Recruiting studies
- NCT07034391RecruitingPhase 2
PD-1 inhibitor with denosumab and chemo for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 inhibitor), a bone-strengthening drug (denosumab), and chemotherapy for people with advanced or spread non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer that does not have certain genetic changes.

Sequential therapy for advanced liver cancer that may become removable
This trial tests a sequence of chemotherapy (FOLFOX), immunotherapy (durvalumab), targeted therapy (bevacizumab), and focused radiation to shrink liver tumors that are not removable now, with the goal of making them operable later.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07008742Recruiting
Blood and tissue collection study for certain lung cancers
This study collects blood and tissue samples from people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) either before or after treatment. It aims to help researchers learn more about how tumors respond, especially in cancers with specific genetic changes or after certain pre-surgery therapies.
London, United KingdomAges 18 years+ - NCT06954077RecruitingPhase 1
BL-M09D1 for advanced gastrointestinal and other solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, BL-M09D1, for people with advanced or metastatic gastrointestinal or other solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink tumors and how safe it is.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06235203RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing treatment timing in recurrent nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial compares giving chemotherapy and immunotherapy before surgery (neoadjuvant) versus after surgery (adjuvant) for patients whose nasopharyngeal cancer has returned locally. It aims to find which approach works better to control the cancer.

A better ultrasound marker for lymph nodes in breast cancer
This trial tests a new ultrasound marker to help surgeons find and remove cancer-positive lymph nodes during breast cancer surgery. The marker makes the node easier to see on ultrasound so it can be taken out accurately.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for locally advanced?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 971 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.
