Neoadjuvant therapy with trastuzumab rezetecan and toripalimab for HR+/HER2-low breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (trastuzumab rezetecan and toripalimab) given before surgery to treat a specific type of breast cancer that is hormone-receptor-positive and HER2-low. It aims to see if this treatment can improve outcomes for patients who have not had prior cancer treatment.
HarbinAges 18–70 - NCT01935778RecruitingPhase 3
Extra chemo after stomach cancer surgery: compare two drug plans
This Phase 3 trial tests which combination of chemotherapy works better after surgery for stage IIIB/IV stomach or stomach–esophagus junction adenocarcinoma. Participants get randomized to one of two chemotherapy plans to see which helps people live longer and/or prevents cancer from coming back.
SeoulAges 20–75 - NCT02754115Recruiting
Audit of surgery with heated chemo for belly tumors
This study is an audit (a review of care) of patients who undergo cytoreductive surgery plus heated chemotherapy placed in the abdomen. It helps doctors understand how this treatment is done and what outcomes and safety it has.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 18–70 - NCT02304913Recruiting
Acupuncture to reduce bad taste during chemotherapy
This trial studies whether hypoglossal acupuncture can reduce dysgeusia, or a persistently bad/altered taste, in people who are receiving chemotherapy. If you qualify, it may help improve taste-related eating and quality of life during treatment.
Essen, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT03161522RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo alone versus with radiation or surgery for limited spread
This study tests whether adding radiation or surgery to chemotherapy can improve outcomes for people whose esophageal or stomach cancer has spread to only a few places. If your cancer is “oligometastatic” (up to 3 spots), the trial helps doctors see which approach gives the best control.
Houston, TexasAges 18–79 - NCT03357120Recruiting
Using blood DNA to assess response after breast cancer chemotherapy
This study checks whether a blood test that looks for “tumor DNA” (circulating tumor DNA) can help evaluate how well neoadjuvant chemotherapy worked for breast cancer. It may help doctors better understand treatment response after surgery.

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.
