- NCT07070076Recruiting
Y-90 therapy vs chemo infusion for liver cancer
This study compares two liver-directed treatments—radioactive Yttrium-90 beads (SIRT) and a type of chemo infusion directly into the liver (HAIC)—for people whose liver cancer is advanced enough to need treatment but might still be removable with surgery. The goal is to see which approach can shrink the tumor best before surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06984250Recruiting
Shorter radiation with extra focus on tumor site for breast cancer
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation therapy that includes an extra dose to the tumor site for women with early-stage breast cancer. It aims to make treatment more convenient and effective after breast-conserving surgery.
Taipei, TaiwanAges 20–85 - NCT07058948RecruitingPhase 2
Combining special radiation with immunotherapy for advanced cancer
This trial tests a new type of radiation combined with immunotherapy for people with advanced solid tumors that are no longer responding to standard treatments or cannot tolerate them. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the disease.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07047495Recruiting

Chemo, radiation, and donor transplant for older adults with high-risk AML
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy (FLAG-Ida) followed by low-dose total body radiation and a stem cell transplant from a donor. It is for people age 60 and older with newly diagnosed high-risk blood cancers, aiming to improve outcomes with a less intense transplant preparative regimen.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT07049848RecruitingPhase 2
Study of atezolizumab with chemo and radiation for high-risk sarcoma
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (atezolizumab), chemotherapy (doxorubicin), and radiation before and after surgery for people with high-risk soft tissue sarcoma in the arm, leg, or trunk. The goal is to see if this approach can improve outcomes.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06992232RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation or surgery plus hormone therapy for prostate cancer that has spread
This trial tests whether giving intense hormone therapy along with either radiation or surgery can help men with prostate cancer that has spread to a limited number of spots (10 or fewer) but not to organs like the liver or lungs. The goal is to treat both the main tumor and the visible metastatic spots more aggressively.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT06991465RecruitingPhase 2
Organ preservation trial for rectal cancer using shorter radiation
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation to the pelvis to treat rectal cancer, with the goal of avoiding surgery and preserving the rectum. It may be an option for people with advanced rectal cancer that has not spread to other organs.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18–90 - NCT07039162RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab with chemo and radiation before surgery for advanced esophageal cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab) with chemotherapy and radiation, followed by surgery, for people with advanced esophageal cancer that cannot be removed right away. It aims to see if this approach can help shrink the tumor enough to allow surgery.
Kaohsiung CityAges 20 years+ - NCT07043608RecruitingPhase 2
Zanzalintinib for kidney cancer that spread to bone
This trial tests a new drug called zanzalintinib for people with advanced clear cell kidney cancer that has spread to the bones (at least 3 spots). The study wants to see if this drug can help slow down or shrink the cancer. It's for patients who have already had some prior treatments.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07038629RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo, radiation, and immunotherapy for older adults with esophageal cancer
This trial tests combining chemoradiation with the immunotherapy drug iparomlimab for adults aged 70 and older with advanced esophageal cancer. The goal is to see if adding immunotherapy after standard chemoradiation improves outcomes.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 70–90 - NCT05071105Recruiting
Short-course radiation for early breast cancer in older women
This study looks at a brief type of radiation called SBRT given soon after starting hormone therapy for certain early breast cancers in women age 75 and older. It may help treat the cancer locally while aiming to be easier to receive than longer radiation schedules.
Rome, RomeAges 75 years+ - NCT07014618Recruiting
Study to help breast and prostate cancer patients finish radiation therapy
This study tests whether a navigator program helps people from certain backgrounds complete their radiation therapy. If you have breast or prostate cancer and are scheduled for radiation, you may be able to join.
Oklahoma City, OklahomaAges 18 years+ - NCT07017816RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Gene therapy, checkpoint inhibitor, and radiation for children with brain cancer
This trial tests a new combination treatment for children and young adults with brain tumors that have come back or not responded to standard therapy. The treatment includes a gene therapy (SGT-53) that delivers a normal TP53 gene, a checkpoint inhibitor drug that helps the immune system attack the cancer, and focused radiation. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and can shrink tumors.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 3–21 - NCT07004582Recruiting
Lab study using mini-tumors to test prostate cancer treatments
This trial uses leftover tumor tissue from biopsies or brachytherapy to grow mini-tumors in the lab. Researchers want to test different treatments on these mini-tumors to find the best options for patients with high-risk or recurrent prostate cancer.
Heerlen, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06997094RecruitingPhase 1
Decitabine plus standard therapy for HPV-negative head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding the drug decitabine to standard treatment (surgery and possibly radiation) can help people with a type of head and neck cancer not caused by HPV. You would receive decitabine before surgery, and then continue with standard care after.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - 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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for radiation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,030 recruiting radiation 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 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 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.
