Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT04636710Recruiting
Treatment approach study for stage III inflammatory breast cancer
This study looks at how to best plan local treatments (like surgery and/or radiation) for people with stage III inflammatory breast cancer. It may help doctors refine care plans for this aggressive subtype by studying how patients are treated and what outcomes they have.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05098210RecruitingPhase 1
Personalized vaccine made from your tumor’s new immune targets
This Phase 1 study tests a customized vaccine made from “neo-antigens,” which are new targets found in your tumor. It aims to help your immune system fight certain advanced cancers that have not responded well to prior treatment.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT05115474RecruitingPhase 2
Screening brain MRI study for stage IV breast cancer
This trial checks whether taking screening brain MRI scans in people with stage IV breast cancer helps find brain involvement earlier. It may help guide treatment decisions for those who would otherwise only get brain imaging after symptoms start.
Clearwater, FloridaAges 18 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.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05092373RecruitingPhase 1
Tumor treating device plus targeted or immune drugs for advanced cancers
This Phase 1 study tests whether a tumor treating fields device works better when added to standard cancer drugs. It may help people with advanced solid tumors in the chest or belly, especially when standard treatment didn’t work or can’t be tolerated.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05010109Recruiting
Testing heart safety and fitness during lung cancer chemoradiation
This study looks at how lung cancer treatment affects the heart and whether a “walking test” and blood tests can track heart fitness and injury. It may help by improving how cancer therapy is planned and monitored for heart safety.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05029999RecruitingPhase 1
Test drugs for HER2-negative advanced breast cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a combination of immune-targeting drugs (a CD40 medicine and a substance that helps immune cells act) plus chemotherapy in people with HER2-negative advanced breast cancer that has progressed. It aims to find a safer dose and see whether the treatment can shrink tumors or slow the cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–99 - NCT05035836RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug after early HER2-positive breast cancer surgery
This trial tests zanidatamab, a type of targeted antibody treatment, in people with early-stage HER2-positive breast cancer to see how well it works and how safe it is. Because it’s a single-arm pilot study, everyone in the study gets the drug, and you’ll likely be asked to undergo standard surgery if appropriate.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04968964Recruiting
Monitoring test for CDK4/6 drugs in metastatic breast cancer
This study follows people with hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer who are taking CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment (with or without an added blood test called DiviTum®). The goal is to see how well the standard treatment is working and whether DiviTum® (a serum TK1 activity test) can help guide monitoring.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT04997096Recruiting
Exercise during chemo to prevent weakness from low movement
This study tests whether a structured exercise program during chemotherapy can help prevent physical decline (“immobility,” like getting weaker or moving less) in people with certain ovarian or endometrial cancers. If you’re eligible, you may be guided to exercise while receiving standard chemo, and you’ll have blood tests to track changes.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04991025RecruitingPhase 2
Adding certolizumab to chemotherapy and nivolumab for lung cancer
This study tests whether adding an extra medication, certolizumab, to the usual chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug called nivolumab can help people with early-stage lung cancer before they have surgery. It aims to see if this combination shrinks the cancer more and improves outcomes.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04959474Recruiting
Pre-surgery radiation study with or without calorie restriction
This trial looks at whether a planned calorie-reduction diet before surgery can change how early breast cancer responds to a short course of radiation. It may help people understand if diet could improve outcomes alongside standard pre-surgery treatment.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 40 years+ - NCT04916990Recruiting
Care program for rural adults with several lung and head cancers
This study looks at how to improve care for adults with certain cancers who live in rural areas and may face access problems. It mainly focuses on people receiving cancer treatment at specific Colorado-area hospitals, and who are uninsured or underinsured.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–99 - NCT04891068RecruitingPhase 2
Pre-surgery low-dose azacitidine for high-risk early breast cancer
This trial studies whether giving a low dose of azacitidine before surgery can shrink or control high-risk early breast cancer. It’s meant for adults whose cancer has not yet spread to distant organs.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04886531RecruitingPhase 2
Pre-surgery neratinib plus hormone therapy with trastuzumab
This study tests whether a pre-surgery treatment plan that adds neratinib to hormone therapy and trastuzumab can shrink HER2-positive, ER-positive breast cancer before surgery. It may help patients by improving how much cancer is eliminated at the time of surgery.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04852887RecruitingPhase 3
Testing shorter breast radiation after low-risk hormone breast cancer
This Phase 3 trial studies whether “less intense” radiation can work as well as standard radiation for certain early-stage hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancers that have a low Oncotype DX score. It may help reduce treatment burden while keeping cancer control strong.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 50–70 - NCT04771520RecruitingPhase 2
Avapritinib for tumors with specific KIT or PDGFRA changes
This Phase 2 trial studies avapritinib, a targeted medicine, for people whose cancer has specific KIT or PDGFRA genetic changes. It may help shrink or slow growth of certain advanced cancers, including some brain tumors, when standard treatments have not worked or for specific glioblastoma cases.
