Testing a dye to see breast cancer during surgery
This trial uses a special dye called ICG that makes cancer glow under a special camera during breast cancer surgery. Doctors want to find the best time to give the dye so they can see the cancer clearly and remove all of it in one operation.

Organoids to personalize ovarian cancer treatment
This study uses lab-grown tumor models (organoids) from your tissue or fluid sample to find the best treatment for your ovarian cancer.
Aviano, PordenoneAges 18 years+ - NCT06230055RecruitingPhase 4
Chemotherapy for breast cancer that has spread to the spinal fluid
This trial tests a chemotherapy drug given directly into the spinal fluid for people with HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain and spinal cord (called leptomeningeal metastasis). It may help when standard treatments have stopped working or caused too many side effects.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06230445RecruitingPhase 3
Digital health app for lung cancer management
This trial tests a digital health app to help manage the entire treatment process for lung cancer. It may assist patients who are already undergoing or have completed treatments like surgery or chemotherapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06232122Recruiting
New PET scans to detect ovarian cancer recurrence
This study uses two types of PET/CT scans (68Ga-FAPI-46 and 18F-FDG) to look for any returning ovarian cancer. The goal is to find recurrence early so you and your doctor can plan the next steps.
Taoyuan CityAges 30–80 - NCT06232395Recruiting
Early detection and monitoring of stomach cancer
This study is looking for people with stomach discomfort who are coming to this hospital for an endoscopy. Researchers will use the test results to help catch stomach cancer early and keep an eye on it after surgery.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06234007RecruitingPhase 2
Short radiation plus combo therapy for advanced rectal cancer
This trial tests a short course of radiation therapy followed by a combination of three drugs (fruquintinib, adebrelimab, and CAPOX chemotherapy) before surgery for people with locally advanced rectal cancer. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
WuhanAges 18–75 - NCT06234423RecruitingPhase 1
A study of CUSP06 for advanced solid tumors
This study tests a new drug called CUSP06 for people with advanced solid tumors, especially ovarian cancer that has stopped responding to platinum chemotherapy. It may help if standard treatments no longer work.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06235697RecruitingPhase 3
Hormone therapy with or without lymph node radiation for prostate cancer
This trial tests combining hormone therapy with different types of radiation (including high-dose external beam and brachytherapy) for men with prostate cancer that has a higher chance of coming back. It aims to see if adding radiation to the lymph nodes helps control the cancer better.
Antioch, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06236438RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Livmoniplimab plus budigalimab and chemo for untreated lung cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two immune system drugs (livmoniplimab and budigalimab) plus standard chemotherapy compared to the current standard treatment (pembrolizumab plus chemo) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has not been treated yet. The goal is to see if the new combination works better at controlling the cancer.

- 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.
