Patient feedback in first-line lung cancer treatment study
This study collects patient feedback through questionnaires to see if it helps improve outcomes for people with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer starting chemo-immunotherapy. It may help your care team better understand how you are feeling.
Milan, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT07047885RecruitingPhase 1
Ropeginterferon for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma
This trial tests a medication called Ropeginterferon (a type of immune-supporting protein given as a shot) for people with different stages of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. It may be an option if prior skin treatments haven't worked well enough.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06971614RecruitingPhase 2
T3011 for bladder cancer not responding to standard treatments
This trial tests a drug called T3011 for a type of bladder cancer that hasn't responded to standard treatments like BCG or chemotherapy. It aims to see if T3011 can help shrink the cancer or keep it from growing, offering a new option for people who have limited choices.
Queen Creek, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06327685RecruitingPhase 1
Avapritinib and Decitabine for SM-AHN
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, avapritinib and decitabine, for people with systemic mastocytosis plus another blood cancer (SM-AHN). The goal is to see if the combination works better than either drug alone.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05377034RecruitingPhase 2
Y-90 and immunotherapy vs Y-90 plus placebo for liver cancer
This phase 2 study tests whether adding immunotherapy drugs (atezolizumab and bevacizumab) after Y-90 treatment works better and is safe compared with Y-90 followed by placebo. It is for people with liver cancer that has not spread outside the liver but is difficult to treat.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cancer patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 3,537 recruiting cancer patients 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 patients 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 patients 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.
