Recruiting studies near Miami
- NCT06500455RecruitingPhase 3
Standard vs longer radiation for brain metastases
This trial compares the usual short course of radiation therapy (one session) to a longer course (up to 5 sessions) for people with cancer that has spread to the brain. The goal is to see if the longer course works better and causes fewer side effects.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06991101RecruitingPhase 2
Ruxolitinib with radiation and chemo for new glioblastoma
This trial tests adding ruxolitinib, a targeted drug, to the standard radiation and chemotherapy for newly diagnosed glioblastoma. It aims to see if this combination helps people live longer without their cancer growing.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06253871RecruitingPhase 1
Study of IAM1363 for HER2 Cancers
This trial tests a new oral drug called IAM1363 for people with HER2-altered cancers that have stopped responding to previous treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how well it works against these cancers.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06741085RecruitingPhase 2
Radiosurgery plus standard care for lung cancer spread to brain
This trial tests if adding stereotactic radiosurgery (focused radiation) to standard drug therapy is safe and effective for people with EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain. It aims to improve control of brain metastases while continuing targeted therapy.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07357298RecruitingPhase 3
Brain MRI surveillance for stage IV breast cancer
This trial tests whether regular brain MRI scans can help detect brain metastases early in patients with stage IV breast cancer who do not yet have any known brain metastases. The goal is to see if early detection improves outcomes.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05681195RecruitingPhase 2
Zanubrutinib plus pemetrexed for recurrent brain lymphomas
This trial tests zanubrutinib (a targeted lymphoma medicine) together with pemetrexed (chemotherapy) for lymphoma that has come back or did not respond well in or around the brain. It may help shrink measurable lymphoma and improve control of disease after prior treatments.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07326566RecruitingPhase 2
Silevertinib and chemo for a type of glioblastoma
This trial tests a new drug, silevertinib, combined with temozolomide (a chemotherapy) for people with a newly diagnosed glioblastoma that has certain genetic markers. It aims to see if this combination works better than standard treatment for tumors with these specific features.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05554302RecruitingPhase 2
PET scan study for brain metastases after surgery
This trial studies how well a special PET scan tracer (18F-fluciclovine) shows amino-acid changes in brain metastases after they are surgically removed. It may help improve how doctors detect and understand brain metastases and guide follow-up treatment like targeted radiation (SRS).
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03550391RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery-like brain radiation vs avoiding the memory center
This trial compares two ways of giving radiation to the brain for people with 5 or more brain metastases: focused stereotactic radiosurgery, or a whole-brain approach that tries to spare the memory area (with memantine). It aims to see which method better protects thinking and memory while still treating the tumors.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06176261RecruitingPhase 2
Datopotamab deruxtecan for breast cancer with brain spread
This trial tests a new drug called datopotamab deruxtecan for people with HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread to the brain. It looks at how well the drug works against brain metastases.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05432804RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Selinexor added to temozolomide for recurring brain glioblastoma
This trial studies whether adding selinexor to the standard chemotherapy temozolomide (with radiation) can better treat glioblastoma that has come back after prior treatment. If you meet specific tumor, health, and lab requirements, the goal is to slow tumor growth or improve symptoms.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04511013RecruitingPhase 2
Trial for BRAF-mutant melanoma spread to the brain
This Phase 2 study tests whether a 3-drug plan (encorafenib + binimetinib + nivolumab) works better than ipilimumab + nivolumab for melanoma that has spread to the brain. If you qualify, you’ll get either treatment and have frequent brain scans to track how well it controls the tumors.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05317858RecruitingPhase 3
Open the brain’s blood barrier to treat lung cancer brain spots
This trial tests whether using focused ultrasound to temporarily open the brain’s blood barrier—plus standard immune therapy—can better treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread to the brain. It aims to help medicines reach the brain tumor spots more effectively, while still using the usual lung cancer treatment.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–100 - NCT05366881Recruiting
Blood test study to spot early cancer signal and cancer leftovers
This observational study checks whether a blood test (a “cfDNA” test) can detect early signs of cancer or small amounts of cancer left after treatment. It may help doctors use a simple blood sample to improve cancer detection and follow-up.
Miami, FloridaAges 40 years+ - NCT06048094RecruitingPhase 1
PET scan study for brain metastases treated with radiosurgery
This trial tests a special PET scan (18F-fluciclovine) to see how well it shows brain metastases after stereotactic radiosurgery (a precise form of radiation). It may help doctors better understand treatment effects.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04689048RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a brain scan tracer for large, staged brain metastases
This Phase 1 study tests an injected radioactive tracer (18F-fluciclovine) to improve how doctors image and assess large brain metastases. It may help guide treatment when you’re receiving staged stereotactic radiosurgery (focused radiation in steps).
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04804644RecruitingPhase 3
Memory-sparing radiation for brain metastases in small cell lung cancer
This study tests whether focusing high-dose radiation only on brain tumor spots, while avoiding the hippocampus (a brain area important for memory), helps protect memory and thinking compared with standard whole-brain radiation. It’s for people with small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03418961RecruitingPhase 3
Study of heart-risk management for metastatic HER2 breast cancer
This trial follows people with metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer who are at higher risk for heart damage while on HER2-targeted therapy. Some participants are randomly assigned to different monitoring/heart-protection approaches to see what best helps keep the heart safe.
Miami Beach, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07587957Recruiting
Exercise and Brain Stimulation for Breast Cancer Survivors
This study tests whether combining exercise with a noninvasive brain-stimulation technique (tiny electrical pulses on the scalp) can help improve thinking and memory problems that some breast cancer survivors experience after treatment. Researchers want to see if this combination is practical and safe to use.
Boca Raton, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06047379RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing NEO212 for brain tumors and metastases
This trial tests a new drug called NEO212 for people with certain brain tumors (like astrocytoma or glioblastoma) or cancer that has spread to the brain from other parts of the body. The goal is to see if it is safe and if it can help shrink or control the tumors.

What taking part in a brain cancer 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.
