Recruiting studies
- NCT06092957RecruitingPhase 3
Reduced radiation after chemo-immunotherapy for high-risk nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests whether a lower dose of radiation, with or without additional chemo-immunotherapy, works as well as the standard full-dose chemoradiation for people with advanced nasopharyngeal cancer who had a complete response after initial chemo-immunotherapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06093061RecruitingPhase 2
Maintenance therapy for high-risk nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—tislelizumab (an immunotherapy that helps your immune system fight cancer) and capecitabine (a chemo pill taken daily)—as maintenance therapy after initial chemotherapy for high-risk nasopharyngeal cancer. The goal is to see if this approach can lower the chance of cancer coming back.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - NCT06096805Recruiting
Predicting fetal growth restriction in high-risk pregnancies
This study aims to better predict fetal growth restriction (when a baby doesn't grow as expected) in women who have certain risk factors. By joining, you may help doctors develop better screening tools for future pregnancies.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–45 - NCT06100237RecruitingPhase 2
Teclistamab and daratumumab for high-risk smoldering myeloma
This trial tests two immunotherapy drugs (teclistamab and daratumumab) for people with high-risk smoldering myeloma to see if the combination can stop or delay progression to active multiple myeloma. It's a new approach for those whose smoldering myeloma has a higher chance of becoming active.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06104592RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation before CAR T-cell therapy for high-risk large B-cell lymphoma
This trial tests if giving radiation to all visible tumor sites before standard CAR T-cell therapy can improve outcomes for people with high-risk large B-cell lymphoma. You may be eligible if you have at least one large tumor (5 cm or bigger) that can be targeted with radiation.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06111079RecruitingPhase 3
Stopping Aspirin in High-Risk Pregnant Women
This trial tests whether stopping aspirin use in high-risk pregnant women can be safe. It aims to find the best time to stop taking aspirin to prevent preeclampsia, a condition that causes high blood pressure during pregnancy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–45 - NCT06111898Recruiting
Understanding movement in infants at risk
This study looks at how the brain and body work together to control movement in infants who are at high risk for developmental issues. It may help find early signs of motor problems.
GenevaAges 8 months–1 year - NCT06122896RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Screening for pancreatic cancer in high-risk people
This trial uses MRI and endoscopic ultrasound to look for early signs of pancreatic cancer in people who have a high risk due to their genes or family history. Finding it early may lead to better treatment options.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06130995RecruitingPhase 1
Relugolix and enzalutamide for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests a combination of two oral drugs, relugolix and enzalutamide, in men with high-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread to distant parts of the body. The goal is to see if this treatment can help control the cancer before or alongside local therapies like surgery or radiation.
Oklahoma City, OklahomaAges 18 years+ - NCT06140966RecruitingPhase 2
Daratumumab and Carfilzomib combo for high-risk multiple myeloma
This trial tests a combination of the drugs daratumumab, carfilzomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone given before and after a stem cell transplant for people with ultra high-risk multiple myeloma. The goal is to see if this regimen is safe and more effective than standard treatments.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–70 - NCT06143969Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided clot-dissolving treatment for intermediate-high risk pulmonary embolism
This trial tests a treatment that uses ultrasound to guide a thin tube (catheter) to deliver clot-busting medicine directly into the blood clot in your lung. It may be an option for people whose clot is serious but not yet causing shock, and who have symptoms that started within the last two weeks.
Milan, ItaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT06151223Recruiting
Pancreatic cancer risk registry for high-risk individuals
This study is a registry for people at high risk for pancreatic cancer. Researchers will collect information over time to learn more about how to detect and prevent the disease.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06165419RecruitingPhase 2
High-dose radiation for spine metastases from solid tumors
This trial tests a new way of giving high-dose radiation to solid tumors that have spread to the spine. It is for people whose spine is stable, have not had prior treatment to that area, and have only minor weakness (if any).
Stony Brook, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06170710RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy after chemoradiation for high-risk head and neck cancer
This trial tests if adding immunotherapy after standard chemoradiation helps prevent cancer from returning in people with high-risk head and neck cancer. It is for those who have completed surgery and have certain high-risk features.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06183489RecruitingPhase 2
Elranatamab for high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma
This trial tests a new drug called Elranatamab for people with a high-risk form of smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM). The goal is to see if the drug can prevent or delay the progression to active multiple myeloma.
HelsinkiAges 18 years+ - NCT06207799RecruitingPhase 2
Drug combo before and after transplant for high-risk myeloma
This trial tests a two-step approach for people with newly diagnosed, high-risk multiple myeloma who are eligible for a stem cell transplant. You'll get a drug called elranatamab before transplant to 'purge' the cancer, and then after transplant, you'll get maintenance therapy guided by how well your cancer is controlled. The goal is to see if this reduces the chance of the cancer coming back.
Houston, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT06208462RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy before surgery for high-risk bile duct cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy directly into the liver artery, an immunotherapy drug, and a targeted therapy pill before surgery for a type of bile duct cancer that has a high chance of coming back. The goal is to see if this approach can improve outcomes for patients whose cancer is still removable but has certain high-risk features.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT06212323Recruiting
Monitoring high-risk smoldering myeloma over time
This trial watches people with a high-risk form of smoldering myeloma (an early, inactive stage of bone marrow cancer) to learn more about how it changes. It may help doctors know who needs treatment later.

Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06228599Recruiting
Targeted therapy for pancreatic cancer with high risk of return
This trial tests if personalized medicines, chosen based on the genetic profile of your tumor, can help prevent pancreatic cancer from coming back after surgery. It is for people who have had their pancreatic tumor removed but have features that suggest a higher chance of recurrence.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT06229041RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo and radiation with or without immunotherapy for high-risk rectal cancer
This trial tests if adding immunotherapy to standard chemotherapy and radiation before surgery helps shrink high-risk rectal cancer and prevent it from coming back. You may be a good fit if you have a specific type of advanced rectal cancer that hasn't spread to other parts of your body.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06240143RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Intradermal immunotherapy for high-risk stage II melanoma

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for high risk?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 923 recruiting high risk 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 high risk 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 high risk 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.
