mammogram results. If you are being referred for one of these exams, you may be able to join and help doctors learn which test works best.
NaplesAges 18 years+ - NCT04339374Recruiting
Ultrasound and light imaging during rectal cancer surgery
This study tests a newer kind of imaging (ultrasound plus light-based measurements) to help doctors tell rectal cancer apart from other tissue during surgery. You may be able to take part if you’re having surgery for rectal cancer and the tumor is close enough to the anus.
St Louis, MissouriAges 19 years+ - NCT05346757Recruiting
Test stool DNA changes to screen or find colorectal cancer
This study checks whether a stool test that looks for tiny genetic signals can help detect colorectal cancer (or find it again after prior findings). You may be asked to provide a stool sample around the time you get a colonoscopy.
BarcelonaAges 18–80 - NCT07580105Recruiting
AI tool to help diagnose breast cancer from MRI scans
This study tests a new artificial intelligence software called Kenko Breast AI+ that analyzes breast MRI scans to help doctors better detect and monitor breast cancer. If you've had or are planning to have a breast MRI for cancer concerns, this trial might be right for you.
Elche, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT05710380Recruiting
MRI scans to guide biopsy for prostate cancer diagnosis
This study tests whether special MRI “risk maps” can help doctors better identify suspicious areas in the prostate during diagnosis. If you’re having an MRI followed by an MRI-guided biopsy, this may help improve how the biopsy targets areas of concern.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07553754Recruiting
Blood test to predict prostate cancer spread to bones
This study examines special particles in your blood called exosomes to see if they can predict whether prostate cancer might spread to your bones. Researchers will collect a blood sample before any cancer treatment to look for RNA signatures that might indicate bone metastasis risk.
Lanzhou, GansuAges 18 years+ - NCT07180381Recruiting
A closer look at prostate MRI to avoid unnecessary biopsies
This study uses repeat MRI scans to monitor men with an intermediate suspicion of prostate cancer, aiming to reduce unnecessary biopsies while still catching significant cancers early.
Emmen, DrentheAges 18 years+ - NCT06523868Recruiting
Multi-cancer early detection test for military veterans
This trial is testing a blood test that looks for early signs of multiple types of cancer. It is designed for current or former military members who are at least 45 years old and have used VA healthcare. If the test finds something, you would need to be willing to travel to Boston for follow-up.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 45 years+ - NCT06434376Enrolling by invitationEarly Phase 1
Personalized immune therapy for ctDNA-positive colorectal cancer
This trial tests a personalized immune therapy (like a custom vaccine) for people with colorectal cancer that has a positive ctDNA MRD test after surgery. It aims to use the body's own immune system to target any remaining cancer cells and prevent the cancer from coming back.
Wenzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–80 - NCT05952141Recruiting
Help close delays from cervical cancer diagnosis to treatment
This study aims to find practical ways to shorten the time between a cervical cancer diagnosis and starting treatment, using Botswana’s local testing system. If you are eligible, the study may help improve how quickly and smoothly patients get care after diagnosis.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07412379Recruiting
Predicting recovery after cancer surgery for older adults
This study looks at how older adults (65+) with digestive tract cancers respond to surgery aimed at a cure. Researchers want to see what factors affect recovery and quality of life after the operation.
BogotáAges 65 years+ - NCT07551466Recruiting
AI tool to detect early stomach cancer from endoscopy images
This study tests an artificial intelligence tool that analyzes images taken during stomach endoscopy to help diagnose early-stage stomach cancer or precancerous changes. The goal is to improve how doctors identify and treat these lesions early, when treatment is most effective.
SuzhouAges 18–80 - NCT07576049Enrolling by invitation
Colorectal Cancer Treatment Experience Study
This research study looks at how colorectal cancer patients are treated and their outcomes at a major medical center in Rome. It helps doctors understand what approaches work best for patients like you.
RomaAges Any age - NCT07510321Recruiting
A study of FL-261 imaging for cancer diagnosis
This trial tests a new imaging agent called FL-261 to help doctors see and stage cancers more clearly. If you have a known or suspected cancer like lung, colon, or head and neck cancer, this study may improve how your cancer is evaluated.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT04733430Recruiting
Study lung cancer care in real life
This study follows adults with confirmed lung cancer as they are diagnosed and treated in routine clinical practice. It aims to better understand how lung cancer is diagnosed and managed day-to-day, which may help improve future care.
ViennaAges 18–125 - NCT07272772RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
FAPI-PET scan for colon cancer diagnosis
This trial tests a new type of PET scan (FAPI-PET) to see if it can better find colon cancer that has spread to lymph nodes or other parts of the body. It may help doctors plan the right treatment for you.
TurkuAges 18–85 - NCT07325864Recruiting
Studying lung cancer and its spread to find new treatments
This trial collects tissue samples from your lung tumor and any tumors that have spread to other parts of your body. They will study the genetic makeup of these samples to better understand lung cancer and improve future treatments.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06876610Recruiting
Blood test for early breast cancer detection
This trial tests a blood test that looks for chemical changes in DNA to help diagnose breast cancer. It may offer a simpler way to detect cancer without needing a tissue sample.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 30–75 - NCT06411678RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing a new scan for breast cancer before treatment
This trial uses a special PET/CT scan to find breast cancer cells that have a certain marker (CD73). It may help doctors see the cancer more clearly before you start other treatments.
Dongcheng, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06482645Recruiting
Testing a new biopsy method for prostate cancer diagnosis
This study is testing a new approach to prostate biopsy that takes samples from around a suspicious area seen on MRI. It aims to see if this method can better detect prostate cancer compared to standard biopsy.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 45–85 - NCT06612047Recruiting
Comparing high-field and ultra-high-field MRI for prostate cancer diagnosis
This study compares two types of MRI scans – one at 3.0 Tesla and one at 5.0 Tesla – to see which is better at finding prostate cancer. If you are scheduled for a prostate biopsy, you may be asked to get both scans to help improve detection.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cancer diagnosis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 254 recruiting cancer diagnosis 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 diagnosis 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 diagnosis 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.
