Recruiting studies
- NCT06452485Recruiting
Re-irradiation with or without hyperthermia, or surgery only for recurrent breast cancer
This trial compares three treatment options for breast cancer that has come back in the chest or lymph nodes after previous radiation. It looks at adding hyperthermia (heating the tumor area) to re-irradiation, versus just re-irradiation or surgery alone, to see which offers better quality of life and survival with fewer side effects.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT05467891RecruitingPhase 2
Ribociclib plus hormone therapy for recurrent breast cancer
This trial tests whether adding ribociclib (a targeted pill) to hormone therapy can control breast cancer that has come back in the breast area or nearby lymph nodes/chest wall. It targets hormone-receptor–positive and HER2-negative tumors to help slow disease after local treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07190443RecruitingPhase 3
Abemaciclib after local recurrence in HR+ HER2- breast cancer
This trial tests whether adding a targeted drug (abemaciclib) to standard treatment helps prevent breast cancer from coming back again after a local recurrence in women with HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer.
Koto-ku, TokyoAges 18 years+ - NCT07026474RecruitingPhase 3
Re-radiation plus immunotherapy for recurrent head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of re-radiation and chemotherapy with the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab for people whose head and neck cancer has come back after earlier treatment. It compares this approach to standard immunotherapy or chemo-immunotherapy, and may offer a new option for patients whose cancer has a specific marker (PD-L1).
ChemnitzAges 18 years+ - NCT06699212RecruitingPhase 3
Light-activated therapy with immunotherapy for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new light-activated treatment (ASP-1929) combined with an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab) as a first treatment for head and neck cancer that has come back in the same area but has not spread to other parts of the body. It aims to see if this combination works better than standard treatment alone.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05933733Recruiting
Salvage treatment for breast cancer that returned locally
This trial looks at how well “salvage” treatments work for breast cancer that has come back only in the local area (like the chest wall or nearby lymph nodes), without spreading to distant organs. It also tracks side effects to better understand the risks and benefits for patients who need additional treatment.
SeoulAges 18–100 - NCT06958926Recruiting
Study of colon cancer that returns after surgery
This study looks at colon cancer that comes back in the same area after surgery. It may help doctors understand how to better treat this type of recurrence.
HsinchuAges 18 years+ - NCT07635641Recruiting
Proton Therapy for Recurring Head and Neck Cancer
This study tracks how well proton therapy (a precise radiation treatment) works when head and neck cancer comes back after previous treatment. Proton therapy uses high-energy particles instead of traditional X-rays, which may reduce side effects.
Rozzano, MilanoAges 18 years+ - NCT04975152RecruitingPhase 1
Cemiplimab before surgery for Merkel cell and skin cancers
This early-phase study tests cemiplimab (an immune therapy that helps your immune system attack cancer) given before surgery. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes for people with Merkel cell cancer or certain locally advanced skin squamous cell cancers (CSCC).
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04185038RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T therapy through a catheter for pediatric brain tumors
This Phase 1 trial tests a personalized immune-cell treatment (CAR T) delivered directly in the brain-area space using a catheter. It may help children and young adults with hard-to-treat (recurrent or refractory) diffuse midline brain tumors like DIPG/DMG when standard options aren’t working.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 1–26 - NCT07551336RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-NK cells for recurrent glioblastoma and high-grade brain tumors
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy called CAR-NK cells to treat glioblastoma or high-grade glioma that has come back or gotten worse after standard treatment. The cells are engineered to recognize and attack tumor cells in the brain.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07480941RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-NK cell therapy for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a new treatment using engineered immune cells (CAR-NK cells) that target two markers found on glioblastoma tumors. The treatment is given directly into the brain to fight tumors that have come back after standard therapy.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07544992RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T Cells for Recurrent High-Grade Brain Tumors
This trial tests genetically engineered immune cells (CAR T cells) injected directly into the brain to treat recurring or worsening high-grade gliomas. The cells are designed to recognize and attack tumor cells that have specific markers (EGFR and IL13Rα2).

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for locoregional recurrence?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 13 recruiting locoregional recurrence 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 locoregional recurrence 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 locoregional recurrence 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.
