Surgery for very high-risk or limited-spread prostate cancer
This trial looks at how safe and how well early prostate surgery works for men with newly diagnosed very high-risk prostate cancer or a limited number of metastases (cancer spread). It may help some people live longer and control the cancer, but eligibility is very specific.
ViennaAges 18–75 - NCT04878029RecruitingPhase 1
Cabozantinib plus enfortumab for advanced bladder cancer after immunotherapy
This Phase 1 study tests whether cabozantinib combined with enfortumab vedotin can help people with advanced urothelial (bladder) cancer that has already been treated with immunotherapy (PD-1/PD-L1) and usually chemotherapy. It aims to find a safer dose and see if the combo can shrink tumors or control the disease.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06020430Recruiting

Study of SYN818 with olaparib for advanced solid tumors
This trial is testing a new drug, SYN818, combined with olaparib for people with advanced solid tumors that have certain genetic changes (BRCA mutations or related DNA repair problems). It may be an option if you have ovarian or HER2-negative breast cancer and other treatments are no longer working.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07172802RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of GI-108 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called GI-108, which is designed to help your immune system fight cancer. It is for people with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments.

Study of HRS-8080 with dalpiciclib for advanced breast cancer after hormone therapy fails
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (HRS-8080 and dalpiciclib) for women with advanced or metastatic breast cancer that has stopped responding to initial hormone therapy after surgery. It aims to see if this combination is safe and effective.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04879121RecruitingPhase 2
Larotrectinib for tumors with extra NTRK gene copies
This trial studies larotrectinib, a targeted medicine, in people with solid tumors that have extra copies (amplification) of the NTRK1, NTRK2, or NTRK3 gene. It’s for cancers that have already been treated with standard options or where standard options are unlikely to help.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung cancer (locally advanced or metastatic)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 5,831 recruiting lung cancer (locally advanced or metastatic) 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 lung cancer (locally advanced or metastatic) 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 lung cancer (locally advanced or metastatic) 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.
