Study recurrence after laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair with mesh
This study looks at how often a large hiatal hernia comes back after a specific surgery: laparoscopic repair using mesh plus an anterior fundoplication. It may help surgeons better choose the technique that lowers the chance of recurrence.
Ages 18 years+ - NCT03583710RecruitingPhase 3
Mitotane after adrenal tumor surgery, with or without chemo
This study looks at whether giving mitotane after surgery (and possibly adding cisplatin/etoposide chemotherapy) helps prevent adrenal cancer from coming back. It is for people with stage I–III adrenal cortical cancer who have a high risk of relapse after their tumor was removed.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05530057RecruitingPhase 2
Eribulin plus or minus trastuzumab for HER2-positive breast cancer
This trial tests whether adding trastuzumab to eribulin improves outcomes for people with HER2-positive breast cancer that has come back or spread. It’s meant for patients whose cancer has progressed after prior HER2 and chemotherapy treatments.
SeoulAges 18 years+ - NCT05521698RecruitingPhase 1
Bicalutamide study for early bladder cancer in men
This trial tests whether bicalutamide can help men with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (an early form that hasn’t spread into muscle). It is a Phase 1 study, meaning the main goal is to see how safe it is and learn how it behaves in the body for this cancer type.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT01898416RecruitingPhase 2
5-ALA by mouth to reduce regrowth of desmoid tumors
This Phase 2 trial tests whether taking a medicine called 5-ALA by mouth after treatment can lower how often desmoid tumors come back in the same area. If you have a desmoid tumor that can be removed and you meet safety criteria, this study may help determine whether 5-ALA is effective and safe for you.
Tel Aviv, IsraelAges 18 years+ - NCT04428671RecruitingPhase 1
Cemiplimab before and after surgery for high-risk skin cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests the drug cemiplimab given before and after surgery to reduce the chance that high-risk cutaneous squamous cell cancer comes back. You may be a candidate if your cancer is high-risk on pathology or imaging and is planned for surgical removal.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT03878849RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug 2X-121 for ovarian cancer that keeps coming back
This Phase 2 trial tests whether 2X-121 can shrink or control ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that is resistant to platinum chemotherapy. It enrolls people who have had limited prior treatment and can provide a recent or stored tumor sample.
Oklahoma City, OklahomaAges 18 years+ - NCT03994978Recruiting
Compare bowel function after sigmoid surgery vs watchful care
This study looks at whether having elective sigmoid colon surgery helps bowel function and quality of life compared with conservative (non-surgery) care in people with recurrent, uncomplicated diverticulitis. It may help clarify which approach leads to fewer ongoing bowel problems and better daily comfort.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT04220905Recruiting
Watching outcomes after removing large colon and duodenal polyps
This observational study follows people who have large polyps in the colon or duodenum that are removed during endoscopy. It aims to understand how safe and effective this approach is, and what outcomes patients have afterward.
White River Junction, VermontAges 18 years+ - NCT07015697RecruitingPhase 1
Study of subcutaneous trastuzumab deruxtecan for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a form of the drug trastuzumab deruxtecan that is given as a shot under the skin for people with certain metastatic solid tumors, including breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer with HER2 changes. It aims to see how well the shot works and if it is safe.
Newport Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03073278Recruiting
Targeted re-radiation for prostate cancer recurrence in one area
This study tests a focused radiation treatment (SBRT) to a small, clearly identified spot in the prostate for men whose prostate cancer has come back after prior external beam radiation. It may help control cancer while limiting radiation to the rest of the prostate and nearby organs.
St Leonards, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT06262919Recruiting
Monitoring safety of Tafinlar/Mekinist for BRAF-positive tumors
This study tracks the safety of the combination therapy Tafinlar and Mekinist in people with advanced or returning solid tumors that have a BRAF mutation, except for colorectal cancer. It aims to make sure the treatment is safe in the real world.
Nagakute, Aichi-kenAges 6–99 - NCT06199180Recruiting
Comparing two ablation methods for repeat atrial fibrillation treatment
This trial tests a newer type of energy (pulsed field ablation) against the standard heat-based method (radiofrequency) for people who have already had one ablation and now have atrial fibrillation again. The goal is to see which works better for keeping your heart in a normal rhythm.
GroningenAges 18–80 - NCT06812039RecruitingPhase 2
Perioperative treatment for high-risk liver cancer using HAIC, donafenib, and sintilimab
This trial tests a combination of treatments—chemotherapy delivered through the liver artery (HAIC), a targeted drug (donafenib), and an immunotherapy (sintilimab)—given before and after surgery for liver cancer that has a high chance of coming back. The goal is to see if this approach can lower the risk of recurrence.

Two minimally invasive surgery options for recurrent diverticular problems
This trial compares two types of minimally invasive surgery for people with recurrent diverticular disease who need surgery for a benign (non-cancerous) polyp and have an early, limited tumor in the sigmoid colon/rectosigmoid area. It may help find which approach is safer or better for recovery.
LeuvenAges 18–90 - NCT03675672RecruitingPhase 4
Preventing repeat bleeding from stomach or upper gut ulcers
This trial studies medicines to help stop bleeding from coming back after you’ve had an “idiopathic” stomach/upper gut ulcer bleed. It may help by reducing ulcer re-bleeding risk in people who don’t have common causes like H. pylori or common ulcer-triggering drugs.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT06205862RecruitingPhase 2
Fecal transplant for preventing colon polyp return
This study tests whether taking capsules of healthy bacteria (fecal microbiota transplant) can help prevent colon polyps from coming back after they have been removed. It might be an option for people who have had an adenoma polyp removed and want to reduce the chance of recurrence.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06476145Recruiting
Testing two ways to reduce polyp regrowth after removal
This study looks at two different methods for removing large colon polyps to see which one better prevents polyps from coming back. It may help people who have a non-cancerous, flat polyp that is at least 20 mm wide.

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.
