Recruiting studies
- NCT07398599Recruiting
Double-dose targeted therapy plus chemo for lung cancer spread to brain lining
This trial tests a stronger dose of an EGFR-targeted drug combined with bevacizumab and chemotherapy into the spinal fluid for patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain and is no longer responding to standard treatment.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–99 - NCT06431685RecruitingPhase 1
Brain radiation, immunotherapy, and chemo for lung cancer spread
This trial tests a combination of low-dose radiation to the whole brain, immunotherapy, and chemotherapy given through a lumbar puncture. It is for people with lung cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain and has not responded to standard treatments.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT06500481RecruitingPhase 3
Proton vs standard radiation for cancer spread to brain/spine lining
This trial compares a newer type of radiation (proton therapy) to standard radiation for people whose breast or lung cancer has spread to the lining of the brain and spinal cord. It aims to see if proton therapy can better control the disease while causing fewer side effects.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07744529RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Combination treatment for lung cancer spread to the lining of the brain
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs for people with a specific type of lung cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain and spinal cord. The treatment aims to target the cancer cells and may help improve symptoms and survival.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06058988RecruitingPhase 2
T-DXd for people with brain cancer
This trial tests a drug called Trastuzumab Deruxtecan (T-DXd) for people with brain tumors that are either glioblastoma or have spread from other cancers. Doctors will see if T-DXd can shrink tumors or slow their growth, and they will collect tumor tissue during surgery or biopsy to study how the drug works.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06399926Recruiting
Pemetrexed via Ommaya for lung cancer in brain lining
This study tests whether a drug called pemetrexed, given directly into the fluid around your brain through a small implanted device, is safe and effective for treating lung cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain. It is for people whose cancer has a specific genetic change (EGFR, ALK, or ROS1) and who have already tried standard targeted pills that no longer control their disease.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for leptomeningeal metastasis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 30 recruiting leptomeningeal metastasis 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 leptomeningeal metastasis 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 leptomeningeal metastasis 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.
