Recruiting studies near Charlotte
- NCT06545331RecruitingPhase 1
A study of XB010 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an investigational drug called XB010 for people with solid tumors that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see if XB010 is safe and effective for several cancer types, including lung, breast, head and neck, and esophageal cancers.
Huntersville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07807956RecruitingPhase 1
Intravenous study drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an investigational drug given through an IV to see if it can help people with advanced solid tumors. It aims to learn about side effects, how the drug works in the body, and whether it can slow or shrink the cancer.
Huntersville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07218003Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Study of RNDO-564 alone or with pembrolizumab for bladder cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug, RNDO-564, either by itself or combined with another drug (pembrolizumab), for people with advanced bladder cancer or other solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.

Huntersville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05005403RecruitingPhase 1
Testing azirkitug for lung, head/neck, and other solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests how a new medicine (azirkitug) behaves in the body and how safe it is, given by IV infusion alone or with other cancer drugs. It may help people with several advanced solid tumor cancers, especially after standard treatments have stopped working.
Huntersville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07030257RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of CP-383 for advanced solid tumors
This study tests a new drug called CP-383 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth, especially for certain cancers with genetic changes.
Huntersville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06751329RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of DM002 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called DM002 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The drug targets two proteins (MUC1 and HER3) found on some cancer cells, and may help shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Huntersville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06993844RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of ETX-636 for advanced solid tumors with PIK3CA mutation
This trial tests an experimental drug called ETX-636 in people whose cancer has a specific gene change (PIK3CA mutation) and has not responded to at least one prior treatment. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink tumors or stop them from growing.
Huntersville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07263594RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of DB-1324 for advanced stomach or bowel cancers
This trial tests a new drug called DB-1324 for people with advanced gastrointestinal cancers that have stopped responding to standard treatments. It targets a protein called CDH17 on cancer cells to slow or shrink the tumor.
Huntersville, North CarolinaAges 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.
Gastonia, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07143487Recruiting
Family communication after genetic testing for colon cancer
This trial studies how patients with newly diagnosed colon cancer share genetic test results with their family members. It aims to improve communication and support after learning about hereditary risk.
Gastonia, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT04871542Recruiting
Predicting risk of immune therapy side effects
This study tries to predict who is more likely to get serious side effects from immune checkpoint medicines used for solid tumors. You may help researchers by answering questionnaires before treatment and during follow-up, and by possibly storing sample specimens.
Gastonia, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05642611RecruitingPhase 3
Cooling and compression for nerve protection during chemotherapy
This study tests whether using cooling and/or compression on the arms or legs can prevent nerve damage that can happen from certain chemotherapy drugs. If you get eligible chemo soon, this may help lower the chance of painful numbness or tingling during treatment.
Gastonia, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - 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.
Gastonia, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT03723928Recruiting
Blood test–guided monitoring for metastatic breast cancer treatment
This study checks whether specific blood “tumor marker” levels can help monitor how hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer responds to first-line therapy. It uses regular blood tests (and sometimes scans) to see if this marker-based monitoring is useful and reliable.
Gastonia, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06252649RecruitingPhase 3
Study of new drug combo for KRAS G12C colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (sotorasib, panitumumab, and FOLFIRI) against the standard treatment for colorectal cancer that has spread. It's for people whose tumor has a specific KRAS G12C mutation and who have not had chemotherapy before for advanced disease.
Rock Hill, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05059444Recruiting
Blood test to catch cancer early after treatment
This study looks for signs of cancer left in the body after treatment using a simple blood test (called a liquid biopsy). It aims to see if the test can catch cancer that might come back earlier than regular scans.
Rock Hill, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07459634RecruitingPhase 2
Combination treatment for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—lurbinectedin and durvalumab—for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer who have already received initial treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the cancer better.
Rock Hill, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06635954Recruiting
Blood test to predict response to immunotherapy
This study is testing a blood test (Episwitch CiRT®) that looks at your DNA to see if it can predict whether you will respond to a type of immunotherapy called PD-(L)-1 checkpoint inhibitors. The goal is to see if this test is accurate across many different types of cancer.
Rock Hill, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06388967Recruiting
Pancreatic cancer detection study
This study is looking at blood or tissue samples from people with pancreatic cancer and from those without it. The goal is to find ways to detect the cancer earlier.
Rock Hill, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05920356RecruitingPhase 3
Tested KRAS-targeted sotorasib plus chemo vs pembrolizumab plus chemo
This Phase 3 trial tests whether sotorasib plus standard chemotherapy works better than pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) plus standard chemotherapy as first treatment for certain advanced lung cancers. It may help people whose tumors have a KRAS G12C mutation and that do not show PD-L1 on testing.

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.
