Drug for tumors with NTRK or ROS1 gene fusions
This trial studies an investigational pill (XZP-5955) for solid tumors that have specific gene changes: NTRK or ROS1 fusions. It is meant for people whose cancer is advanced or has spread, and who may not have good standard treatment options.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05236062Recruiting
Exercise during steroid treatment for GVHD
This study looks at whether doing moderate-to-vigorous exercise can reduce complications from corticosteroids in people with newly diagnosed GVHD. It may help your body tolerate steroids better, while checking exercise safety during treatment.

This trial studies whether a breathing support therapy given after surgery can reduce the chance of lung complications. It focuses on people having gynecologic tumor surgery who are at higher risk for breathing or lung problems.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–90 - NCT06803745Recruiting
Comparing two radiation doses for leukemia transplant
This trial tests whether a lower or higher dose of total body irradiation works better for people with acute leukemia getting a stem cell transplant for the first time. It aims to find the safest and most effective radiation level to prepare your body for the transplant.
Baltimore, MarylandAges Any age - NCT04332874RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab with local limb chemotherapy for sarcoma in arms or legs
This trial tests whether giving pembrolizumab along with chemotherapy delivered directly into an arm or leg (isolated limb infusion) can shrink sarcoma tumors. It is for people with advanced or metastatic sarcoma in an arm or leg who can safely have this local treatment.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 12 years+ - NCT05307367Recruiting
Study exercise and body muscle changes in advanced lung cancer
This study looks at why cancer can cause loss of muscle in people with advanced non–small cell lung cancer, and whether exercise can improve or explain those muscle changes. You may be asked to do physical testing and answer questionnaires while receiving standard palliative cancer treatment.
Copenhagen, DKAges 18–100 - NCT06401603RecruitingPhase 1
Study of three drugs for advanced CML and Ph+ AML
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (decitabine, lisaftoclax, and olverembatinib) for people with advanced chronic myeloid leukemia or Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute myeloid leukemia who have not responded to or could not tolerate previous treatments.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05256641RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Acalabrutinib maintenance after transplant or CAR T for large B-cell lymphoma
This trial studies acalabrutinib given after certain lymphoma treatments (like stem cell transplant or CAR T therapy) to help keep the lymphoma from coming back. It’s for people whose disease has shrunk (partial response) or fully gone away (complete response) after those treatments.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT05365035RecruitingPhase 2
Phase 2 trial for high-risk blood cancers with timed chemo
This study tests a mix of medicines (cladribine, low-dose cytarabine, and venetoclax) alternated with azacitidine and venetoclax to treat higher-risk CMML or MDS after prior treatment or when standard treatment may not work well. It may help by improving blood counts and controlling the disease.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06256627Recruiting
Maintenance treatment of 'ITIVA' for AML in remission
This trial tests a maintenance treatment called 'ITIVA' for people with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have achieved remission after initial chemotherapy and consolidation therapy. The goal is to see if this treatment helps keep the leukemia from coming back.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 14 years+ - NCT06676527Recruiting
Vorolanib for advanced kidney cancer after first treatment
This trial tests a targeted therapy pill, vorolanib, for people with advanced kidney cancer that has clear cell features and has gotten worse after initial treatment. It may offer a new option when standard second-line treatments are not working.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT06566742RecruitingPhase 2
Olutasidenib for IDH1-mutated blood disorders
This trial tests an oral drug called olutasidenib in people with certain low-risk blood cancers or a pre-cancer condition. It may help by targeting a specific genetic change (IDH1 mutation) found in your blood cells.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07366658RecruitingPhase 1
Experimental therapy for neuroendocrine tumors that did not respond to treatment
This trial tests an experimental therapy (NEUK203-13) for people with neuroendocrine tumors, including small cell lung cancer, that have not responded to or stopped responding to standard treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and to look for early signs that it might shrink tumors, especially in people whose tumors have a specific marker called DLL3.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT07089953Recruiting
Does the doctor's computer use affect your visit?
This study looks at whether a small change in how doctors use electronic health records can improve how compassionate and professional they seem during your clinic visit. If you join, you would fill out a short survey after your appointment.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03214562RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Venetoclax plus chemotherapy for acute leukemia
This trial studies how well venetoclax combined with chemotherapy treats newly diagnosed or returning (relapsed) or hard-to-treat (refractory) acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It’s mainly for people who can’t use standard AML therapy well, or whose disease came back.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03471260RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Ivosidenib and venetoclax for IDH1-mutated leukemia or MDS
This Phase 1/2 study tests whether the medicines ivosidenib and venetoclax (with or without azacitidine) can help people with certain “IDH1-mutated” blood cancers like AML or high-risk MDS. It’s meant for patients whose disease has come back, doesn’t respond, or who can’t safely get standard chemotherapy.

Trial of stem cell therapy for recurrent high-grade brain tumors
This Phase 1 study tests an advanced stem-cell treatment (hMSC-DNX2401) for recurrent high-grade glioma, including certain brain tumor types that come back. It aims to see if the treatment can be safely delivered and whether it can help control the tumor after standard therapies have already been tried.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05371808Recruiting
Early vs delayed treatment for high-risk CLL: cost study
This study compares early treatment versus delaying treatment in newly diagnosed people with high-risk CLL/SLL who feel well. It mainly looks at the overall “costs and value” of each approach and asks patients to complete short health and quality-of-life questionnaires.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04265430RecruitingPhase 4
MRI scans to predict normal-tissue side effects after treatment
This trial uses repeated MRI scans to better predict which patients may develop painful jaw and mouth tissue problems after radiation and/or certain bone or blood-vessel medicines. It may help clinicians spot problems earlier and tailor follow-up care.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04022239RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Bendamustine to prevent transplant immune complications
This early-phase study tests whether giving the drug bendamustine (with or without another chemo drug) can lower the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after a stem cell transplant. GVHD is an immune reaction where the donor’s cells attack your body. If it works and is safe, it could improve outcomes after transplant.
Houston, TexasAges 18–70

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cancer patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 3,611 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.
