Recruiting studies in Ohio
- NCT07620574Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Long-Term Study Continuing Cancer Treatment from Previous Trial
This study lets people who were in an earlier Exelixis cancer treatment trial continue receiving the same treatment if it's still helping them. It's designed to see how safe and effective the treatment is over a longer period.
Kettering, OhioAges Any age - NCT07497607RecruitingPhase 2
Lower radiation dose for HPV-positive throat cancer
This trial tests a lower dose of radiation to certain neck areas for people with HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer. The goal is to see if reducing radiation can cause fewer side effects while still curing the cancer.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07278479RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a targeted radiation therapy for small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called MP0712 that delivers radiation directly to cancer cells that have a marker called DLL3. It is for people with small cell lung cancer or other solid tumors that express DLL3, whose cancer has come back after prior treatments.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07166406RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy with or without targeted radiation for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests whether adding a precise, targeted form of radiation (called SBRT) to standard immunotherapy (atezolizumab and bevacizumab) can help people with advanced liver cancer that has spread to the blood vessels or outside the liver. You may be asked to participate in one of two treatment groups to see which approach works better.
Avon, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07109726RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing TER-2013 for advanced tumors with AKT/PI3K/PTEN changes
This trial tests a new drug called TER-2013, alone or combined with another drug (fulvestrant), for people with advanced solid tumors that have specific genetic changes in the AKT/PI3K/PTEN pathway. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.

Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06805825RecruitingPhase 1
Study of NN3201 for advanced cancers with c-Kit
This trial tests a new drug, NN3201, that targets a protein called c-Kit found on some cancer cells. It may be an option for people with certain advanced solid tumors, including GIST, small cell lung cancer, or other c-Kit-positive cancers, who have already tried standard treatments or cannot take them.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06666192Recruiting

Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06418204Recruiting
Cannabis use among cancer patients in community clinics
This study looks at how cancer patients use cannabis (marijuana) and cannabis products to manage symptoms during chemotherapy or immunotherapy. The goal is to learn about the benefits and risks so doctors can better guide patients.
Beavercreek, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06323460RecruitingPhase 2
Less Radiation for HPV Throat Cancer Guided by a Blood Test
This study tests a way to use less radiation for HPV-related throat cancer. Doctors will adjust your treatment based on a simple blood test that tracks cancer DNA, so you may get only the treatment you need.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06195306RecruitingPhase 2
Low dose tamoxifen and omega-3 for breast cancer prevention
This study tests whether low-dose tamoxifen (a breast cancer prevention drug) or omega-3 supplements can lower breast cancer risk in postmenopausal women who are overweight and have a higher chance of getting the disease. The study lasts about 6 months and involves blood draws and a breast fluid test to see how the treatment affects breast cells.
Columbus, OhioAges 45–74 - NCT06084481RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This study tests a new intravenous drug called ABBV-400 in people with certain advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The goal is to see if it can slow or stop tumor growth and to check for side effects.

Study of ficlatuzumab plus cetuximab for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, ficlatuzumab and cetuximab, for people with recurrent or metastatic head and neck cancer that is HPV-negative and has not responded to prior immunotherapy and chemotherapy. It aims to see if this combination can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06029270RecruitingPhase 2
Adding relatlimab to standard immunotherapy for nasopharyngeal cancer
This trial tests whether adding a new drug called relatlimab to the usual immunotherapy (nivolumab) helps people with nasopharyngeal cancer that has returned or spread. You will get standard chemotherapy plus nivolumab first, then if it works, you may be randomly assigned to get nivolumab alone or with relatlimab.

Stress-reduction program for newly diagnosed triple-negative breast cancer
This study tests whether a structured stress-reduction program can help people with newly diagnosed triple-negative breast cancer (stages I–III). The goal is to see if the program is practical and beneficial for patients during treatment.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05422794RecruitingPhase 1
Adding a new drug plus pembrolizumab to standard chemo for TNBC

What taking part in a carcinoma 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.

Common questions
- Are there carcinoma clinical trials in Ohio?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 272 recruiting carcinoma studies with a site in Ohio, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a carcinoma study in Ohio?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Ohio to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Ohio, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a carcinoma trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New carcinoma studies open in Ohio regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
