This trial tests whether giving a higher dose of radiation to the pancreas is safe and effective for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer who have already had chemotherapy without progression.
Franklin, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06900595RecruitingPhase 2
Cabozantinib with immunotherapy for advanced adrenal cancer
This trial tests adding the targeted drug cabozantinib to the immunotherapy cemiplimab for people with advanced adrenocortical carcinoma that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. It checks if the combination works better than cabozantinib alone.
Columbus, OhioAges 12 years+ - NCT06772623RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of telisotuzumab adizutecan plus immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new combination treatment for people with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer who haven't received prior therapy for advanced disease and don't have specific gene changes. The treatment includes an antibody-drug conjugate (telisotuzumab adizutecan) plus an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor) to see if it helps shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06524544RecruitingPhase 3
Pembrolizumab and sacituzumab govitecan for advanced bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination (pembrolizumab and sacituzumab govitecan) against standard treatment for advanced bladder cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery.

Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06470971RecruitingPhase 2
Siltuximab to prevent severe side effects during immunotherapy rechallenge
This trial tests if siltuximab can prevent severe immune-related side effects when patients restart immunotherapy (anti-PD-1/PD-L1) after previous severe side effects. It aims to make rechallenge safer for people with advanced cancer.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06343402RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BBO-8520 for advanced KRAS G12C lung cancer

Test a new pill plus abemaciclib versus standard therapy
This Phase 3 study compares lasofoxifene plus abemaciclib versus fulvestrant plus abemaciclib for ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has an ESR1 mutation. It looks for better tumor control in people whose cancer has progressed on hormone therapy (an aromatase inhibitor) and who meet specific safety and testing requirements.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05422794RecruitingPhase 1
Adding a new drug plus pembrolizumab to standard chemo for TNBC
This trial studies whether adding a new anti-cancer drug (ZEN-3694) and the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab to standard chemotherapy (nab-paclitaxel) can work better for advanced triple-negative breast cancer. It’s testing safety first (Phase 1) and, for some patients, how well the treatment controls the cancer.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05333458RecruitingPhase 2
Atezolizumab plus selinexor for advanced alveolar soft tissue sarcoma
This Phase 2 trial tests whether combining atezolizumab with selinexor can slow or shrink advanced alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) in people age 12 and older. It may help by improving the immune system’s ability to fight the cancer and stopping cancer cell growth signals.
Columbus, OhioAges 12 years+ - NCT05178472Recruiting
Spine radiation plus cement procedure for spine metastasis
This study looks at whether treating certain spine tumors with a cement procedure (vertebroplasty) plus focused radiation can control the cancer and improve quality of life. It is for adults with spine metastases that are not clearly defined and meet specific stability and imaging needs.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04729114RecruitingPhase 1
Safety and dose test of PRL-02 shot for advanced prostate cancer
This Phase 1 study tests how safe PRL-02 depot (an injection) is and finds the best dose for men with advanced prostate cancer. It may help determine a new treatment option for cancers that have spread or are getting worse despite standard care.
Middleburg Heights, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04300556RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing an antibody-drug for advanced certain cancers
This early-phase trial tests a treatment called MORAb-202, an antibody “delivery” drug, to see if it’s safe and can help shrink or control certain advanced cancers. It may help people whose tumors match the study’s specific cancer types and prior treatment history.
Hilliard, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT03424005RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing new drug combinations for advanced breast cancer
This study tests how well and how safely different combinations of cancer drugs work for people with metastatic or inoperable locally advanced breast cancer. It may help by finding a better treatment option and collecting information to guide future care.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07431281RecruitingPhase 3
New drug combo for advanced stomach cancer with CLDN18.2
This trial tests a new drug combination for people with advanced stomach cancer that has not been treated before. It looks at two groups: one with PD-L1 (a protein that helps decide if immunotherapy works), and one without. The treatment includes an antibody-drug conjugate (Sonesitatug Vedotin) plus standard chemotherapy, with or without an immunotherapy drug.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07585266RecruitingPhase 3
New drug velzatinib versus imatinib for untreated GIST
This trial compares a newer cancer drug (velzatinib) with a standard treatment (imatinib) for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) that cannot be surgically removed or have spread. You would receive one of these two drugs to see which works better and is safer.
Canton, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07278479RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a targeted radiation therapy for small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called MP0712 that delivers radiation directly to cancer cells that have a marker called DLL3. It is for people with small cell lung cancer or other solid tumors that express DLL3, whose cancer has come back after prior treatments.

Kettering, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07192432RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for HER2-positive cancer
This trial tests a new gene therapy for people with HER2-positive cancer.

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.
