- NCT07207824RecruitingPhase 3
Study of a new drug for high-risk bladder cancer
This trial tests a combination of a drug (DV) and BCG immunotherapy for people with high-risk, early-stage bladder cancer that has not spread into the muscle. The cancer must show a specific protein called HER2 on its cells.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07005726Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
BCG revaccination with DTP3 to reduce infant deaths in Africa
This study tests whether giving another BCG vaccine (the one for tuberculosis) at the same time as the third DTP shot can help reduce serious infections and deaths in babies in Africa. If your baby is healthy and getting their routine DTP3, this could be an option to possibly boost their overall protection.
BissauAges 3 months–6 months - NCT04752722RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for bladder cancer that came back after BCG
This study tests a new gene therapy (EG-70) given directly into the bladder for people with a high-risk bladder cancer called NMIBC. It may be an option if BCG treatment stopped working, or if you cannot have or choose not to have bladder removal surgery.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07424287RecruitingPhase 3
New drug plus BCG vs chemo for BCG-resistant bladder cancer
This trial tests a new combination treatment (SHR-1501 plus BCG) compared to standard chemotherapy for people with bladder cancer that hasn't responded to BCG. The goal is to see if this combination works better at controlling the cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04899765RecruitingPhase 4
Measles and BCG shots for moms and toddlers
This trial tests whether giving measles and BCG vaccines to mothers and their children after the child turns 12 months is safe and helpful. It specifically looks at women who are not pregnant and meet several health and study-area requirements.
Bissau, Bissau CodexAges 15–35 - NCT05037279RecruitingPhase 3
Testing BCG treatment for bladder cancer after full tumor removal
This trial studies a BCG-based bladder instillation in people with newly diagnosed, intermediate- or high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer who have had their tumor fully removed. The goal is to see whether this treatment is safer and works better to lower the chance of the cancer coming back.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06441110RecruitingPhase 3
BCG instillation for medium- to high-risk bladder cancer
This trial tests whether a specific schedule of BCG (a weakened germ that boosts the immune system) placed directly into the bladder is safe and effective for medium- to high-risk bladder cancer that hasn't grown into the muscle. It aims to see if adjusting the standard BCG course can work better for people with a PD-L1-positive tumor.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT07000084RecruitingPhase 3
Testing gemcitabine with BCG for returning bladder cancer
This trial tests whether adding a chemotherapy drug called gemcitabine to the usual BCG therapy can help prevent bladder cancer from coming back again. If you have had BCG before and your cancer returned, this study might offer a more effective treatment option.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07322263RecruitingPhase 2
Gemcitabine and docetaxel for bladder cancer that returned after BCG
This trial tests a combination of two chemotherapy drugs (gemcitabine and docetaxel) given directly into the bladder to treat high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer that has come back or not responded to BCG therapy. It's for people who cannot or choose not to have their bladder removed.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–99 - NCT06971614RecruitingPhase 2
T3011 for bladder cancer not responding to standard treatments
This trial tests a drug called T3011 for a type of bladder cancer that hasn't responded to standard treatments like BCG or chemotherapy. It aims to see if T3011 can help shrink the cancer or keep it from growing, offering a new option for people who have limited choices.
Queen Creek, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07747740RecruitingPhase 2
Bladder cancer treatment after BCG therapy fails
This trial compares two combinations of chemotherapy drugs given directly into the bladder to see which works better for patients whose bladder cancer has not responded to BCG therapy.
Moscow, MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT07307456RecruitingPhase 2
Toripalimab and BCG for high-risk bladder cancer
This trial tests a combination of two treatments after bladder tumor surgery: a drug called toripalimab (given through a vein) plus BCG therapy (given into the bladder) for people with high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. The goal is to see if this combination can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT03945162RecruitingPhase 2
Bladder cancer trial using light therapy in the bladder
This Phase 2 study tests a treatment called photodynamic therapy (PDT) placed directly into the bladder. It may help people whose non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer did not respond to BCG treatment or could not tolerate it.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06186414RecruitingPhase 1
SIM0237 with or without BCG for bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug, SIM0237, alone or with BCG, for people with a type of bladder cancer called non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) that did not respond to BCG treatment. The goal is to see if it is safe and works against the cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06241755RecruitingPhase 3
BCG to prevent bladder cancer return after surgery
This study tests if BCG therapy can prevent bladder cancer from coming back after surgery. It's for people with early-stage bladder cancer that hasn't spread into the muscle layer.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06833073RecruitingPhase 2
Study of an mRNA vaccine and BCG for bladder cancer
This trial tests an experimental mRNA vaccine (V940) combined with BCG therapy for people with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer that hasn't spread. It aims to see if the vaccine can help the immune system better fight the cancer.
Bakersfield, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07094711RecruitingPhase 2
BCG vaccine boost for MAC lung disease
This study tests whether a single dose of the BCG vaccine (a live vaccine used for TB) can help the immune system fight MAC lung disease. Participants must not be on MAC treatment now, but may start it during the study if needed.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07122414RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for bladder cancer that resists BCG
This trial tests a new drug (FL115) given directly into the bladder, alone or with BCG, for people with a type of bladder cancer that has not responded to BCG therapy. It aims to find a better treatment option for those who cannot have or refuse bladder removal surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07495072Recruiting
Timing of Blad-Care during BCG therapy for bladder cancer
This trial tests whether giving Blad-Care early or later during BCG treatment changes outcomes for people with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. BCG is a standard therapy that uses a germ to help your immune system fight cancer, and Blad-Care is a device used in the bladder.
Seoul, Dongdaemun-guAges 19 years+ - NCT06078891Enrolling by invitationEarly Phase 1

What Bcg is being studied for
Conditions with recruiting Bcg studies.
Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Bcg?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 38 recruiting studies that include Bcg, 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 Bcg 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 Bcg 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 Bcg or a specific trial is right for you.
