Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06475989RecruitingPhase 3
Targeted therapy vs. chemotherapy for thyroid cancer
This trial compares a targeted therapy pill combination (dabrafenib and trametinib) with cabozantinib or chemotherapy for people with a specific type of advanced thyroid cancer (differentiated thyroid cancer) that has a BRAF V600E mutation. It aims to find which treatment works better after previous treatments have stopped working.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07291037RecruitingPhase 3

This trial tests a new drug called datopotamab deruxtecan against a standard chemotherapy (docetaxel) for people with a certain type of advanced lung cancer (non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer) that has already been treated. The new drug targets a protein called TROP2 found on cancer cells, which may help slow or stop the cancer's growth.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05711615RecruitingPhase 1
Low-dose doxorubicin plus peposertib for advanced sarcoma
This Phase 1 trial tests a low dose of a common chemotherapy (liposomal doxorubicin) together with an anti-cancer drug called peposertib. It’s for people with advanced sarcoma that can’t be cured, aiming to find a safe dosing plan and see how well the treatment might work.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07186296Recruiting
Emerald blood test study for new cancer diagnosis
This study is testing a blood test that looks for signs of lung, breast, colorectal, pancreatic, or ovarian cancer. If you have just been told you might have one of these cancers and haven't started treatment yet, this study may be an option to help learn more about your cancer from a simple blood draw.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 45 years+ - NCT06688513Enrolling by invitation

What taking part in a 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.
