Foshan, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06710665Recruiting
Predicting adjuvant therapy success after esophageal cancer surgery
This trial looks at how well the tumor responded to chemotherapy or radiation before surgery, to see if that can help doctors decide next steps like additional treatment. It may help people with esophageal squamous cell cancer who had the tumor removed completely after initial therapy.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18 years+ - NCT07279935RecruitingPhase 4
Testing osimertinib with chemo for lung cancer that returned
This trial is for people with a specific type of lung cancer (EGFR-mutated non-small cell) that has come back in another part of the body after finishing treatment with osimertinib after surgery. It tests whether giving osimertinib again plus chemotherapy can help control the cancer.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06043999Recruiting
Chemotherapy vs. surgery for high-risk rectal cancer after local removal
This trial compares standard chemotherapy to more extensive surgery (total mesorectal excision) for patients whose initial local surgery showed high-risk features like poor differentiation, lymphovascular invasion, or larger tumor size. It aims to find the best treatment to prevent cancer from coming back.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 169 recruiting studies that include Adjuvant chemotherapy, drawn from the U.S. registry and rewritten for real people so you can see what each is testing and who it's for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a Adjuvant chemotherapy trial?
- Each study lists its own eligibility criteria — rules about condition, age, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Is Adjuvant chemotherapy an approved treatment?
- A drug being studied in a trial may be investigational (still being tested) or already approved and being studied for a new use. Each study page explains what phase it's in. Clin2 does not provide medical advice — talk with your doctor about whether Adjuvant chemotherapy or a specific trial is right for you.
