Recruiting studies
- NCT06514118Recruiting

SBRT for lung cancer with limited new growth
This trial tests whether a precise type of radiation called SBRT can control lung cancer that has started to grow in only a few new spots while you are on standard treatments. It may help you delay changing to a different treatment.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06525909Recruiting
Immune status in chronic hepatitis B
This study looks at how the immune system changes over time in people with chronic hepatitis B. It will help doctors better understand the stages of the disease to guide treatment decisions.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–50 - NCT06526299RecruitingPhase 2
Higher dose of targeted radiation for prostate cancer with low PSMA levels
This trial tests a higher dose of a radioactive drug (177Lu-PSMA-617) for men whose prostate cancer has spread and does not produce much of a protein called PSMA on scans. The goal is to see if a stronger dose can work better than the standard dose.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06527898RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Short-course radiation plus immunotherapy for limited-stage small-cell lung cancer
This study tests using a shorter course of radiation (hypofractionated radiotherapy) combined with immunotherapy for people with limited-stage small-cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if this approach works better at controlling the cancer and may cause fewer side effects.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–70 - NCT06528847RecruitingPhase 2
Adjuvant Benmelstobart for stage IB, grade 3 lung adenocarcinoma
This trial tests whether giving the immunotherapy drug Benmelstobart after surgery can help prevent return of a specific type of lung cancer. It is for people with stage IB, grade 3 (poorly differentiated) lung adenocarcinoma that has been completely removed.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–74 - NCT06533267Recruiting
Endoscopic surgery vs. radiation for early-stage nasal cancer
This trial compares two treatments for stage I nasopharyngeal cancer (a type of nasal cancer). It tests whether a minimally invasive surgery (endoscopic surgery) is as good as or better than radiation therapy. It may be an option for people whose cancer is small and hasn't spread to lymph nodes.
Zhuhai, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06536868RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab with chemo and radiation for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab) with chemotherapy and chest radiation for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC) that has spread. The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink or control the cancer longer.
Jincheng, ShanxiAges 18–80 - NCT06536881Recruiting
Diet and gut health during breast cancer chemo
This study looks at how changing your diet during chemotherapy affects side effects and your body's energy use. It involves providing stool samples to study gut bacteria.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06537908Recruiting
Check if a new drug combo works for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (anti-PD-1/PD-L1) and an anti-VEGF drug for people with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a type of liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. The goal is to see if these drugs can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
ShanghaiAges 18–90 - NCT06540443RecruitingPhase 1
Enhanced MRI for staging head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new imaging agent (MPB-2043) that may help doctors see cancer spread to lymph nodes more clearly during an MRI scan. It is for people with head and neck cancer who are planning to have lymph node surgery.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT06542159RecruitingPhase 2
Adaptive radiation for early-stage lung cancer or small metastases
This trial tests a more precise radiation technique (stereotactic body radiotherapy) for early-stage lung cancer or small lung tumors. It aims to reduce side effects by eliminating the usual safety margin around the tumor.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06542016Recruiting
Heart risk prediction in dialysis patients using a questionnaire
This study looks at how a simple questionnaire (called KCCQ) about your heart health and quality of life can help predict future heart risks for people on dialysis. Researchers want to see if your answers to this questionnaire can help doctors take better care of you.
Guangdong, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06543108Recruiting
Comparing two PET scans for stomach cancer
This study compares two types of PET scans (FAPI and FDG) to see which one works better for diagnosing stomach cancer. You would receive both scans within a week, and your doctor would also check your blood for tumor markers.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–90 - NCT06544083Recruiting
Blood test for early liver cancer detection
This trial is testing if a blood test can find liver cancer early. It may help people who are newly diagnosed or suspected to have liver cancer and have not started treatment yet.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06551714Recruiting
Movement techniques after first open heart surgery
This study tests special movement and breathing techniques to help people recover faster after their first open heart surgery. It focuses on improving health in the early days after surgery.
AnkaraAges 18–75 - NCT06555848Recruiting
Testing a new antibiotic bone filler for chronic bone infection surgery

OxfordAges 18 years+ - NCT06556485Recruiting
Early ablation for heart failure patients with heart pumps or on transplant list
This trial tests whether doing a catheter ablation early (before dangerous heart rhythms start) can help people with severe heart failure who need a heart transplant or already have an ICD. The goal is to see if this can improve outcomes.
Bad OeynhausenAges 18–99 - NCT06559761Recruiting
Imaging to predict liver cancer aggressiveness after surgery
This study looks at whether special scans can help doctors better predict how aggressive a person's liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) will be, especially right after surgery. If you are planning to have surgery to remove the tumor as your first treatment, this trial might be a good fit.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06562920RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemo and SBRT before surgery for limited-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (adebrelimab), chemotherapy, and targeted radiation (SBRT) before surgery for people with limited-stage small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink tumors and improve outcomes before the main treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for staging?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,877 recruiting staging 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 staging 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 staging 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.
