CABAAges 18 years+ - NCT06987734RecruitingPhase 2
Sugemalimab plus chemo before and after lung cancer surgery
This trial tests if adding the immunotherapy drug sugemalimab to standard chemotherapy before and after surgery can help people with stage II-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to see if this combination reduces the chance of cancer coming back.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07001748RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing abdominal chemo plus standard chemo for stomach cancer spread
This trial tests adding the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel directly into the abdomen (intraperitoneal) along with standard IV chemotherapy for people with stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen. The goal is to see if this combination helps control the cancer better than standard treatment alone.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07009717Recruiting
Big toe strength and chemo nerve damage
This study looks at whether the strength of your big toe is related to nerve damage from chemotherapy. It involves a one-time test of your toe strength and some questionnaires. It may help researchers better understand how chemo affects your nerves.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–90 - NCT07014202RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation therapy after chemo-immunotherapy for lung cancer
This trial tests whether giving focused radiation to remaining spots of lung cancer (after standard treatment) can help prevent cancer from growing back. It may be an option if you have had 4-6 cycles of chemo plus immunotherapy and still have a few active spots.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chemotherapy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,994 recruiting chemotherapy 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 chemotherapy 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 chemotherapy 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.
