TianjinAges 18 years+ - NCT05392413Recruiting
Predicting who benefits from PD-1 antibody for esophageal cancer
This study uses an “immune indicator model” to help predict how well a PD-1 antibody (a cancer-fighting immune drug) works when combined with chemotherapy for stage IV esophageal squamous cell cancer. If you qualify, you receive the treatment and the researchers also look for immune-related signs that may explain who benefits most.
GuangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT05466565Recruiting
Peginterferon antiviral treatment after liver cancer surgery
This trial studies an antiviral medicine given after surgery for liver cancer to help prevent the cancer from coming back. It focuses on people who are hepatitis B–positive (HBsAg positive) and have complete remission on follow-up checks.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–65 - NCT05498064Recruiting
Study of ensartinib for advanced ALK-positive lung cancer
This real-world study looks at how ensartinib works in people with advanced ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose disease has continued or worsened after ALK-targeted therapy. It may help doctors understand how well the treatment works and who benefits most in everyday care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04681469RecruitingPhase 2
Niraparib plus immunotherapy for HPV-negative head and neck cancer
This Phase 2 study tests a cancer “induction then maintenance” plan using a PARP inhibitor (niraparib) along with immunotherapy (TSR-042) in people with HPV-negative head and neck squamous cell cancer. If it works, it may improve control of the cancer after surgery by boosting the immune system and targeting cancer cells’ DNA repair.
BresciaAges 18 years+ - NCT04138212RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo alone vs chemo with radiation before esophagus surgery
This study compares chemotherapy alone versus chemotherapy plus radiation given before surgery for locally advanced esophagus squamous cell cancer. The goal is to see which treatment helps more people have a successful operation and better cancer control.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–70 - NCT05397769RecruitingPhase 2
Test envafolimab with chemoradiation for advanced nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial studies whether adding envafolimab (an immune medicine) to standard chemo and radiation works better for people with locally advanced, untreated nasopharyngeal cancer. It may help the immune system attack the cancer while treatment shrinks it.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT04926584Recruiting
Immunotherapy for advanced or limited-spread lung cancer
This trial tests whether starting immunotherapy can help people with newly diagnosed advanced or limited-spread non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be fully cured with standard local treatments. It may offer a new treatment approach when surgery or definitive chemoradiation isn’t a good option.
Esslingen am NeckarAges 18 years+ - NCT05507411RecruitingPhase 2
Watch-and-wait after chemo-radiation plus immunotherapy for esophagus cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (camrelizumab) to standard chemo-radiation can help some people with operable esophagus cancer avoid immediate surgery, using a “watch and wait” approach. If it works, it may reduce the need for early surgery for carefully selected patients.
Hanzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT05514275RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus endostatin and capecitabine for nasopharyngeal cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding endostatin and capecitabine to standard radiation can improve outcomes for people with non-keratinizing nasopharyngeal cancer that has not responded well to chemotherapy. It may help those with stable or worsening disease after treatment before moving to radiation.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–65 - NCT05276037Recruiting
PET/CT scan to guide liver transplant decisions in liver cancer
This trial studies how a whole-body PET/CT scan using a “tracer” called 18F-FDG can help decide which people with liver cancer (HCC) may benefit from a liver transplant. It may help the transplant team better sort out who is likely to do well after transplant.
AntwerpAges 18–80 - NCT05534906Recruiting
Detecting very early liver cancer and tracking its natural course
This study looks at how well doctors can detect small, early liver cancer and then follow how it changes over time. It may help your care team choose the best next steps based on earlier, clearer detection.
Oxford, OxfordshireAges 18–100 - NCT05541601Recruiting
Study to detect liver cancer early in people with cirrhosis
This study follows people with cirrhosis to see how best to detect liver cancer early. If you qualify, you may receive regular monitoring that could help find liver cancer sooner, when treatment is more likely to work.
Oxford, OxfordshireAges 18–100 - NCT04673955Recruiting
Real-world treatment study for metastatic bowel cancer with BRAF mutation
This real-world study looks at how doctors’ standard treatment works for metastatic colorectal cancer that has a specific BRAF mutation (BRAF V600E). It focuses on patients who are already starting—or will soon start—encorafenib plus cetuximab, using routine care rather than extra trial treatment.
Braunau am Inn, Upper AustriaAges 18 years+ - NCT03747588Recruiting
Laparoscopic versus open surgery for pancreas cancer
This study compares two ways of doing pancreaticoduodenectomy (a major surgery to remove parts of the pancreas and nearby tissue): minimally invasive (often smaller incisions) versus open surgery. It may help clarify which approach works best when the cancer looks potentially removable.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05563922RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a plan to preserve the anus after rectal chemo-radiation
This Phase 2 study tests a “total neoadjuvant” (chemo plus radiation before the main treatment) plan to see if some people with low rectal cancer can keep their anus. It may help you avoid permanent colostomy if your cancer responds well and you meet the study rules.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04280822RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy plus chemo versus chemo alone before surgery
This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding immunotherapy to chemotherapy before surgery works better than chemotherapy alone for resectable esophageal cancer. The goal is to improve outcomes after tumor shrinkage before the operation.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–75 - NCT05608213RecruitingPhase 3
Lenvatinib plus radiation seeds vs lenvatinib alone for liver cancer
This Phase 3 trial compares lenvatinib plus implanted radiation seeds versus lenvatinib alone in people with liver cancer that no longer responds to TACE. It aims to improve how long patients can control the cancer inside the liver.

Propofol anesthesia vs sevoflurane for liver tumor surgery
This study compares two types of general anesthesia—propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia versus sevoflurane inhaled anesthesia—during planned surgery to remove liver tumors. The goal is to see whether the anesthesia choice affects long-term outcomes after partial liver removal for hepatocellular carcinoma.
Kaohsiung CityAges 20–80 - NCT05476432RecruitingPhase 3
One-day versus two-day chemotherapy for unresectable liver cancer
This study compares two schedules of chemotherapy to treat liver cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. It aims to see whether the shorter schedule works about as well, with similar safety.
Foshan, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05652192RecruitingPhase 2
SBRT radiation plus chemotherapy and immunotherapy for metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests whether adding targeted radiation (SBRT) to chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug can help people with metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer live longer and control tumors. It may help by combining local tumor treatment with whole-body immune support.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT05236972RecruitingPhase 3
PD-1 antibody after colon cancer surgery for dMMR stage III
This phase 3 trial studies a PD-1 antibody medicine given after surgery to help prevent stage III colon cancer from coming back. It is specifically for people whose tumor is mismatch repair–defective (dMMR) or MSI-H, which may make the cancer more responsive to immune-based treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 3,124 recruiting carcinoma 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 carcinoma 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 carcinoma 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.
