GAIA-102 for relapsed or hard-to-treat childhood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests GAIA-102 in children and young adults whose cancer has returned or not responded to standard treatments. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and whether it may shrink tumors in certain pediatric solid cancers.
Fukuoka, FukuokaAges 1–24 - NCT05521984RecruitingPhase 1
Dapagliflozin trial for children with hard-to-treat brain tumors
This Phase 1 trial tests whether dapagliflozin (an SGLT2 medicine) can help shrink or control certain pediatric brain tumors or other solid tumors that have come back or won’t respond. It’s designed mainly to check safety and early signs of effect in children and young adults who have limited treatment options.
St Louis, MissouriAges 6–21 - NCT05468359RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing four medicines in children and teens with hard-to-treat tumors
This early-phase trial studies how safe and effective a combination of four medicines is for children and teens with certain solid tumors that have come back or cannot be controlled with standard treatment. It may help by improving tumor control, while also carefully tracking side effects.

CAR T therapy for children with B7-H3 solid tumors
This early-phase study tests a lab-made immune therapy (CAR T cells) made from your own cells to treat children’s solid tumors that have a specific marker called B7-H3. It is designed for kids whose cancer has come back or did not respond to standard treatment, aiming to shrink tumors and keep the therapy safe.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 21 years - NCT04796012RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Atezolizumab plus chemo for children with recurrent solid tumors
This trial tests whether a cancer immunotherapy medicine (atezolizumab) given together with chemotherapy can shrink or control solid tumors that have come back or did not respond to prior treatment. It focuses on children and young adults, including a special subgroup for rhabdomyosarcoma.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 6 months–30 years - NCT04570423RecruitingPhase 2
Eflapegrastim safety study for children and teens on chemo

Valhalla, New YorkAges 1 month–17 years - NCT04469530RecruitingPhase 2
Sirolimus plus low-dose chemotherapy for high-risk childhood tumors
This Phase 2 study tests whether sirolimus combined with low-dose (“metronomic”) chemotherapy can help children and young adults with certain high-risk solid tumors stay in remission or reduce recurrence risk. It is designed for people whose cancer has responded well to initial treatment, with only minimal or no visible disease on scans.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 1–30 - NCT04222413RecruitingPhase 1

Repotrectinib for kids with certain cancer gene changes
This early-phase study tests repotrectinib, a targeted medicine, in children and young adults whose tumors have specific gene changes involving ROS1 or NTRK. It may help shrink advanced cancers that carry these gene alterations.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Up to 25 years - NCT03739827Recruiting
Study rare solid tumors and collect your health samples
This study follows people (and sometimes family members) connected to rare solid tumors and collects health information and samples (biospecimens). It helps researchers understand how these cancers develop and builds resources for future research, which may benefit you by contributing to better tailored care for rare cancers.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 4 weeks+ - NCT02332668RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
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 - 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 - 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 - 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 - 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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pediatric solid tumor?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 82 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.
