Low Grade Glioma of Brain clinical trials in California
We’re tracking 9 recruiting low grade glioma of brain studies with a site in California — including Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in California
- NCT04063514Enrolling by invitation
MRI-focused ultrasound study of blood-brain barrier in low-grade glioma
This study uses special imaging during routine MRI scans to check how well the blood-brain barrier lets substances pass in people with low-grade brain tumors. It may help researchers better measure and track treatment effects over time.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04166409RecruitingPhase 3
Selumetinib versus chemo for low-grade brain tumor in children
This trial studies whether the targeted drug selumetinib works better than standard chemotherapy (carboplatin and vincristine) for children and young adults with a specific type of low-grade glioma (grade 1 or 2). It may help shrink tumors and slow growth while comparing side effects between the two treatment approaches.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 2–21 - NCT07110246RecruitingPhase 2
Dabrafenib and trametinib for BRAF-mutated low-grade gliomas
This trial tests two targeted drugs (dabrafenib and trametinib) for children and young adults with a specific type of low-grade brain tumor that has a BRAF V600 mutation. The drugs work by blocking signals that help the tumor grow.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 1–25 - NCT03948490Recruiting
Cognitive rehab and follow-up for lower grade brain tumors
This study offers cognitive rehabilitation and long-term monitoring for adults with lower grade gliomas. It aims to help improve thinking and memory problems you may be experiencing.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06118723Recruiting
Supramaximal vs maximal surgery for brain tumors
This trial compares removing as much tumor as safely possible (supramaximal resection) with standard maximal resection in people with high-grade glioma (an aggressive brain tumor). The goal is to see if more extensive removal improves survival and quality of life.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT05538130RecruitingPhase 1
Study medicine for BRAF-mutated advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 trial studies how PF-07799544 works and what dose is safest in people with advanced cancer that has a specific genetic change called BRAF V600. You may receive it alone or with another treatment, depending on the tumor group, to see if it can treat the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 16 years+ - NCT07506239Recruiting
Laser therapy for low-grade brain tumors in young people
This trial tests a laser treatment called LITT for low-grade glioma (a type of brain tumor) that has come back or is growing despite prior treatment. It aims to see if the laser is safe and effective in young people aged 2 to 25.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 2–25 - NCT06146725Recruiting
Resection vs. biopsy in high-grade glioma patients
This study compares whether having surgery to remove as much of the tumor as possible (resection) or just taking a small sample (biopsy) leads to better outcomes for people with a fast-growing brain tumor (high-grade glioma). The goal is to help guide treatment decisions.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT07215910RecruitingPhase 3
Testing vorasidenib with temozolomide after radiation for advanced brain cancer
This trial tests whether adding the targeted drug vorasidenib to standard chemotherapy (temozolomide) after radiation helps people with a specific type of advanced brain cancer called IDH-mutant astrocytoma. It is for patients who have not had previous treatments like chemotherapy or radiation and whose tumors have certain genetic features.

What taking part in a low grade glioma of brain study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
Common questions
- Are there low grade glioma of brain clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 9 recruiting low grade glioma of brain studies with a site in California, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a low grade glioma of brain study in California?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in California to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in California, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a low grade glioma of brain trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
