It’s for people with small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04671667RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab vs chemo-radiation after surgery for recurrent head/neck cancer
This trial tests whether pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy drug) works better than the usual chemo plus radiation after surgery for cancer that has come back in the head and neck area. It may help reduce cancer returning or spreading by using your immune system, but eligibility depends on how the cancer came back and your prior treatments.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–79 - NCT04665739RecruitingPhase 2
Lutetium Lu-177 for lung carcinoid tumors with somatostatin receptors
This trial tests lutetium Lu 177 dotatate, a targeted radiation treatment, for advanced lung neuroendocrine (carcinoid) tumors that have a specific marker called somatostatin receptors. It may help shrink tumors by delivering radiation directly to cancer cells that “light up” on a special scan.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05010005RecruitingPhase 1
Testing ruxolitinib plus duvelisib for relapsed T-cell lymphoma
This Phase 1 study tests how safe and effective ruxolitinib plus duvelisib are in adults with certain types of mature T-cell lymphomas. You may be considered if your lymphoma has come back or worsened despite prior treatment, and the study checks whether this pill combination can help control the disease.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05142605Recruiting
Grief therapy for parents who lost a child to cancer
This study compares different grief-therapy approaches for parents (and their support people) after they lose a child diagnosed with cancer. It may help if your grief feels especially intense and long-lasting, and you are willing to take part in English telehealth sessions.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05198830RecruitingPhase 2
Adding TRC102 to standard chemoradiation for stage III lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding TRC102 to standard chemotherapy plus radiation can improve outcomes for people with stage III non-squamous, non-small cell lung cancer. It is designed for newly staged patients and aims to help the immune system work better while treating the tumor.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04715178Recruiting
Childhood cancer sample and data registry
This study collects stored samples (like blood or tissue) and health information from people affected by cancer at a young age, including some survivors. The goal is to build a library of specimens and data that researchers can use to better understand childhood and young adult cancers.
Miami, FloridaAges Any age - 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.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05486572Recruiting
Ultrasound or MRI to help prevent liver cancer deaths
This study compares ultrasound scans versus MRI scans to see which one better helps prevent deaths from liver cancer in people with cirrhosis. You may be assigned to one of the two imaging tests and follow-up visits to track whether liver cancer develops or is caught early.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–75 - NCT05317858RecruitingPhase 3
Open the brain’s blood barrier to treat lung cancer brain spots
This trial tests whether using focused ultrasound to temporarily open the brain’s blood barrier—plus standard immune therapy—can better treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread to the brain. It aims to help medicines reach the brain tumor spots more effectively, while still using the usual lung cancer treatment.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–100 - NCT05456841Recruiting
Empathic communication training for lung cancer care
This trial tests whether training healthcare providers in empathetic communication improves their interactions with people receiving lung cancer care. You may be invited because your doctor’s clinic is participating and you meet the patient and language requirements.

Study drug vs standard care for HER2 salivary gland cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests how well ado-trastuzumab emtansine (and compares to two standard treatment options) works for salivary gland cancers that are HER2-positive or HER2-low. It aims to see whether the study drug can control cancer better and with acceptable side effects.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05355701RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for advanced cancers with BRAF changes
This Phase 1 trial studies PF-07799933, a new medicine, in people whose advanced solid tumors have specific BRAF genetic changes. It may help if your cancer has continued to grow after standard treatments, and there may be specific options depending on your cancer type and past therapies.
Miami, FloridaAges 16 years+ - NCT05531786RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Pacritinib for hard-to-treat chronic graft-versus-host disease
This early-phase study tests pacritinib, a targeted medicine, for chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) that hasn’t improved after prior treatments. If you qualify, the goal is to reduce cGVHD symptoms and improve how well you function after a stem cell transplant.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–120 - NCT05361174RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing an IOV-4001 infusion for advanced melanoma or lung cancer
This trial studies how well and how safely an infusion called IOV-4001 works in adults with advanced melanoma or non-small-cell lung cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. It also aims to see what side effects occur and whether the treatment can help control the cancer.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–70 - NCT05451004RecruitingPhase 3
SPECT-CT test to target neck radiation on one side
This study tests whether using a special scan (SPECT-CT) can guide radiation treatment to only the safer/needed side of the neck in people with a one-sided oropharyngeal cancer. It aims to keep cancer control while potentially reducing side effects from unnecessary radiation.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05413850RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Lu-177 PSMA drug study for advanced prostate cancer

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.
