Bladder cancer trial combining radiation and Sacituzumab
This Phase 1 study tests whether a new bladder-cancer treatment plan—radiation given at the same time as sacituzumab govitecan—can help people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer without starting with traditional chemo/radiation. Because it’s early-stage, the main goal is safety and learning the best way to use this combination to preserve the bladder.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05051722Recruiting
Test DNA blood and tissue markers to detect gynecologic cancers
This study looks for “methylated DNA markers” (special DNA patterns) to help detect endometrial, ovarian, and cervical cancers, and to support doctors around planned procedures. It may help find cancer earlier or better sort out who needs closer treatment.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06661720RecruitingPhase 3
Tivozanib and pembrolizumab after kidney cancer surgery
This trial is testing if adding the targeted therapy tivozanib to the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda) can help prevent kidney cancer from coming back after all known tumors have been removed by surgery.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05040360RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy after surgery for high-risk pancreatic NET tumors
This Phase 2 trial studies whether giving chemotherapy after surgery can lower cancer recurrence risk in people with high-risk pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). It may help you by testing an added treatment after the tumor has been removed.

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.
