- NCT06014827RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted radiation and osimertinib for lung cancer with EGFR mutation
This trial tests a new approach for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific EGFR mutation (Ex19del or L858R) and has started to grow again after at least six months on osimertinib. It combines two types of focused radiation with continued osimertinib to treat only the progressing spots while keeping the rest of the disease under control.

Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07147231RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Pidnarulex plus cemiplimab for MSS colorectal cancer
This trial tests two drugs together: pidnarulex (a targeted therapy) and cemiplimab (an immunotherapy that helps your immune system fight cancer). It is for people with advanced colorectal cancer that is microsatellite stable (MSS) and has not responded to current treatments, especially if their tumor has a MYC or FBXW7 change.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06942104RecruitingPhase 1
New imaging agent for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new imaging agent (18F-TRX) to see if it can better detect cancer spread in people with advanced solid tumors. It is designed for patients with specific cancers like high-grade brain tumors, advanced kidney cancer, or prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06130826RecruitingPhase 1
Immune therapy and radiation for advanced colorectal or breast cancer
This trial tests a combination of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and an immune-boosting drug (M5A-IL2) for colorectal or breast cancer that has spread and is no longer responding to standard treatments. The goal is to activate your immune system to fight the cancer.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07069699RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for lymphoma with MYC gene changes
This trial tests the safety of a new drug, CX-5461 (Pidnarulex), in people with certain types of aggressive B-cell lymphoma that have specific MYC gene changes. It aims to find out if this drug can help when standard treatments are no longer working.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05861050RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of 4-drug treatment for newly diagnosed high-risk mantle cell lymphoma
This trial tests a combination of medicines to treat newly diagnosed high-risk mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). It may help shrink the lymphoma and improve outcomes, especially for people whose disease has higher-risk features.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT05098210RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized vaccine made from your tumor’s new immune targets
This Phase 1 study tests a customized vaccine made from “neo-antigens,” which are new targets found in your tumor. It aims to help your immune system fight certain advanced cancers that have not responded well to prior treatment.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT06039371RecruitingPhase 2
High dose testosterone during chemo for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests if adding high doses of testosterone to standard chemotherapy (etoposide and carboplatin) can make the chemo work better in men whose prostate cancer has stopped responding to other treatments. It aims to see if this approach can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT05172245RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug added to chemoradiation for head and neck cancer
This study tests whether adding a new targeted drug called ipatasertib to standard chemoradiation can improve treatment for people with locally advanced head and neck cancer. Ipatasertib may help block a protein that helps cancer grow, possibly making the standard therapy more effective.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03017820RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine plus immune drugs for relapsed blood cancers
This early-phase trial tests a personalized-style vaccine (called VSV-hIFNβ-NIS) given alone or with other cancer-fighting medicines, including drugs that help the immune system attack. It is designed for people with certain relapsed or hard-to-treat multiple myeloma, acute myeloid leukemia, or lymphomas, to see if the treatment can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03649880RecruitingPhase 2

PET/CT scan changes during chemo with immune therapy
This study looks at how PET/CT scan results change while you receive chemo plus an immune therapy (a PD-1/PD-L1 medicine) for stage IV lung cancer. The goal is to better understand what the scans mean during treatment, which may help guide care in the future.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT04195633RecruitingPhase 2

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for positron emission tomography?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 357 recruiting positron emission tomography 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 positron emission tomography 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 positron emission tomography 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.
