Recruiting studies near Riverside–San Bernardino
- NCT06462365RecruitingPhase 1
Preventing GvHD after stem cell transplant for blood cancers
This trial tests a new way to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), a common complication after a stem cell transplant. It is for people with certain blood cancers who are getting a stem cell transplant from a half-matched family member or unrelated donor.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07219147RecruitingPhase 1
Combination treatment for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a combination of two treatments for advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy. One treatment is a targeted radiation therapy (177Lu-PSMA-617) and the other is an immunotherapy (sipuleucel-T) that helps your immune system fight the cancer.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05967689RecruitingPhase 2
Zipalertinib for lung cancer with EGFR exon 20 mutations
This Phase 2 trial tests zipalertinib (a targeted pill) in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has specific EGFR mutations, especially “exon 20 insertions.” It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth, including in some people with brain metastases.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07255729Recruiting
Blood Test for Colon Cancer Staging
This study looks at a new blood test that may help doctors better understand how far colon cancer has spread. By testing a sample of your blood (taken before surgery), researchers hope to find patterns that predict the stage of cancer and help guide treatment decisions.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05672108RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo delivered into lung tumors using a catheter
This trial studies a treatment that delivers chemotherapy directly to lung tumors by placing a catheter into lung blood vessels. It may help people with lung cancer or lung metastases that are growing despite standard treatment, or who cannot tolerate it.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07594106RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New immunotherapy for advanced prostate or kidney cancer
This trial tests new experimental drugs (REGN15505 and REGN4336) designed to target and attack cancer cells in advanced prostate cancer or kidney cancer. These drugs work by boosting your immune system to recognize and destroy cancer, and may be combined with other approved immunotherapy drugs.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04981119Recruiting
Test apheresis for CAR T manufacturing in HLA-A2 solid tumors
This trial studies how a process called apheresis is used to make CAR T cells for people with certain solid tumors. It is designed for tumors that have lost a specific immune marker (HLA-A*02), which may affect how well CAR T therapies work.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04752826RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
A new drug combo for advanced cancers
This trial tests a new experimental drug, BI-1808, alone or with an approved cancer drug called pembrolizumab (Keytruda). It's for people with advanced cancers that have stopped responding to standard treatments.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06532279RecruitingPhase 2
Testing BMX-001 with chemoradiation for head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding BMX-001 (a drug that may protect healthy tissues) to standard chemoradiation can reduce side effects and improve outcomes for people with head and neck cancer. It's a randomized study, so you would have a 50/50 chance of getting BMX-001 or a placebo.
Buena Park, CaliforniaAges 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.
Buena Park, CaliforniaAges 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.
Monrovia, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06342440Recruiting
Early detection of colon cancer and advanced polyps
This study aims to find colorectal cancer and advanced polyps (adenomas) earlier by looking at blood samples. Researchers hope a simple blood test might one day help detect colon cancer before it spreads.
Monrovia, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06314958Recruiting
Follow-up after colorectal cancer treatment
This study follows people who have finished treatment for stage II (high-risk) or stage III colorectal cancer and are now cancer-free. Researchers want to learn more about which factors might predict if the cancer will come back, so they can better personalize follow-up care.
Monrovia, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06708429Recruiting
Lynch syndrome and gut immune system study
This study looks at how the immune system interacts with the gut lining in people with Lynch syndrome and those without. It may help us better understand how Lynch syndrome affects the body.
Monrovia, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06207032Recruiting
Cancer biobank registry study
This study collects blood samples and health information from people diagnosed with cancer to build a research database. It may help future patients by enabling better understanding and treatment of cancer.
Whittier, CaliforniaAges 18–99 - NCT01954992RecruitingPhase 3
Glufosfamide vs 5-FU for metastatic pancreatic cancer after gemcitabine
This study compares two chemotherapy drugs—glufosfamide and 5-FU—in people with pancreatic cancer that has spread and got worse after gemcitabine. It aims to see which option works better as a “second-line” treatment.
Whittier, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04986423RecruitingPhase 2
Add ZEN003694 to enzalutamide for resistant prostate cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding ZEN003694 to enzalutamide works better than enzalutamide alone in men whose prostate cancer has spread and is no longer controlled by hormone lowering treatments. It focuses on people who either did not respond well to abiraterone (poor responders) or did respond (responders), then compares outcomes between treatment groups.
Whittier, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06562543RecruitingPhase 4
Fruquintinib for advanced colorectal cancer in minority populations
This trial tests a medication called fruquintinib (an oral pill) for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has not responded to prior treatments. It is specifically looking for participants who identify as Black or African American and/or Hispanic or Latino to help understand how the drug works in these groups.
Whittier, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07211178Recruiting
Tracking cancer DNA in blood to detect early return of breast cancer
This study tracks tiny traces of cancer DNA in the blood over time to see if it can find early signs of breast cancer coming back. It looks at different types of breast cancer and at different points in a patient's treatment journey.
Whittier, CaliforniaAges 18–99 - NCT06885034RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for advanced bowel or pancreatic cancer
This trial is testing an experimental drug (GSK5764227) either alone or with other treatments for people with advanced colon, rectal, or pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective for these cancers.
Whittier, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07743164RecruitingPhase 3
Raludotatug deruxtecan for PARP-inhibitor-resistant ovarian cancer
This trial tests a new drug called raludotatug deruxtecan (with or without bevacizumab) for people with ovarian cancer that has grown despite PARP inhibitor maintenance treatment. The goal is to see if this drug can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Fountain Valley, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07492641RecruitingPhase 3
A new drug plus letrozole for advanced HR+ breast cancer
This trial tests a new medicine (BGB-43395) combined with letrozole against the usual CDK4/6 inhibitor plus letrozole. It is for people with advanced or metastatic HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer who have not yet had treatment for advanced disease.
Fountain Valley, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06380751RecruitingPhase 3
New targeted therapy for BRCA/PALB2-mutated HR+ breast cancer
This trial tests a new combination of targeted therapies (saruparib plus camizestrant or hormone therapy) against standard treatments for people with a specific type of advanced breast cancer. It may be a good option if you have a BRCA1, BRCA2, or PALB2 gene mutation and have not yet had treatment for your advanced disease.
Fountain Valley, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05234177Recruiting
Blood test to track colorectal cancer after surgery
This study looks at a blood “DNA” test to see if it can help monitor colorectal cancer after surgery. It may benefit you by improving how doctors track cancer during routine follow-up visits.
