New York, New YorkAges 70 years+ - NCT04421560RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing pembrolizumab, ibrutinib, and rituximab for PCNSL
This Phase 1/2 study tests how well a combination of pembrolizumab, ibrutinib, and rituximab treats primary CNS lymphoma that came back or didn’t respond after prior brain treatment. It may help shrink the lymphoma and control it in the brain and fluid around the brain.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04291612Recruiting
Observational study of standard surgery for uterine cancer in women
This is a research study that looks at outcomes in women with endometrial (uterine) cancer who receive the usual standard surgery. Researchers will group patients based on the final surgical and pathology results and what additional (if any) treatment is recommended afterward.
Harrison, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04172532RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New targeted drug with radiation for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests adding peposertib, a targeted anti-cancer drug, to standard radiation for people with locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma. It aims to improve control of the cancer after initial chemotherapy and determine whether the combo is safe and effective.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04181060RecruitingPhase 3
Osimertinib alone or with bevacizumab for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether starting osimertinib with or without bevacizumab helps people with advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer live longer and control the cancer better. Your EGFR mutation test result and past treatments are key to whether you can join.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04198766RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New OX40 immunotherapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug (INBRX-106) alone or with Keytruda (pembrolizumab) for adults with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug can help the immune system fight cancer.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 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.
Cooperstown, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03526835RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of MCLA-158 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new experimental drug called MCLA-158 (petosemtamab) for people with advanced solid tumors, especially head and neck cancer or colorectal cancer, that have not responded to standard treatments. The study aims to see if this drug can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Syracuse, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03483337Recruiting
MRI scan tests new markers for head and neck cancers
This trial tests special MRI scans to find warning signs of cancer that has returned or spread in the head and neck area. It may help doctors see these changes more clearly, which could improve treatment planning.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03191149RecruitingPhase 2
Osimertinib for lung cancer with an EGFR exon 20 change
This Phase 2 study tests osimertinib (a targeted lung cancer pill) in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors have an EGFR exon 20 insertion. It aims to see how well osimertinib works for this specific EGFR mutation and how safe it is.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03137095Recruiting
Study how chemotherapy affects brain function in breast cancer
This study looks at changes in thinking and brain function in people with early to locally advanced breast cancer before and during chemotherapy. You may also be offered a brain MRI in a separate optional part of the research to learn more about brain changes.
Rochester, New YorkAges 21 years+ - NCT02926690RecruitingPhase 1
MELK inhibitor safety study for advanced breast cancer
This Phase 1 study tests how safe a drug called an MELK inhibitor is in people with advanced breast cancer that has spread or cannot be removed with surgery. If you qualify, the study is focused on side effects and includes a special group for triple-negative breast cancer.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT02087852Recruiting
Kidney cancer DNA registry for patients and family
This study collects DNA from adults with kidney cancer (or suspected kidney cancer), plus DNA from some family members and healthy controls. It helps researchers understand whether certain genetic changes might be linked to kidney cancer risk.
Commack, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT01742143Recruiting
Helping underserved patients finish cancer treatment and feel better
This study tests a support program (ICCAN) designed to help people from underserved communities better complete chemotherapy or radiation and improve quality of life. It may help by connecting patients with practical resources and support during treatment.
Brooklyn, New YorkAges 21–80 - NCT06340568RecruitingPhase 3
Study of an experimental drug vs. chemo for recurring uterine cancer
This trial is testing an experimental therapy against standard chemotherapy for people with endometrial cancer that has come back. The study looks for a certain protein (HER2) on cancer cells to decide which treatment group you may be in.
Mineola, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04305834RecruitingPhase 2
Abemaciclib plus hormone pills for metastatic breast cancer in older adults
This Phase 2 study tests whether abemaciclib combined with standard hormone (endocrine) therapy can better control metastatic breast cancer in people age 70 and older. It may help if your cancer has already grown despite prior hormone therapy and/or other cancer medicines.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 70 years+ - NCT07872553RecruitingPhase 4
Kidney cancer treatment preference study
This study looks at how kidney cancer patients feel about getting their treatment at home versus at the clinic, and asks their doctors for their views too. It is for patients already on certain standard treatments and aims to understand preferences that may improve care.
Commack, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07388524RecruitingPhase 3
Testing atezolizumab after surgery for early stage lung cancer
This trial tests if the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab can prevent early stage non-small cell lung cancer from coming back after surgery. It is for people whose tumors have high levels of a protein called PD-L1 (50% or more) and do not have certain gene changes (EGFR or ALK).
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06007924RecruitingPhase 2
Study of two drugs for advanced thyroid cancer
This trial tests two oral medications, avutometinib and defactinib, for people with advanced thyroid cancer that has specific genetic changes. The goal is to see if these drugs can shrink tumors or slow their growth.

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.
