Biopsies and FOLFIRINOX for non-metastatic pancreatic cancer
This Phase 2 study looks at different types (subtypes) of pancreatic tumors in people treated with FOLFIRINOX, a chemotherapy. It requires tumor biopsies before and after treatment to see how the tumor changes, which may help doctors better match treatments in the future.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–99 - NCT04511013RecruitingPhase 2
Trial for BRAF-mutant melanoma spread to the brain
This Phase 2 study tests whether a 3-drug plan (encorafenib + binimetinib + nivolumab) works better than ipilimumab + nivolumab for melanoma that has spread to the brain. If you qualify, you’ll get either treatment and have frequent brain scans to track how well it controls the tumors.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04585750RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Studying a new drug for cancers with a specific TP53 change
This trial tests a new drug (rezatapopt) for people with advanced cancers that have a specific change in the TP53 gene, called Y220C. The drug is designed to target this change and may slow or stop cancer growth. Some participants may also receive an immunotherapy drug called pembrolizumab (Keytruda).
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT04577599Recruiting
Mobile low-dose lung CT screening for ages 40–54

New targeted pill combo for advanced colon or stomach cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests a combination of oral (swallowed) drugs—trifluridine/tipiracil plus talazoparib—in people with advanced (locally advanced or metastatic) colorectal or gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma. It’s designed to see how well the treatment can control cancer and to better understand side effects and dosing.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04575935RecruitingPhase 3
Minimally invasive surgery after chemotherapy for advanced ovarian cancer
This trial studies whether doing surgery using smaller incisions after chemotherapy works as well as a more traditional approach for certain people with stage IIIC–IV ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. It may help reduce surgical trauma while aiming for effective tumor removal.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04449549RecruitingPhase 2
Nilotinib and paclitaxel for rare solid tumors
This study tests a combination of two drugs, nilotinib and paclitaxel, in people with certain rare cancers that have not responded to standard treatments. It aims to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT04410302Recruiting
Personalized tumor research for bladder, lung, stomach, and liver cancers
This study uses a small sample of your tumor to grow it in the lab, which may help researchers understand your cancer better and find treatments that work for you.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 21–100 - NCT04453072Recruiting
iPhone weight-loss app for teens and young adults after transplant
This study tests whether an iPhone weight-management app can help adolescents and young adults lose weight after a stem cell transplant. If you qualify, you’ll use the app and the team will track changes in weight.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 13–30 - NCT04406831Recruiting
Testing microRNA for pancreatic cancer diagnosis and treatment response
This study looks at tiny molecules in your body (microRNA) to help doctors better diagnose pancreatic cancer, predict how it may progress, and understand how it responds to treatment. It may help guide more personalized care in the future.
Norwalk, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT04473794Recruiting
Testing ways to assess pancreatic cyst risk and progression
This study looks at patients who have been referred for evaluation of a pancreatic cyst. It aims to improve how doctors estimate risk and predict how cysts may change over time.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04489719Recruiting
Testing whether DNA repair changes affect radium-223 response
This study looks at whether differences in a cancer’s DNA repair system can predict how well radium-223 works for men with prostate cancer that has spread to the bones. It may help researchers choose better treatment for people with bone metastatic, castration-resistant prostate cancer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04429542RecruitingPhase 1
Test of an EGFR-targeting drug for advanced solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests the safety of BCA101 (an EGFR-targeting treatment) alone or combined with pembrolizumab. It may help people with certain EGFR-driven advanced cancers, depending on the tumor type, prior treatments, and required biopsy testing.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04256317RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Azacitidine pills with or without venetoclax for certain blood cancers
This study tests whether a pill form of azacitidine (ASTX030) helps people with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), CMML, or AML. Some groups may also receive venetoclax; the goal is better blood cancer control for people who aren’t good candidates for intensive chemotherapy.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04348747RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine plus pembrolizumab for breast cancer in the brain
This trial studies whether a personalized immune-cell vaccine (dendritic cell vaccine) combined with pembrolizumab can help control brain metastases from certain types of breast cancer. It may help your immune system better recognize and attack cancer cells in the brain.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04370574Recruiting
Testing blood or tissue markers for suspected pancreatic cancer
This trial looks for “soluble biomarkers” (markers that can be found in body fluids like blood) for people who have a pancreatic mass and may have pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. The goal is to improve how pancreatic cancer is identified, especially using information taken from an endoscopic ultrasound biopsy.
Montpellier, MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT04239573Recruiting
Compare pancreatic cyst checkup programs and test markers
This study compares different ways to monitor pancreatic cysts and also measures blood or other test markers to see which approach is more helpful. It may help patients by finding the safest, most effective way to track certain cysts that could otherwise be hard to manage.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 50–75 - NCT04222413RecruitingPhase 1
Study of metarrestin for advanced solid tumors
This study tests an experimental drug called metarrestin for people with solid tumors that have spread or come back after standard treatment. It may help by targeting a protein involved in cancer cell growth.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neoplasms?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,642 recruiting neoplasms 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 neoplasms 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 neoplasms 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.
