- NCT06714357RecruitingPhase 2
Valproic Acid to Boost Anti-EGFR in Colorectal Cancer
This trial tests whether adding valproic acid to standard anti-EGFR plus irinotecan can stop or reverse resistance in metastatic colorectal cancer. It is for patients who previously responded well to an anti-EGFR drug and then progressed.
Caserta, CEAges 18 years+ - NCT06250972RecruitingPhase 3
Radiotherapy for advanced pancreatic cancer with normal CA19-9 after chemo
This trial tests whether giving radiotherapy to the pancreas can help people with advanced pancreatic cancer whose CA19-9 level has dropped to normal after chemotherapy. It's for patients whose cancer is still locally advanced (hasn't spread to distant organs).
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06662786RecruitingPhase 3
Amivantamab plus chemo vs. standard chemo for left-sided colorectal cancer
This trial compares a new combination (amivantamab plus chemotherapy) with the standard treatment (cetuximab plus chemotherapy) as the first therapy for people with left-sided colorectal cancer that has spread. The goal is to see which approach works better when the tumor has no mutations in the KRAS, NRAS, or BRAF genes.

Study of SHR-A1904 for gastric cancer with CLDN18.2
This trial tests a new drug called SHR-A1904 against standard treatments for people with advanced stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has already been treated once. It is for those whose tumors are positive for a protein called CLDN18.2.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06644781RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Ifinatamab Deruxtecan for advanced esophageal cancer
This trial tests a new drug, Ifinatamab Deruxtecan, for people with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma that has worsened after standard treatments. It aims to see if it can help shrink or slow the cancer.

Second-line therapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy with either bevacizumab or cetuximab as a second-line treatment for advanced colorectal cancer. It aims to find which option works better for patients whose first treatment failed.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06528496RecruitingPhase 2
Less chemo plus antibody therapy for high-risk neuroblastoma in children
This study tests whether giving fewer chemotherapy drugs along with other targeted therapies (monoclonal antibodies) works well for children with high-risk neuroblastoma. It aims to reduce side effects while still treating the cancer effectively.
New York, New YorkAges 1.5 years–19 years - NCT06401330RecruitingPhase 3
Personalized treatment for pediatric Wilms tumor
This study tailors treatment for children with Wilms tumor based on specific tumor features and risk factors. The goal is to give the right amount of therapy to each patient to minimize side effects while maintaining high cure rates.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 30 years - NCT05381038RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized azacitidine combinations for breast or stomach cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests different combinations that include azacitidine, chosen based on your tumor’s lab “response markers” and past drug-sensitivity screening. It aims to find safer dosing and see whether these personalized combinations can shrink solid tumors such as breast or stomach cancer.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - NCT06208657RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized cancer therapy for kids and teens
This trial tests personalized cancer treatments for children and teens whose cancer has not responded to standard therapy. It uses information from precision medicine studies to match the right drug to each child's tumor.
Newcastle, New South WalesAges birth–21 years - NCT06172296RecruitingPhase 3
Dinutuximab plus transplant for high-risk neuroblastoma
This trial tests adding a targeted drug called dinutuximab to standard chemotherapy, surgery, and a stem cell transplant for children and young adults with a new diagnosis of high-risk neuroblastoma. The goal is to see if this combination helps more patients stay in remission.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 30 years - NCT04656041RecruitingPhase 2
Test chemo with radiation for gastroesophageal cancer
This Phase 2 study tests a combination of chemotherapy (5-FU/leucovorin plus irinotecan and oxaliplatin) together with radiation for certain types of esophagus/stomach-junction cancer. It may help shrink tumors and control cancer that is locally advanced but not spread to distant organs.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05999994RecruitingPhase 2
Testing new drugs for children and young adults with cancer
This trial tests several experimental drugs for children and young adults with cancer. It aims to find safe and effective treatments by matching participants to one of several drug studies based on their cancer type and health.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1–39 - NCT05929885RecruitingPhase 2
Genotype-guided chemo for metastatic pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a chemo plan that includes different drugs and adjusts the irinotecan dose based on a patient’s genetic test (UGT1A1). It’s designed for people with pancreatic cancer that has spread or cannot be removed with surgery.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - NCT05863195RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a liver pump with standard chemo for colorectal cancer that spread to the liver
This trial tests whether adding a special chemotherapy pump implanted in your liver (hepatic arterial infusion) to standard chemotherapy works better than standard chemotherapy alone for people whose colorectal cancer has spread only to the liver and cannot be removed by surgery. The pump delivers high doses of chemo directly to the liver to shrink tumors and possibly control the disease longer.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05800587RecruitingPhase 2
Reduced-dose chemotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial studies a lower (reduced) dose of chemotherapy in people with advanced lung cancer who may not tolerate standard treatment. It aims to see if the treatment still works while being safer for “compromised” patients.

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.
