Donor-made memory T-cell therapy for hard-to-treat leukemia
This Phase 1 study tests an immune-cell therapy made from a matched donor to treat relapsed or refractory CD19-positive leukemia. It may help patients who have limited options, especially those who cannot receive the standard donor-cell or self-made (autologous) CD19 CAR T-cell therapy.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 21 years - NCT04903899RecruitingPhase 2
Lutetium-DOTATATE for relapsed or hard-to-treat neuroblastoma in children
This Phase 2 trial tests a targeted radioactive medicine called 177Lutetium-DOTATATE in children with high-risk neuroblastoma that has returned or did not respond to treatment. It’s designed for tumors that show strong uptake on special scans, which may help the medicine find and treat cancer cells.
Copenhagen, CopenhagenAges 1.5 years+ - NCT04914026Recruiting
MicroRNA test for testicular cancer diagnosis
This study looks at tiny genetic signals called microRNAs to see if they can help identify or track testicular cancer. It may help doctors recognize testicular cancer more accurately and decide what to do next.
BergenAges 18–70 - NCT04920617RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine plus pembrolizumab, with or without low-dose chemo
This Phase 2 study tests whether a cancer vaccine called DPX-Survivac, along with pembrolizumab (an immune medicine), can help shrink diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) that has come back or not responded. It also looks at whether adding intermittent low-dose cyclophosphamide (a low-dose chemotherapy) improves results.
Fountain Valley, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04921527RecruitingPhase 3
Chiauranib with weekly paclitaxel for tough ovarian cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether chiauranib combined with weekly paclitaxel can shrink recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that did not respond to platinum chemotherapy. It is designed for people who have limited treatment options after platinum-resistant or platinum-refractory disease.
Shanghai, ChinaAges 18–70 - NCT04924868RecruitingPhase 3
Ursodeoxycholic acid to prevent gallstone pancreatitis returning

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for relapse?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 905 recruiting relapse 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 relapse 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 relapse 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.
