Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT05420064Recruiting
Help with family cancer gene testing and unclear results
This trial helps people and their doctors understand and act on genetic test results, including when results are uncertain. It tests whether a structured approach improves who gets tested in families and helps patients and primary care providers stay up-to-date.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 25 years+ - NCT06177171RecruitingPhase 1
Olaparib and ASTX727 for DNA repair-deficient cancers
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—olaparib (a PARP inhibitor) and ASTX727 (a DNA hypomethylating agent)—for people whose cancers have a specific DNA repair flaw. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05761470RecruitingPhase 2
Test before-surgery cancer treatment for breast tumors with DNA repair gene changes
This trial tests a combination of medications given before surgery (neoadjuvant therapy) for early breast cancer. It is designed for tumors with certain “DNA repair” gene mutations and aims to improve treatment results while shrinking or controlling the cancer.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07419893Recruiting
Study of TP53 gene test results
This study looks at results from people who have already had TP53 gene testing through IEO’s genetics clinic. It helps doctors learn more about how this gene relates to cancer risk.
MilanAges 18–90 - NCT01689584Recruiting
Study of genetic variants in cancer families
This study looks at how a specific DNA genetic change (variant) runs within cancer families. It may help researchers better understand cancer risk and improve genetic testing and interpretation.
Bastia, CorsicaAges 18 years+ - NCT03667417Recruiting
Study of people with BRCA1/BRCA2 cancer gene changes
This study follows people who carry a harmful BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutation, whether or not they currently have breast or ovarian cancer. The goal is to better understand cancer risk over time and how being a carrier may affect screening and care.
MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT03702309Recruiting
Banking and testing blood samples to study cancer
This study collects blood samples to “test and store” (bank) information that may help doctors understand cancer in the future. You might be able to join if you’re an adult with confirmed cancer or a higher-than-usual risk for cancer.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04090567RecruitingPhase 2
Olaparib with two partners for advanced BRCA breast cancer
This trial tests whether the drug olaparib works better when combined with cediranib or AZD6738 in people with advanced or metastatic BRCA (inherited) breast cancer. It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth after prior treatment with a PARP inhibitor.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04150042RecruitingPhase 1
Test of chemotherapy plus your own stem cells for metastatic cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a treatment approach using standard chemotherapy along with stem cells taken from you to treat metastatic pancreatic or breast cancer. It is mainly designed to check safety and find the best way to give the treatment, and it may offer an option for people whose cancer has spread.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04151342Recruiting
Study of Canadian adults with cancer rare DNA changes
This real-world study follows adults in Canada who have cancer that was tested and found to have rare molecular (DNA/protein) changes. It helps researchers understand how these rare findings show up and how care happens in everyday practice.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT04294927Recruiting
Tube removal first, then ovaries later for high-risk women
This study looks at whether removing the fallopian tubes first, and the ovaries later, is safe for women with certain inherited gene mutations that raise ovarian cancer risk. It may help you understand a prevention approach when you’re considered high risk and have finished having children.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 25–50 - NCT04322890RecruitingPhase 2
Study for advanced lung cancer with gene mutations
This Phase 2 trial studies treatment strategies for people with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have certain cancer gene mutations (like EGFR, ALK, or ROS1). It aims to see how different treatments affect survival and tumor response.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT05735717RecruitingPhase 2
T-cell transplant using depleted receptors for blood cancers
This Phase 2 study tests a specialized stem cell transplant that removes certain immune “T-cell” receptors to help treat blood cancers like acute leukemia. It may help your body rebuild a healthier immune system after high-dose treatment.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges Up to 60 years - NCT05097274Recruiting
PET-CT scan for men with prostate cancer and a DNA repair mutation
This study uses a special scan (FCH-PET-CT) to help doctors see prostate cancer more clearly in men who have a known gene change involved in DNA repair. It’s meant to improve staging and assessment, especially around when imaging is needed.
London, Sutton, SurreyAges 18 years+ - NCT05126290Recruiting
Study for CTNNA1 gene family members
This study looks at people who carry a specific “loss-of-function” CTNNA1 gene change—or who are closely related to someone who does. It’s designed to better understand this genetic risk in families and may help guide future care and monitoring.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05129605Recruiting
Prostate cancer genetic risk screening study for men
This study looks at your personal and family risk for prostate cancer and helps decide who should have extra screening like MRI. It may help you find cancer earlier if you are at higher genetic risk.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 35–74 - NCT05274048RecruitingPhase 1
Neratinib plus antibody-drug for HER2-positive stomach or esophagus cancer
This early-phase trial tests neratinib together with an antibody-drug to treat advanced HER2-positive gastro-esophageal (stomach/esophagus) cancer that can’t be removed by surgery. It’s for people whose cancer has progressed after at least one HER2-targeted treatment, aiming to shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05490472RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for advanced solid tumors that stopped responding
This early study tests a new medicine (JAB-2485) in adults with advanced solid tumors (cancers that have spread or grown locally). You may join to see if it can shrink tumors or control the disease when other treatments haven’t worked or weren’t tolerated.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05694715RecruitingPhase 1
Test combo treatment for cancers with DNA repair gene mutations
This Phase 1 study tests a combination of medicines (including niraparib and irinotecan) for advanced solid tumors that have specific DNA repair gene changes, such as BRCA1/2 or related defects. It aims to see whether the treatment can shrink tumors and is safe enough to continue studying.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cancer gene mutation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 171 recruiting cancer gene mutation 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 gene mutation 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 gene mutation 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.
