Recruiting studies
- NCT06630234RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for advanced GIST with specific gene changes
This trial tests a new targeted therapy drug, DCC-3009, for people with advanced GIST that has a specific gene mutation (KIT or PDGFRA). It's for those who have already tried other targeted treatments and need a new option.
Scottsdate, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05366816RecruitingPhase 2
Blood test–guided sunitinib or regorafenib for GIST
This study uses a blood test (ctDNA) to look for specific tumor DNA changes, then guides treatment with sunitinib or regorafenib in people with GIST that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see whether this ctDNA-guided approach improves outcomes compared with standard decision-making.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06326346RecruitingPhase 2
Oral paclitaxel for advanced GIST after other treatments fail
This trial tests an oral form of paclitaxel (a chemotherapy drug) for people with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) that has stopped responding to or caused side effects with imatinib, sunitinib, and regorafenib. It aims to see if this treatment can help when other options have run out.
Seoul, SongpaguAges 20 years+ - NCT01416714Recruiting
Tissue sample collection during cancer surgery or biopsy
This study is collecting tissue samples from people with certain cancers while they have surgery or a biopsy. It may help researchers learn more about these cancers and improve future diagnosis and treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT05905887RecruitingPhase 2
Rivoceranib and paclitaxel for advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor
This Phase 2 trial tests whether combining rivoceranib with paclitaxel can shrink or control advanced metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) after standard medicines have stopped working. It may help people whose GIST has progressed despite prior treatments like imatinib, sunitinib, and regorafenib.
Seoul, SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT05661643RecruitingPhase 2
Temozolomide for GIST tumors with SDH deficiency
This trial tests how well temozolomide works and how safe it is for people with GIST (a type of stomach/intestine tumor) that is SDH-deficient and has no KIT or PDGFRα mutations. It may help by targeting tumor DNA repair weakness seen in this SDH-deficient subtype.
Seoul, SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT05493215RecruitingPhase 2
Imatinib drug-monitoring for GIST with specific gene changes
This Phase 2 trial studies how to adjust and monitor imatinib (a targeted cancer medicine) based on drug levels in the blood. It may help people with GIST that has certain KIT or PDGFRA mutations but not the PDGFRA D842V type.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT05500391RecruitingPhase 2
Testing whether remote nurse monitoring works like in-person checks
This Phase 2 study compares two ways of checking your cancer follow-up: a doctor or nurse visits in person versus remote monitoring by phone and imaging. The goal is to see whether remote monitoring can safely replace or match in-person care for certain low-risk cancers and after surgery.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT01048281Recruiting
Study of stomach and esophagus cancer samples
This study looks at stomach (gastric) and esophagus cancer, using clinical information and tissue samples. It may help researchers better understand these cancers and improve future care.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05208047RecruitingPhase 3
CGT9486 plus sunitinib for advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors
This trial tests whether adding a new drug called CGT9486 to sunitinib (a standard cancer drug) works better than sunitinib alone for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) that have grown or spread. You may qualify if your GIST stopped responding to or caused problems with imatinib, an earlier treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05152472RecruitingPhase 2
Imatinib plus atezolizumab versus imatinib alone for advanced GIST
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding atezolizumab (an immune medicine) to imatinib works better than imatinib by itself in people with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) that can’t be fully removed and have progressed after standard treatments. It may help by improving how well tumors respond and how long disease stays under control.
Lyon, RhôneAges 18 years+ - NCT04924075RecruitingPhase 2
Belzutifan for cancers linked to VHL or HIF-2α changes
This Phase 2 study tests belzutifan (MK-6482) to treat certain advanced cancers caused by specific gene or disease changes, including VHL-related tumors and HIF-2α related tumors. It may help shrink tumors or slow their growth in people whose cancer matches these genetic or disease patterns.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT04557969Recruiting
Surgery and tumor testing in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST)
This study looks at how surgery for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) works, and collects tumor samples to study them under the microscope and by DNA testing. Your results may help researchers better predict tumor behavior and guide future treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 6 years+ - NCT03594422RecruitingPhase 1
Testing an oral drug for GIST or other solid tumors
This Phase 1 trial tests HQP1351, a new oral cancer drug, in people with advanced GIST or other solid tumors that have not responded to prior treatment. It’s mainly designed to check safety and how the drug works in the body, which may lead to better options for tumors that have progressed.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 12 years+ - NCT07618377RecruitingPhase 1
New Drug for Gastrointestinal Tumors After Multiple Treatments
This study tests a new drug called DCC-2618 for patients with GIST (a rare stomach/intestinal cancer) who have already tried at least three other treatments. The goal is to see if this drug can slow or shrink tumors in patients whose cancer has stopped responding to standard medications.
Kashiwa, ChibaAges 18 years+ - NCT06805825RecruitingPhase 1
Study of NN3201 for advanced cancers with c-Kit
This trial tests a new drug, NN3201, that targets a protein called c-Kit found on some cancer cells. It may be an option for people with certain advanced solid tumors, including GIST, small cell lung cancer, or other c-Kit-positive cancers, who have already tried standard treatments or cannot take them.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT04181970Recruiting
Study of sarcoma care quality across Europe and Latin America
This observational study looks at information from people with sarcoma to understand how care is delivered across different centers. It does not test a new treatment, but may help improve future care and planning.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for gastrointestinal stromal tumor (gist)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 41 recruiting gastrointestinal stromal tumor (gist) 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 gastrointestinal stromal tumor (gist) 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 gastrointestinal stromal tumor (gist) 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.
