- NCT07567196Recruiting
PET imaging to guide surgery for aggressive brain tumors
This trial tests whether using a special PET scan (a type of imaging that shows tumor activity) during brain tumor surgery helps doctors remove more of the tumor safely. You would have a high-grade glioma (an aggressive brain cancer) and be scheduled for surgery.
Torino, TurinAges 18 years+ - NCT07560865RecruitingPhase 1
New Cell Therapy for Recurring Brain Cancer
This study tests FT536, a new cell-based treatment, for people with a specific type of brain cancer (WHO Grade 4 astrocytoma) that has come back after standard treatment. The trial combines the new therapy with surgery to see if it can help stop the cancer from growing further.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18–75 - NCT07552467Recruiting
PET Imaging Scan for Detecting Cancer Using New Radioactive Tracer
This study tests a new type of imaging scan (PET/CT or PET/MR) that uses a radioactive tracer to help doctors better detect and diagnose various cancers. The scan targets a specific protein found in tumors, which may help identify cancer more accurately than standard imaging.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06740955Recruiting
Shorter radiation course for newly diagnosed glioblastoma
This trial tests a shorter, more intense course of radiation therapy (hypofractionated radiotherapy) for people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma who have had surgery. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and works well for treating the tumor.
Changchun, JilinAges 18–70 - NCT07544992RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T Cells for Recurrent High-Grade Brain Tumors
This trial tests genetically engineered immune cells (CAR T cells) injected directly into the brain to treat recurring or worsening high-grade gliomas. The cells are designed to recognize and attack tumor cells that have specific markers (EGFR and IL13Rα2).
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07476794RecruitingPhase 2
Daily temozolomide for elderly patients with newly diagnosed brain cancer
This trial tests a daily chemo drug (temozolomide) in patients aged 65 or older with a specific type of aggressive brain cancer that has a certain genetic marker. It aims to see if this daily schedule works well after initial radiation and chemo.
Toronto, OntarioAges 65 years+ - NCT07468136RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Retifanlimab with or without DFMO for progressive high-grade gliomas
This study tests a combination of two drugs—retifanlimab (an immunotherapy that helps your immune system fight cancer) and DFMO (a medicine that may stop tumor growth)—in people with high-grade brain tumors that are growing. Participants will receive these treatments before and after their planned surgery.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06710249RecruitingPhase 2
Testing Salovum and SPC Flakes for Brain Tumor Swelling
This trial tests whether two special food products (Salovum and SPC Flakes) can help reduce brain swelling caused by tumors. If you have a brain tumor with swelling and are already on steroids, you may be able to join.
LundAges 18–79 - NCT07459101Recruiting
MR-guided radiation therapy for high-grade brain tumors
This study tests a new way to deliver radiation therapy for a type of aggressive brain tumor called glioblastoma or grade 4 astrocytoma. Patients get MRI scans during each treatment so the radiation beam can be adjusted precisely, aiming to improve outcomes.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07439172RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy before radiation for newly diagnosed brain tumors
This trial tests giving a chemotherapy drug called temozolomide before radiation therapy to people with a newly diagnosed high-grade brain tumor. The goal is to see if this approach can help control the tumor better.
Camden, New JerseyAges 18–80 - NCT07426848Recruiting
Occupational therapy group for brain tumor patients
This study tests a group-based occupational therapy program to help people with primary brain tumors who are undergoing chemotherapy or other anti-cancer treatments. The goal is to improve daily activities and quality of life.
Dublin, BeaumontAges 18 years+ - NCT07410676RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Donor NK cells with IL-15 and pembrolizumab for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy (natural killer cells) made from a donor, combined with low-dose IL-15 (a protein that helps these cells work) and sometimes with pembrolizumab (Keytruda), for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT07413796Recruiting
Comparing skin closure methods in brain tumor surgery
This study compares two ways to close the skin after brain tumor surgery: a continuous stitch under the skin versus separate stitches through the skin. The goal is to see which method leads to better healing and appearance.
Warsaw, Masovian VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT07410494RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized donor cell therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a personalized cell therapy (CAR-NK) using donor immune cells that are engineered to find and attack one or two markers on advanced solid tumors. It may be an option for people whose tumors have these specific markers and have exhausted other treatments.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 8–85 - NCT07411690Recruiting
Spinal fluid leak after brain tumor surgery
This trial checks for spinal fluid leaks after surgery to remove brain tumors. If you are having a planned first-time surgery for a tumor in the upper part of the brain, you may be eligible.
WarsawAges 18 years+ - NCT07391215RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Paxalisib for newly diagnosed glioblastoma after standard treatment
This trial tests a drug called paxalisib in people with a newly diagnosed aggressive brain tumor (glioblastoma) who have just finished standard radiation and chemotherapy. The goal is to see if adding paxalisib can help prevent the tumor from coming back by targeting a specific pathway in the cancer cells.
SuttonAges 16 years+ - NCT07384884Recruiting
Surgery and laser for glioblastoma on both sides
This study tests a treatment for glioblastoma that affects both sides of the brain. It combines surgery to remove as much tumor as possible with a laser treatment (LITT) to destroy the smaller tumor on the other side.
LondonAges 18–80 - NCT05231655Recruiting
Study testing fresh tumor tissue from cancer surgery or biopsy
This study collects fresh samples of tumor tissue during procedures like surgery, biopsy, or TURBT to test a cancer therapy outside the body. It may help researchers learn which treatments work better for different solid cancers.
Sheffield, South YorkshireAges 16 years+ - NCT07285044RecruitingPhase 2
Home cancer treatment program for Florida panhandle residents
This study tests whether people with certain cancers can safely receive their regular intravenous treatments at home instead of coming to the clinic. It aims to make treatment more convenient and improve satisfaction, especially for those living in the Florida Panhandle.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07268053RecruitingEarly Phase 1
B7-H3 drug for recurrent brain tumor or brain metastases
This trial tests a drug called GSK5764227 (a B7-H3 targeted antibody-drug conjugate) in people whose glioblastoma has come back after standard treatment, or who have brain metastases that need surgery. The goal is to see if the drug can help shrink or control the tumor.

A study of targeted radiation for PSMA-positive gliomas
This early-phase trial tests a radioactive drug called 177Lu-PSMA-617 for people with certain types of brain tumors (gliomas) that have a specific marker (PSMA). The drug targets and delivers radiation to the tumor cells. It may be an option if standard treatments have been completed.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06687681RecruitingPhase 2

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for glioblastoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 315 recruiting glioblastoma 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 glioblastoma 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 glioblastoma 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.
