Recruiting studies
- NCT02099734Recruiting
DNA registry for germ cell and testicular tumors
This study collects DNA and medical information to better understand germ cell and testicular tumors and possible inherited genetic causes. It may help researchers sort out how genetic changes relate to these cancers, even if you’re not receiving a new drug.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07662018Recruiting
Study of stem cell transplant after chemo for children with germ cell tumors
This study looks at how well a stem cell transplant works after a specific combination of chemotherapy drugs (gemcitabine, docetaxel, melphalan, and carboplatin) in children and young adults up to age 21 whose germ cell tumors have come back or not responded to treatment. It may help doctors understand who benefits most from this approach.
Houston, TexasAges 21 years+ - NCT06041503RecruitingPhase 2
Treating rare bladder and testicular cancers with targeted therapy
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab) for people with certain rare cancers of the urinary tract or testicles. The goal is to see if these treatments can shrink tumors or stop them from growing.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT07306559RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests different doses of a new drug (BI 3820768) in people with advanced solid tumors, specifically germ cell tumors, endometrial cancer, or ovarian cancer. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how well it works.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05092451RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CD70-targeting NK cell therapy for blood cancer relapse
This study tests an immune therapy made from cord blood “NK cells” that are engineered to attack cells with a marker called CD70. It’s given after chemotherapy that reduces your blood and immune system, aiming to treat relapse or refractory (not responding) blood cancers.
Houston, TexasAges 12–80 - NCT05969860RecruitingPhase 2
Home cancer treatment vs clinic treatment for advanced cancer
This Phase 2 trial compares giving certain standard cancer infusions at home versus in a clinic. It may help people avoid clinic visits while still receiving the same cancer treatment safely.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05281471RecruitingPhase 3
Tested drug for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer with bevacizumab
This Phase 3 trial tests a treatment made of an investigational gene-based drug plus standard “platinum” chemotherapy and bevacizumab, compared with standard chemotherapy and bevacizumab. It’s for ovarian/fallopian tube/primary peritoneal cancers that have not responded to platinum chemotherapy or came back quickly.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07628634RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing a Low-Methionine Diet in Solid Tumor Patients
This early-stage study explores whether eating a diet low in methionine (a natural amino acid found in protein) might help people with advanced solid tumors. Researchers will track how this dietary change affects blood levels and may improve treatment outcomes alongside standard cancer care.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05302583Recruiting
Aromatherapy inhaler for stress during stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether using a lavender or peppermint aromatherapy inhaler can reduce distress (stress or discomfort) for adults during stem cell transplant care. It’s for people who are getting chemotherapy before the transplant and who do not have allergies to those essential oils.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05857969RecruitingPhase 1
Testing cancer drug response on removed tumor tissue
This early study uses tumor tissue (or bone marrow from blood cancers) and performs lab tests to see which cancer drugs may work better for each person. It also collects genetic information from blood or a saliva swab to help understand why cancers respond differently.
Miami, FloridaAges 1 day–21 years - NCT05259605Recruiting
Study uses brain tumor tissue and scans to track treatment outcomes
This is an observational study that collects and compares information from patients with primary brain tumors and their treatment results. It uses stored tumor tissue and brain scans to better understand outcomes using updated tumor classification methods.
InnsbruckAges 18 years+ - NCT04185038RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T therapy through a catheter for pediatric brain tumors
This Phase 1 trial tests a personalized immune-cell treatment (CAR T) delivered directly in the brain-area space using a catheter. It may help children and young adults with hard-to-treat (recurrent or refractory) diffuse midline brain tumors like DIPG/DMG when standard options aren’t working.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 1–26 - NCT03911388RecruitingPhase 1
HSV G207 for Children with Recurrent Cerebellar Brain Tumors
This trial is testing a virus called HSV G207, which is injected directly into the tumor, to treat children and young adults with a type of brain tumor in the cerebellum that has come back or not responded to standard treatments.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 3–22 - NCT06937866RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Zanzalintinib and etoposide after high-dose chemo for germ cell tumors
This trial tests a maintenance therapy combining zanzalintinib and etoposide after you've completed high-dose chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant for germ cell cancer. The goal is to see if this drug combination helps prevent the cancer from coming back.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT06427941RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BGB-B2033 drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, BGB-B2033, alone or with other treatments, for people with advanced liver, stomach, lung, or germ cell cancers that have not responded to standard therapy. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and works against these tumors.
Goodyear, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05231122RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab and bevacizumab for recurrent ovarian cancer
This trial studies whether adding pembrolizumab to bevacizumab (and sometimes an anti-CD40 drug) can help control recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. It also looks at whether the treatment can shrink tumors and keep them from growing for longer.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05460000RecruitingPhase 2
Niraparib after early ovarian cancer chemo—short vs long
This trial tests whether taking niraparib (a maintenance anti-cancer pill) for a shorter time after 3 cycles of platinum chemotherapy works as well as taking it after 6 cycles. It is for people with advanced ovarian cancer that has been fully removed (no visible tumor) and is “HRD-positive,” meaning it has certain DNA repair weaknesses.
InnsbruckAges 18 years+ - NCT06646627RecruitingPhase 1
B7-H3 car t cells for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer
This trial tests a new treatment where your own immune cells are modified to attack ovarian cancer cells that have stopped responding to platinum chemotherapy. It's for people with recurrent ovarian cancer that hasn't gotten better with standard treatments.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for germ cell cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 42 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.
