This early-phase study tests two radioactive medicines that first help doctors see tumors and, in some parts of the study, treat them. It may help people with advanced, hard-to-remove cancers that have a specific tumor marker (CA IX).
MelbourneAges 18 years+ - NCT07755449RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted radiation for head and neck cancer after surgery
This trial tests a new way of giving radiation therapy only to the side of the neck that needs it, which may reduce side effects while still preventing cancer from coming back. It is for people who have had surgery for head and neck cancer and have not had the cancer spread to the lymph nodes.
L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06926868RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of a new drug versus chemotherapy for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a new investigational drug called izalontamab brengitecan against standard chemotherapy for people with advanced triple-negative breast cancer who cannot receive immunotherapy. The goal is to see if the new drug works better at shrinking or slowing the cancer.
Hot Springs, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT07100106RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of GDC-4198 alone or with giredestrant for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a new treatment (GDC-4198) alone or with another drug (giredestrant) compared to a standard combination (abemaciclib and giredestrant) for people with advanced hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has progressed after previous treatments.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06718621RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental drug called BL-M08D1 for people with solid tumors that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery and have stopped responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07751055RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy and radiation with immunotherapy before surgery for esophageal cancer
This trial tests whether adding two immunotherapy drugs to standard chemotherapy and radiation before surgery can help shrink esophageal cancer and improve outcomes. It is for people with a certain type of esophageal cancer that can be removed with surgery.

Study of drug combinations for stomach or esophagus cancer
This trial tests new combinations of drugs alongside standard chemotherapy for people with advanced stomach or esophagus cancer that has not been treated yet. It aims to see if these combinations can shrink tumors or slow down the cancer better than current options.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05424159Recruiting
Carbon ion radiation for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a type of radiation that uses carbon ions to treat pancreatic cancer that can’t be removed with surgery but has not spread to distant organs. It may help shrink or control the tumor while limiting radiation side effects to nearby organs.

- Are there clinical trials for locally advanced?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 978 recruiting locally advanced 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 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 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.
