Recruiting studies
- NCT06890871Enrolling by invitationPhase 1/Phase 2
Radiation with immunotherapy and anti-angiogenic therapy for advanced HER2-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of radiation therapy, immunotherapy, and a drug that blocks blood vessel growth for advanced HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread. It is for patients whose cancer has worsened after at least two prior treatments.

AvianoAges 18 years+ - NCT06896162Recruiting
Genetic test to guide first or second treatment for advanced cancer
This study looks at whether using a detailed genetic test of your tumor can help pick the best first or second treatment for advanced lung, colon, breast, or bladder cancer. The goal is to see if this personalized approach helps people live longer.

Drug combo plus immunotherapy for advanced bile duct cancer
This study tests a combination of three drugs (gemcitabine, cisplatin, nab-paclitaxel) plus an immunotherapy (tislelizumab) for people with advanced biliary tract cancer who haven't had treatment yet. The goal is to see if this cocktail shrinks tumors better than standard care.

Kidney removal after successful immunotherapy for metastatic cancer
This trial is for people with kidney cancer that has spread to other parts of the body, who still have their original kidney tumor. If your cancer has responded very well to immunotherapy (a type of treatment that helps your immune system fight cancer), doctors want to see if removing the kidney tumor now can improve your outcome.

Sintilimab plus chemo for elderly advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of the immunotherapy drug sintilimab plus standard chemotherapy (platinum-based doublet) as the first treatment for older adults (60–80) with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that does not have certain gene mutations. The goal is to see if this approach works better than chemotherapy alone.

This trial tests a new drug, VERT-002, for people with advanced solid tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), that have specific changes in the MET gene. It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or stop them from growing when other treatments haven't worked or aren't available.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06868277RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two drugs for first-line treatment of advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called Rilvegostomig against the standard drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has high levels of PD-L1 protein. The goal is to see which drug works better as a first treatment before any other cancer therapy.
La Mesa, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06862219RecruitingPhase 4
Enfortumab Vedotin safety study for advanced urothelial cancer
This study tests a new drug called enfortumab vedotin for people whose advanced urothelial cancer (bladder or urinary tract cancer) has not responded to prior immunotherapy (checkpoint inhibitors) and platinum chemotherapy. The goal is to see how safe and effective this treatment is for Indian adults.
Patna, BiharAges 18 years+ - NCT06863272RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of ifinatamab deruxtecan for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug, ifinatamab deruxtecan, either alone or in combination with other treatments, for men with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer that has worsened despite hormone therapy. It aims to see if this approach can help shrink or slow the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06864338Recruiting
Pilot study for a new colorectal cancer screening test
This study tests a new stool-based test for detecting colorectal cancer and advanced polyps. It aims to see how well it works compared to a colonoscopy. The results may lead to a simpler screening option.
Morrisville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06859801Recruiting
Bone pain study combining ablation and radiation
This study looks at combining two treatments for painful bone tumors that have spread from other cancers. It tests if using both treatments together provides better pain relief than either alone.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for metastatic?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,343 recruiting 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 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 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.
