Chemo and immunotherapy before surgery for rectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug (a PD-1 inhibitor) given before surgery for locally advanced rectal cancer. The goal is to see if this approach can improve outcomes compared to standard treatment.

Optimizing local treatments for ALK-positive lung cancer on brigatinib
This trial is for people with advanced ALK-positive lung cancer who are already taking the targeted therapy brigatinib and have a few remaining spots of cancer. It tests whether adding local treatments (like surgery, focused radiation, or ablation) to the remaining spots can improve outcomes.
BrestAges 18 years+ - NCT06618287RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing BMS-986507 for advanced lung and breast cancers
This study tests a new drug called BMS-986507, given in different combinations, for people with advanced solid tumors (lung cancer or breast cancer that has spread). It looks at safety, how the drug works in the body, and if it helps shrink tumors.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06596915RecruitingPhase 1
BA1302 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, BA1302, for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The study aims to see if BA1302 is safe and effective.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06574620Recruiting
Studying tumor DNA and proteins in pancreatic cancer
This study is looking at genetic material and proteins from pancreatic tumors to understand how the cancer responds to treatment. It aims to help doctors choose the best therapies for patients with certain types of pancreatic cancer that can be removed surgically or that have not spread to other organs.

Second-line therapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy with either bevacizumab or cetuximab as a second-line treatment for advanced colorectal cancer. It aims to find which option works better for patients whose first treatment failed.

- Are there clinical trials for locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 4,282 recruiting locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer 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 or metastatic breast cancer 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 or metastatic breast cancer 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.
