Recruiting studies
- NCT03382158Recruiting
Learn about DICER1-related tumors through a patient registry
This registry collects information about people with known or suspected DICER1-related conditions, including certain rare chest and other tumor types. It helps doctors and researchers understand these conditions better and may support future studies.

Vorinostat plus chemotherapy for advanced tumors in brain
This Phase 1 trial studies how safe and tolerable vorinostat is when combined with chemotherapy for cancers that have come back or are hard to treat, including tumors in the brain or spinal cord. It may help doctors find a better way to treat advanced solid tumors and CNS (brain/spinal cord) cancers.

PET scan study to optimize imaging in several diseases
This trial improves a special PET scan (a type of brain/body imaging) using 18F-DOPA, to better show how certain conditions behave in the body. If you or your child may have one of the listed conditions, the study may help your doctors get clearer scan results.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges Any age - NCT04851119RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tegavivint for kids and young adults with hard-to-treat solid tumors
This early-phase study tests tegavivint to see how well it works and how safe it is for children and young adults with solid cancers that have come back or are not responding. It may be an option if your tumor type (including certain lymphomas or desmoid tumors) matches the study’s rules.

Register people with certain neuroblastic tumors in an international study
This study creates an international registry linked to a virtual biobank, so researchers can collect and share information and biological samples for patients with specific peripheral neuroblastic tumors. It may help future research and care planning by improving what scientists know about these conditions.

TCR cell therapy for NY-ESO-1 positive metastatic cancers
This study tests a customized immune-cell treatment made from your own T cells to attack cancers that have NY-ESO-1. It may help shrink tumors in people with metastatic or hard-to-treat cancer when other treatments have not worked.
JerusalemAges 18–70 - NCT05642455RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a new treatment for certain childhood cancers
This Phase 1/2 study tests a new therapy for children and young adults with specific types of cancer that have been treated with chemotherapy before. It may help by targeting cancer features in the tumor and using your immune system in a controlled way.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 2–21 - NCT05770037RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Alectinib for ALK-positive cancers in teens and adults
This study tests whether alectinib can treat ALK-positive cancers in adults, teenagers, and children. It focuses on people whose cancer testing shows an ALK change, and who can start oral treatment and have a new tissue sample.
BelfastAges Any age - NCT05890781Recruiting
Study pediatric cancer using lab-made immune organoids
This trial uses special lab models (“immune organoids”) to study certain cancers in children and young people. It may help researchers learn what those cancers do and improve future treatment ideas.
VillejuifAges Up to 25 years - NCT06000787Recruiting
MCT imaging for brain tumors and neuroblastoma
This study is for children or young adults already in specific brain tumor or neuroblastoma trials. It looks at how a type of imaging (MCT) might help doctors better understand and treat these cancers.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06479811RecruitingPhase 1
Radioactive drug for advanced neuroendocrine and other cancers
This trial tests a new radioactive drug, [212Pb]VMT-Alpha-NET, that targets a protein on certain cancer cells. It is for people with specific types of advanced cancers that have gotten worse and are not responding to standard treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neuroblastoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 105 recruiting neuroblastoma 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 neuroblastoma 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 neuroblastoma 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.
