Gainesville, FloridaAges 18–100 - NCT06047379RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing NEO212 for brain tumors and metastases
This trial tests a new drug called NEO212 for people with certain brain tumors (like astrocytoma or glioblastoma) or cancer that has spread to the brain from other parts of the body. The goal is to see if it is safe and if it can help shrink or control the tumors.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03564340RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing ubamatamab alone or with cemiplimab for ovarian and MUC16+ cancers
This early-phase study tests ubamatamab, a cancer-targeting antibody, given by itself or with cemiplimab. It is meant to treat adults whose cancer has come back and who may not have other good standard options left.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT03702309Recruiting
Banking and testing blood samples to study cancer
This study collects blood samples to “test and store” (bank) information that may help doctors understand cancer in the future. You might be able to join if you’re an adult with confirmed cancer or a higher-than-usual risk for cancer.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT03755739RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Checkpoint cancer drug given into or near tumors
This trial studies whether giving immunotherapy “checkpoint inhibitor” medicine directly into the tumor area (and/or the artery feeding it), along with a chemotherapy-style drug, can work better for advanced solid tumors. It aims to boost the immune system’s ability to attack cancer while still being safe for people with measurable tumors.
Guanzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT04169763RecruitingPhase 1
Nelfinavir with chemo and radiation for vulvar cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests whether adding nelfinavir to standard chemo (cisplatin) and external-beam radiation can treat locally advanced vulvar cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. It’s designed to check safety and how well the treatment can work for this situation.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04273061RecruitingPhase 2
Atezolizumab for tumors that look sensitive on DNA/RNA testing
This Phase 2 study tests atezolizumab, an immunotherapy drug, in people with advanced, incurable solid tumors whose tumor DNA/RNA suggests they may respond. The goal is to see if the treatment works better for patients selected by these lab results.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04553770RecruitingPhase 2
Trastuzumab deruxtecan with or without anastrozole for early breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether trastuzumab deruxtecan alone or combined with anastrozole can control early-stage breast cancer that is HER2-low and hormone-receptor positive. It aims to improve outcomes after initial surgical treatment by targeting cancer cells that may have low levels of HER2.
Fullerton, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04701645RecruitingPhase 1
Microdevice study for advanced ovarian or related cancers
This Phase 1 study tests a tiny implanted device placed in the abdomen to help evaluate or treat advanced ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer. If you qualify, you’d also have additional tests and surgery as part of your usual care plan.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04892953RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab plus focused radiation for progressing stage III lung cancer
This trial studies adding focused radiation to some cancer spots in people with stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose cancer did not fully stop after standard chemoradiation and durvalumab. The goal is to control a small number of growing spots (or more than a few) and improve outcomes after durvalumab.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04914026Recruiting
MicroRNA test for testicular cancer diagnosis
This study looks at tiny genetic signals called microRNAs to see if they can help identify or track testicular cancer. It may help doctors recognize testicular cancer more accurately and decide what to do next.
BergenAges 18–70 - NCT04916990Recruiting
Care program for rural adults with several lung and head cancers
This study looks at how to improve care for adults with certain cancers who live in rural areas and may face access problems. It mainly focuses on people receiving cancer treatment at specific Colorado-area hospitals, and who are uninsured or underinsured.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–99 - NCT04947254RecruitingPhase 2
Add niraparib to hormone therapy after prostate radiation
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding niraparib to standard hormone therapy (androgen ablation) after radiation works better for men with high-risk, localized or locally advanced prostate cancer. It may help control the cancer for longer, while also collecting extra tissue and blood to study why the treatment works or doesn’t.
Houston, TexasAges 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.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04997096Recruiting
Exercise during chemo to prevent weakness from low movement
This study tests whether a structured exercise program during chemotherapy can help prevent physical decline (“immobility,” like getting weaker or moving less) in people with certain ovarian or endometrial cancers. If you’re eligible, you may be guided to exercise while receiving standard chemo, and you’ll have blood tests to track changes.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05406167Recruiting
