Shorter chemo plus immunotherapy for advanced nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests a shorter course of chemotherapy combined with an immunotherapy drug (camrelizumab) for people with advanced nasopharyngeal cancer that hasn't spread to distant organs. The goal is to see if this approach works well while reducing treatment side effects.
Xiamen, FujianAges 18–65 - NCT06858709Recruiting

Testing glutathione with immunotherapy and chemo for lung cancer
This trial tests adding a supplement called glutathione to the usual immunotherapy (anti-PD-1) plus chemotherapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has stopped responding to first treatment. It aims to see if this combination works better at shrinking tumors.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT06902467Recruiting
Chemotherapy directly into the abdomen after surgery for advanced ovarian cancer
This trial tests giving chemotherapy directly into the abdomen (intraperitoneal) after optimal surgery for advanced ovarian cancer. It aims to see if this approach is safe and effective for women who have already received 3-4 cycles of chemotherapy before surgery.
MurciaAges 18–70 - NCT06958432RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Short-course radiation plus chemo and immunotherapy for rectal cancer
This trial tests a treatment plan that uses a short course of radiation to the lymph nodes-sparing area, followed by chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 inhibitor) for people with a specific type of mid or low rectal cancer (pMMR/MSS). The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes without needing extensive surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06977893RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo and immunotherapy for HR+ breast cancer before surgery
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug toripalimab to chemotherapy before surgery helps women with a certain type of breast cancer (HR+, HER2-). It aims to see if this combination works better than chemotherapy alone.

- 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.
