This trial tests a combination of two drugs — epcoritamab and a gentler chemo regimen (rituximab-mini CVP) — for older or frailer patients with newly diagnosed aggressive B-cell lymphoma who cannot tolerate standard intensive chemo. The goal is to find a safer but effective treatment option that still controls the lymphoma.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06046794Recruiting
Gemcitabine for metastatic pancreatic cancer patients
This trial tests gemcitabine chemotherapy in people with metastatic pancreatic cancer who cannot take FOLFIRINOX. It aims to see how well gemcitabine works based on a specific tumor marker called GemCore.

This study helps Hispanic families with a child newly diagnosed with cancer understand their options when a clinical trial is offered. It looks at how to better support parents during the informed consent process.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06037941Recruiting
Breath test to check mesothelioma treatment response
This study is testing a special breath test (called an e-nose) to see if it can tell how well your treatment is working for malignant pleural mesothelioma. It is a non-invasive way to monitor your response to therapy.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 30–85 - NCT06039111Recruiting
Comparing two dyes for lymph node mapping in vulvar cancer
This study compares two methods for finding the first lymph node (sentinel node) that may contain cancer in people with vulvar cancer. It uses a dye called indocyanine green alone or with a radioactive tracer (technetium) to see which approach works better for staging the disease.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05431595RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Test a less sedating plan for agitated delirium in cancer
This study looks at whether using certain sleep/behavior medicines (called neuroleptics) with anti-seizure medicines can calm agitation from delirium without needing as much of the usual “neuroleptic” medicines. It may help people with advanced cancer who are confused and very restless or hard to settle.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05792722Recruiting
Testing a prostate-sparing bladder surgery for bladder cancer
This trial studies whether a “prostate-sparing” radical cystectomy is safe and effective for bladder cancer patients who are having surgery. It aims to see if this approach can treat bladder cancer while reducing prostate-related side effects.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05748145RecruitingPhase 2
Metronidazole before colon cancer surgery to reduce recurrence risk
This Phase 2 study tests whether taking metronidazole, an antibiotic, before surgery for colorectal cancer can improve outcomes. Participants take it before their planned operation, and doctors study the cancer tissue and related markers to see if it helps.
Bellinzona, Canton TicinoAges 18 years+ - NCT06022939RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing chemo plus stem cell transplant to chemo alone for AL amyloidosis
This study tests whether adding a stem cell transplant to standard chemotherapy (Dara-VCD) works better than chemotherapy alone for people newly diagnosed with AL amyloidosis. It aims to find the best way to control the disease and improve outcomes.
Goodyear, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06006273RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug combo for children with returning solid tumors
This trial tests a new combination of three chemotherapy drugs (eribulin, irinotecan, and temozolomide) for children and young adults whose solid tumors have come back or not responded to standard treatment. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective.
Houston, TexasAges 1–25 - NCT06008275RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Neratinib and ruxolitinib for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer
This early-phase trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs, neratinib and ruxolitinib, for people with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer who have already had standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and effective.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06028412Enrolling by invitation
Lobectomy vs. Sublobar Resection for Small NSCLC
This trial compares two types of lung surgery for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. You may qualify if you have a small tumor (2 cm or less) with specific features on a CT scan. The goal is to see which surgery offers better outcomes.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 12,855 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.
