Surgery for thigh bone cancer: reconstruction vs. repair
This trial compares two types of surgery to fix the top part of the thigh bone that has been weakened or broken by cancer that spread from another part of the body. One surgery replaces the damaged area with an artificial joint, and the other repairs it using metal plates and screws.

Cemiplimab for advanced lung cancer with high PD-L1
This trial tests a drug called cemiplimab (an immunotherapy) for people with advanced lung cancer that has high PD-L1 levels. It uses a simple blood test to track how well the treatment is working.
Alicante, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT07144085RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new PET scan tracer for cancer diagnosis
This trial tests a new type of PET/CT scan that uses a special tracer (called ⁶⁸Ga-FXX489) to help find and diagnose cancers. It is for people who are strongly suspected to have cancer and want to see if this new imaging method can help their doctors learn more about their disease.

Tucatinib and capecitabine plus spinal trastuzumab for HER2+ cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a combination of tucatinib and capecitabine (taken by mouth) plus trastuzumab delivered into the spinal fluid, to treat breast cancer that has spread to the leptomeninges (lining around the brain/spinal cord). It may help reduce cancer activity in the spinal fluid and improve symptoms.

MunichAges 18 years+ - NCT04333706RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Sarilumab plus capecitabine for certain breast cancers
This trial studies whether adding sarilumab to capecitabine can shrink or control metastatic or high-risk breast cancer that lacks HER2 and is either triple-negative or hormone-resistant. It aims to find a safe dose first, then look at how well the treatment works compared with historical results.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–99 - NCT06747845RecruitingPhase 2

LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT07106762RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of new targeted drug vs chemo for bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug called Izalontamab Brengitecan (a targeted therapy that delivers chemo straight to cancer cells) against standard platinum chemotherapy for people whose bladder cancer worsened after immunotherapy. It may be an option if you are fit for chemo but haven't had platinum chemo recently.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT02422641RecruitingPhase 2
High-dose methotrexate for breast cancer in the brain lining
This Phase 2 trial tests whether giving high-dose methotrexate into the bloodstream can help treat breast cancer that has spread to the thin lining covering the brain and spinal cord. It may help reduce cancer in the leptomeningeal (brain-lining) area and control symptoms.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04989725RecruitingPhase 2
Precision radiation for a few new cancer spots while on treatment
This trial tests a precise, high-dose radiation technique (SABR) for people whose cancer has started to grow again in only a few spots despite ongoing medication. The goal is to control those new growths while continuing your current treatment.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT05112549RecruitingPhase 1
PD-1 antibody placed into brain fluid for metastatic cancer
This early-phase study tests a PD-1 antibody delivered directly into the brain fluid (intrathecal space) to treat metastatic solid tumors that have spread to the lining around the brain/spinal cord (leptomeningeal disease). It aims to see whether this approach can better control cancer in that area and whether it’s safe.
BonnAges 18 years+ - NCT07192900RecruitingPhase 1
Fast TILs for metastatic cancer with pleural disease
This trial tests a new therapy using your own immune cells (called TILs) to treat cancer that has spread to the lining of the lungs. The goal is to see if these cells can shrink tumors and help you feel better.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18–79 - NCT06016387RecruitingPhase 2
Drug combo with radiation for HER2+ breast cancer spread to spinal lining
This trial tests a combination of three targeted drugs (tucatinib, trastuzumab, and capecitabine) along with radiation to the brain or spine for people whose HER2-positive breast cancer has spread to the lining of the brain or spinal cord. The goal is to see if this treatment is safe and effective.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07026110Recruiting
PET/CT for distinguishing non-small cell lung cancer
This study uses a special PET/CT scan to better tell if a lung nodule is non-small cell lung cancer. If you have a solid nodule in your lung that's at least 8 mm and might be cancer, this scan could help get a clearer diagnosis.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT06190899RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing gedatolisib plus darolutamide in advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs, gedatolisib and darolutamide, in men with prostate cancer that has spread and stopped responding to hormone therapy. The goal is to see if the combination can help control the cancer when standard treatments have stopped working.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT03803553RecruitingPhase 3
Testing blood tumor DNA treatment after stage III colon surgery
This trial studies how to find tiny hidden cancer cells after stage III colon cancer surgery using a blood test. If the blood test shows tumor DNA, you may get additional treatment to lower the chance of cancer coming back.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT01280825Recruiting

Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05255302RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Shorter immune maintenance for stage IV lung cancer after initial treatment
This trial tests whether giving immune therapy maintenance for a shorter time helps people with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who are doing well after initial chemo-immunotherapy. It aims to keep the cancer controlled while possibly reducing treatment exposure and side effects.
Aix-en-ProvenceAges 18–74 - NCT06958107Recruiting

Study of cervical cancer treatment patterns in Italy
This study looks at the types of treatments and disease characteristics in people with cervical cancer that is locally advanced (cannot be removed by surgery) or has come back or spread. It may help doctors understand how different treatments are used in Italy.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for metastatic disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 91 recruiting metastatic disease 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 metastatic disease 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 metastatic disease 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.
