HER3-DXd for advanced solid tumors after prior treatment
This trial tests a new targeted drug called HER3-DXd for people with several types of advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The drug is an antibody-drug conjugate, designed to deliver chemotherapy directly to cancer cells that have a protein called HER3 on their surface.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03866382RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus a targeted drug for rare genitourinary tumors
This Phase 2 study tests whether nivolumab and ipilimumab (immunotherapy drugs) plus cabozantinib (a targeted anti-cancer drug) can shrink or control rare cancers of the urinary/reproductive system that have spread. It may help by boosting the immune system and blocking cancer growth signals at the same time.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05649306Recruiting
Surveys for coping and sexual health in bladder cancer survivors
This study asks women with bladder cancer to complete questionnaires about how they cope emotionally and about sexual health. It may help researchers understand what support survivors need and improve survivorship care.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06525571RecruitingPhase 3
Blue light surgery for high-risk bladder cancer
This trial tests if using blue light during surgery helps remove all cancer in people with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. It may lower the chance of the cancer coming back.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05792722Recruiting
Testing a prostate-sparing bladder surgery for bladder cancer
This trial studies whether a “prostate-sparing” radical cystectomy is safe and effective for bladder cancer patients who are having surgery. It aims to see if this approach can treat bladder cancer while reducing prostate-related side effects.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05312671RecruitingPhase 2
Atezolizumab plus chemo for small cell bladder cancer
This trial studies whether a drug called atezolizumab combined with chemotherapy (etoposide and a platinum drug) can shrink or control small cell bladder cancer. It may help by boosting the immune system against the cancer while the chemotherapy treats fast-growing cancer cells.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03193970Recruiting
Study recovery after bladder removal surgery
This trial looks at how patients recover after radical cystectomy, a surgery that removes the bladder for bladder cancer. It will study recovery patterns to help understand what recovery may look like and possibly improve care.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06995677RecruitingPhase 2
TYRA-300 pill for low-grade bladder cancer with FGFR3 change
This study tests an experimental pill called TYRA-300 for people with low-grade bladder cancer that hasn't spread into the muscle layer. The pill targets a specific gene change (FGFR3) found in the tumor. The goal is to see if it can slow or shrink the cancer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT02993900Recruiting
Brachytherapy guided by imaging for gynecologic cancers
This study tests image-guided internal radiation (brachytherapy) for certain gynecologic cancers. It may help deliver radiation more precisely by using scans done close to enrollment.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT06637423RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of sacituzumab tirumotecan for low-grade bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug called sacituzumab tirumotecan for people with low-grade bladder cancer that hasn't spread into the bladder muscle. The goal is to see if it can help shrink or control the tumors.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07218380RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Vepugratinib for advanced bladder or urinary tract cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug called Vepugratinib for people with advanced urinary tract cancer that has a specific change in the FGFR3 gene. It may be an option if you haven't had other treatments for advanced cancer and are looking for a new approach.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT02660645Recruiting
Blue light bladder scan for suspected bladder cancer
This trial uses a special blue-light camera during a bladder procedure to help doctors better see non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer. It may help find cancer spots more clearly so they can be treated sooner.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05656235RecruitingPhase 2
Study of keeping kidneys longer in upper tract bladder cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether a combination treatment can control high-grade upper tract urothelial cancer without removing the kidney and ureter (radical nephroureterectomy). It may help people who must avoid surgery or choose not to have it because of medical risk.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05614739RecruitingPhase 1
Study of vepugratinib for cancers with FGFR3 gene changes
This study tests a new pill, vepugratinib, for people whose cancer has a specific change in a gene called FGFR3. The drug targets this gene change to try to slow or shrink the cancer, and may be an option if standard treatments have not worked.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05334069Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection in patients
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 40–75 - NCT07000084RecruitingPhase 3
Testing gemcitabine with BCG for returning bladder cancer
This trial tests whether adding a chemotherapy drug called gemcitabine to the usual BCG therapy can help prevent bladder cancer from coming back again. If you have had BCG before and your cancer returned, this study might offer a more effective treatment option.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06929286RecruitingPhase 3
Gene therapy vs standard care for bladder cancer after BCG fails
This trial compares a gene therapy (nadofaragene firadenovec) against standard care for people with an early-stage bladder cancer that has not responded to BCG. The goal is to see if this treatment is more effective and possibly helps avoid bladder removal.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 21 years+ - NCT07225205Recruiting
Home IV fluids after bladder removal surgery
This trial tests if giving IV fluids at home after bladder removal surgery is safe and helpful. It aims to reduce dehydration and hospital visits after you go home.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07514143Recruiting
Bladder Cancer Detection Study Using Urine Test
This study tests a new urine-based test called EpiCheck to help detect bladder cancer. You'll provide urine samples before or during a bladder procedure you're already scheduled to have, and researchers will see how well the test works.

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.
