Recruiting studies near Pittsburgh
- NCT05372640RecruitingPhase 1
Drug combo trial for rare cancers with shared NUT features
This Phase 1 trial tests the safety and early signs of effectiveness of combining two anti-cancer drugs (ZEN003694 and abemaciclib) in teens and adults with metastatic or unresectable NUT carcinoma, breast cancer, and other solid tumors. It may help by finding a safer dose and whether the drug combination can shrink or control tumors that do not respond to standard treatments.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 12 years+ - 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.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06105749Recruiting
Biennial contrast-enhanced mammogram for breast cancer survivors
This study tests whether getting a contrast-enhanced mammogram (CEM) every two years is effective for detecting breast cancer in women who have had breast cancer before. If you qualify, you will receive CEM instead of a standard mammogram to see if it helps find cancer earlier.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 30–79 - NCT06586957RecruitingPhase 1
Study of NKT3964 for advanced solid tumors
This trial is testing an experimental oral drug called NKT3964 for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The drug works by blocking a protein called CDK2, which some cancers need to grow.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06926868RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of a new drug versus chemotherapy for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a new investigational drug called izalontamab brengitecan against standard chemotherapy for people with advanced triple-negative breast cancer who cannot receive immunotherapy. The goal is to see if the new drug works better at shrinking or slowing the cancer.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05877599RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new treatment for advanced cancers with a specific gene change
This trial tests a new type of therapy (NT-175) for people with certain advanced cancers that have a specific genetic change. It might help if your tumor has the TP53 R175H mutation and you have the HLA-A*02:01 immune marker.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04075305Recruiting
Study measuring radiation treatment outcomes with an MR-Linac
This study follows what happens when radiation treatment is guided using an MR-Linac (a special machine that combines MRI imaging with radiation). It may help improve how radiation therapy is planned and assessed, especially for people who can safely have MRI scans.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05564377RecruitingPhase 2
Find targeted cancer treatments using genetic testing
This study matches people with advanced solid tumors to targeted treatment plans based on genetic testing. It also requires tumor sample testing to help doctors choose the most promising therapy for your specific tumor changes.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT07059884Recruiting
Exercise program to help people with cancer stay active
This trial tests a distance-based exercise program designed to help people on chemotherapy maintain their physical function and prevent disability. It is for patients with certain cancers who are working full-time and can participate in moderate physical activity.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07060807RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Patritumab Deruxtecan for Advanced HR+/HER2- Breast Cancer
This trial tests a new drug called patritumab deruxtecan (a targeted therapy) for people with a common type of advanced breast cancer (HR+/HER2-). It's for those whose cancer has grown despite treatment with a CDK4/6 inhibitor plus hormone therapy.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07114601RecruitingPhase 1
Study of LY4257496 for people with GRPR-positive solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, LY4257496, in people with certain types of cancer that have a protein called GRPR on their cells. The study aims to see if the drug can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07214532Recruiting
Using a blood test to guide breast cancer therapy
This study tests whether a blood test can help decide when to start additional hormone-blocking therapy for early-stage breast cancer. It aims to see if starting therapy only when the test detects cancer DNA is as effective as giving it to everyone.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02701244Recruiting
Breast radiation microseed registry for certain early breast cancers
This registry study collects information about people with certain early breast cancer who receive a tiny radiation “microseed” placed in the breast after surgery. It may help doctors understand who benefits and how the treatment is done safely.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 50 years+ - NCT01042379RecruitingPhase 2
Adaptive drug trial for newly diagnosed breast cancer
This study tests personalized, changing treatment plans (given before surgery) to find better options for your specific breast tumor. You may be asked for extra breast-tissue testing to help match you with the most suitable study drug(s).
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04585750RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for TP53 Y220C-mutated advanced cancers
This early-phase study tests PC14586 (rezatapopt) in people with advanced or metastatic solid cancers that carry a specific TP53 mutation called Y220C. It mainly looks at safety and how well the treatment may work, sometimes combined with pembrolizumab.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 12 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.
Bryn Mawr, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
