Avoiding brain radiation when chemo or other drugs work
This trial tests whether some people with brain metastases from solid tumors can safely skip radiation if their cancer drugs (like targeted therapy, immunotherapy, or certain chemotherapies) shrink the brain tumors. You will get MRI scans to see if the drugs are working.
Burlington, VermontAges 18 years+ - NCT06976190RecruitingPhase 3
MRG003 plus pucotenlimab vs chemo for advanced nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests whether combining an experimental antibody-drug conjugate (MRG003) with an immunotherapy (pucotenlimab) works better than standard chemotherapy for people with nasopharyngeal cancer that has come back or spread. If you have tried at least one prior treatment and are generally in good health, you may be able to join.

- 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.
