Pembrolizumab for children with advanced, hard-to-treat cancer
This trial tests pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy that helps the body recognize and attack cancer) in children with advanced solid tumors or lymphoma that can’t be cured. It’s designed for kids who have already tried standard treatments or don’t have standard treatment options.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 6 months–17 years - NCT06721689RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
PEEL-224 with chemo for pediatric solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called PEEL-224 combined with two chemotherapy medicines (vincristine and temozolomide) for children and young adults with certain solid tumors that have come back or not responded to treatment. It aims to see if this combination is safe and works against the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 1–30 - NCT06730204Recruiting

Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Up to 18 years - NCT07054944Recruiting
Lymph node mapping for children with solid tumors
This study is testing a new way to map lymph nodes in children with solid tumors. It helps doctors understand how tumors spread to lymph nodes, which may guide treatment.
Rochester, New YorkAges 1 month–17 years - NCT07148050RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T-cell therapy for children with solid tumors
This trial tests a new kind of immunotherapy for children and teens with solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The therapy uses specially engineered T cells (CAR T cells) that target a protein called GPC3 found on many tumor cells, and it includes extra signals (IL-15 and IL-21) to help the T cells work better.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 1–26 - NCT01050296Recruiting
Study of tumor samples to guide treatment for childhood cancers
This study collects and studies tissue or bone marrow samples from certain childhood tumors. The goal is to learn what’s going on inside the cancer (using molecular testing) to better understand the disease and how it may respond to treatment.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 25 years - NCT07584499RecruitingPhase 1
New drug test for children with EGFR-positive solid tumors
This study tests a new cancer drug called Becotatug Vedotin in children ages 2–18 with certain types of solid tumors (cancers that form in organs or tissues) that have an EGFR protein. The drug is designed to find tumors with this protein and attack cancer cells while sparing healthy ones.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 2–18 - NCT04715191RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T therapy for GPC3-positive pediatric solid tumors
This Phase 1 study tests a customized immune-cell treatment (CAR T cells) made to recognize GPC3, a marker found on some tumors. It’s designed for children and young people whose solid tumors have not been cured by standard treatment and who can safely receive this therapy.
Houston, TexasAges 1–21 - NCT06006273RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug combo for children with returning solid tumors
This trial tests a new combination of three chemotherapy drugs (eribulin, irinotecan, and temozolomide) for children and young adults whose solid tumors have come back or not responded to standard treatment. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective.
Houston, TexasAges 1–25 - NCT07043894RecruitingPhase 2
Romiplostim for low platelets from chemo in kids
This trial tests a drug called romiplostim to help raise platelet levels in children and young adults (ages 6–24) whose platelets drop due to chemotherapy. It’s for those with solid tumors or other non-marrow cancers who are still getting strong treatment.
BeijingAges 6–24 - NCT07240207Recruiting
Studying immune cells in children's solid tumors
This trial analyzes the tumor environment in children with solid tumors to find better ways to use immune cells for treatment. It may help develop new cell-based therapies tailored to each child's tumor.
Pavia, PaviaAges 1 day–18 years - NCT04299191RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
LAM561 for children with advanced brain or solid tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests a medicine called LAM561 in children whose cancer is advanced and not responding to standard treatment. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and can shrink or control tumors in this setting.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges Up to 18 years - NCT06441331RecruitingPhase 1
Lu-177 edotreotide for children with SSTR-positive tumors
This trial tests a radioactive drug called Lu-177 edotreotide for children with a certain type of tumor (SSTR-positive) that hasn't responded to other treatments. The goal is to find the right dose and see how safe it is.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 2–18 - NCT05151718Recruiting
Study of ependymoma treatment resistance in children
This trial looks at why ependymoma can resist (be harder to treat) after radiation or treatment. It studies children who are already being followed in specific existing programs, which may help researchers find better treatment approaches in the future.
ToulouseAges Up to 25 years - NCT06208917RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two ways to give ondansetron for chemo nausea in kids
This trial compares two forms of ondansetron (a nausea medicine) — a dissolving film you put in the mouth versus a needle injection — to see which works better in preventing nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy in children with solid tumors.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 6 months–18 years - NCT05135975RecruitingPhase 2
Cabozantinib maintenance to help stop pediatric cancer from growing
This trial studies cabozantinib given after standard treatment to try to keep high-risk pediatric solid tumors from coming back or getting worse. It is offered to children and young adults whose cancer has not fully disappeared but is not progressing at the start of this maintenance phase.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1.5 years–40 years - NCT05004116RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Repotrectinib plus chemotherapy for relapsed solid tumors in youth
This early-phase study tests repotrectinib (a targeted anti-cancer pill) combined with chemotherapy in children and young adults whose solid tumors have come back or did not respond to standard treatment. The goal is to see how safe the treatment is and whether it can shrink tumors.
New York, New YorkAges 1–25 - NCT07756034Recruiting
Cancer data registry for patients in the U.S.
This study collects information from people with cancer to help researchers learn more about the disease. You may join a general cancer registry or, if your child has a specific type of leukemia, a special part of the study.

San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 6 months–25 years - NCT05306509Recruiting
Early palliative care talks for kids with cancer
This trial tests whether nurse-led conversations about comfort and support (palliative care) early in a child’s cancer journey can help families and the child cope better. It is focused on newly diagnosed or relapsed pediatric cancer patients in Chinese-speaking settings.
Shanghai, MinhangAges Up to 18 years - NCT06915727RecruitingPhase 3
Testing an imaging drug to see tumors in children having surgery
This study tests a special imaging drug called pafolacianine (Cytalux) that helps doctors see tumors more clearly during surgery. It is for children and teens who have a solid tumor in the body and are already scheduled for tumor removal or biopsy.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pediatric solid tumor?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 79 recruiting pediatric solid tumor 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 solid tumor 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 solid tumor 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.
