Nivolumab for rare solid tumors with high PD-L1
This trial is testing a drug called Nivolumab (an immunotherapy) for people with rare solid tumors that have high levels of PD-L1. It might be an option if you have tried other treatments and they stopped working or caused too many side effects.
Fortaleza, CearáAges 18 years+ - NCT06660407RecruitingPhase 2
Grid radiation for advanced lung cancer after immunotherapy
This trial tests a special type of radiation called grid therapy for people with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer that has grown after immunotherapy or chemoimmunotherapy. It aims to see if this approach can help control tumors that are larger than 3 centimeters outside the brain.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06682793RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of A2B395 therapy for solid tumors with EGFR and HLA loss
This trial tests a new cell therapy called A2B395 for cancers that have EGFR, a protein on the cell surface, and have lost a specific marker called HLA-A*02. The therapy uses specially engineered immune cells to target and kill these cancer cells. This may help patients with colorectal, lung, head and neck, breast, kidney, or other solid tumors that are no longer responding to standard treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for small cell carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 795 recruiting small cell carcinoma 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 small cell carcinoma 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 small cell carcinoma 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.
