Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,077 recruiting locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors 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 (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors 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 (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors 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.
