The ABTA Clinical Trial Finder helps patients and caregivers learn about and find brain tumor clinical trials in a way that is easy to use and understand.

ABTA Clinical Trial Finder

The trials listed below come from ClinicalTrials.gov, a website managed by the National Library of Medicine, a department of the Federal government. Trials are added and updated by the people and organizations running the studies. The ABTA cannot guarantee that all the information is accurate or current. Please contact the trial coordinators listed in each study for the most up-to-date details.

Instructions & FAQs

You can use these filters to search for trials based on:

  • Tumor type
  • Geographic location
  • Age group
  • Keywords

Tip: Start by entering your diagnosis or the name of your city

Some trials are marked as “Featured.” These are paid listings from medical centers or companies. These listings are sponsored and do not imply ABTA endorsement or preference. They have been “Featured” by the trial sponsor to heighten your awareness of their existence.

The Clinical Trial Finder pulls data from ClinicalTrials.gov. While the information comes from a trusted source, it may not always be complete or up to date. We are not responsible for inaccurate, missing, or outdated trial information, or if a patient is ineligible or unable to join a trial.

The ABTA does not recommend nor endorse any specific clinical trials.

Always talk with your doctor before joining a clinical trial. Your healthcare team can help you weigh the risks and benefits.
