Recruiting studies in Ohio
- NCT06096844RecruitingPhase 3
Chemotherapy plus immunotherapy vs. immunotherapy alone for older adults with lung cancer
This study compares getting both chemotherapy and immunotherapy versus immunotherapy alone for older adults with advanced lung cancer. The goal is to see which approach is more effective and tolerable for people aged 70 and older.
Avon, OhioAges 70 years+ - NCT06102902RecruitingPhase 1
New drug added to chemotherapy for BRAF-mutated colorectal cancer
This trial combines a new drug called ZEN003694 with two standard chemotherapy drugs (cetuximab and encorafenib) to see if it can help people with a specific type of colorectal cancer that has the BRAF V600E mutation. This mutation makes the cancer grow, and the new drug targets it, potentially making the treatment more effective.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06070012RecruitingPhase 2
Tebentafusp for untreated metastatic uveal melanoma
This trial tests a new drug called tebentafusp for people with uveal melanoma that has spread to other parts of the body and who have not yet received any treatment for the metastatic disease. It requires a specific genetic marker (HLA-A*0201) and focuses on whether the drug can shrink or slow the growth of tumors.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05078970Recruiting
Teen suicide intervention study for high-risk times
This study tests a suicide intervention approach for teens who are having suicidal thoughts or behaviors and are currently in an emergency or hospital setting. It may help you and your care team better support teens during the most risky period.
Columbus, OhioAges 11–17 - NCT06055608RecruitingPhase 2

Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05961982Recruiting
EUS-guided heat treatment for pancreatic cysts
This study tests whether an endoscopy-based “radiofrequency ablation” (controlled heating) can manage certain pancreatic cysts that look high-risk. It’s designed for people who are not good candidates for surgery, aiming to shrink or control the cyst safely.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05957367RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for advanced GIST tumors with specific gene mutations
This early-phase study tests inlexisertib (a targeted cancer drug) combined with other anticancer treatments in adults with advanced GIST. It is mainly looking for safety and the best way to dose, and it may help tumors that have certain KIT or PDGFRA gene changes.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05920356RecruitingPhase 3
Tested KRAS-targeted sotorasib plus chemo vs pembrolizumab plus chemo
This Phase 3 trial tests whether sotorasib plus standard chemotherapy works better than pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) plus standard chemotherapy as first treatment for certain advanced lung cancers. It may help people whose tumors have a KRAS G12C mutation and that do not show PD-L1 on testing.
Dayton, OhioAges 18–100 - NCT05849662RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Trametinib plus azacitidine for newly diagnosed JMML
This trial studies whether trametinib and azacitidine can control juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) soon after diagnosis. It’s designed to test safety and how well the treatment works in children and young adults who meet specific leukemia and genetic criteria.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 1 month–21 years - NCT05832229RecruitingPhase 2
Liver cirrhosis network rosuvastatin trial
This study tests whether the drug rosuvastatin, a cholesterol-lowering medicine, can improve liver health in people with cirrhosis. If you have compensated cirrhosis (no recent serious liver problems), you might be able to join.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–75 - NCT05642572RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug combinations for EGFR- and MET-changed lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests combinations of targeted medicines to treat advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has changes in both EGFR and MET genes. It is for people whose cancer continued to grow even after treatment with osimertinib, the most recent therapy.
Canton, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05455619RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted drugs for PI3K-altered, HR+/HER2- breast cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests how well a combination of targeted medicines works for advanced or returning HR+/HER2- breast cancer that has a PI3K pathway change (such as PIK3CA, PTEN, or AKT1). It may help by blocking growth signals in the cancer and is especially for people whose cancer has progressed after hormone therapy and a CDK4/6 inhibitor.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05443126RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new RET drug for advanced lung cancer
This Phase 1/2 study tests lunbotinib, a new medicine that targets a specific lung-cancer change called RET. It aims to see how well it works and how safe it is for adults with advanced RET-altered non-small cell lung cancer.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05433142RecruitingPhase 1
XmAb 819 for advanced kidney cancer and other solid tumors
This Phase 1 trial tests a new drug called XmAb 819 to treat advanced clear cell kidney cancer and other cancers that have grown despite standard treatments. It mainly looks at safety and how the body responds, with the goal of finding signs the drug can work.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05378347Recruiting

Cleveland, OhioAges 20 years+ - NCT05253651RecruitingPhase 3
Tucatinib plus trastuzumab with chemo for HER2+ metastatic colon cancer
This trial tests whether adding tucatinib and trastuzumab to standard chemotherapy works better than standard treatment alone for people with HER2-positive metastatic colon or rectal cancer. It aims to improve how long people live and how well tumors respond as first treatment for advanced disease.
Canton, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05142189RecruitingPhase 1
Testing BNT116 for advanced non-small cell lung cancer

Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05080673Recruiting
Colonoscopy planning for small, noncancerous colon polyps
This trial tests whether people with 1–2 small, noncancerous colon polyps should get their next colonoscopy after 5 years or after 10 years. It may help reduce unnecessary procedures or find cancers earlier if the shorter interval is safer for you.
Cleveland, OhioAges 45–70 - NCT05071144Recruiting
Registry for children getting robotic spine surgery
This trial registry collects information about kids and teens with spine deformities who are scheduled for robotic or navigation-assisted surgery (sometimes using custom rods). It may help doctors improve these advanced techniques over time.
Cleveland, OhioAges birth–21 years - NCT05136846RecruitingPhase 1
Papaverine with chemoradiation for stage II–III lung cancer
This early-phase trial tests whether adding papaverine to standard chemoradiation can improve treatment for stage II–III non-small cell lung cancer (and some limited stage IV cases). It aims to see if the combination is safe and tolerable while targeting the cancer with radiation and chemotherapy.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04981509RecruitingPhase 2
Check if 3 medicines help advanced kidney cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether combining bevacizumab, erlotinib, and atezolizumab can shrink or control advanced kidney cancer. It’s aimed at people with certain kidney-cancer subtypes (including HLRCC-related cases or papillary kidney cancer) and who have not had many prior targeted or immune treatments.
Columbus, OhioAges 12 years+ - NCT04606914RecruitingPhase 2
Carboplatin plus mirvetuximab for advanced ovarian cancer after chemo
This Phase 2 study tests adding mirvetuximab to carboplatin for people with advanced, high-grade serous ovarian cancer who will first receive “neoadjuvant” chemotherapy. It is designed for tumors that strongly show FRα, which mirvetuximab targets, to see if this improves outcomes.

What taking part in a advanced or metastatic solid tumors study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
