Brentuximab plus nivolumab for Hodgkin lymphoma after prior treatment
This Phase 2 study tests brentuximab and nivolumab (two anti-cancer medicines) in people with classical Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back or did not respond to earlier treatment. It may help by attacking lymphoma cells in different ways, especially after limited options from prior therapies.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 12 years+ - NCT06254248RecruitingPhase 2
Safety of two cancer drugs after liver transplant
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (atezolizumab and bevacizumab) for people whose liver cancer has returned after a liver transplant and cannot be treated with surgery or other local procedures. The goal is to see if this treatment is safe for liver transplant recipients.
ClichyAges 18–90 - NCT02491099RecruitingPhase 2
Afatinib for recurring HER2-positive uterine cancer
This trial tests afatinib, a targeted pill, in people whose uterine serous cancer has a specific HER2 (HER2/neu) tumor marker. It aims to shrink tumors or control the cancer when it keeps coming back.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18–100 - NCT07062380Recruiting
AI tool to predict liver cancer return after surgery
This study uses an AI tool to predict how liver cancer might come back after surgery. It is for people with early-stage liver cancer who are already scheduled for surgery and have recent MRI scans.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT05201508Recruiting
Sutures versus special mesh for hiatal hernia repair
This study compares two ways of closing tissue during laparoscopic surgery for a severe hiatal hernia. It may help doctors learn which method gives better outcomes and fewer problems after surgery.
OuluAges 18 years+ - NCT07311577RecruitingPhase 2
Trial of a drug combo for HER2-positive ovarian cancer
This trial tests a combination of disitamab vedotin, platinum chemotherapy, and bevacizumab as first treatment for high-risk ovarian cancer that has a protein called HER2. The goal is to see if this therapy helps control the cancer and keeps it from growing.

Radiation vs monitoring for high-risk skin cancer
This trial compares two strategies after surgery for a type of skin cancer (cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma) that has a high chance of coming back. One strategy gives radiation therapy to the area, while the other just watches and checks for any signs of recurrence. The goal is to see if radiation can prevent the cancer from returning.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for recurrent?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,424 recruiting recurrent 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 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 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.
