Personalized follow-up after limited surgery or radiation for colon cancer
This Phase 2 study tests the best way to choose and then follow treatment when colorectal cancer has spread only to a small number of spots. You may be eligible if your doctors can remove or precisely treat the spots and there’s no sign of additional spread on scans.
Aarhus NAges 18 years+ - NCT07756437Recruiting
Blood test for detecting bladder cancer DNA
This study is testing a simple blood test that looks for cancer DNA in your blood. The goal is to see if it can accurately detect muscle-invasive bladder cancer or upper tract urothelial cancer.
Ghent, East FlandersAges 18 years+ - NCT05940311Recruiting
Blood test for melanoma with BRAF V600E mutation
This trial studies a very sensitive blood test to detect melanoma-related genetic changes in people with BRAF V600E. It may help track the disease more closely and guide care in advanced or high-risk situations.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT04846933Recruiting
Testing extra scans and data to guide ovarian cancer treatment
This trial collects information from people with suspected ovarian cancer and uses it to improve diagnosis and help predict which treatments may work. It may also look for targeted options, based on scan and medical data results.
TurkuAges 18 years+ - NCT06762405RecruitingPhase 3
Testing dostarlimab with short radiation for MSI rectal cancer
This trial tests a new approach: giving the immunotherapy drug dostarlimab along with a short course of radiation before surgery, with the goal of avoiding surgery in many patients. It is for people with a specific type of rectal cancer (MSI-H or dMMR) that has not spread to other organs.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT06257017RecruitingPhase 2
Using DNA tests to guide chemotherapy after bladder cancer surgery
This trial checks if a DNA blood test can help decide who needs extra chemo after bladder or upper urinary tract cancer surgery. It tests whether watching for cancer DNA in the blood can match patients to the right treatment.
Hong Kong, Hong KongAges 18–70 - NCT07222436Recruiting
Blood test for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial studies a blood test that looks for tumor DNA in men with high-risk or advanced prostate cancer. It may help doctors understand the cancer better and guide treatment decisions.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07211178Recruiting
Tracking cancer DNA in blood to detect early return of breast cancer
This study tracks tiny traces of cancer DNA in the blood over time to see if it can find early signs of breast cancer coming back. It looks at different types of breast cancer and at different points in a patient's treatment journey.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–99 - NCT07183319RecruitingPhase 2
ctDNA test in advanced bladder cancer
This trial studies how a blood test that looks for tumor DNA (ctDNA) can help guide treatment in people with advanced bladder cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. It aims to see if the test results can help doctors choose the best therapy.
Oklahoma City, OklahomaAges 18 years+ - NCT06307938Recruiting
Liquid biopsy test for colorectal cancer before colonoscopy
This trial tests a simple blood test (liquid biopsy) to find cancer signals in the DNA of people being called for a colonoscopy. If you are scheduled for a colonoscopy, your blood sample could help doctors detect colorectal cancer earlier and plan better treatment.
LevangerAges 18 years+ - NCT07142226Recruiting
Liquid biopsy for advanced bile duct cancer
This trial uses a blood test called ctDNA to look at the genetic makeup of your cancer. It aims to learn more about bile duct cancer and may help guide your treatment choices.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 19 years+ - NCT07084558Recruiting
Testing treatment guided by tumor DNA for hormone positive breast cancer
This trial tests whether using a blood test (circulating tumor DNA) can help guide chemo and hormone therapy for early-stage, hormone receptor positive and HER2 negative breast cancer. The goal is to tailor treatment to your tumor's response, potentially reducing unnecessary side effects.
Vienna, AustriaAges 18–100 - NCT06358222Recruiting
Lung cancer trial testing blood test and PET scan for spread
This trial studies if a blood test that looks for tumor DNA combined with a PET-CT scan can better predict if lung cancer has spread to lymph nodes. It may help guide treatment decisions for people with non-small cell lung cancer that hasn't been treated yet.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT07069595RecruitingPhase 2
Blood test for breast cancer survivors at risk of recurrence
This trial uses a simple blood test to look for leftover cancer DNA in people with triple-negative breast cancer who still have disease after chemotherapy and surgery. It aims to catch any early signs of the cancer coming back.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for circulating tumor dna?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 88 recruiting circulating tumor dna 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 circulating tumor dna 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 circulating tumor dna 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.
