Recruiting studies
- NCT06207006Recruiting
Online program for fear of cancer returning
This trial tests an online program to help Chinese cancer survivors who have a moderate fear of their cancer returning. It is for people who recently finished treatment for early-stage colorectal or breast cancer.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT06211335RecruitingPhase 1
Losartan, pembrolizumab and radiation for advanced head & neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of three treatments—a blood pressure drug (losartan), an immunotherapy (pembrolizumab), and targeted radiation—for people with head and neck cancer that has come back, spread to a few spots, or is not responding to other treatments. The goal is to see if this mix can shrink tumors and help patients who have few options left.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06217874Recruiting
Collecting Samples and Data for Recurrent or Metastatic Breast Cancer
This study collects tissue samples and health information from people with breast cancer that has spread or come back. It aims to help researchers learn more about the disease and may lead to better treatments.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06220188RecruitingPhase 2
PSMA therapy for prostate cancer that has come back
This trial tests a targeted radiation therapy (PSMA-RLT) for men whose prostate cancer has returned after initial treatment, shown only by rising PSA levels. It aims to control the cancer without using hormone therapy.
ViennaAges 18–80 - NCT06220552RecruitingPhase 2
Low-dose radiation plus immunotherapy for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a combination of low-dose radiation, an immunotherapy drug (sintilimab), and chemotherapy (temozolomide) for people with glioblastoma that has come back. The goal is to see if this approach can help control the tumor and improve survival.
Zhuhai, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06228079RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo-immunotherapy after surgery for early reoccurring nasopharyngeal cancer
This study looks at whether adding chemo-immunotherapy after surgery is better than surgery alone for patients whose nasopharyngeal cancer has returned but is still in early stages. It may help prevent the cancer from coming back again.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06235203RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing treatment timing in recurrent nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial compares giving chemotherapy and immunotherapy before surgery (neoadjuvant) versus after surgery (adjuvant) for patients whose nasopharyngeal cancer has returned locally. It aims to find which approach works better to control the cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06241599RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
AK104 with chemo for advanced nasopharyngeal cancer
This study tests if adding a new immunotherapy drug (called AK104) to standard chemotherapy can help people whose nasopharyngeal cancer has come back or spread after previous treatment. The goal is to see if the combination works better than chemotherapy alone.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06254326RecruitingPhase 1
Immune cell therapy for recurrent oligodendroglioma
This trial tests a personalized immune cell therapy for adults with a specific type of brain tumor (oligodendroglioma) that has come back. The treatment uses your own immune cells to target the tumor.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–89 - NCT06265285RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab at home vs. clinic for cancer treatment
This study compares giving the immunotherapy drug nivolumab as a shot under the skin at home versus in the clinic. It is for people with certain cancers who are already taking or starting nivolumab.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06283927Recruiting
Surgery vs. medical care for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial compares surgery to the best non-surgical treatment for people whose glioblastoma has come back. The goal is to see which approach helps people live longer with a better quality of life.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT06292286Recruiting
Second surgery for recurrent ovarian cancer that responds to platinum
This trial tests whether having a second surgery after initial treatment can help people with ovarian cancer that came back but still responds to platinum-based chemotherapy. It may offer another option to remove remaining tumors and delay further treatments.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT06305832RecruitingPhase 2
Salvage radiation plus hormone therapy with or without rezvilutamide for rising PSA
This trial tests whether adding a new oral hormone blocker (rezvilutamide) to standard salvage radiation and hormone therapy can better control prostate cancer that has come back (rising PSA) after surgery.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 40 years+ - NCT06305910RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine immunotherapy for recurrent brain tumors or newly diagnosed DIPG
This trial tests a combination of a vaccine made from tumor cells and a drug that may boost the immune system's ability to fight brain tumors. It is for children and young adults with a recurrent high-grade glioma or a newly diagnosed diffuse midline glioma with a specific genetic marker (H3K27M).
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 2–25 - NCT06307548RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Image-guided surgery and light therapy for colorectal cancer
This trial tests a special dye that helps surgeons see tumors more clearly during surgery, followed by a light therapy to destroy any remaining cancer cells. It is for people with advanced or returning colorectal cancer who are already scheduled for surgery.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06311227RecruitingPhase 2
Venetoclax for relapsed hairy cell leukemia
This trial tests a targeted pill called venetoclax for people whose hairy cell leukemia has returned after other treatments. It aims to see if venetoclax can help control the disease and improve blood counts.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07355205RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Combination immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a three-drug combination (ipilimumab, nivolumab, and nogapendekin alfa inbakicept) as a first treatment for people with stage IV or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if this approach can help your immune system fight the cancer more effectively.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06326190RecruitingPhase 2
Study of radioactive drug for recurrent meningioma
This trial tests a radioactive drug called 177Lu-DOTATATE for people with recurrent meningioma (a type of brain tumor) that has grown after surgery and radiation. The drug targets a protein on the tumor cells and delivers radiation directly to them.
InnsbruckAges 18 years+ - NCT06329999Recruiting
CMGV for recurrent AML and high-risk MDS
This study tests a new treatment called CMGV for adults whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) has returned or is not improving. It is for people who may be older or have had other blood disorders.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06344130RecruitingPhase 1
Shorter radiation for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a new, shorter course of radiation therapy (called hypofractionation) for people with glioblastoma that has come back. It is for patients who have already had radiation and are doing well enough to consider another round.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06355206Recruiting

Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06389591RecruitingPhase 1
RNA Vaccine for Recurrent Glioblastoma
This trial tests a new personalized RNA vaccine made from your own tumor tissue. It is designed to help your immune system fight the cancer after it has returned. You will have surgery to collect the tumor, and then the vaccine is given to try to stop the tumor from growing again.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for recurrence?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,423 recruiting recurrence 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 recurrence 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 recurrence 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.
