Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06479239RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immune cell therapy for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new immune cell therapy (EGFRBi armed PBMC) for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that can't be removed by surgery. It aims to see if this treatment can help control the cancer after you've already tried at least one type of chemotherapy and your disease is stable or better.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06495125RecruitingPhase 2
Study of three drugs for a type of advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (defactinib and avutometinib) plus an immunotherapy (nivolumab) for people with advanced lung adenocarcinoma that has a specific gene mutation (LKB1) and has stopped responding to prior immunotherapy and chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this new combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06495554Recruiting
Danish vulva cancer recurrence study
This study looks at how vulva cancer returns (recurrence) over time. It aims to improve follow-up care for people who have had this type of cancer.
Aarhus NAges 18 years+ - NCT06470243RecruitingPhase 3
Adding carboplatin to cabazitaxel for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests whether adding a chemotherapy drug called carboplatin to another chemotherapy called cabazitaxel works better than cabazitaxel alone for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and no longer responds to hormone therapy. All participants must have already had docetaxel chemotherapy.
Fayetteville, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06472245RecruitingPhase 3
Cancer vaccine for lung cancer that stopped responding to immunotherapy
This trial tests a therapeutic cancer vaccine called OSE2101 for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer whose tumors stopped responding to an immunotherapy drug. The vaccine is designed to help your immune system fight the cancer in a different way.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06469281RecruitingPhase 1
A new immune cell therapy for recurring ovarian cancer
This early-phase trial tests a new immune cell therapy called 27T51, which targets a protein called MUC16 found on ovarian cancer cells. The study is for people with recurrent or treatment-resistant ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer to see if the therapy is safe and works when given alone or with other treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06468280RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy and chemo with surgery for limited-spread stomach cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 antibody) plus chemotherapy or targeted therapy, followed by surgery, for people with stomach cancer that has spread to a limited number of other sites. The goal is to see if this approach can help shrink the cancer enough to make surgery more effective.
Shanghai, Shanghai CityAges 18–79 - NCT06475352RecruitingPhase 2
Tailoring chemo dose for GI cancer patients low in a liver enzyme
This trial tests whether adjusting the dose of chemotherapy drugs (5-FU or capecitabine plus oxaliplatin) based on a liver enzyme test can improve safety and effectiveness for people with gastrointestinal cancer who are starting this type of chemo for the first time.

- How do I know if I qualify for a cancer 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 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.
