Cooling and compression for nerve protection during chemotherapy
This study tests whether using cooling and/or compression on the arms or legs can prevent nerve damage that can happen from certain chemotherapy drugs. If you get eligible chemo soon, this may help lower the chance of painful numbness or tingling during treatment.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05651594RecruitingPhase 2
Propranolol with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy for esophageal cancer
This trial tests whether adding propranolol (a common blood-pressure/heart medicine) can improve outcomes when used with pembrolizumab plus standard chemotherapy. It is for people with advanced esophageal or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma that cannot be removed with surgery.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 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.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05640843Recruiting
Plant-based diet study for MGUS or smoldering myeloma
This trial tests whether a whole-food, plant-based eating pattern—plus supplements or placebo—can improve health outcomes in people with MGUS or smoldering multiple myeloma. You may be asked to follow specific recipes and stop certain supplements, so it helps to confirm you can stick with the plan.
Commack, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05641831RecruitingPhase 2
Canakinumab to prevent clonal blood count problems turning into cancer
This Phase 2 study tests canakinumab to help stop high-risk clonal cytopenias of unknown significance (CCUS) from progressing into a blood cancer. If you have persistent low blood counts and specific genetic features, this treatment may lower the chance of progression.

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.
