Recruiting studies
- NCT06970912RecruitingPhase 2
ctDNA-Guided Reduced Chemo in HR+/HER2- Breast Cancer
This study is testing whether using a ctDNA blood test can help doctors decide if patients with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer can safely receive less intensive chemotherapy after surgery. The goal is to reduce side effects while still preventing the cancer from coming back.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05562778Recruiting

This study tests whether a chatbot can help people complete hereditary cancer genetic risk assessment before a gynecology new-patient visit. It may help you understand and organize next steps for genetic testing, if needed.
Brooklyn, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07436312Recruiting
Effect of ultra-processed foods on cancer risk in high-risk people
This trial looks at whether eating less ultra-processed foods can lower cancer risk in people who are already at high risk for cancer. It is part of a larger program called Interception that helps monitor and reduce cancer risk.
AvignonAges 18 years+ - NCT07751159RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing radiation therapy methods for prostate cancer
This study compares two types of radiation therapy for prostate cancer that hasn't spread. It aims to find which approach is more effective and has fewer side effects.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges Any age - NCT05593497RecruitingPhase 2
Study of hormone therapy plus capivasertib before prostate surgery
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding capivasertib to intensified hormone therapy (leuprolide plus abiraterone) given before prostate surgery can improve outcomes for men with high-risk localized prostate cancer that has a specific tumor marker (PTEN loss). You would also have extra blood tests, scans, and a tissue biopsy for tumor testing.
West Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06306755Recruiting
Risk-based screening for esophageal and gastric cancer
This study tests a new way of screening for esophagus and stomach cancer by using a risk-based approach. It aims to see if this works better than standard screening, and is offered to people in certain villages in China.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 50–69 - NCT07200466Recruiting
Personalized risk assessment for endometrial cancer
This trial uses a prediction model to better estimate the risk of endometrial cancer coming back. It aims to help doctors and patients make more personalized treatment decisions after surgery.
Arnhem, GelderlandAges 45 years+ - NCT05288777RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing follow-up chemo and radiation for high-risk breast cancer
This trial studies a standard follow-up treatment plan that combines chemotherapy and radiation after surgery, and it looks for blood/tissue “biomarkers” that predict who benefits most. If you have high-risk breast cancer that didn’t fully disappear after initial (neoadjuvant) chemo, you may be eligible to help guide better future treatment choices.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06409052Recruiting
Endometrial cancer risk and prevention: patient views
This study talks to women about their experience with endometrial cancer or related conditions to understand what might increase risk and how to prevent it. It includes women with and without a diagnosis so researchers can compare perspectives.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06690320Enrolling by invitation
Education program for women at high risk of breast cancer
This trial tests whether a planned education program can improve health beliefs and reduce fatalism in women who are at high risk for breast cancer. If you are 30 or older and have a high breast cancer risk score, this study may help you feel more in control of your health.
Bornova, İzmirAges 30 years+ - NCT06228599Recruiting
Targeted therapy for pancreatic cancer with high risk of return
This trial tests if personalized medicines, chosen based on the genetic profile of your tumor, can help prevent pancreatic cancer from coming back after surgery. It is for people who have had their pancreatic tumor removed but have features that suggest a higher chance of recurrence.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT05557487Recruiting
Real-world low-dose CT screening for people at high lung risk
This study looks at how people at high risk for lung cancer use low-dose CT scans in real life, and what outcomes happen over time. It may help confirm which groups benefit most from regular screening and support safer screening decisions.
Taichung, TaiwanAges 20–80 - NCT07120087Recruiting
Online program to lower breast cancer risk for high-risk women
This trial tests an online program that teaches women at high risk of breast cancer how to lower their risk. If you were part of the MyPeBS study and found to have high risk, this program might help you take steps to protect your health.
LyonAges 40–74 - NCT07366112RecruitingPhase 2
CDK4/6 inhibitor plus hormone therapy before breast cancer surgery
This trial tests a combination of a CDK4/6 inhibitor (a type of targeted therapy) with hormone therapy given before surgery for early-stage breast cancer that is hormone receptor-positive and HER2-negative. It aims to see if this approach can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06203314Recruiting
Epstein-Barr virus and cancer risk study
This study looks at how Epstein-Barr virus (a common virus) may be linked to cancer risk. If you live in Zhongshan or Wuzhou City and are generally healthy, you may be able to join and help researchers learn more.
Zhongshan, GuangdongAges 30–69 - NCT07458425Recruiting
Lung cancer screening study using AI
This study tests how well an AI tool can predict lung cancer risk, based on your health information. It looks at how patients feel about this approach to screening, with the goal of making screening more personal and effective.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 50–80 - NCT03650595Recruiting
MRI-guided laser treatment for prostate cancer
This trial tests a minimally invasive prostate treatment using MRI guidance and a focal laser to destroy only the cancer spot (not the whole prostate). If you have low-to-intermediate risk, MRI-visible prostate cancer in a limited area, it may help control the cancer while potentially reducing treatment side effects.
Toronto, OntarioAges 40–80 - NCT06416748Recruiting
Minimally invasive hysterectomy for low-risk cervical cancer
This study tests whether a less invasive type of hysterectomy (keyhole surgery) works well for women with very early-stage cervical cancer. It aims to find a safer, faster recovery option for low-risk tumors.
RomaAges 18 years+ - NCT06494696Recruiting
PSMA PET/MRI with MRI for prostate cancer risk
This study tests whether a special scan (PSMA PET/MRI) combined with a standard MRI can better detect prostate cancer. It is for men who have not had a biopsy yet and are suspected of having prostate cancer.
Taoyuan CityAges 40–85 - NCT00539162Recruiting
CA-125 and other tests to check for early ovarian cancer risk
This study looks at how well a blood test called CA-125, along with other markers and checkups, can detect ovarian cancer early. It’s for women considered low risk who will do regular blood tests and possibly a vaginal ultrasound if results suggest it.
Miami, FloridaAges 50–74 - NCT07039552Recruiting
Ovarian cancer risk check for family members
This study looks at family members of people with ovarian cancer to build a better tool for predicting their risk. If you have a BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutation, you may be able to join.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT00898313Recruiting
Study looks for cancer clues in people at high risk for lung cancer
This study enrolls adults who are being checked for possible lung cancer because of concerning symptoms or a high-risk situation. It aims to find molecular (cell/DNA-related) predictors that may help doctors better recognize lung cancer earlier.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07422597Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cancer risk?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 717 recruiting cancer risk 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 risk 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 risk 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.
