ACM-CpG injection for advanced solid tumors that responded to immunotherapy before

ACR-368 plus low-dose gemcitabine for advanced head and neck cancer
This study tests a new combination of two drugs, ACR-368 and low-dose gemcitabine, for people with head and neck cancer that has come back or spread. The goal is to see if this treatment can help when immunotherapy or other therapies haven't worked.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06587490RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation therapy for limited metastatic cancers
This trial tests whether adding focused, high-dose radiation (SABR) to standard drug therapy can better control cancer that has spread to a few spots in the body. It is for people starting or resuming cancer medicines for newly found or growing metastases.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06241846RecruitingPhase 2
Study of YL201 for advanced prostate cancer that has spread and stopped responding to hormone therapy
This trial tests a new drug, YL201, in men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and is no longer controlled by standard hormone therapy. The goal is to see if YL201 can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT06577441RecruitingPhase 2
Adding enasidenib to usual care for higher-risk MDS with IDH2 mutation
This trial tests whether adding enasidenib (a targeted pill) to the standard chemotherapy (cedazuridine-decitabine) works better than the chemotherapy alone for people with higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) whose cells have a specific change in the IDH2 gene.
Berkeley, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06567782RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemotherapy vs. chemotherapy alone for stage 3 colon cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug dostarlimab to standard chemotherapy (CAPEOX) is more effective than chemotherapy alone for people with a specific type of colon cancer (MMRp/MSS) that has not spread. It is given before surgery to shrink the tumor.
AalstAges 18 years+ - NCT06567743RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a new virus therapy for high-risk bladder cancer
This trial tests a new virus-based medicine, cretostimogene grenadenorepvec, given directly into the bladder for people with high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It may help prevent the cancer from coming back, especially for those who have not had BCG treatment or whose cancer did not respond to BCG.

Common questions
- 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.
