Comparing a new drug combo for advanced lung cancer with a specific gene change
This trial tests a new drug called Navlimetostat combined with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy versus a placebo with the same standard treatments. It is for people with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific missing gene (MTAP deletion) and who have not had prior treatment for their advanced disease.
Hawthorne, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07076485RecruitingPhase 2
Shorter radiation after surgery for node-positive breast cancer
This trial tests shorter radiation schedules for people with breast cancer that has spread to lymph nodes or is high-risk. It aims to find a shorter course of radiation that is just as effective after surgery.
Voorhees Township, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05758688RecruitingPhase 2
Proton radiation after surgery for uterine or cervical cancer
This trial studies whether proton beam radiation after surgery can better treat certain uterine (endometrial) or cervix (cervical) cancers. It may help by targeting the pelvic area while limiting radiation to nearby organs.
Voorhees Township, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06919965RecruitingPhase 3
TAR-210 vs. standard bladder chemo for high-risk bladder cancer
This trial compares a new drug called TAR-210, given directly into the bladder, to standard chemotherapy for people with a specific type of high-risk bladder cancer that has not invaded muscle. It tests if TAR-210 can be more effective with fewer side effects.
Voorhees Township, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06116682RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted treatment for MET-positive advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a targeted therapy for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer whose tumors have extra copies of the MET gene. It's for those whose cancer has progressed after at least one prior treatment.
Voorhees Township, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT02945579Recruiting
Testing skipping breast surgery or radiation for top responders
This trial studies whether some people with early-stage breast cancer who respond extremely well to hormone/chemo/targeted treatment can safely skip breast surgery and/or radiation. It aims to reduce side effects without increasing cancer risk in carefully selected patients.
Voorhees Township, New JerseyAges 30 years+ - NCT06593431RecruitingPhase 3
Treating limited spread pancreatic cancer with local therapy
This trial tests whether combining local treatments (like radiation or surgery) with standard care can help people with pancreatic cancer that has spread to only a few spots (oligometastatic disease). The goal is to improve outcomes for this specific group of patients.
Voorhees Township, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT01577251Recruiting
Cancer patients on radiation can join a registry
This study builds a registry and blood/tissue sample collection for people who have cancer or a non-cancer growth (benign tumor) and are receiving radiation. It helps researchers learn from real-world treatment and biology, which may improve future care.
Voorhees Township, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06357533RecruitingPhase 3
New drug combo for advanced lung cancer with high PD-L1
This trial tests a new two-drug combination (Dato-DXd and an immunotherapy called rilvegostomig) as the first treatment for people with advanced non-squamous lung cancer who have high PD-L1 levels. The goal is to see if this combination works better than current standard options.
Voorhees Township, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06122077Recruiting
Blood test for early lung cancer detection in smokers
This trial tests a blood test that looks for multiple signals to find lung cancer early. If you are a smoker or former smoker over 50, this test might help detect cancer before you have symptoms.
Stamford, ConnecticutAges 50 years+ - NCT07190248RecruitingPhase 3
Calderasib plus other treatments for advanced non-small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called calderasib (MK-1084) combined with other treatments for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be surgically removed. It aims to see if this combination works better than current options.
Stamford, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - 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.
Stamford, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - 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.
Stamford, ConnecticutAges 29–85 - NCT04468061RecruitingPhase 2
Study chemo drug plus immunotherapy for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests sacituzumab govitecan (an antibody-drug medicine) with or without pembrolizumab (an immune-system therapy) in people with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer. It may help by shrinking tumors and improving immune control, especially for patients with specific tumor marker results.
Stamford, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT04802759RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing drug combinations for recurrent or advanced ER-positive breast cancer
This early-phase trial tests several combinations of cancer medicines to slow or control ER-positive breast cancer that has returned or progressed. It also checks safety and whether tumor or blood biomarkers can help match the right treatment to the right person.
Freehold, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04329494RecruitingPhase 1
Study of targeted drug delivery into the abdomen using PIPAC
This Phase 1 trial tests PIPAC, a way to deliver anti-cancer medicine directly into the abdomen using a minimally invasive procedure. It is for people with peritoneal spread from certain cancers to see whether this approach is safe and potentially helpful.

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.
