Recruiting studies
- NCT07664176RecruitingPhase 1
Focused ultrasound plus nivolumab for children with brain tumors
This trial tests if combining focused ultrasound (which opens the blood-brain barrier) with the immunotherapy drug nivolumab can treat relapsed or progressive brainstem gliomas and other high-grade brain tumors in children and young adults.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 3–25 - NCT05259605Recruiting
Study uses brain tumor tissue and scans to track treatment outcomes
This is an observational study that collects and compares information from patients with primary brain tumors and their treatment results. It uses stored tumor tissue and brain scans to better understand outcomes using updated tumor classification methods.
InnsbruckAges 18 years+ - NCT07148050RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T-cell therapy for children with solid tumors
This trial tests a new kind of immunotherapy for children and teens with solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The therapy uses specially engineered T cells (CAR T cells) that target a protein called GPC3 found on many tumor cells, and it includes extra signals (IL-15 and IL-21) to help the T cells work better.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 1–26 - NCT04308330RecruitingPhase 1
Vorinostat plus chemotherapy for advanced tumors in brain
This Phase 1 trial studies how safe and tolerable vorinostat is when combined with chemotherapy for cancers that have come back or are hard to treat, including tumors in the brain or spinal cord. It may help doctors find a better way to treat advanced solid tumors and CNS (brain/spinal cord) cancers.
Valhalla, New YorkAges 1–30 - NCT07087002RecruitingPhase 1
GPC2-CAR T cells for children and young adults with relapsed medulloblastoma
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy called GPC2-CAR T cells for children and young adults whose medulloblastoma or related brain tumor has come back or not responded to standard treatment. The goal is to see if these specially designed immune cells can find and attack the tumor.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 1–30 - NCT05278208RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Lutathera for high-grade brain tumors that returned or got worse
This trial tests if Lutathera, a radioactive drug that targets certain tumors, can help children and young adults with high-grade brain tumors or meningiomas that have come back or are growing. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and works.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 4–39 - NCT06831461Recruiting
Proton vs photon radiation for brain tumors
This study compares two types of radiation therapy for adults with primary brain tumors that have a good outlook (expected survival longer than 5 years). You will receive either standard photon radiation or the more targeted proton radiation, to see if one works better or causes fewer side effects.
MumbaiAges 18–70 - NCT05697874Recruiting
Rare brain tumor registry for children and young adults
This study is a global registry that collects information about people with rare or hard-to-classify brain tumors (including certain genetic tumor changes). It helps researchers learn more about these tumors and may guide future studies and treatments.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Up to 45 years - NCT07447076RecruitingPhase 2
New treatments for recurrent ATRT brain tumor
This trial tests new treatments for children and young adults whose ATRT brain tumor has come back or grown. It aims to find if these therapies can help control the tumor.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 1–39 - NCT07122882Enrolling by invitation
Genetic study of drug-resistant lung cancer
This trial looks at the genetic changes in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has stopped responding to targeted therapy pills. It aims to understand why the cancer became resistant, which may help find better treatments.
TaoyuanAges 18 years+ - NCT07408375Recruiting
Adjusting breathing machine for tumor ablation
This study tests a new way to adjust the breathing machine (ventilator) during a tumor-destroying procedure called thermal ablation. The goal is to find the safest pressure settings to protect your lungs while you are sedated.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT05313191Recruiting
Proton therapy for tumors after prior radiation
This study looks at whether a type of proton beam treatment can be given safely and effectively to tumors that have already been treated with radiation before. It may help people whose tumors came back or persisted after earlier radiation, using a specific proton method called pencil beam scanning.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05727605Recruiting
Thinking changes after radiotherapy for brain and skull-base tumors
This trial studies how radiotherapy affects memory and thinking in adults with certain brain or skull-base tumors. It may help doctors understand who is most likely to have thinking changes and how to monitor or support patients.
GhentAges 18 years+ - NCT06253871RecruitingPhase 1
Study of IAM1363 for HER2 Cancers
This trial tests a new oral drug called IAM1363 for people with HER2-altered cancers that have stopped responding to previous treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how well it works against these cancers.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07390539RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cells targeting B7-H3 for brain tumors
This trial tests a new type of immune therapy (CAR T cells) that targets a protein called B7-H3 found on some brain tumors. It is for children and young adults with certain brain or spinal cord tumors that have come back after standard treatment, and aims to see if the treatment is safe and effective.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 2–21 - NCT07476781Recruiting
Liquid biopsy study for solid tumours and brain tumours
This study collects samples of spinal fluid and blood from people with solid tumours that have spread to the brain or spine, or who have primary brain tumours. The goal is see if these samples can help doctors detect and monitor these cancers more easily.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06773481RecruitingPhase 1
BC008-1A injection for recurrent grade 4 glioma
This trial tests a new injection called BC008-1A for people with a grade 4 glioma (a type of brain cancer) that has come back after standard treatment. The goal is to see if the drug can help control the tumor and improve outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07688356RecruitingPhase 2
Belvarafenib for BRAF-altered brain tumors
This trial tests a drug called Belvarafenib for people with brain tumors that have a BRAF gene change (mutation). The drug targets this specific change to try to shrink or control the tumor. It is for patients whose brain tumor has come back or hasn't responded to other treatments.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT07167329RecruitingPhase 2
Belzutifan for VHL syndrome: a real-world study
This trial tests the drug belzutifan (a pill taken by mouth) in people with VHL syndrome who have kidney or other VHL-related tumors that are growing or can be measured. The study looks at how well belzutifan works in real-world conditions and whether certain genetic factors affect how the drug works.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cns tumor?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 43 recruiting cns tumor 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 cns tumor 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 cns tumor 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.
