Recruiting studies in California
- NCT06422806RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy plus chemo for aggressive sarcoma
This trial compares a combination of immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) plus chemotherapy (doxorubicin) versus chemotherapy alone for people with aggressive, poorly differentiated sarcomas that have spread or cannot be removed. The goal is to see if adding immunotherapy helps shrink tumors or slow their growth better than chemotherapy alone.
Dublin, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05711615RecruitingPhase 1
Low-dose doxorubicin plus peposertib for advanced sarcoma
This Phase 1 trial tests a low dose of a common chemotherapy (liposomal doxorubicin) together with an anti-cancer drug called peposertib. It’s for people with advanced sarcoma that can’t be cured, aiming to find a safe dosing plan and see how well the treatment might work.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06975293RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
STC-15 with toripalimab for advanced cancers and sarcomas
This trial tests a new drug called STC-15, either alone or with another drug (toripalimab), for people with certain advanced cancers or sarcomas that have progressed after prior treatment. The goal is to see if this combination or single drug can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04031677RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery with or without chemotherapy for high-risk retroperitoneal sarcoma
This trial studies whether adding chemotherapy before surgery helps people with high-risk retroperitoneal (abdominal-area) leiomyosarcoma or liposarcoma. The goal is to improve outcomes while comparing surgery alone versus surgery plus neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06789172RecruitingPhase 1
New drug OKN4395 with or without pembrolizumab for solid tumors
This trial tests a new oral drug called OKN4395, which targets a COX2-related immune pathway, alone or with the immunotherapy pembrolizumab, in people with advanced solid tumors. It may be an option if you have certain types of cancer that have stopped responding to other treatments.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06541262RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Silmitasertib plus chemo for relapsed solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, silmitasertib, combined with standard chemotherapy for children and young adults with cancers that have come back or not responded to treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or stop them from growing.

What taking part in a liposarcoma study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there liposarcoma clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 6 recruiting liposarcoma studies with a site in California, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a liposarcoma study in California?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in California to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in California, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a liposarcoma trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New liposarcoma studies open in California regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
