A safety trial of trifluridine/tipiracil for DPD-deficient patients
This trial tests a chemotherapy drug (trifluridine/tipiracil) in people with metastatic colorectal or gastroesophageal cancer who have a DPD deficiency. DPD deficiency means your body may have trouble breaking down certain chemotherapy drugs, which can lead to serious side effects. This study aims to see if this drug is safe and effective for you.

MRI screening for brain metastases in aggressive breast cancer
This trial uses an MRI scan to look for early signs of breast cancer spreading to the brain in people with certain aggressive breast cancer types (triple-negative or HER2-positive) that are stage IIb or III. The goal is to find and treat brain metastases earlier, before they cause symptoms.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06249308Recruiting
Liquid biopsy test for early ovarian cancer detection
This study is testing a blood test to see if it can catch ovarian cancer early. You may be eligible if you have been recently diagnosed with ovarian cancer and haven't started treatment yet.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 40–75 - NCT06249321RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus radiation for advanced pancreatic cancer with normal CA19-9
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy (mFOLFIRINOX) and radiation therapy for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has stopped responding to chemotherapy and whose CA19-9 tumor marker levels are normal. The goal is to see if this approach can help when standard treatments are no longer working.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06249672Recruiting
Long-term outcomes after rectal preservation for rectal cancer
This study looks at how well people with rectal cancer do over time when they try to keep their rectum instead of having surgery. It is for patients who have already had chemoradiation and whose tumor has shrunk to a small scar (2 cm or less).
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT06249750RecruitingPhase 2
Heat shock therapy for castration-resistant prostate cancer
This trial tests a near-infrared whole-body heat shock technique to treat prostate cancer that no longer responds to hormone therapy. It aims to see if this heat-based approach can help control the cancer.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–90 - NCT06251076RecruitingPhase 4
Outpatient teclistamab for multiple myeloma: a safety study
This study tests whether giving the drug teclistamab (a treatment for multiple myeloma) in an outpatient setting is safe and works well. You may qualify if you have had at least three prior treatments, have a caregiver to support you, and meet other health criteria.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06251297Recruiting
Reflexology to prevent nerve damage from chemotherapy
This study tests if foot reflexology can help prevent nerve damage caused by a chemotherapy drug called oxaliplatin in people with colorectal cancer. If it works, it could reduce pain, tingling, or numbness in the hands and feet.
Toulouse, CHU de ToulouseAges 18 years+ - NCT06251388RecruitingPhase 2
Chemoradiation plus Cadonilimab for advanced cervical cancer
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug called Cadonilimab (AK104) to standard chemoradiation can help people with locally advanced cervical cancer that has not spread to distant organs. The goal is to improve treatment outcomes for those who cannot have surgery.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT06252129Recruiting
Improving Lymph Node Removal During Lung Cancer Surgery
This trial studies a better way to remove and examine lymph nodes from lung cancer surgery specimens. It aims to improve how doctors check for cancer spread, which may help guide your treatment after surgery.

- 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.
