Recruiting studies
- NCT04390737RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug HH2853 for hard-to-treat lymphoma and solid cancers
This Phase 1/2 trial tests the safety and early effectiveness of HH2853 in people whose cancer has come back or did not respond to prior treatment. It may help shrink tumors and guide future treatment for specific cancer types and genetic changes.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04305548RecruitingPhase 2
Trabectedin for advanced mesenchymal chondrosarcoma with a specific gene fusion
This trial tests trabectedin, a chemotherapy medicine, for people with advanced mesenchymal chondrosarcoma that carries a specific gene fusion (HEY1-NCOA2). It’s designed for cases that have worsened despite prior chemotherapy, aiming to shrink tumors or control disease.
Prato, FirenzeAges 16 years+ - NCT04354064Recruiting
Blood DNA test to see early treatment response in solid tumors
This study looks at circulating tumor DNA, which is tiny bits of DNA found in blood, to help assess how solid tumors are responding early. It uses blood samples from healthy adults who are willing to donate.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT04273061RecruitingPhase 2
Atezolizumab for tumors that look sensitive on DNA/RNA testing
This Phase 2 study tests atezolizumab, an immunotherapy drug, in people with advanced, incurable solid tumors whose tumor DNA/RNA suggests they may respond. The goal is to see if the treatment works better for patients selected by these lab results.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04308330RecruitingPhase 1
Vorinostat plus chemotherapy for advanced tumors in brain
This Phase 1 trial studies how safe and tolerable vorinostat is when combined with chemotherapy for cancers that have come back or are hard to treat, including tumors in the brain or spinal cord. It may help doctors find a better way to treat advanced solid tumors and CNS (brain/spinal cord) cancers.
Valhalla, New YorkAges 1–30 - NCT04188535Recruiting
Scanning tumor response during radiation therapy
This study uses repeated MRI scans during radiation treatment to see how tumors change. It may help doctors adjust treatment and improve outcomes for many types of cancer.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03959800Recruiting
Study of the causes of childhood liver tumors
This study looks at why childhood liver tumors happen by using samples and information from children who have had a liver tumor and from their close family members. It may help researchers understand the biology of these tumors and guide better treatments in the future.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges birth–99 years - NCT03589729RecruitingPhase 2
Dexrazoxane to help protect the heart during blood-cancer chemo
This Phase 2 study tests dexrazoxane, a heart-protecting medicine, to reduce heart side effects from chemotherapy in people with certain blood cancers. If you qualify, you would receive dexrazoxane along with chemotherapy, and the team will monitor your heart function closely.
Houston, TexasAges 12 years+ - NCT03300830Recruiting
Testing tumors linked to viruses, HIV, and immune disorders
This study collects and analyzes tumor tissue to learn what drives certain cancers and growths linked to viruses, HIV, and immune system problems. Results may help researchers understand disease causes and point to better future treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03261544Recruiting
Compare hip abductor repair methods after hip bone replacement
This trial studies which surgical method best reconnects the hip “abductor” muscle after a proximal femur (upper thigh bone) replacement. It may help improve walking and recovery by guiding surgeons toward the most effective repair technique.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 16–75 - NCT03017573Recruiting
Cancer biobank study linking tumor, immune system, and environment
This study collects tumor and related samples from people with certain newly diagnosed cancers. Researchers use these samples to better understand how cancer cells, the surrounding tissue, and the immune system interact, which may guide better future treatments.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT02792270Recruiting
Calorie reduction during pre-surgery radiation for leg sarcoma
This trial studies whether eating fewer calories before surgery, along with standard pre-surgery radiation, can improve outcomes for adults with leg soft-tissue sarcoma. If you qualify, you’d follow a calorie-reduction plan and then proceed to surgical removal of the tumor.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT02390752RecruitingPhase 1
Early drug study for children and young adults with hard-to-treat cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests pexidartinib (TURALIO) to see how safe it is and how well it works against refractory (hard-to-treat) leukemias and solid tumors, including tumors seen with NF1 and MPNST. It mainly helps researchers learn the best way to dose the medication and gather early signals of benefit.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–35 - NCT02012699Recruiting
Cancer registry for people with or at risk of cancer
This trial collects health information and samples (a “cancer repository”) to help researchers study cancer and cancer risk. You may be able to join if you’ve had cancer before or if you’re at higher risk or have concerning findings.
Greenwood Village, ColoradoAges 19–110 - NCT01772771Recruiting
Molecular testing to guide personalized cancer treatment plans
This trial uses special lab tests to look for tumor “molecular fingerprints” in your tumor or blood sample. The goal is to help your care team choose more personalized treatment options based on those results.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT00006518Recruiting
Tissue samples from people with viral infections or cancer
This study collects tissue and blood samples from people who have or have been exposed to certain viruses (HIV, KSHV, HPV, EBV, or HTLV-1) or who have developed cancer or precancerous skin lesions. The samples help researchers understand how these viruses may lead to cancer.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT01109394Recruiting
Help study tumors with sample testing and a research biology library
This study collects tumor (or related) samples to analyze their genes and build a shared research “biobank.” It may help researchers understand cancers better for future diagnosis and treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for sarcoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 401 recruiting sarcoma 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 sarcoma 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 sarcoma 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.
