Drug and radiation combo for recurrent pelvic endometrial cancer
This study tests a combination of two drugs (lenvatinib and pembrolizumab) plus focused radiation to the pelvis for a specific type of endometrial cancer that has returned or cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this treatment is safe and effective for tumors that are pMMR and limited to the pelvic area.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03726359Recruiting
Targeted radiation for brain metastases using staged stereotactic treatment
This Phase 1 study tests a form of focused radiation given in stages to shrink larger brain metastases. It may help people whose tumors are in the brain but not suited to whole-brain radiation alone, while also checking safety and how well the treatment can be delivered.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06239272RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized treatment for NRSTS in children and young adults
This trial tests a personalized treatment plan for children and young adults with a type of soft tissue sarcoma (NRSTS). It uses a combination of surgery, targeted radiation, and two drugs (pazopanib and selinexor) to fight cancer while reducing side effects. The study is looking for people who have not been treated before for this sarcoma.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges Up to 30 years - NCT06493019RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab with chemo and radiation for early anal cancer
This trial tests a combination of the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab, two chemotherapy drugs (carboplatin and paclitaxel), and radiation for people with early-stage anal cancer who cannot take the usual chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective as an alternative treatment.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT07061964RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy and radiation to save the bladder
This trial tests whether combining immunotherapy and low-dose radiation after chemotherapy can help you avoid bladder removal. It's for people whose muscle-invasive bladder cancer has shrunk significantly after initial treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04754321RecruitingPhase 1
Test immunotherapy with salvage surgery and IORT for head and neck cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a new plan that combines immunotherapy with surgery, plus a targeted radiation treatment called IORT. It is for people whose head and neck squamous cell cancer has come back or never fully went away and can be operated on. The goal is to shrink or control the cancer and see how safe the approach is.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05099003RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Selinexor plus radiation for newly diagnosed brain tumors
This trial studies whether adding selinexor to standard radiation can improve outcomes for children and young teens with certain newly diagnosed high-grade brain tumors (including DIPG). It’s designed for specific tumor types and genetic markers, and people must be able to start treatment soon after diagnosis.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1–21 - 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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for radiation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,052 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.
