Testing a new drug combo for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new drug called RBS2418 added to two immunotherapy medicines (tremelimumab and durvalumab) for people with advanced liver cancer that cannot be removed by surgery.

Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06112314RecruitingPhase 3
New immunotherapy combo for advanced melanoma (first treatment)
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug (IMC-F106C) combined with standard treatments against the usual nivolumab-based therapy for people with advanced melanoma who have not been treated before.

Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06380751RecruitingPhase 3
New targeted therapy for BRCA/PALB2-mutated HR+ breast cancer
This trial tests a new combination of targeted therapies (saruparib plus camizestrant or hormone therapy) against standard treatments for people with a specific type of advanced breast cancer. It may be a good option if you have a BRCA1, BRCA2, or PALB2 gene mutation and have not yet had treatment for your advanced disease.
Chattanooga, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06129864RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Volrustomig for advanced head and neck cancer after chemoradiation

Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT04929223RecruitingPhase 1
Targeted drug study for metastatic colon or rectal cancer
This Phase 1 study tests targeted cancer treatments in people with metastatic colorectal cancer, using genetic “biomarker” results to match you to the right treatment group. It focuses first on safety, and also looks for early signs the treatment may work in specific tumor subgroups.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05156060RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gabapentin and ketamine to treat head and neck cancer pain
This early-phase study tests whether gabapentin and a ketamine nasal spray can help prevent or lessen short-term and long-term pain from locally advanced head and neck cancer. It may help by changing how the nervous system responds to pain during and after radiation and chemoradiation.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 21 years+ - NCT05549297RecruitingPhase 3
Tebentafusp plus choice of treatment for advanced melanoma
This Phase 3 study compares tebentafusp treatment against the doctor’s choice of standard options in people with previously treated advanced melanoma. It aims to see which approach works better for controlling the cancer and improving outcomes.
Knoxville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05624996RecruitingPhase 3
Targeted high-dose radiation added to standard lung cancer treatment
This trial tests whether adding high-dose, targeted radiation to the usual treatment helps people with locally advanced, non-operable lung cancer live longer or better control the cancer. It may help shrink tumors in the chest and improve outcomes when surgery can’t be done.
Collierville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06118086RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of REM-422 for advanced adenoid cystic carcinoma
This trial tests an experimental drug called REM-422 for people with adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) that has spread, come back, or cannot be removed by surgery. The study has two parts: an early part for people with advanced ACC and a later part for those with a specific genetic change (MYB biomarker) in their tumor. The goal is to see if REM-422 can slow or stop cancer growth.

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.
