Recruiting studies
- NCT01365169Recruiting
How activity level and daily function relate to cancer survival
This study looks at how physical activity (movement during the day) and a clinician-rated “day-to-day function” score relate to overall survival in people with certain cancers. It may help doctors understand who benefits most from activity-focused care and better monitoring.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04428671RecruitingPhase 1
Cemiplimab before and after surgery for high-risk skin cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests the drug cemiplimab given before and after surgery to reduce the chance that high-risk cutaneous squamous cell cancer comes back. You may be a candidate if your cancer is high-risk on pathology or imaging and is planned for surgical removal.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07100704RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab for recurrent olfactory neuroblastoma
This trial tests the drug nivolumab for people with a rare nasal tumor (olfactory neuroblastoma) that has come back or spread and cannot be treated with surgery or radiation. You must have already tried chemotherapy and it stopped working. The goal is to see if nivolumab can shrink the tumor or slow its growth.
Kashiwa, ChibaAges 18 years+ - NCT07118202Recruiting
TheraBionic device for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a device called TheraBionic P1 for people with advanced liver cancer that has not responded to other treatments. It may be an option if you have tried at least two prior therapies or cannot take standard treatments.
Bay City, MichiganAges 22 years+ - NCT06672575RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Ivonescimab for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a new drug called ivonescimab for people whose glioblastoma has come back after standard treatment. The goal is to see if this drug can help shrink the tumor or slow its growth.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06046131Recruiting
Study on factors affecting prostate cancer progression in Guadeloupe and Brittany
This study looks at how genes, environment, and health history affect the growth of prostate cancer. It may help find better ways to treat the disease in people from the Caribbean and Brittany regions of France.
Rennes, Ille-et-VilaineAges 18 years+ - NCT06193356Recruiting
Can endoscopists learn to spot scar after polyp removal?
This study tests whether endoscopists can learn to see scarring and find any remaining tissue after polyp removal. It may help improve how doctors check for cancer coming back.
GhentAges 18 years+ - NCT06341907RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Vaccine and blood test to prevent ovarian cancer return
This trial tests a personalized vaccine for people with epithelial ovarian cancer who still have a small amount of cancer DNA in their blood after surgery. The goal is to see if the vaccine can help stop the cancer from coming back.

JS212 and JS111 for advanced lung cancer with EGFR mutations
This study tests a combination of two new drugs (JS212 and JS111) for advanced non-squamous lung cancer that has an EGFR gene mutation and has progressed despite previous EGFR-targeted therapy. The combination may help control the cancer better than standard treatments.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06973824Recruiting
20 years of pituitary tumor care
This study looks back at people who had surgery for pituitary tumors over the last 20 years. It aims to understand long-term outcomes and help improve future care.
Rome, ITAges 18 years+ - NCT07198945Enrolling by invitation
6 vs 12 month follow-up after large colon polyp removal
This trial compares whether a follow-up colonoscopy at 6 or 12 months is better for people who have had a large polyp (20-50 mm) removed. It will help doctors understand the best timing for surveillance.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07057102Recruiting
Gene testing to predict lung cancer treatment response and monitor recurrence
This trial uses advanced gene sequencing technology on blood and tumor tissue samples from people with non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if this testing can help doctors better predict which treatments will work and detect if the cancer comes back early.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05920798RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Vaccine treatment plus pembrolizumab for recurrent ovarian cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a new cancer vaccine therapy combined with pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) to treat advanced, recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. It may help your immune system recognize and attack the cancer, especially if your tumor has a specific target called FRα.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05283330RecruitingPhase 1
Tested 212Pb imaging drug for certain advanced GRPR tumors
This early-phase study tests how safe and tolerable an experimental radiation drug is for adults with certain advanced or metastatic cancers that show a target called GRPR. Doctors will also use special scans to confirm the tumor has the target so the treatment can be delivered to the right place.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06279364RecruitingPhase 3
Testing SKB264 vs standard chemo for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a new drug called SKB264 against standard chemotherapy options for people with advanced triple-negative breast cancer who have not yet received chemotherapy for their advanced disease. The goal is to see if SKB264 works better than the usual treatments.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07167433Recruiting
Observational study of ovarian cancer from 2021 onward
This study looks at the real-world experiences of patients with ovarian cancer, whether newly diagnosed or with persistent or recurrent disease. It aims to learn more about the disease and its treatment over time.
Barretos/SPAges 18 years+ - NCT05432518RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Pilot study for surgery and new medicine in recurrent glioblastoma
This early study looks at a treatment plan (including resection/surgery and an added medicine) for glioblastoma that has come back after standard therapy. The goal is to see how well it controls tumor growth and whether it is tolerable.

Study of ESG401 for triple-negative breast cancer that has spread
This trial tests a new drug, ESG401, for people with triple-negative breast cancer that has come back or spread and cannot be removed by surgery. It compares ESG401 to standard chemotherapy options to see which works better.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05424029Recruiting
Test blood and lung fluid markers to predict lung cancer return
This study looks at tiny particles from the body (including from lung samples) to see if they can predict whether non-small cell lung cancer comes back after surgery. It may help doctors identify people at higher risk of recurrence sooner, so follow-up plans can be better tailored.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04919629RecruitingPhase 2
Tested treatments for recurrent ovarian cancer with fluid buildup
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding two medicines—APL-2 plus pembrolizumab or pembrolizumab plus bevacizumab—works better than bevacizumab alone for recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. It also focuses on people who have symptoms from cancer-related fluid (ascites or pleural effusion).

PET/CT scan changes during chemo with immune therapy
This study looks at how PET/CT scan results change while you receive chemo plus an immune therapy (a PD-1/PD-L1 medicine) for stage IV lung cancer. The goal is to better understand what the scans mean during treatment, which may help guide care in the future.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cancer recurrence?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 688 recruiting cancer recurrence 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 recurrence 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 recurrence 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.
