Study of DV and Toripalimab before surgery for HER2-low breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (DV and Toripalimab) with chemotherapy before surgery for a specific type of breast cancer (HER2-low, HR-negative) that has not spread too far. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT05224518Recruiting

Total treatment with tailored radiation for advanced rectal cancer
This study tests a “total neoadjuvant” approach—chemotherapy first, then radiation—using adaptive (tailored) radiation planning for people with locally advanced rectal cancer. It may help improve tumor control while adjusting the radiation based on how your cancer and anatomy respond.
BergenAges 18 years+ - NCT06320223Recruiting
PSMA PET scan registry for prostate cancer outcomes
This registry collects information from people with prostate cancer who have had a PSMA PET scan. Researchers want to learn how well this scan predicts outcomes over at least 3 years, which may help improve future care.
EssenAges 18 years+ - NCT06196788RecruitingPhase 2
Artery infusion chemo for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a treatment called transcatheter arterial infusion, where chemotherapy drugs are delivered directly to the tumor through a thin tube in an artery. It's for people with advanced pancreatic cancer who haven't had other treatments yet.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05861271RecruitingPhase 2
Adjuvant pyrotinib plus capecitabine for tiny HER2 breast cancer
This trial studies whether adding pyrotinib and capecitabine after surgery can lower the risk of cancer coming back in people with very small, lymph-node–negative, HER2-positive breast cancer. It’s for patients who fit specific tumor size and HER2 test results and who can safely take chemotherapy-like medicines and stay on contraception during treatment.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT05217407Recruiting
Registry study for people with rare or advanced cancers
This is a study that collects information about people with rare cancers (or cancers where the source is unknown) and advanced-stage cancer. It helps researchers build a knowledge database to improve understanding and care for these cancers in Asia.
Chuo-ku, TokyoAges 18 years+ - NCT06326736RecruitingEarly Phase 1
mRNA vaccine after surgery for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a personalized mRNA vaccine (made from your tumor's unique markers) combined with standard chemotherapy after surgery for pancreatic cancer. The goal is to see if the vaccine can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT06327594Recruiting
Muscle loss check in lung cancer surgery patients
This study looks at muscle loss (sarcopenia) in people with lung cancer who are about to have surgery. It uses a CT or MRI scan to check your muscle health, which may help doctors better plan your care.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 40–100 - NCT06329908RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Dendritic cell vaccine plus immunotherapy for resistant lung cancer
This trial tests a new treatment combining a dendritic cell vaccine (a type of immune therapy that trains your body to fight cancer) with additional immunotherapy drugs. It is for people with advanced lung cancer that has stopped responding to standard immunotherapy.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–85 - NCT06330012Recruiting
Understanding resistance to T-Dxd in HER2+ breast cancer
This study looks at why some HER2-positive breast cancer patients stop responding to the drug T-Dxd (trastuzumab deruxtecan). It aims to find out how resistance develops, which may help improve future treatments.
SeoulAges Any age - NCT06331988Recruiting
Study of colon cancer, bacteria, and the immune system
This study looks at how bacteria in your gut, your immune system, and colon cancer interact. It aims to understand these connections to improve future treatments.
MilanAges 18–75 - NCT06335693Recruiting
Short-course radiation after prostate surgery
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation therapy (hypofractionated radiotherapy) for men who have already had their prostate removed and still have signs of cancer (like rising PSA). The goal is to see if this can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06338332Recruiting
Stent before surgery for right-sided colon blockage from cancer
This trial tests whether placing a stent first to relieve a blockage in the right side of the colon improves outcomes before surgery for colon cancer. It aims to help patients who come to the hospital with a blocked colon due to cancer.
Breda, North BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT06338683RecruitingPhase 3
Olanzapine for advanced upper digestive and lung cancer survival
This study tests whether a medicine called olanzapine can improve survival in people with advanced cancers of the upper digestive system or lungs. Olanzapine may help with appetite and weight, which are common problems in these cancers.
Xining, QinghaiAges 18–80 - NCT06343077RecruitingPhase 2
Hiltonol injection for prostate cancer on active surveillance
This trial tests a drug called Hiltonol (Poly-ICLC) given directly into the prostate tumor along with an injection under the skin. It is for men with low-risk prostate cancer who are on active surveillance, to see if the drug can slow or stop the cancer from growing.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06341894RecruitingPhase 2
Dalpiciclib and hormone therapy for early breast cancer
This trial tests a new pill (dalpiciclib) combined with hormone therapy for women with early-stage, hormone receptor positive/HER2-negative breast cancer. The goal is to see if this combination can lower the chance of cancer coming back after surgery.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT06341595RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo, radiation and immunotherapy before surgery for stomach cancer with PALM
This trial tests combining chemotherapy, radiation, and an immunotherapy drug (sintilimab) before surgery for advanced stomach cancer that has spread to lymph nodes near the aorta (called PALM). The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor enough to allow complete removal.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT05186493Recruiting
Robot-assisted surgery for advanced pelvic cancer
This study looks at a robot-assisted, minimally invasive surgery approach for people with advanced pelvic cancer that needs a pelvic exenteration operation. It may help some patients have surgery with smaller cuts, depending on whether they are good candidates for this type of procedure.
OsloAges 18 years+ - NCT06221748RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of DV with cadonilimab for HER2-positive stomach cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (DV and cadonilimab) for people with HER2-positive stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has grown after first treatment. It aims to see if this combo can help when standard options have stopped working.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06337019Recruiting

SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06345287RecruitingPhase 2
Adaptive radiotherapy after immunotherapy for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a personalized radiotherapy approach after a few rounds of chemo-immunotherapy for people with HPV-negative head and neck cancer. It aims to adjust the radiation dose based on how the tumor responds, possibly reducing side effects while still controlling the cancer.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06355245Recruiting
Early cancer detection study for unexplained symptoms
This study looks for early signs of cancer in people who have unexplained symptoms like extreme tiredness, weight loss, fever, or abnormal lab tests. You will be monitored and tested to see if markers can find cancer sooner.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 12,833 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.
