Treating newly diagnosed central malignant germ cell tumors with teniposide and cisplatin
This trial tests a combination of two chemotherapy drugs—teniposide and cisplatin—for people who have just been diagnosed with a malignant germ cell tumor in the brain. The goal is to see if this treatment is safe and effective.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 5 years+ - NCT07218913RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a drug to reduce ear damage from chemo in testicular cancer
This trial tests whether adding Pedmark (sodium thiosulfate) to cisplatin chemotherapy can protect hearing in men with stage II or III testicular germ cell tumors. It aims to reduce the risk of drug-related ear damage while still treating the cancer.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02582697RecruitingPhase 3
Faster vs standard chemotherapy for spreading germ cell tumors
This Phase 3 trial compares a faster chemotherapy approach versus the standard schedule for people with intermediate- or poor-risk metastatic germ cell tumors. The goal is to see which schedule works better and is safer enough to use as initial treatment.
New York, New YorkAges 11–50 - 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 - 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+ - 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.
Clermont-FerrandAges 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+ - 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 - NCT06683846RecruitingPhase 2
Ivonescimab for advanced rare tumors: a safety & early-efficacy study
This trial tests a drug called ivonescimab in people with advanced, rare tumor types that have spread (stage IV). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and whether it can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05124964Recruiting
Quality of life study for newly diagnosed brain germ cell tumors
This study looks at how life quality changes in children and young adults after a new diagnosis of a brain germ cell tumor. It may help doctors understand which supports improve day-to-day well-being.
BeijingAges 3–30 - NCT05108298Recruiting
Study to improve cancer survey reporting for young adults
This study focuses on collecting better self-reported information (from questionnaires) from young adults with cancer. It may help improve how future cancer trials understand symptoms and quality-of-life needs.
Fairbanks, AlaskaAges 18–39 - NCT05502224Recruiting

This study tests a multidisciplinary program to help reduce ongoing fatigue after acute cancer treatment. It is for younger adults who still feel at least moderate fatigue about a month after finishing treatment.
BrusselsAges 18–39 - NCT05588700Recruiting
Exercise program to reduce long-term cancer fatigue
This trial studies whether a structured physical activity program can reduce ongoing (long-term) fatigue in men with metastatic testicular cancer. It likely helps by improving fitness and energy during and after first-line chemotherapy.
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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for germ cell tumor?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 52 recruiting germ cell tumor 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 tumor 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 tumor 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.
