Recruiting studies
- NCT06810609RecruitingPhase 2
Immunochemotherapy, surgery, and durvalumab for stage III lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy, chemotherapy, and either surgery or radiation for people with stage IIIA or IIIB non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if adding the drug durvalumab after standard treatment helps control the cancer better.
Freiburg im Breisgau, Baden-WurttembergAges 18–74 - NCT06709859RecruitingPhase 2
Afatinib plus chemo for unresectable stage III lung cancer
This trial tests whether combining afatinib (a targeted pill for EGFR mutations) with chemotherapy can shrink advanced stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) enough to make surgery possible. It is for people whose cancer has not been treated yet and has a specific EGFR mutation.
Jinan, ShangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06797635RecruitingPhase 2
Study of Patritumab Deruxtecan and Pembrolizumab for High-Risk Early Breast Cancer
This trial tests a combination of targeted therapies (patritumab deruxtecan plus pembrolizumab) along with other anticancer drugs for people with a high-risk type of early-stage breast cancer that is either triple-negative or has very low hormone receptors and is HER2-negative. The goal is to see if this approach can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06798116Enrolling by invitation
Gum disease treatment with platelet-rich fibrin and albumin gel
This study tests a new treatment for severe gum disease. It combines a natural blood product (platelet-rich fibrin) with a special albumin gel to help repair bone defects around teeth. The goal is to see if this mixture helps the bone grow back better than standard treatment.
Al MansurahAges 25–55 - NCT06800716Recruiting
Impella temporary pump for end-stage heart failure
This study tests whether using a temporary heart pump called Impella 5.5 can help strengthen a very weak and enlarged heart (dilated cardiomyopathy) in people who are waiting for a heart transplant. If you qualify, the pump is placed to support your heart temporarily, and the research team will check how your heart responds.

68Ga-FAPI-46 PET scan for head and neck cancer staging
This trial tests a new type of PET scan that uses a special tracer (68Ga-FAPI-46) to see if it can better show the extent of head and neck cancers before surgery. It may help doctors plan your treatment more accurately.
Lausanne, Canton of VaudAges 18 years+ - NCT06314503Recruiting
Safety study of a new peritoneal dialysis device for kidney patients
This trial tests a new device called WEAKID for people on peritoneal dialysis. It aims to see if the device is safe to use. Participants must have been on PD for at least 3 months and have no recent infections or catheter problems.
Modena, ModenaAges 18 years+ - NCT06572540Recruiting
Cryoablation for early-stage lung cancer

Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06783309RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing CNP-103 for newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes
This trial tests a new study drug called CNP-103 for people ages 12-35 who were recently diagnosed (within 6 months) with stage 3 type 1 diabetes. The goal is to see if the drug can help preserve the body's ability to make some insulin, potentially slowing the need for more insulin shots.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 12–35 - NCT06791291RecruitingPhase 2
Teplizumab for Japanese with early-stage type 1 diabetes
This trial tests an experimental drug called teplizumab to see if it can slow down or stop type 1 diabetes from getting worse. It is for Japanese people aged 1 to 34 who have stage 2 type 1 diabetes (blood sugar is slightly abnormal but not yet full diabetes).
Ichikawa, ChibaAges 1–34 - NCT04136535RecruitingPhase 2
Treating resistant lung cancer with chemo plus or minus an added drug
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding an extra targeted medicine (anlotinib) to standard chemotherapy (pemetrexed and carboplatin) can better control osimertinib-resistant lung cancer with an EGFR mutation. It’s for people whose lung cancer has already progressed after osimertinib, and it aims to shrink tumors and slow the disease.
Shenzhen, shenzhenAges 18–75 - NCT06788548Recruiting
Fluorescence-Guided Surgery for Early Stomach Cancer
This trial tests a new technique that uses a special dye to highlight the first lymph nodes where stomach cancer might spread, allowing surgeons to remove only the necessary nodes during surgery. The goal is to reduce side effects while still effectively treating the cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT04634240Recruiting
Staged heart bypass plus TAVR versus TAVR alone
This study compares doing a staged coronary bypass (revascularization) along with a valve procedure (TAVR) versus doing TAVR and medical treatment alone. It aims to see which approach better helps people with both aortic valve narrowing and coronary artery disease.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT06780098RecruitingPhase 2
Study of new treatments for advanced squamous lung cancer
This trial tests new drugs for people with advanced squamous non-small cell lung cancer that has gotten worse after standard treatments like immunotherapy and chemotherapy. The goal is to find better options for those who need them.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT06780137RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gocatamig plus ifinatamab deruxtecan for advanced small cell lung cancer
This study tests two new drugs (gocatamig and ifinatamab deruxtecan) for people whose small cell lung cancer has spread or come back after standard chemotherapy. It aims to see if the combination works better than current options.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06780085RecruitingPhase 2
Study of new drugs for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests new treatments for people with stage IV nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer that has gotten worse after prior immunotherapy and chemotherapy. It aims to find better options for those whose cancer has specific genetic features.

This trial is testing whether giving patients with early-stage cancer extra money to pay for non-medical needs helps them. If you are getting treatment at PeaceHealth and have some financial worries, you may be able to join.
Bellingham, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT06770582RecruitingPhase 2
Adding immunotherapy to radiation for bladder cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab to radiation therapy works as well as or better than the usual chemotherapy given with radiation for a type of bladder cancer that has not invaded the muscle. It is for people whose cancer came back or has high-risk features and who would otherwise need to have their bladder removed.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06768931RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy before surgery for triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests adding an immunotherapy drug to standard chemotherapy before surgery for triple-negative breast cancer. The goal is to see if this combination works better than chemotherapy alone.

Skipping lymph node removal for melanoma with good treatment response
This trial tests whether patients with stage 3 melanoma that shrinks significantly after initial immunotherapy can safely avoid having all their lymph nodes surgically removed. Instead, only the main affected node is removed for testing.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 16 years+ - NCT06745908RecruitingPhase 3
New drug combo for lung cancer after immunotherapy stops working
This trial tests a new drug combination (N-803 and tislelizumab with chemotherapy) for people whose lung cancer stopped responding to standard immunotherapy. The goal is to see if this treatment can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Springdale, ArkansasAges 18–90 - NCT06743308Recruiting
New questionnaire to improve understanding in advanced lung cancer
This study tests a new questionnaire to help people with advanced lung cancer better understand their illness. It is for patients who are being treated at MD Anderson and were recently diagnosed.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for staging?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,854 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.
