New drug combo for stomach cancer with abdominal spread
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (given through a vein and a pill) plus a chemotherapy infusion directly into your belly for stomach cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen. It specifically looks at a marker called Claudin 18.2 to see if this treatment works better for people with that marker.
Shanghai, Huangpu DistrictAges 18 years+ - NCT06527027Recruiting
New ways to assess lymph nodes in cancer patients
This trial compares three methods (LN-RADS, RECIST 1.1, and Node-RADS) to see which best evaluates lymph nodes in people with cancer. It may help doctors make more accurate decisions about your lymph nodes using CT or MRI scans.
KrakowAges 18 years+ - NCT06504147RecruitingPhase 2
Radspherin for ovarian cancer with peritoneal spread
This trial tests a radioactive treatment called Radspherin given during surgery for advanced ovarian cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen. It is for people whose tumors are HR proficient (a specific genetic type) and who have already had chemotherapy before surgery.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06500481RecruitingPhase 3
Proton vs standard radiation for cancer spread to brain/spine lining
This trial compares a newer type of radiation (proton therapy) to standard radiation for people whose breast or lung cancer has spread to the lining of the brain and spinal cord. It aims to see if proton therapy can better control the disease while causing fewer side effects.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06179602Recruiting
Study of thermal ablation for liver tumors
This study follows patients who are having a procedure called thermal ablation to treat liver tumors. It aims to learn more about how well the procedure works and how safe it is.
LeidenAges 18–110 - NCT06400550Recruiting
Melanoma metabolism and spread risk study
This study looks at how the body's metabolism might affect the spread of melanoma. Researchers want to see if certain metabolic traits in people with melanoma are linked to a higher risk of the cancer spreading.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06389786Recruiting
Using a new PET scan to find cancer spread before prostate surgery
This trial tests a special PET/MRI scan that may help doctors see if prostate cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes before surgery. It could help guide treatment decisions for men with high-risk prostate cancer.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 30–85 - NCT06362369RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Oral 7HP349 with immunotherapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental oral drug (7HP349) combined with two immunotherapy drugs (ipilimumab and nivolumab) for people with advanced solid tumors. It aims to see if the combination is safe and effective in shrinking tumors.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06362395RecruitingPhase 3
Very high single-dose radiation for liver tumors using MRI guidance
This trial tests a very high, single dose of radiation guided by MRI to destroy liver tumors that have spread from certain cancers. It may be a good option if you have 1 to 3 liver tumors that are away from sensitive organs and your liver is working well.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06374459RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Zunsemetinib and capecitabine for breast cancer with bone spread
This trial tests a new drug called zunsemetinib combined with the chemotherapy capecitabine for people with hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread to the bones. The goal is to see if this combination can better control the cancer.
Westwood, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06349590RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Diet before colon cancer surgery to reduce recurrence
This trial tests whether a specific diet before colon cancer surgery can change the bacteria in your gut to help prevent the cancer from coming back or spreading. Patients who are eligible will follow the diet for a short time before their operation.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06356584RecruitingPhase 2
A drug combination with or without radiation for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug combo (fruquintinib and sintilimab) with or without radiation for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver and has not responded to earlier treatments.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT06315010RecruitingPhase 2
Repotrectinib for lung cancer with brain metastasis
This trial tests a targeted pill called repotrectinib for people with a specific type of lung cancer (ROS1-positive non-small cell lung cancer) that has spread to the brain. The drug aims to shrink brain tumors and control the cancer, especially when brain-focused treatments like surgery or radiation are not needed right away.

Blood test for cancer DNA after liver surgery in colorectal cancer
This study uses a simple blood test (liquid biopsy) to look for tiny bits of cancer DNA after surgery for colorectal cancer that spread to the liver. It aims to see if this test can find cancer earlier than standard scans, which may help guide future treatment decisions.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT06293157Recruiting
Carbon fiber screws for spinal cancer treatment
This trial tests if carbon fiber screws are better for stabilizing the spine when cancer has spread there. It may help patients who are getting special radiation therapy (SBRT) for spinal tumors.
BydgoszczAges 18 years+ - NCT06264167Recruiting
Ultrasound for groin lymph nodes in vulvar cancer
This trial tests whether using ultrasound of the groin can help find cancer spread in the lymph nodes of women with early-stage vulvar cancer. The goal is to see if ultrasound can replace or reduce the need for more invasive surgery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for metastasis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 338 recruiting metastasis 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 metastasis 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 metastasis 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.
