Madison, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT07672392Recruiting
Exercise after breast reconstruction surgery
This trial tests whether a structured exercise program after DIEP flap breast reconstruction helps improve physical fitness compared to standard care. It may help women recover strength and well-being after surgery.
Beaumont, DublinAges 18 years+ - NCT03897270Recruiting
Breast cancer or healthy women for new breast imaging
This study tests a new way to look at the breast using photoacoustic imaging, alongside a breast MRI. It may help researchers see breast masses more clearly, even though it’s mainly for measuring how well the imaging works.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04800393Recruiting
Breast surgery anesthesia and its effects on immunity and survival
This study compares two ways of giving anesthesia during breast cancer surgery to see how they affect the immune system and outcomes after surgery. It may help identify which anesthesia approach is better for people like you having early-stage, operable breast cancer surgery.
MoscowAges 45–74 - NCT05337631Recruiting
Care patterns for older people receiving head and neck radiation
This study looks at special ways of providing care for people age 65 and older with certain head-and-neck cancers when they receive radiation (with or without chemotherapy). It aims to understand how care should be organized to better support older patients during treatment.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 65 years+ - NCT04005690RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Targeted drug treatment for pancreatic cancer using pathway changes
This early-phase trial tests how well targeted medicines (and possibly an immunotherapy drug) work for people with pancreatic cancer that can’t be fully removed with surgery or has spread. It also looks at whether the treatment is safe and can shrink or control tumors by blocking specific cancer pathways.
Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT07051265Enrolling by invitation
Pain relief for head and neck cancer patients using TENS or acupressure
This study compares two non-drug methods—TENS (a mild electrical device) and acupressure (gentle finger pressure on specific points)—to help manage pain in people with head and neck cancer. If you have cancer-related pain and need medication, you may be able to join.
Kaohsiung CityAges 20–100 - NCT05843877RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery choice and insulin islet transplant to prevent leaks
This Phase 3 trial studies a pancreatic surgery approach (pylorus-preserving Whipple or similar) and, in some cases, moving your insulin-making cells into your body to help prevent a dangerous post-surgery leak from the pancreas. It may help people who are considered high risk for this complication based on pancreas texture and duct size.
DresdenAges 18 years+ - NCT05700721RecruitingPhase 2
Niraparib and dostarlimab for cancer with growing brain spots
This trial studies whether the medicines niraparib and dostarlimab can slow advanced cancers that have active, growing brain metastases. It is meant for people whose brain tumors can be measured on MRI and who have had at least one previous treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06008288RecruitingPhase 2
JAB-21822 for advanced pancreatic or other solid tumors with KRAS G12C
This study tests an experimental pill called JAB-21822 that targets a specific gene change (KRAS G12C) in advanced pancreatic cancer or other solid tumors. It's for people who have already tried standard chemotherapy and whose cancer has gotten worse or who couldn't handle the side effects.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT07471451Recruiting
Eating and quality of life after jaw reconstruction
This study looks at how well people can chew, eat, and speak after having jaw or face reconstruction due to cancer. It aims to understand how these functions affect your daily life and happiness.
Clermont-FerrandAges 18 years+ - NCT06387017Recruiting
Can blood tests improve lung cancer screening in smokers with artery disease?
This study looks at whether certain blood tests can help find lung cancer early in people who have smoked for a long time and also have artery disease. The goal is to see if adding these tests to current screening methods can better identify those at highest risk.
MarseilleAges 45–80 - NCT05339568Recruiting
Smartphone support program for people with advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a “whole process follow-up” care plan, using a smartphone, to support people with non-small cell lung cancer from diagnosis through treatment and follow-up. It may help you manage care steps more smoothly if you’re not a candidate for curative (radical) treatment or don’t want surgery.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT07058012RecruitingPhase 2
Testing immunotherapy for ctDNA-positive colorectal cancer after treatment
This trial is for people with colorectal cancer whose ctDNA blood test is still positive after surgery and chemotherapy. It tests two immunotherapy drugs (cemiplimab alone or with fianlimab) to see if they can eliminate the remaining cancer cells and prevent the cancer from coming back.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07301983Enrolling by invitation
Testing a faster way to check lymph nodes in lung cancer surgery
This trial compares a new, quick test called OSNA to the standard method for checking lymph nodes in people with early-stage lung cancer who are having robotic surgery. The goal is to see if the new test works as well or better.
Pisa, PisaAges 18 years+ - NCT06936774RecruitingPhase 3
Intensive follow-up after rectal cancer surgery to improve recovery
This study tests whether a more intensive follow-up program after rectal cancer surgery can improve your recovery, daily function, and overall quality of life. If you've had a temporary ileostomy and are waiting for reversal, this extra support may help you feel better faster.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT06127797Recruiting
MRI surveillance study for breast cancer survivors with dense breasts
This study is testing whether adding an MRI to your regular mammogram can help find any new breast cancers earlier. It is for women who have had breast cancer before and still have dense breast tissue, making mammograms harder to read.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05799274RecruitingPhase 1
Safety study of a new PET imaging drug for cancers
This Phase 1 study tests how safe RAD301 is and how it behaves in the body when given for PET imaging in healthy volunteers and people with certain cancers. It may help doctors learn whether this imaging drug can clearly show cancer areas and be tolerated well.
Princeton, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07292298RecruitingPhase 2
Rectal cancer brachytherapy after treatment to avoid surgery
This trial tests a special type of internal radiation (brachytherapy) for people with low-lying rectal cancer that did not fully go away after standard chemoradiation and chemotherapy. The goal is to shrink the remaining tumor enough to avoid major surgery like removing the rectum or colostomy.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–100 - NCT07714018Recruiting
Comparing two weight loss programs for kidney cancer patients
This study tests two different weight loss programs to see which one helps prevent kidney cancer from growing in people with small kidney masses who are under active surveillance. It may help by improving overall health and potentially slowing cancer progression.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07619391Recruiting
MyCap App: Tracking Treatment Time Burden in Pancreatic Cancer
This study asks pancreatic cancer patients to use a smartphone app called MyCap that tracks how much time their cancer treatment takes—like travel to appointments, time in the clinic, and side effects. Researchers want to understand the full burden of treatment to help doctors and future patients plan better.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cancer patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 3,618 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.
