Recruiting studies
- NCT06058377RecruitingPhase 3
Adding immunotherapy to chemo for stage II-III breast cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug durvalumab to standard chemotherapy works better than chemo alone for people with hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative breast cancer that is stage II or III and has a high-risk genetic score (MammaPrint High Risk 2).

This study tests adding Avastin (bevacizumab) to the standard combination of chemotherapy (carboplatin and paclitaxel) plus immunotherapy (Keytruda) for advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer with a specific genetic makeup (pMMR and TP53 mutation). The goal is to see if adding Avastin helps shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04405115Recruiting
Help for older adults to get better cancer aftercare
This study aims to improve “survivorship care plans,” which are follow-up instructions after chemotherapy, to help older adults feel supported after cancer treatment. You may be able to participate if you’re 65+ and recently finished chemotherapy with the goal of cure and have a plan scheduled with an oncology navigator.
Clovis, CaliforniaAges 65 years+ - NCT07751302Recruiting
Follow-up vs. chemo after surgery for early stomach cancer
This trial compares two approaches after surgery for early-stage stomach or GEJ cancer: close monitoring (follow-up) vs. adjuvant chemotherapy (chemo given after surgery). It aims to see if follow-up alone is as good as chemo for patients with this stage, potentially avoiding chemo side effects.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18 years+ - NCT07751055RecruitingPhase 2

This trial tests a new drug called Calderasib combined with targeted therapy or chemotherapy for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has a specific genetic change (KRAS G12C mutation). It may be an option for those who have not had prior treatment for advanced disease.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07281417RecruitingPhase 2
Testing adding cemiplimab to chemo before surgery for sinus cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug cemiplimab to standard chemotherapy before surgery helps treat sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma. The goal is to see if this combination reduces tumors more effectively than chemotherapy alone.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05092451RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CD70-targeting NK cell therapy for blood cancer relapse
This study tests an immune therapy made from cord blood “NK cells” that are engineered to attack cells with a marker called CD70. It’s given after chemotherapy that reduces your blood and immune system, aiming to treat relapse or refractory (not responding) blood cancers.
Houston, TexasAges 12–80 - NCT06342284Recruiting
Collecting health data during radiation for lung cancer
This trial asks people getting radiation therapy for lung cancer to use a wearable device and smartphone app to track their activity and symptoms. The goal is to learn how this treatment affects patients day-to-day.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06314334RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy plus radiation for early-stage NK/T-cell lymphoma
This trial tests whether combining chemotherapy with radiation therapy can work well for people with early-stage NK/T-cell lymphoma that started in the nose or throat. It aims to find a more effective treatment approach with fewer side effects.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT06246630Recruiting
Personalized drug testing for advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors
This trial uses a lab-grown model of your tumor (called an organoid) to test which drugs might work best for you. It is for people with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors who cannot have surgery.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05864274Recruiting
Cognitive training for people on chemotherapy
This trial studies a phone or tablet brain-training program to help with “cancer-related cognitive impairment,” or thinking and memory problems that can happen during chemotherapy. If you’re newly diagnosed with certain gynecologic cancers and are receiving chemotherapy, this may help you see whether the training improves cognitive symptoms.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–90 - NCT04615013RecruitingPhase 1
NBTXR3 with chemoradiation for esophageal cancer treatment
This early-phase study tests adding NBTXR3 (a special treatment given into the tumor) to standard chemotherapy and radiation for esophageal cancer. The goal is to see if it can improve cancer control and to learn about safety and dosing.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07750951RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy before surgery for advanced rectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs and chemotherapy given before surgery for a type of rectal cancer that has a specific genetic marker (MSI-H/dMMR). The goal is to shrink the tumor and improve the chances of successful surgery.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18 years+ - NCT07613151Recruiting
Lobular breast cancer with low hormone receptors
This study looks at a rare type of breast cancer called invasive lobular carcinoma that has low or no hormone receptors. The goal is to learn more about how this cancer behaves, which may help improve future treatments.

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.
