All recruiting trials (12)
-
Dabrafenib and trametinib for rare cancers with BRAF V600 mutations
This arm tests whether dabrafenib and trametinib can help adults, children, and teens with cancers that have a BRAF V600 mutation.
-
Capmatinib treatment for adults with cancers having MET gene changes
This study is testing if capmatinib, a drug for lung cancer, can help adults with different types of cancers that have changes in the MET gene.
-
Testing UCB4594 for advanced cancer treatment
This study is testing a new drug called UCB4594 to see if it can help treat advanced cancer by targeting a specific protein on cancer cells.
-
Treatment of B-cell malignancies with ALETA-001
This study is testing a new treatment called ALETA-001 to see if it can help people with relapsed non-Hodgkin lymphoma who didn't respond well to previous therapies.
-
Evaluating HTL0039732 for Advanced Solid Tumours
This study is testing a new drug called HTL0039732, alone and with another treatment, to see if it can help people with advanced solid tumors by boosting their immune response against cancer.
-
Combination of trastuzumab and pertuzumab for treating cancers with HER2 mutations
This study is testing if a combination of two cancer drugs, trastuzumab and pertuzumab, can help adults and young people with cancers that have HER2 mutations or amplifications.
-
Entrectinib treatment for patients with ROS1-positive cancers
This study is testing if the drug entrectinib can help people with different types of cancers that have a ROS1 gene fusion, including adults and kids, to see if it works better than what’s currently available.
-
Using atezolizumab to treat cancers with high mutation rates or specific genetic deficiencies
This study is testing if atezolizumab can help treat adults and kids with certain types of cancers that have a lot of genetic changes or specific genetic issues.
-
Alectinib treatment for ALK-positive cancers in adults and children
This study is testing if alectinib, a drug for lung cancer, can help treat different types of ALK-positive cancers in both adults and children.
-
Combination of vemurafenib and cobimetinib for treating BRAF positive cancers
This study is testing if the combination of vemurafenib and cobimetinib can help adults with different types of cancers that have a specific BRAF mutation.
-
Evaluating existing drugs for rare cancers with specific genetic changes
This study is testing if approved cancer drugs can help people with rare cancers or common cancers that have specific genetic changes feel better and live longer.
-
Evaluating TT-702 for advanced solid tumors
This study is testing a new drug called TT-702 to see if it can safely help people with advanced solid tumors, including certain types of prostate cancer and breast cancer, by boosting their immune response.
Quick answers
How many clinical trials run by Cancer Research UK are recruiting right now?
12, as of November 12, 2026. We update this list each time we refresh our data from ClinicalTrials.gov.
Where are these trials running?
All of them have sites in United Kingdom. Each study page lists its sites and which ones are recruiting.
What phases are they in?
Phase 2/3: 8, Phase 1/2: 4. Trials with no phase listed are usually device, behavioural or observational studies.
How do I join one?
Open a study, check the "Is this trial a fit for you?" section, then contact the study team listed on the page. They will ask a few screening questions. Asking is free and does not commit you to anything. Talk it over with your doctor first.
