Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03191149RecruitingPhase 2
Osimertinib for lung cancer with an EGFR exon 20 change
This Phase 2 study tests osimertinib (a targeted lung cancer pill) in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors have an EGFR exon 20 insertion. It aims to see how well osimertinib works for this specific EGFR mutation and how safe it is.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05656235RecruitingPhase 2
Study of keeping kidneys longer in upper tract bladder cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether a combination treatment can control high-grade upper tract urothelial cancer without removing the kidney and ureter (radical nephroureterectomy). It may help people who must avoid surgery or choose not to have it because of medical risk.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04251052Recruiting
Compare two surgeries to lower ovarian cancer risk in BRCA1 carriers
This study compares two risk-reducing surgery plans for people with a BRCA1 genetic change to see which approach helps lower ovarian cancer risk. You may be asked to have the study procedure sooner or later depending on your chosen plan.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 35–50 - NCT05649306Recruiting
Surveys for coping and sexual health in bladder cancer survivors
This study asks women with bladder cancer to complete questionnaires about how they cope emotionally and about sexual health. It may help researchers understand what support survivors need and improve survivorship care.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06124157RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted therapy plus chemo for children with Ph+ or Ph-like B-ALL
This trial tests if adding a targeted drug (dasatinib or imatinib) to a chemotherapy combination with blinatumomab works better for children and young adults with a specific genetic form of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The goal is to see if this approach can improve treatment outcomes for patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive or ABL-class Ph-like B-ALL.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 1 year–46 years - NCT03517579Recruiting
Personalized treatment for Graves and certain thyroid cancers
This trial tests a personalized approach to treat thyroid disorders, either Graves’ disease or certain thyroid cancers that may need radioactive iodine treatment. It may help by matching treatment to your specific test results and needs.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 21–65 - NCT04614103RecruitingPhase 2
Immune cell therapy for advanced lung cancer after chemotherapy
This trial studies LN-145, a treatment made from your own immune cells, for metastatic (stage IV) non-small-cell lung cancer. It may help shrink tumors after your cancer has progressed despite standard first-line chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–70 - NCT05827081RecruitingPhase 3
Ribociclib plus endocrine therapy for early breast cancer
This trial studies whether adding ribociclib to standard hormone (endocrine) therapy lowers the risk of breast cancer coming back in early-stage, hormone-receptor–positive cancer. It mainly looks at safety and how well the treatment controls cancer after surgery and (sometimes) prior hormone treatment.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT05646316RecruitingPhase 3
Sentinel lymph node mapping to reduce leg swelling after surgery
This study tests whether a special way of finding lymph nodes during hysterectomy can lower the risk of long-term leg swelling or related dysfunction in people with stage I endometrial cancer. It compares standard lymph node assessment with sentinel lymph node mapping and looks at how this affects day-to-day leg functioning.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03151629Recruiting
Registry for men with advanced prostate cancer
This study is a worldwide registry that collects health information from men with advanced prostate cancer. It may help researchers better understand disease patterns and outcomes, which can guide future treatments.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 21 years+ - NCT03452774Recruiting
AI matches your cancer tests to possible treatment trials
This trial uses an AI system to help match people with certain cancer types and specific tumor test results (like gene or protein markers) to relevant clinical trials. It may help you and your doctor find studies that fit your cancer biology faster.
Baltimore, MarylandAges Any age - NCT02474160Recruiting
Banking cancer tissue and blood for future research
This study collects and stores leftover or newly taken samples of tissue and blood from people with cancer. The goal is to build a research library that can help investigators study cancer and develop better tests or treatments.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 2 months+ - NCT06389097Recruiting
SPECT Scans to Improve Treatment for Advanced Cancer
This study uses special scans (SPECT imaging) to see how radium or lutetium treatments move through your body, helping doctors plan better doses. It's for people with advanced prostate cancer (getting Radium-223) or advanced neuroendocrine tumors (getting 177Lu treatments).
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT07349537RecruitingPhase 1
Study of RMC-5127 for advanced KRAS G12V-mutant solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called RMC-5127 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific KRAS G12V mutation. The study aims to see if this targeted therapy can help when other treatments have stopped working or caused side effects.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06508138Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
HPV vaccine study for healthy relatives of patients
This trial tests two experimental vaccines to boost the immune system against HPV 16. Healthy relatives of patients with HPV 16 cancer receive the vaccines, then donate blood cells for research.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–70 - NCT06890338RecruitingPhase 2
Carboplatin and mirvetuximab for advanced ovarian cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy (carboplatin) and a targeted drug (mirvetuximab soravtansine) given through a vein. It is for people with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has a specific protein called folate receptor alpha (FRα) on at least 75% of tumor cells.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04892303RecruitingPhase 1
Planning treatment using radiation plus radioactive iodine for thyroid cancer
This Phase 1 study tests how doctors plan a combination of two radiation approaches—external beam radiation and radioactive iodine—for thyroid cancer that is not fully responding to standard treatment. It may help people who still have iodine-avid tumor spots, but whose iodine uptake looks too low to work well with radioactive iodine alone.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–85 - NCT06426628Recruiting
Nasal swab test for lung nodule risk
This trial tests a new nasal swab test to help doctors better understand your risk if you have a small lung nodule. The test looks at cells from your nose to give more information about whether the nodule might be cancer, without needing a biopsy right away.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 29–85 - NCT06998940RecruitingPhase 3
Chemotherapy with or without panitumumab for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests whether adding a targeted drug called panitumumab to standard chemotherapy can help people with a certain type of pancreatic cancer that has spread. It is for patients whose tumors do not have a KRAS mutation and who have already had one line of chemotherapy.

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.
