Vaccine with chemotherapy for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a cancer vaccine called STEMVAC combined with chemotherapy in people with a type of breast cancer that has spread and does not have certain markers. The goal is to see if adding the vaccine helps the chemotherapy work better.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT07699939RecruitingPhase 2
Perioperative immunotherapy plus chemo for advanced gastric cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug HLX10 (serplulimab) to standard chemotherapy (S-1 plus oxaliplatin) before and after surgery can improve outcomes for patients with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has a high level of PD-L1 protein.
Chiba, ChibaAges 18–80 - NCT06758401RecruitingPhase 3
Sigvotatug vedotin plus pembrolizumab for advanced lung cancer with high PD-L1
This trial tests a new combination of two study medicines for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has high levels of PD-L1 protein. The goal is to see if adding sigvotatug vedotin to pembrolizumab works better than pembrolizumab alone.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 62 recruiting pd-l1 positive 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 pd-l1 positive 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 pd-l1 positive 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.
