CAR-NK cell therapy for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy called CAR-NK cells that target two proteins (MSLN and MUC1) often found on pancreatic cancer cells. It is for people whose cancer has spread or cannot be removed, and who have already tried at least one standard treatment.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07471776RecruitingPhase 2
Predicting ADC treatment response with PET scans in advanced breast cancer
This study uses special PET scans to see if a type of targeted therapy called an anti-TROP2 ADC will work well for your advanced breast cancer. The therapy is already part of your standard care; the scans help doctors understand how your tumor responds.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05205850RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
RC118 for solid cancers with Claudin 18.2 on tumor cells
This Phase 1/2 study tests RC118, a cancer medicine, in people with advanced or spread solid tumors that cannot be removed by surgery. It focuses on tumors that show a specific marker called Claudin 18.2, which may help the treatment work better for some patients.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for colorectal cancer (locally advanced or metastatic)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 5,515 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.
