Recruiting studies
- NCT03740256RecruitingPhase 1
HER2-targeted oncolytic virus plus custom immune cells for solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests a treatment plan that combines a virus designed to attack cancer with your own custom immune cells that target HER2. It aims to shrink advanced HER2-positive solid tumors (and make future options safer/more effective).

Givastomig for advanced solid cancers, including gastric and pancreas
This Phase 1 trial tests how safe and effective givastomig (TJ033721) is for advanced or metastatic solid tumors. It may help people whose cancer has grown despite standard treatment, or—if in the combination parts—specific cancers that meet certain lab test and tumor-marker requirements.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07341737RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
SL-28 for advanced solid tumors that haven’t responded to treatment
This trial tests a new drug, SL-28, for people with advanced solid tumors that haven’t responded to or cannot be treated with standard therapies. It aims to find a safe dose and see if the drug can help shrink or slow the growth of your cancer.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT07493668RecruitingPhase 2
Fostrox plus Lenvatinib for advanced liver cancer after immunotherapy
This trial tests whether adding the drug Fostrox to the standard drug Lenvatinib works better than Lenvatinib alone for people with advanced liver cancer that has worsened after initial immunotherapy treatment. It is for those who cannot have surgery and have not had more than one prior cancer treatment.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 19 years+ - NCT05940896RecruitingPhase 1
HER2-targeted drug with radiation for non-surgical solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests a HER2-targeted antibody drug (RC48-ADC) given with radiation in people with locally advanced solid tumors that cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to find a safe way to use the treatment and see how well it works in cancers that have HER2 protein on their cells.

- Are there clinical trials for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 154 recruiting locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma 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 locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma 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 locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma 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.
