Timing of radiation after surgery for head and neck cancer
This study tests whether starting radiation therapy more than 6 weeks (but within 16 weeks) after surgery is safe and effective for people with certain high-risk head and neck cancers. It could help those who had to delay radiation for recovery or other reasons.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06594445RecruitingPhase 1
GTB-3650 TriKE for high-risk MDS and relapsed AML
This trial tests a new immunotherapy called GTB-3650 TriKE for people with high-risk MDS or AML that has come back or not responded to treatment. It aims to boost your immune system to fight the cancer.

Study of glofitamab with venetoclax for high-risk mantle cell lymphoma
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (glofitamab plus venetoclax, with or without zanubrutinib) for people with mantle cell lymphoma that is either newly diagnosed with high risk features, or has come back or not responded to earlier treatments. The goal is to see if these targeted therapies can improve outcomes.
BrugesAges 18–79 - NCT06561087RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab injection for high-risk mouth lesions
This trial tests whether injecting nivolumab directly into high-risk pre-cancerous mouth spots can prevent them from becoming cancer. You randomly receive either the drug or a placebo, and the study monitors how the spots change over time.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06558981RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation therapy after thyroid surgery for high-risk cancer
This trial is testing whether giving radiation therapy after thyroid surgery can help destroy any leftover cancer cells in people with high-risk differentiated thyroid cancer. It is for those who had surgery but some cancer was still left behind.
ShanghaiAges 14–80 - NCT06541067RecruitingPhase 2
Posaconazole to prevent fungal infections after stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether the antifungal drug posaconazole can prevent serious fungal infections in people who are at high risk after a stem cell transplant. If you qualify, you would take posaconazole during your recovery.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 922 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.
