Recruiting studies
- NCT06494995RecruitingPhase 2
AK104 and low-dose radiation for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug called AK104 (cadonilimab) combined with low-dose radiation for people with head and neck or nasopharyngeal cancer that has come back or spread and no longer responds to first treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or stop them from growing.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04151082RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Steroid therapy for late nerve damage after throat cancer radiation
This trial tests whether high-dose steroids (prednisone or methylprednisolone) can improve symptoms of nerve damage that may occur years after radiation treatment for oropharyngeal cancer. It includes a registry for tracking similar nerve issues in head and neck cancer survivors.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04892303RecruitingPhase 1
Planning treatment using radiation plus radioactive iodine for thyroid cancer
This Phase 1 study tests how doctors plan a combination of two radiation approaches—external beam radiation and radioactive iodine—for thyroid cancer that is not fully responding to standard treatment. It may help people who still have iodine-avid tumor spots, but whose iodine uptake looks too low to work well with radioactive iodine alone.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–85 - NCT06023641RecruitingPhase 2
Liposomal irinotecan for children with rhabdomyosarcoma
This trial tests a new way to treat rhabdomyosarcoma using a targeted drug (liposomal irinotecan) based on the tumor's genetic makeup and risk group. It aims to improve outcomes for children and young adults with intermediate or high-risk disease.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges Up to 22 years - NCT07387978Recruiting
Laser therapy to prevent mouth sores during radiation for oral cancer
This trial tests if low-level laser therapy can reduce painful mouth ulcers caused by radiation treatment for oral cancer. It may help you keep your mouth healthier during therapy.
Melbourne, VictoriaAges 18 years+ - NCT07672171Recruiting
Far-infrared therapy for Alzheimer's dementia
This study tests whether far-infrared therapy (a gentle heat treatment) can help people with Alzheimer's dementia. If you have mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's on medication, you may be able to join.
TaipeiAges 61–92 - NCT05758688RecruitingPhase 2
Proton radiation after surgery for uterine or cervical cancer
This trial studies whether proton beam radiation after surgery can better treat certain uterine (endometrial) or cervix (cervical) cancers. It may help by targeting the pelvic area while limiting radiation to nearby organs.
Voorhees Township, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04923542RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted drug plus focused brain radiation for breast cancer
This study tests whether abemaciclib (a targeted pill) given with focused radiation to brain tumors can control hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancer in the brain. It’s designed to see if the combination helps shrink or slow the growth of brain metastases while keeping side effects manageable.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06197581Recruiting
Safety of Radiation with Modern Breast Cancer Drugs
This study checks if giving certain modern breast cancer drugs at the same time as radiation is safe. It's for women who need radiation and are also taking one of these drugs: capecitabine, a CDK4/6 inhibitor, a PARP inhibitor, immunotherapy, or a HER2 inhibitor.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT04648462Recruiting
Proton therapy planning for certain brain tumors
This study builds and tests how proton therapy planning could better protect the brain compared with standard radiation (photon therapy) for adults with certain brain tumors. It may help reduce radiation to sensitive areas like the hippocampus, with the goal of better long-term brain function.
Maastricht, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06036706Recruiting
Radiation types and thinking skills for skull base meningioma
This study compares different radiation methods for treating a slow-growing, non-cancerous brain tumor at the base of the skull. It aims to see which approach best protects memory and thinking abilities.
CaenAges 20–65 - NCT06494111RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing neck swelling after radiation for throat cancer
This study tests two medicines—pravastatin (a statin) and a combination of pentoxifylline and Vitamin E—to see if they can prevent long-term swelling (lymphedema) and scarring in the neck after radiation therapy for throat cancer. Participants receive one of the medicines daily for 2 years, and regular scans help monitor any changes.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06274047RecruitingPhase 3
Hormone Therapy Timing for Prostate Cancer After Surgery
This trial compares two ways of giving hormone therapy (apalutamide) along with radiation after prostate removal surgery. It aims to see which approach helps maintain quality of life while controlling cancer.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07675967Recruiting
Blood Cell Changes During Cancer Treatment
This study is for people with solid tumors who are about to start chemotherapy or radiation. It looks at how these treatments affect blood cells and may help doctors understand changes in blood health over time.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for radiation therapy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 686 recruiting radiation therapy 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 radiation therapy 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 radiation therapy 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.
