Recruiting studies
- NCT06951646RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized treatment for advanced lung cancer with long response to first-line therapy
This trial tests a combination of ivonescimab and docetaxel for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who have had a long response (11-15 months without the cancer getting worse) to first-line immunotherapy. The goal is to see if adjusting treatment based on ctDNA-MRD levels can improve outcomes.
ChangshaAges 18–75 - NCT03816345RecruitingPhase 1
Nivolumab for advanced cancer with autoimmune conditions
This Phase 1 study tests nivolumab, an immunotherapy “anti-cancer accelerator,” in people with advanced cancer who also have an autoimmune disorder. It aims to see if nivolumab can be given safely and whether it may help shrink or control cancer.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05893940Recruiting
Gentle physical stimulation during blood cancer transplant
This trial tests whether a low-intensity mechanical (physical) stimulation is safe and helpful for people with certain blood cancers who are about to have a transplant. It may affect how you do during or after treatment, and participation is voluntary with informed consent.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05727163RecruitingPhase 2
Liver-directed chemotherapy versus standard chemotherapy for RAS-mutated CRC
This Phase 2 study tests whether delivering chemotherapy directly into the liver (with an IV medicine added, depending on the group) works better than standard chemotherapy given through a vein. It is for people whose colorectal cancer has spread to the liver but can’t be removed by surgery yet.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06778382RecruitingPhase 2
Delaying treatment after destroying lung spots from colorectal cancer
This trial tests if it's safe to wait before starting full-body therapy after treating a small number of lung tumors (5 or fewer) in people whose colorectal cancer had been gone for at least 6 months. You would first get local treatments like surgery or radiation to destroy the lung spots, then delay additional cancer drugs to see how you do.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT06519591RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo for stomach cancer with abdominal spread
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (given through a vein and a pill) plus a chemotherapy infusion directly into your belly for stomach cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen. It specifically looks at a marker called Claudin 18.2 to see if this treatment works better for people with that marker.
Shanghai, Huangpu DistrictAges 18 years+ - NCT06126276RecruitingPhase 2
Testing neratinib with or without palbociclib for HER2+ solid tumors
This trial tests two targeted drugs—neratinib alone or with palbociclib—for people with HER2-positive solid tumors (other than breast cancer) that have returned or not gone away. The goal is to see if blocking HER2 and CDK4/6 can shrink or slow the tumor.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05392699RecruitingPhase 1
Testing ABOD2011 for advanced solid tumors after standard treatment
This Phase 1 trial tests a new medicine (ABOD2011) in people with advanced solid tumors that have come back or spread after standard treatment. It may help by shrinking tumors and allows researchers to study the tumor by giving medicine directly into it and taking a biopsy.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06427798RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Radioactive drug for previously treated gut or adrenal tumors
This trial tests a new radioactive drug, [212Pb]VMT-alpha-NET, that targets a receptor found on some tumor cells. It is for people with certain gut or adrenal gland tumors that have already been treated with a similar therapy but are still growing.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT02579967RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell transplant for primary immune system disorders
This study tests whether an allogeneic stem cell (bone marrow) transplant can correct an inherited immune problem in people with severe primary immunodeficiencies. It may help reduce life-threatening infections and improve quality of life, depending on your overall health and donor match.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 4–75 - NCT06483048RecruitingPhase 1
MUC1-targeted T cells for relapsed ovarian cancer
This trial tests a new treatment using your own immune cells, modified to target a protein called MUC1 on ovarian cancer cells. It is for people with ovarian cancer that has come back or is resistant to standard treatments.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05112601RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab plus or minus ipilimumab for dMMR endometrial cancer
This Phase 2 study tests the medicines nivolumab (with or without ipilimumab) in people with recurrent endometrial cancer that has “dMMR” (a specific tumor DNA repair defect). It aims to see whether this immune-based treatment can shrink tumors or help them stop growing.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06349044Recruiting
Radiation and immunotherapy with or without probiotics for advanced digestive cancers
This trial tests if adding a probiotic (Lactobacillus rhamnosus M9) to standard radiation and immunotherapy can help people with advanced digestive system cancers. It aims to see if the combination is more effective and safer than the standard approach alone.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06013423RecruitingPhase 2
Cord blood transplant with chemo and radiation for high-risk blood cancers
This trial tests a cord blood transplant after a reduced-intensity chemotherapy and radiation regimen for patients with high-risk blood cancers like leukemia, lymphoma, or MDS. The goal is to see if this approach can help destroy cancer cells and restore healthy blood cells.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 6 months–65 years

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for central nervous system cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 110 recruiting central nervous system 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 central nervous system 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 central nervous system 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.
