BeijingAges 18–70 - NCT05968898Recruiting
Computer helps analyze lung nodules on CT scans
This study tests a computer tool that uses patterns from your chest CT scan to help assess an unclear lung nodule. It may help doctors decide which nodules need closer attention.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 35–89 - NCT06776588Recruiting
Microwave ablation with biopsy for ground-glass lung cancer
This trial tests a treatment that uses heat (microwave ablation) to destroy ground-glass lung nodules while also taking a tissue sample (biopsy) to confirm the diagnosis. It's for people whose lung nodules are 3 cm or smaller and who cannot or choose not to have surgery.
Harbin, HeilongjiangAges 18–75 - NCT07681245Recruiting
Laser imaging plus AI for faster lung surgery diagnosis
This study tests a new laser imaging tool that works with artificial intelligence to give fast, accurate results during lung surgery. If you are already scheduled to have lung surgery for a suspicious spot, the laser scan will be done on your tissue and compared to the standard frozen section and final lab results.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–90 - NCT05870969Recruiting
Digital monitoring to catch liver cancer risk early
This study tests a digital (computer/phone-based) system to help track people with higher risk of liver cancer so cancers can be found earlier. It may help by guiding regular check-ins and making early diagnosis more efficient.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04797039Recruiting
MRI-guided freezing treatment for localized prostate cancer
This trial studies a treatment where doctors use MRI pictures to guide freezing of a prostate tumor. It may help men with smaller, well-placed prostate cancers who cannot or do not want surgery or radiation right now.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 30–100 - NCT06421142Recruiting
FAPI and FDG scans for bladder cancer
This trial is testing if two types of PET/MRI scans (one using FAPI tracer, another using FDG tracer) are better at finding and evaluating muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It may help doctors decide the best treatment for you.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–80 - NCT07056790RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
PET scan using 68Ga-PSMA-CYC for prostate cancer
This trial is testing a new type of PET scan that uses a special tracer called 68Ga-PSMA-CYC to take detailed pictures of prostate cancer. It may help doctors better see where the cancer is and how far it has spread.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–80 - NCT07144085RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new PET scan tracer for cancer diagnosis
This trial tests a new type of PET/CT scan that uses a special tracer (called ⁶⁸Ga-FXX489) to help find and diagnose cancers. It is for people who are strongly suspected to have cancer and want to see if this new imaging method can help their doctors learn more about their disease.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–80 - NCT04406831Recruiting
Testing microRNA for pancreatic cancer diagnosis and treatment response
This study looks at tiny molecules in your body (microRNA) to help doctors better diagnose pancreatic cancer, predict how it may progress, and understand how it responds to treatment. It may help guide more personalized care in the future.
Norwalk, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT02288676Recruiting
Genetic testing to help diagnose ovarian or uterine cancer earlier
This study tests genetic (DNA) information to help doctors identify ovarian or uterine (endometrial) cancer sooner. You may be asked to do this around the time of planned surgery, when tissue is removed and can be checked for genetic clues.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06807307Recruiting
Using genetic tests to predict immunotherapy response in lung cancer
This study looks at genetic material from tumor samples to find patterns that can predict whether immunotherapy will work for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The goal is to improve how doctors choose treatments for each patient.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT05426135Recruiting
AI tool to assess cancer risk and guide care
This study tests an artificial intelligence (AI) system that uses your health information and medical images to better judge cancer risk and support diagnosis and treatment decisions. It may help doctors make more consistent assessments by combining clinical records, imaging, and other lab-style data.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06653478Recruiting
Smarter cancer risk assessment using all your medical info
This study is testing a new way to use medical images, records, and other information to better assess cancer risk and guide treatment. It may be a good fit if you have a suspicious spot in your lungs, stomach, or colon, or if you are healthy and want to help with early cancer detection research.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT04743102Recruiting
Multi-point full-thickness biopsy to confirm complete rectal cancer response
This trial checks whether taking small samples from the full thickness of rectal tissue can accurately confirm that rectal cancer has fully responded to chemotherapy and/or radiation. It may help doctors decide the best next step if no tumor is seen after treatment.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05064124Recruiting
Real-time healthcare system during colonoscopy for colon cancer
This study tests a new real-time healthcare system meant to improve how doctors find and monitor colon cancer risk during colonoscopy. You might be able to take part if you are scheduled for a non-emergency colonoscopy and meet other safety and medical criteria.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07508852RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
PET scan for small cell lung cancer diagnosis
This study uses a special PET scan (68Ga-PFD3) to take pictures of small cell lung cancer tumors. The goal is to see if this scan can help doctors better diagnose and evaluate the cancer, which may guide treatment decisions.

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.
