It aims to see whether the drugs can shrink tumors and improve outcomes, while carefully checking safety and eligibility.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05957016RecruitingPhase 2
New treatment before and during rectal radiation with chemo
This Phase 2 study tests a treatment plan given before surgery (neoadjuvant) along with radiation and chemotherapy (concurrent chemoradiotherapy) for locally advanced rectal cancer. It may help shrink the cancer before the next steps of care and improve control of the disease.

Exercise program for breast cancer after surgery
This study tests an exercise intervention for people with early-to-mid stage breast cancer soon after curative breast surgery (and after chemo and/or radiation if you had it). It may help improve recovery, physical strength, and overall wellbeing by making exercise safer and more structured during this period.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - NCT05965531RecruitingPhase 2
TAS-102 plus radiation before surgery for rectal cancer
This trial studies whether adding TAS-102 (a chemotherapy medicine) to radiation given before treatment improves outcomes for certain locally advanced rectal cancers. It may help by trying to shrink the tumor before the next steps of care.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT05965856RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two antibody medicines for advanced bladder and other cancers
This Phase 2 trial studies whether the study medicines SI-B003 alone or together with BL-B01D1 plus SI-B003 can shrink or control advanced cancers that have not responded to standard treatment (or where standard treatment isn’t possible). It also looks at safety and how well the treatment works in people whose cancer can be measured on scans.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05970497RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
KB707 trial for advanced solid tumors after other treatments
This early-stage trial tests KB707 in people with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have not responded well to standard treatments. If you qualify, you may receive KB707 to see how well it can shrink tumors or control the disease.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05980715RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing immunotherapy to radiation after successful treatment for head and neck cancer
This trial looks at whether giving an immunotherapy drug (a PD-1 inhibitor) after surgery is better than giving radiation therapy for people with advanced head and neck cancer who had a complete response to chemotherapy and immunotherapy before surgery. The goal is to prevent the cancer from coming back.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT05984485RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery vs chemo before surgery for low-risk rectal cancer
This trial compares two approaches for low-risk locally advanced rectal cancer: going straight to surgery (TME) versus receiving chemotherapy before surgery. The goal is to see if upfront surgery works just as well, sparing patients from chemotherapy side effects.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05988814RecruitingPhase 2
FOLFIRINOX3 for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a stronger version of FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy for people with pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread to other parts of the body. It aims to see if the new dosing schedule works better and is safe.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT05994365Recruiting
Testing anlotinib for advanced thyroid cancer that resists radioactive iodine
This trial tests a targeted therapy pill (anlotinib) for people with advanced thyroid cancer that stopped responding to radioactive iodine. It may slow tumor growth or shrink tumors.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06002789RecruitingPhase 2
PD-1 immunotherapy with or without chemo before surgery for colorectal cancer
This trial tests a medicine called PD-1 (a type of immunotherapy that helps your immune system fight cancer), sometimes with chemotherapy, before surgery for a certain type of colorectal cancer. It is for people whose tumors have a specific DNA repair problem (dMMR or MSI-H) and whose cancer has not spread to distant organs.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for locally advanced?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 981 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.
