Comparing two medicines for chronic graft-versus-host disease
This trial compares two treatments, ruxolitinib and prednisone, as the first therapy for chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD), a condition where donor cells attack your body after a stem cell transplant. The goal is to see which medicine works better and has fewer side effects.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06666439Recruiting
Tracking lobular breast cancer with a blood test
This study is testing a new blood test that looks for cancer DNA to track how lobular breast cancer responds to treatment. It is for people whose cancer has spread and who have not yet started treatment for the spread.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06514235Recruiting
Brachytherapy for vaginal cancer
This study is testing a special type of internal radiation (called image-guided brachytherapy) for women with vaginal cancer. It aims to give high doses directly to the tumor while limiting side effects to nearby organs.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06649812RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a combination targeted therapy (ViPOR) for aggressive B-cell lymphoma
This trial tests a new combination of targeted drugs called ViPOR for people with aggressive B-cell lymphoma that has come back or not responded to previous treatment. The goal is to see if this treatment can help when standard therapies haven't worked.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06647953RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a standard approach for pleuropulmonary blastoma, with or without topotecan
This trial compares a standard surgery and chemotherapy plan for type I pleuropulmonary blastoma (PPB) to adding the drug topotecan for types II and III PPB. The goal is to see if the extra drug helps shrink tumors and improve outcomes for children with more advanced disease.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 21 years - NCT06655246RecruitingPhase 1
Ziftomenib and imatinib for advanced GIST
This trial tests a new drug, ziftomenib, combined with imatinib for people with advanced or spreading gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) that have a KIT mutation. It may help if your GIST has gotten worse while on imatinib.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06645808RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET imaging study for various solid tumors
This study uses a special PET scan to see if a new imaging agent can help find and monitor certain solid tumors. It is for people with colon, rectal, sarcoma, breast, lung, head and neck, esophageal, stomach, pancreas, bladder cancers, or glioblastoma who have had standard treatment before surgery.
Groningen, Provincie GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT06656390RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing ALK201 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, ALK201, in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and can shrink tumors.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18–75 - NCT06651593RecruitingPhase 2
BND-22 and cemiplimab for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a combination of two new drugs, BND-22 and cemiplimab, for people with certain advanced solid tumors like lung, colorectal, or ovarian cancer. It aims to see if this treatment helps control the cancer and looks at specific markers in your blood and tissue.

Chemotherapy plus immunotherapy and radiation for stage III lung cancer
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug called cemiplimab to chemotherapy before a shorter course of radiation helps older or less fit patients with stage III lung cancer. It aims to improve treatment results while being more manageable for patients who might not tolerate standard therapies.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT06647836Enrolling by invitation

- Are there clinical trials for cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 12,865 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.
