AMG 509 for advanced, hormone-resistant prostate cancer
This trial tests AMG 509, a study drug, in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (cancer that keeps growing despite lowering testosterone). It’s for people whose cancer has progressed after certain hormone tablets and possibly chemotherapy, aiming to shrink tumors and control the disease safely.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04280497Recruiting
Testing fast ways to tell steroid-resistant sepsis from sensitive
This trial studies a quick set of tests to figure out whether a person with severe infection (sepsis) will respond to corticosteroids like hydrocortisone. The goal is to guide treatment sooner and avoid ineffective care.
Garches, Hauts-de-SeineAges 18 years+ - NCT04288427Recruiting
Testing a prostate marker to predict response to finasteride
This study looks at a prostate test marker to understand who is more likely to benefit from 5-ARI medicines such as finasteride or dutasteride. If you have enlarged prostate symptoms and are getting a biopsy, the results may help doctors better choose or interpret 5-ARI treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 50 years+ - NCT04296097Recruiting
Deep brain stimulation for severe, steady disabling tinnitus
This study tests whether deep brain stimulation (a device that sends controlled signals to the brain) can reduce severe, constant tinnitus that has not improved with usual treatments. It may help lower the loudness distress and improve daily quality of life for people whose tinnitus is especially disabling.
GrenobleAges 18–75 - NCT04335383Recruiting
Study blood antibodies for a Pseudomonas-targeting treatment

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for resistance?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,200 recruiting resistance 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 resistance 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 resistance 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.
