Recruiting studies
- NCT06778408RecruitingPhase 2

This trial tests a new combination of two oral drugs (abemaciclib and cabozantinib) for people with advanced kidney cancer (clear cell type) who have already tried at least two other treatments, including an immunotherapy and a targeted therapy, but their cancer kept growing. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow the cancer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06841172RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation vs treatment switch for limited liver cancer growth
This trial tests whether giving radiation to a few growing cancer spots while continuing your current treatment works better than switching to a new treatment right away. It's for people whose advanced liver cancer has only barely started to progress on their first therapy.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT06850103RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo, radiation, and immunotherapy for advanced rectal cancer that has spread a little
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy, radiation, and an immunotherapy drug (serplulimab) for people with rectal cancer that has spread to just a few spots in the body (no more than 5 tumors in up to 2 locations). It aims to see if this approach is safe and effective.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06860971RecruitingPhase 3
AL2846 capsule vs placebo for advanced thyroid cancer
This study tests a new oral capsule (AL2846) against a placebo in people with advanced thyroid cancer that no longer responds to radioactive iodine. The goal is to see if AL2846 can slow or stop cancer growth.

Trial of zanzalintinib with immunotherapy for advanced kidney cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination for people with advanced clear cell kidney cancer that has gotten worse after initial immunotherapy treatment. The goal is to see if adding zanzalintinib to another immunotherapy can help control the cancer.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06883409Recruiting
Laparoscopic surgery for advanced ovarian cancer after chemo
This trial tests if laparoscopic surgery after 3-4 cycles of chemotherapy can help people with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer. It's for those whose tumors have shrunk enough after chemo and who are healthy enough for surgery.
México, TlalpanAges 18–80 - NCT06887348Recruiting
Long-term safety study for prior RP1, RP2, or RP3 patients
This study checks the long-term safety of patients who have already received RP1, RP2, or RP3 treatment in a previous study. It helps doctors understand any side effects that may appear over time.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06892860RecruitingPhase 2
Comparing shorter vs longer chemo before immunotherapy for bladder cancer
This trial is testing whether 3 cycles of chemotherapy are as effective as 6 cycles before starting maintenance immunotherapy (avelumab) for people with advanced bladder cancer. The goal is to see if a shorter chemo course can reduce side effects while still controlling the cancer.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06893887Recruiting
Personalized treatment for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a personalized treatment plan for people whose advanced liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) has progressed after initial targeted and immune therapy. It aims to find a next-step option tailored to your specific situation.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06905015Recruiting
Comparing two methods to reduce blood loss during open liver surgery
This trial tests whether using stroke volume variation (SVV) is better than central venous pressure (CVP) to guide fluid management and reduce bleeding during open liver surgery. It aims to find a safer way to manage fluids during the operation.
Chiang Mai, ChiangmaiAges 20–70 - NCT06905197RecruitingPhase 1
Study of DZD6008 for advanced NSCLC with EGFR mutations
This trial tests an oral drug called DZD6008 for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has certain EGFR mutations. It may be an option for those who have tried other EGFR treatments or are new to treatment.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06906237Recruiting
Breast reconstruction study for early-stage breast cancer
This study looks at how well special breast-conserving surgery techniques work for women with early-stage breast cancer. It aims to see if these techniques provide good results and satisfaction over time.
PadovaAges 18 years+ - NCT06912087RecruitingPhase 1
Finding the right dose of a new combo for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new three-drug combination for advanced head and neck cancer that cannot be cured by local treatments. It aims to find the best dose of a targeted therapy called Zanzalintinib when given with two standard immunotherapy and targeted drugs.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06940518RecruitingPhase 2
Ivonescimab for advanced clear cell kidney cancer

Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06940739RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
IOV-3001 and lifileucel for advanced melanoma
This trial tests a new combination treatment, IOV-3001 and lifileucel, for people with advanced melanoma that has not responded to standard immunotherapy and cannot be surgically removed. It aims to see if this cellular therapy is safe and effective.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18–70 - NCT06951646RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized treatment for advanced lung cancer with long response to first-line therapy
This trial tests a combination of ivonescimab and docetaxel for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who have had a long response (11-15 months without the cancer getting worse) to first-line immunotherapy. The goal is to see if adjusting treatment based on ctDNA-MRD levels can improve outcomes.
ChangshaAges 18–75 - NCT06956001RecruitingPhase 3
Testing firmanertinib vs chemo for first-line lung cancer with specific EGFR mutations
This trial compares a new targeted therapy pill (firmanertinib) to standard chemotherapy in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer whose tumors have a specific EGFR mutation (PACC or L861Q). If you haven't had treatment for advanced disease and your cancer matches these mutations, this study may offer a more convenient oral option.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06961357RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CD40L-Enhanced TIL therapy for advanced melanoma
This trial tests a new way to treat advanced melanoma by taking immune cells from your tumor, enhancing them in the lab to fight better, and giving them back to you. It is for people whose melanoma has spread or cannot be removed, and who have already tried standard treatments.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06963905RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a combination drug for triple-negative breast cancer
This trial is testing a combination of three drugs—sacituzumab govitecan, nivolumab, and relatlimab—for people with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer that has progressed after at least one prior therapy.

New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT06971211RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation and drug combo for advanced prostate cancer
This trial combines radiation therapy with two drugs (fluzopanib and abiraterone acetate) to treat men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer that hasn't been treated yet. The goal is to see if this triple approach helps slow the cancer's growth.

Radiation or surgery plus hormone therapy for prostate cancer that has spread
This trial tests whether giving intense hormone therapy along with either radiation or surgery can help men with prostate cancer that has spread to a limited number of spots (10 or fewer) but not to organs like the liver or lungs. The goal is to treat both the main tumor and the visible metastatic spots more aggressively.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT07008287Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for colorectal cancer (locally advanced or metastatic)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 5,580 recruiting colorectal cancer (locally advanced or metastatic) 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 colorectal cancer (locally advanced or metastatic) 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 colorectal cancer (locally advanced or metastatic) 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.
