Recruiting studies
- NCT05977998RecruitingPhase 2
Paclitaxel given during surgery for stomach cancer spread to the belly
This trial studies whether adding paclitaxel chemotherapy around the time of surgery can improve outcomes for people with stomach or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma that has spread to the lining of the abdomen (peritoneum). It targets cancers confirmed by testing of belly fluid or by laparoscopy/laparotomy, and may help by treating cancer cells right at the time of surgery.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06218433Recruiting
Bladder cancer screening for Lynch syndrome with a urine test
This study is testing a urine test to see if it can find bladder cancer early in people with Lynch syndrome. If you have Lynch syndrome and are between 50 and 75, this screening could help catch cancer before it causes symptoms.
VancouverAges 50–75 - NCT07696832Recruiting
Ivonescimab as first treatment for advanced lung cancer
This trial studies ivonescimab alone as a first treatment for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that tests positive for PD-L1 and doesn't have certain gene changes. The goal is to see if it works and is safe in everyday medical practice.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06523374Recruiting
Studying quality of life and cancer risk in Barrett's esophagus
This study looks at how Barrett's esophagus affects your quality of life and fear of cancer. It uses new tests to better predict who might develop esophageal cancer, so you can get the right care sooner.
Edegem, AntwerpenAges 18 years+ - NCT06574087Recruiting
Screening for anal cell changes in women with HPV related gynecological disease
This study looks at how often anal cell changes happen in women who have HPV-related gynecological problems. The goal is to find the best way to screen for these changes early.
Gdynia, Pomeranian VoivodeshipAges Any age - NCT06824909Recruiting
Faster pancreas tumor diagnosis with AI
This trial uses a new, faster method to diagnose solid pancreatic tumors during an endoscopic ultrasound procedure. It combines rapid staining of cells with artificial intelligence to give a quick and accurate diagnosis.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06911528Recruiting
New cell-probing technology for early breast cancer surgery
This trial tests a new technology that helps doctors examine cells during surgery for early-stage breast cancer. It may help make the sentinel lymph node biopsy more accurate.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07148154Recruiting
Non-invasive test for endometrial cancer screening
This study tests a simple, non-invasive method to detect endometrial cancer in women after menopause who have abnormal bleeding. It aims to find cancer early in those at higher risk, such as women with certain genetic conditions or risk factors.
L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, BarcelonaAges 40 years+ - NCT07260344Recruiting
Testing two new ways to find early mouth precancer
This study compares two non-invasive methods to detect precancerous sores in the mouth. It aims to find a simpler way to catch early changes before they become cancer.
Taipei, TaipeiAges 30–80 - NCT01050504Recruiting
Donate blood and tissue to study recurrent or metastatic cancers
This study collects and studies blood and, when possible, small tissue samples from people with prostate or bladder/urothelial cancer that has come back or spread. The goal is to better understand these cancers and support future research that may lead to better care.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT00900419Recruiting
Check biomarkers during bronchoscopy in breathing and throat pre-cancer
This study looks at “biomarkers” (measurable signals in samples) taken during bronchoscopy or related procedures in people with severe airway pre-cancer or certain lung/throat cancers, and in healthy volunteers. The goal is to better understand what these biomarkers mean and how they might help with diagnosis, staging, or monitoring.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 21–90 - NCT01137643Recruiting
Sharing blood and tissue samples for blood cancer research
This trial collects tissue, blood, and other body fluid samples from people with blood-related cancers. The goal is to help researchers study these diseases by building a source of samples for future testing.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–120 - NCT02250352Recruiting
Biopsy study to collect breast tumor tissue samples
This study takes small tissue samples (core biopsies) from people with known or suspected breast cancer and stores them for research. It may help scientists better understand breast tumors, especially when the cancer has spread.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02280161Recruiting
Study of inherited cancer gene samples in blood and saliva
This study collects blood and saliva to look for inherited gene changes in people who have been diagnosed with cancer. It may help researchers understand what genetic risks could be involved, which could guide future cancer care.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02474160Recruiting
Banking cancer tissue and blood for future research
This study collects and stores leftover or newly taken samples of tissue and blood from people with cancer. The goal is to build a research library that can help investigators study cancer and develop better tests or treatments.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 2 months+ - NCT02688517Recruiting
Tests tumor genomics using blood and stored tissue
This study looks at the genetic information (DNA) from your blood and from saved tumor tissue to better understand certain cancers, especially rare cancers with a poor outlook. It may help researchers learn why these cancers behave the way they do and guide future treatments.
Brick, New JerseyAges 1 year+ - NCT07488325Recruiting
Using AI to better understand unclear thyroid biopsy results
This study uses artificial intelligence (AI) to look at ultrasound images and cell samples from thyroid nodules that had an unclear biopsy result. The goal is to see if AI can better tell which nodules are cancerous, helping avoid unnecessary surgery in the future.
Guangzhou, GuangzhouAges 18–80 - NCT07572396RecruitingPhase 2
HPV treatment with vaginal suppositories for mild cervical changes
This study tests a new vaginal medication (Dysplasix) to treat mild cervical cell changes caused by high-risk HPV. The goal is to see if this treatment can help your body clear the virus and prevent these changes from getting worse.
Shatin, New TerritoriesAges 18–65 - NCT06829043Enrolling by invitation
PET scan for uncertain thyroid nodules
This study uses a special PET scan (18F-FDG PET/CT) to get a clearer picture of thyroid nodules with uncertain biopsy results. The goal is to help doctors decide whether surgery is needed.
Bologna, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT04755517Enrolling by invitation
Cervical screening for women unprotected by HPV herd effect
This study checks how well cervical screening works for certain unvaccinated women depending on whether they are protected by “herd effect” from HPV vaccination in the community. It may help improve screening plans for women who may be at higher risk.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cytology?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 44 recruiting cytology 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 cytology 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 cytology 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.
