AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT06387628RecruitingPhase 2
LM-108 with immunotherapy for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a new drug called LM-108 combined with a PD-1 inhibitor (a type of immunotherapy) for people with triple-negative breast cancer that has come back or spread. It aims to see if this combination can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06650579RecruitingPhase 3
Heart safety study of relugolix vs leuprolide for prostate cancer
This trial compares two hormone therapy combinations for men with prostate cancer that hasn't spread. The goal is to see if a newer oral medication (Relugolix) plus abiraterone works better than the standard injectable therapy (Lupron) plus abiraterone, while also checking heart safety.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06781879RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing bladder medication vs surgery for returning low-grade bladder cancer
This trial tests whether a chemotherapy drug placed directly into the bladder (chemoablation) works as well as surgery followed by chemotherapy for people whose low-grade bladder tumors have come back. It aims to find a less invasive option that still controls the cancer.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT07226856RecruitingPhase 2

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for recurrent cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 690 recruiting recurrent cancer 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 recurrent cancer 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 recurrent cancer 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.
