Blood test to tell apart two types of liver cancer
This study uses a blood test (called a liquid biopsy) to help doctors tell the difference between two common types of liver cancer: hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). If you have been diagnosed with one of these cancers and have a blood sample taken before starting curative treatment, this study may help improve diagnosis and care.

Targeted radiation and chemo before donor stem cell transplant
This trial tests a new approach: giving a targeted radioactive antibody (attached to a drug that finds CD38 on cancer cells) along with low-dose chemotherapy and targeted radiation to the bone marrow before a donor stem cell transplant. The goal is to prepare the body for the transplant while killing remaining cancer cells more precisely.

Geriatric assessment for older adults with lung cancer getting chemotherapy and radiation
This trial tests whether a special geriatric assessment can help manage side effects for adults aged 60 and older with non-small cell lung cancer who are starting a new treatment plan that includes chemotherapy and radiation. It aims to improve quality of life and treatment outcomes.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 60 years+ - NCT06128070RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing GVHD after stem cell transplant for leukemia
This trial tests adding ruxolitinib to standard drugs (tacrolimus and methotrexate) to prevent graft-versus-host disease in children and young adults undergoing a stem cell transplant for acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. The goal is to lower the risk of GVHD and improve transplant outcomes.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 2–22 - NCT05363111RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a targeted radioactive drug for relapsed myeloma
This Phase 1 study tests a targeted radioactive medicine made from daratumumab plus a radioactive payload, aiming to treat multiple myeloma that has come back or doesn’t respond to treatment. It’s designed mainly to check safety and how the treatment works in people who have had several prior therapies.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04160429Recruiting
Biospecimen testing to measure chemicals during treatment
This trial collects small samples like blood, sweat, and saliva while you’re taking certain medicines. Researchers will analyze these samples to see if they can detect chemical levels, which may help improve monitoring for people with chronic or infection-related illnesses.

Music and connection for older adults
This trial uses music to help older adults in residential care feel more connected. Volunteers will attend music sessions to see if they improve mood and social bonds.
Winchester, MassachusettsAges 18–103 - NCT06059391RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine for stem cell donors to prevent CMV
This trial tests whether giving a CMV vaccine to stem cell donors can help protect recipients from CMV infection after transplant. It is for adults with specific blood cancers who are CMV-positive and have a matched related donor.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for hope?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 213 recruiting hope 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 hope 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 hope 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.
