Recruiting studies
- NCT05534438RecruitingPhase 2

INX-315 for advanced cancers with a specific gene change
This trial studies an experimental medicine (INX-315) given in an “open-label” way to people with advanced cancer that has not responded to prior treatment. It mainly looks at safety and side effects first, and also checks how well it works in cancers with a specific gene amplification.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05780684Recruiting
Personalized 5-FU dosing for advanced gastrointestinal cancer
This study tests whether doctors can safely find the best dose of 5-FU, a chemotherapy medicine, for people with advanced gastrointestinal cancers. The goal is to reduce side effects while still treating the cancer effectively.
Lebanon, New HampshireAges 18 years+ - NCT05850130Recruiting
Acupuncture to treat nerve pain from oxaliplatin chemotherapy
This study tests whether acupuncture can reduce nerve pain caused by oxaliplatin chemotherapy in people with gastrointestinal cancers. It may help lessen symptoms like tingling, numbness, or burning that affect hands or feet.
CréteilAges 18 years+ - NCT05912972Recruiting
Registry study for women with gynecologic cancers
This is a research study that builds a registry (a record) of women in Korea with cervical, endometrial, or ovarian cancer. It may help researchers better understand these cancers and plan future studies.
SeoulAges 18 years+ - NCT05933876Recruiting
Radiation study for limited spread cancer
This trial looks at whether giving radiation treatment to tumors in people with a limited number of metastases can help control the cancer. It is for adults with certain cancer types that have spread to specific organs, and who can manage daily activities with little or no help.
Albacete, AlbaceteAges 18 years+ - NCT05955105RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
ILB-2109 plus toripalimab for advanced solid cancers
This Phase 1/2 study tests a combination medicine (ILB-2109) plus an immune therapy (toripalimab) in people with advanced solid tumors when standard treatments haven’t worked or aren’t available. It aims to find out if the treatment can shrink tumors and is safe enough to keep studying.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–80 - NCT06006806Recruiting
Proton therapy skin effects study for breast cancer
This study looks at how proton therapy affects the skin in people being treated for early-stage breast cancer. It aims to understand skin reactions better so doctors can reduce side effects.
Knoxville, TennesseeAges 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 - NCT06010862RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T therapy for CEA-positive advanced cancers
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (called CAR-T) that targets a protein called CEA on cancer cells. It is for people with advanced colorectal, esophageal, stomach, or pancreatic cancer who have already tried standard treatments without success.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18 years+ - NCT06014190RecruitingPhase 2
HS-20089 for ovarian and endometrial cancer
This trial tests a new medication (HS-20089) for people with ovarian or endometrial cancer that has come back or spread. It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Hefei, AnfeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06037954Recruiting
Mental health support for older adults with cancer
This study offers mental health care for older adults (65+) with breast, colorectal, lung, or prostate cancer who are getting treatment or recently finished. It aims to help people who are also feeling depressed.
New York, New YorkAges 65 years+ - NCT06087120Recruiting
Can a blood test predict breast cancer treatment response?
This study looks at whether a blood test (ctDNA) can help predict how well breast cancer responds to chemotherapy before surgery. It focuses on people with HER2-positive or triple-negative breast cancer that has not spread far.
JakartaAges 18 years+ - NCT06116019Recruiting
Online adaptive radiotherapy for cancer patients
This trial tests a new radiation therapy machine that adjusts the radiation plan in real-time based on changes in your body. It may help make treatment more precise and reduce side effects.
BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT06138561Recruiting
Bladder cancer treatment study for older adults
This study looks at how well different treatments work for older adults with bladder cancer that has spread and who cannot take cisplatin. It also checks if geriatric assessments help guide care.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 65 years+ - NCT06199895RecruitingPhase 2
Study of paclitaxel for patients with taxane-resistant solid tumors
This trial tests paclitaxel given as tiny micelle particles for people whose cancer (pancreatic, bile duct, lung, stomach, esophagus, or breast) stopped responding to taxane chemotherapy or did not shrink. The goal is to see if this treatment can help when standard taxanes no longer work.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06215950RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T cell therapy for advanced gynecologic cancer with CD70 protein
This trial tests a new treatment called CAR-T cells that target a protein called CD70 found on some gynecologic cancer cells. It is for people whose cancer has advanced or spread and has not responded to or stopped responding to standard treatments.
Wuhu, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT06220214RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study of chemo before breast cancer surgery with special mammogram
This trial tests whether a special mammogram with contrast can help doctors see how well chemotherapy is working before breast cancer surgery. It is for women who plan to have at least 4 rounds of chemo before their operation.
Stony Brook, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06236373Recruiting
Understanding cancer survivors' needs in Reggio Emilia

Tislelizumab for cancer patients with minimal residual disease
This trial is for people who have completed standard cancer treatments (like surgery, chemo or radiation) and have no visible cancer on scans, but may still have very small amounts of cancer DNA in their blood. The study tests whether the drug tislelizumab can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
Villejuif, Val De MarneAges 18 years+ - NCT06420206Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 13,068 recruiting cancer 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 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.
