LondonAges Any age - NCT06274879RecruitingPhase 2
Radiofrequency ablation for bile duct cancer
This trial tests a procedure that uses heat (radiofrequency ablation) to treat bile duct cancer that can't be removed by surgery. If you have this type of cancer and are starting standard treatment, this study wants to see if adding this heat treatment is safe and might help.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT05942300RecruitingPhase 1
CPI-0209 plus platinum chemo for recurring ovarian cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests CPI-0209 combined with the standard platinum chemotherapy approach in people whose ovarian (or related) cancer has returned after prior platinum treatment. The goal is to find a safe dose and see whether this combination can help keep the cancer under control.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04767568Recruiting
Testing a blood test to guide colorectal cancer screening care
This study looks at whether a simple blood test can help guide the care of people being evaluated for colorectal cancer. It may support earlier or clearer decision-making alongside existing screening or colonoscopy results.
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT06518135Recruiting
Sentinel node biopsy after chemo for initial node-positive breast cancer
This trial checks whether a less invasive sentinel lymph node biopsy (removing just a few nodes) can safely replace full lymph node removal for people whose breast cancer and underarm lymph nodes responded well to chemotherapy. It is for patients who initially had 1 to 3 involved nodes and now appear cancer-free in the armpit.
Henan, HenanAges 18–70 - NCT06276465RecruitingPhase 3
Darolutamide with or without radiation for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests whether adding radiation therapy to the drug darolutamide helps men with a specific type of advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy and has spread to a few spots seen on special scans. The study aims to find the best way to control the cancer while keeping side effects manageable.
LorientAges 18 years+ - NCT07157033RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing XER-001 with radiation for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new way to deliver a drug called amifostine (XER-001) alongside intense radiation therapy (SBRT) for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer that can't be surgically removed. The goal is to see if it's safe and effective at protecting healthy tissue while targeting the tumor.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00898638Recruiting
Tissue sample study for head and neck cancer patients and healthy people
This study collects tissue samples from people with head and neck cancer and from healthy volunteers. The samples help researchers better understand the disease and may support future tests or treatments.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06664151RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Flu vaccine injected into skin cancer before surgery
This study tests whether injecting the seasonal flu vaccine directly into a skin cancer tumor can help the immune system attack it. You would receive the injection before your scheduled surgery to remove the cancer.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06298084RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
HER3-DXd for Advanced Breast Cancer After T-DXd
This study tests a new drug called HER3-DXd (alone or combined with other medicines) for people with advanced breast cancer that has already been treated with T-DXd (Enhertu) and then got worse. The goal is to see if the new drug can shrink tumors safely.
Villejuif, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT06008054RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo for advanced gastrointestinal cancers
This trial tests two new drugs (BL-B01D1 and SI-B003) alone or with a standard immunotherapy for advanced gastrointestinal cancers. The goal is to see if these combinations shrink tumors and are safe.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07559877RecruitingPhase 3
Chlorhexidine spray to prevent radiation skin damage in throat cancer
This study tests whether a chlorhexidine spray (an antiseptic liquid) can prevent or reduce skin damage caused by radiation therapy in people being treated for nasopharyngeal cancer (cancer in the back of the nose/throat). Radiation dermatitis—painful redness and irritation of the skin—is a common side effect, and this spray may help protect your skin during treatment.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–75 - NCT06937177RecruitingPhase 2
Testing mifomelatide to help maintain weight during chemo
This trial tests an investigational drug called mifomelatide (TCMCB07) to see if it can help people with newly diagnosed colorectal or pancreatic cancer maintain a healthy weight while receiving certain types of chemotherapy. You would give yourself a daily injection under the skin.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06848842RecruitingPhase 2
Ivonescimab and chemotherapy for colorectal cancer that spread only to the liver
This trial tests a new drug called ivonescimab combined with chemotherapy for people whose colorectal cancer has spread only to the liver and cannot be surgically removed right away. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink the tumors enough to allow surgery or other treatments.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06037980RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Chemotherapy before surgery for high-risk bile duct cancer
This trial tests whether receiving chemotherapy (cisplatin, gemcitabine, and nab-paclitaxel) before surgery can improve outcomes for people with high-risk bile duct or gallbladder cancer. It compares this approach to going straight to surgery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cancer patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 3,534 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.
