This pilot study tests whether a high-intensity interval exercise routine is safe and doable for young adult survivors of pediatric brain tumors. It may help you improve fitness and quality of life while researchers closely monitor safety.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–45 - NCT06430788RecruitingPhase 2
Emapalumab for children with severe aplastic anemia
This trial tests whether a medication called emapalumab can help children with severe aplastic anemia, a condition where the bone marrow stops making enough blood cells. It combines emapalumab with standard immune-suppressing therapy to try to improve blood cell counts.
New York, New YorkAges birth–25 years - NCT06926751RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing low white blood cell counts in kids with solid tumors
This trial compares two drugs (Telpegfilgrastim and Filgrastim) to help prevent dangerously low white blood cell counts after chemotherapy in children and young adults with solid tumors. It's for patients who have already had this problem in a previous chemo round.
BeijingAges 6–24 - NCT07380672Recruiting
Relaxation and hypnosis for anxiety after childhood cancer
This study tests whether hypnosis and relaxation exercises can help lower anxiety in kids, teens, and young adults who finished cancer treatment. If you often feel anxious after your cancer journey, you might be able to join and learn new ways to feel calmer.
CaenAges 7–25 - NCT05504772Recruiting
Personalized genetic testing for children with cancer
This trial studies how personalized (tailored) genetic testing can help guide care for children with cancer. It may help match treatment choices to each child’s genetic risk, and it includes optional return of germline (inherited) test results.
AdelaideAges birth–25 years - NCT06004063Recruiting
Liquid nutrition vs. usual diet in stem cell transplant patients
This study tests whether giving liquid nutrition through a feeding tube during stem cell transplant is better than the usual diet. The goal is to see if it is safe and can help patients feel better during recovery.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06047977RecruitingPhase 1
Immune cell therapy for high-risk solid tumors in children and young adults
This trial uses a patient's own tumor-fighting immune cells (TILs) to treat high-risk solid tumors outside the brain in children and young adults. It has two parts: first, a tumor sample is collected during surgery, and then the immune cells are grown in a lab and given back to the patient to attack the cancer.
St. Petersburg, FloridaAges 1–21 - NCT03938987RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T-cell therapy for CD19-positive aggressive lymphoma or ALL
This trial tests a lab-made immune therapy (CAR T-cells) that targets CD19, a marker found on certain lymphoma and leukemia cells. It’s for people whose lymphoma or ALL came back or did not respond to standard treatments, with the goal of getting the treatment to attack the cancer.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 2–70 - NCT07091617Recruiting
Better genetic testing for young adults with cancer
This study tests a new way to offer genetic testing to young adults (ages 18-39) who have or had cancer. The goal is to make it easier for you to learn if you have inherited gene changes that could affect your cancer and your family's health.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT03830151RecruitingPhase 1
C-13 pyruvate MRI to help diagnose brain gliomas
This early-phase study tests a special MRI scan using C-13 pyruvate to help identify and understand gliomas (a type of brain tumor) in people with brain tumors going to surgery or biopsy. It may help doctors see tumor signals better before or around the time of your procedure.
Houston, TexasAges 19 years+ - NCT01109394Recruiting
Help study tumors with sample testing and a research biology library
This study collects tumor (or related) samples to analyze their genes and build a shared research “biobank.” It may help researchers understand cancers better for future diagnosis and treatments.

Teen-to-adult ALL study using a pediatric chemotherapy plan
This trial tests a treatment plan for newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in people ages 16 to 50. It aims to see how well a “pediatric-style” regimen works, but it only fits certain genetic and health profiles.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 16–50 - NCT06013618RecruitingPhase 2
Naxitamab for high-risk or relapsed neuroblastoma in children
This trial tests a targeted antibody called naxitamab (hu3F8) for children with high-risk neuroblastoma that has come back or is hard to treat. It aims to see if this therapy can help shrink or control the cancer with an acceptable safety profile.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pediatric cancer patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 172 recruiting pediatric cancer patients 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 pediatric cancer patients 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 pediatric cancer patients 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.
