Recruiting studies in Ohio
- NCT06058377RecruitingPhase 3
Adding immunotherapy to chemo for stage II-III breast cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug durvalumab to standard chemotherapy works better than chemo alone for people with hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative breast cancer that is stage II or III and has a high-risk genetic score (MammaPrint High Risk 2).
Centerville, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07391774RecruitingPhase 3
Hormone therapy with or without chemo for early breast cancer
This trial tests whether skipping chemotherapy and using only hormone therapy with a drug called ribociclib works as well as chemotherapy followed by hormone therapy with ribociclib for certain early breast cancers that have a low risk of coming back.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07061964RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy and radiation to save the bladder
This trial tests whether combining immunotherapy and low-dose radiation after chemotherapy can help you avoid bladder removal. It's for people whose muscle-invasive bladder cancer has shrunk significantly after initial treatment.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06498635RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy after surgery for lung cancer with no remaining cancer
This trial tests whether giving immunotherapy (durvalumab) after surgery can help prevent lung cancer from coming back if you already had a complete response to chemo and immunotherapy before surgery. It is for people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer who had no cancer left after treatment.
Canton, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07699991Recruiting
Support program for breast cancer survivors
This study tests a navigation program to help breast cancer survivors get the support services they need after treatment. It is designed for people treated at the Stefanie Spielman Breast Center who may face extra barriers, such as being older, Black, Hispanic, or living in a rural area.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05417308RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Minoxidil for hair loss from breast cancer hormone therapy
This early-phase study tests whether using minoxidil as a lotion (topical) or by mouth (oral) can improve hair loss caused by breast cancer hormone (endocrine) therapy. It may help you keep or regrow hair while continuing your cancer treatment.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05467891RecruitingPhase 2
Ribociclib plus hormone therapy for recurrent breast cancer
This trial tests whether adding ribociclib (a targeted pill) to hormone therapy can control breast cancer that has come back in the breast area or nearby lymph nodes/chest wall. It targets hormone-receptor–positive and HER2-negative tumors to help slow disease after local treatment.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05812807RecruitingPhase 3
Pembrolizumab versus monitoring after triple-negative breast cancer response
This trial checks whether giving pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) after surgery helps people with triple-negative breast cancer reduce the chance of the cancer coming back, compared with close monitoring only. It’s for patients who had no remaining invasive cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus pembrolizumab.
Akron, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06876714RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter vs Longer HER2 Therapy for Breast Cancer with Complete Response
This trial compares 6 months versus 12 months of HER2-targeted therapy for people with HER2+ breast cancer who had a complete response after chemo and trastuzumab. The goal is to see if a shorter treatment is just as effective.
Alliance, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05929768RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter chemo plus immunotherapy without anthracyclines for early TNBC
This Phase 3 trial tests whether a shorter course of chemotherapy plus immunotherapy can work as well as standard treatment for early-stage triple-negative breast cancer. It avoids anthracycline drugs and may help reduce exposure to those medicines if the shorter plan is effective and safe.
Findlay, OhioAges 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.
Akron, OhioAges 40–75 - NCT06632327RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing treatment timing for stage II-IIIB lung cancer
This trial is for people with a certain type of lung cancer (non-small cell lung cancer) that can be surgically removed. It tests whether it is better to receive treatment before or after surgery to remove the cancer.
Beavercreek, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06748222RecruitingPhase 3
Online mindfulness program for breast cancer survivors
This trial tests a 6-week online mindfulness program to help breast cancer survivors manage mild to moderate depression. You may qualify if you finished active treatment within the last 5 years and can use a digital device.
Beavercreek, OhioAges 18–50 - NCT04267848RecruitingPhase 3
Testing immunotherapy with chemo after lung cancer surgery
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy medicine to standard chemotherapy after surgery can improve outcomes for some people with non-small cell lung cancer. It may help by boosting the immune system to reduce the chance the cancer comes back.
Akron, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05535192Recruiting
Telehealth strength exercise to help older women during breast cancer chemo
This study tests whether a supervised at-home (telehealth) strength exercise program can help older women stay strong and keep their chemotherapy on schedule. It’s meant for women who are starting chemotherapy for breast cancer with the goal of cure.
Cleveland, OhioAges 65 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.
Dayton, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04333537RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Sentinel node biopsy versus standard neck surgery for early mouth cancer
This trial compares two ways of checking whether early oral cavity squamous cell cancer has spread to neck lymph nodes. It tests whether sentinel lymph node biopsy can find spread as well as standard neck dissection, while potentially reducing more extensive surgery for some people.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05379153RecruitingPhase 3
Laser treatment for vaginal dryness after breast cancer
This Phase 3 study tests laser therapy to treat bothersome vaginal dryness (with or without pain during sex) in women who have finished breast cancer treatment. If you qualify, you may receive the study laser procedure to see if it improves symptoms compared with standard care.
Columbus, OhioAges 22 years+ - NCT05677802Recruiting
Stress-reduction program for newly diagnosed triple-negative breast cancer
This study tests whether a structured stress-reduction program can help people with newly diagnosed triple-negative breast cancer (stages I–III). The goal is to see if the program is practical and beneficial for patients during treatment.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05984888Recruiting
MIND diet study for women with breast cancer
This study is testing whether a special diet called the MIND diet can help women with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer who are getting treatment. The diet focuses on foods that are good for the brain, like leafy greens and berries.
Columbus, OhioAges 45–75 - 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.
Avon, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06500481RecruitingPhase 3
Proton vs standard radiation for cancer spread to brain/spine lining
This trial compares a newer type of radiation (proton therapy) to standard radiation for people whose breast or lung cancer has spread to the lining of the brain and spinal cord. It aims to see if proton therapy can better control the disease while causing fewer side effects.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06532279RecruitingPhase 2
Testing BMX-001 with chemoradiation for head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding BMX-001 (a drug that may protect healthy tissues) to standard chemoradiation can reduce side effects and improve outcomes for people with head and neck cancer. It's a randomized study, so you would have a 50/50 chance of getting BMX-001 or a placebo.
Akron, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06582615Recruiting
MIND diet for better brain health during breast cancer treatment
This study tests whether a special diet (called the MIND diet) can help with thinking and memory in women being treated for triple negative breast cancer. Participants will receive nutrition coaching and support to see if it improves brain function.

What taking part in a breast cancer stage ii 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.
