Recruiting studies
- NCT07155200RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a new drug combined with irinotecan for small cell lung cancer
This study tests a new drug (cirtuvivint) combined with irinotecan, a common chemotherapy, for people whose small cell lung cancer has progressed after at least one prior treatment. The goal is to see if the combination helps control the cancer and whether it is safe.

New combo before surgery for low rectal cancer
This trial tests a new combination of treatments (radiation, immunotherapy, and two chemotherapy drugs) given before surgery for people with a specific type of locally advanced rectal cancer that is close to the anus. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective.
Shantou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07047560RecruitingPhase 2
A new chemo combo for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a different way of giving a chemotherapy drug called irinotecan, along with two other drugs (5-FU and bevacizumab), for people whose cancer got worse after first-line treatment. It aims to see if this combination can help control the cancer.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05727163RecruitingPhase 2
Liver-directed chemotherapy versus standard chemotherapy for RAS-mutated CRC

Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07027748RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a longer treatment of three drugs for neuroblastoma
This trial tests giving a combination of naxitamab, irinotecan, and temozolomide for a longer period to people whose neuroblastoma has come back or hasn't responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective.

Liposomal irinotecan combo for advanced Ewing sarcoma
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (liposomal irinotecan, temozolomide, and fluzoparib) for people with Ewing sarcoma that has spread or come back after first treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06998940RecruitingPhase 3
Chemotherapy with or without panitumumab for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests whether adding a targeted drug called panitumumab to standard chemotherapy can help people with a certain type of pancreatic cancer that has spread. It is for patients whose tumors do not have a KRAS mutation and who have already had one line of chemotherapy.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT06958328RecruitingPhase 3

Liver-only metastatic colon cancer trial using targeted chemo
This Phase 3 trial tests different ways to deliver chemotherapy for colon cancer that has spread only to the liver (with limited possible tiny lung spots). It looks at whether the treatment plan improves outcomes compared with another chemotherapy approach, using oxaliplatin and LV5FU2 (with or without irinotecan) plus an added targeted medicine.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06258642Recruiting
Irinotecan liposome plus anlotinib for SCLC after first chemo
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—irinotecan liposome (a chemotherapy) and anlotinib (a targeted therapy)—as a second treatment for small cell lung cancer that returned quickly after initial chemo. The goal is to see if this combo can work better than standard options.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06450041RecruitingPhase 2
STING trial for high-risk neuroblastoma
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy (temozolomide and irinotecan), natural killer cells (NK cells), and an antibody therapy (GD2 mAb) to see if it can help children and young adults with high-risk neuroblastoma that has not responded to treatment or has come back.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 1–31 - NCT06375473Recruiting
Study of irinotecan liposome for pancreatic cancer
This study looks at how well a specific type of chemotherapy called irinotecan hydrochloride liposome works in people with pancreatic cancer. Researchers want to understand its effects in real-world settings, which may help doctors choose the best treatment for patients.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–100 - NCT06321081RecruitingPhase 2
Rechallenge combo for metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (cetuximab, irinotecan, and envafolimab) as a ‘rechallenge’ – meaning if you had good results with cetuximab or irinotecan before, trying them again with a new drug might help shrink or control your cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04361708RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug combo chemotherapy for advanced pancreas and upper GI cancers
This early-phase study tests how safe and workable it is to combine irinotecan with several standard chemotherapy medicines for cancers like pancreatic and other upper GI cancers. It’s mainly looking for side effects and the best way the doses work in people with advanced or metastatic disease.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06219941RecruitingPhase 2
Studying AZD0901 for Claudin18.2-positive advanced solid tumors

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Irinotecan?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 200 recruiting studies that include Irinotecan, 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 Irinotecan 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 Irinotecan 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 Irinotecan or a specific trial is right for you.
