Tagraxofusp plus low-intensity chemo for CD123+ AML
This trial tests a drug called tagraxofusp combined with a gentle chemotherapy regimen for people whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has come back or not responded to an initial venetoclax-based treatment. The study focuses on patients whose leukemia cells have a protein called CD123 on their surface.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06563869RecruitingPhase 3
Sintilimab with chemo and growth factor before esophageal cancer surgery
This trial tests whether giving the immunotherapy drug sintilimab together with standard chemotherapy and a growth factor injection before surgery can help people with a certain type of esophageal cancer (squamous cell carcinoma) that is still removable. The goal is to improve treatment outcomes before the operation.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT06566586RecruitingPhase 2
Study of TQB3702 plus immunochemotherapy for B-cell lymphoma
This trial tests a new tablet (TQB3702) combined with standard immune-and-chemo therapy for certain types of B-cell lymphoma that have come back or not responded to previous treatment. It aims to see if the combination is safe and effective.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06574698Recruiting
Adding Naxitamb to high-risk neuroblastoma treatment
This trial is for children with high-risk neuroblastoma, a type of nerve cell cancer. It tests adding a new medicine called Naxitamb to standard induction therapy to see if it works better. High-risk means the cancer is advanced or has certain aggressive features.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for chemotherapy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,001 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.
