Safety study of an investigational drug for advanced cancer with the CLDN6 marker
This trial tests an investigational drug for people with advanced solid tumors, especially ovarian, fallopian tube, peritoneal, endometrial, or germ cell cancers that have a specific marker called CLDN6. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and tolerable.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 15 years+ - NCT06133543Recruiting
Robotic sentinel node biopsy for testicular cancer
This trial uses a robot and a special dye (ICG) to find and remove the first lymph node that might contain cancer cells in men with testicular cancer. It aims to reduce unnecessary lymph node removal while still detecting spread.
DüsseldorfAges 18–99 - NCT05874063RecruitingPhase 3
Preventing blood clots during first chemotherapy for germ cell tumors
This Phase 3 study tests whether giving enoxaparin (a blood thinner) can prevent dangerous blood clots in people with advanced germ cell tumors starting their first chemotherapy. It is especially focused on people who are at higher risk of clots.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT05670938Recruiting
Follow-up after testicular cancer surgery and chemotherapy
This study looks at how people should be followed after treatment for testicular cancer (surgery and, for some, chemotherapy). It may help improve follow-up plans while keeping an eye out for cancer coming back.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT04914026Recruiting
MicroRNA test for testicular cancer diagnosis
This study looks at tiny genetic signals called microRNAs to see if they can help identify or track testicular cancer. It may help doctors recognize testicular cancer more accurately and decide what to do next.
BergenAges 18–70 - NCT04684368RecruitingPhase 2
New treatment for children and young adults with a brain tumor
This trial tests a new treatment approach for a rare brain tumor called NGGCT. It aims to see if a different way of treating the tumor can be effective and safe for children and young adults.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 3–29 - NCT03067181RecruitingPhase 3
Active surveillance and chemotherapy for germ cell tumors
This study looks at how to manage germ cell tumors in children and young adults using careful monitoring for some patients and chemotherapy for others. It aims to see whether these approaches can control the cancer while avoiding unnecessary treatment when possible.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT02429687RecruitingPhase 3
Testing two chemo regimens for ovarian germ cell tumors
This Phase 3 trial compares two different chemotherapy approaches for women with ovarian sex cord–stromal germ cell tumors. It aims to see which treatment works better and is safer for newly diagnosed stage IIA to IVB disease after surgery.
Jinan, ShandongAges 14–65 - NCT07614620Recruiting
Hypnosis to reduce anxiety and chemo side effects in young cancer patients
This study tests whether hypnosis (a relaxed, focused mental state) can help young people with sarcoma, germ cell tumors, or breast cancer manage anxiety and reduce side effects from chemotherapy. The trial takes place at Institut Bergonié in France.
BordeauxAges 15–49 - NCT07847190RecruitingPhase 2
Adding paclitaxel to standard chemotherapy for tough testicular cancer
This trial tests if adding a drug called paclitaxel to the standard chemotherapy combination (BEP) can improve outcomes for people with aggressive testicular cancer. It is for those whose tumor markers did not drop as fast as expected after the first round of chemo.
MoscowAges 16 years+ - NCT07463508Recruiting
Bile acids as markers for testicular germ cell tumors
This study looks at whether levels of bile acids (substances made by your liver) can help doctors understand how testicular germ cell tumors grow and how they respond to treatment. It may help improve future care for people with this type of cancer.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for germ cell cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 45 recruiting germ cell cancer 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 germ cell cancer 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 germ cell cancer 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.
