This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug, serplulimab, for people with locally advanced cervical cancer. The goal is to see if it can help shrink or control the cancer before standard treatments.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06475261Recruiting
Measuring tissue oxygen during surgery for ovarian cancer
This study measures oxygen levels in tissues during surgery for ovarian cancer that includes heated chemotherapy inside the abdomen. The goal is to understand how oxygen changes during the procedure, which could help improve care.

Study of ATG-022 plus pembrolizumab for stomach or GEJ cancer
This trial tests a new drug combo (ATG-022 plus pembrolizumab, with or without chemo) for people with advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has a specific protein (CLDN 18.2) and is HER2-negative and PD-L1-positive. It may be an option if you have not had certain prior treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chemotherapy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,988 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.
