Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05950464RecruitingPhase 1
Dose study of two targeted drugs for recurrent ovarian cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests different doses of two study drugs (M1774 and ZEN-3694) for recurrent ovarian cancer and some recurrent endometrial cancers. It aims to find a safe dose and see how well the treatment works, especially in cancers with certain tumor features.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05863195RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a liver pump with standard chemo for colorectal cancer that spread to the liver
This trial tests whether adding a special chemotherapy pump implanted in your liver (hepatic arterial infusion) to standard chemotherapy works better than standard chemotherapy alone for people whose colorectal cancer has spread only to the liver and cannot be removed by surgery. The pump delivers high doses of chemo directly to the liver to shrink tumors and possibly control the disease longer.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05833867RecruitingPhase 1
Bladder cancer trial combining radiation and Sacituzumab
This Phase 1 study tests whether a new bladder-cancer treatment plan—radiation given at the same time as sacituzumab govitecan—can help people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer without starting with traditional chemo/radiation. Because it’s early-stage, the main goal is safety and learning the best way to use this combination to preserve the bladder.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05803382RecruitingPhase 1
Adding a new drug to capecitabine for metastatic colorectal cancer
This Phase 1 study tests a new anti-cancer drug (ZEN003694) added to the usual chemotherapy capecitabine. It is for adults with colorectal cancer (and possibly other cancers) that has spread or cannot be removed and has continued despite prior standard treatment.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05691465RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation drug for metastatic prostate cancer with neuroendocrine cells
This Phase 2 study tests whether a radioactive medicine called lutetium Lu 177 dotatate is safe and effective for metastatic prostate cancer that has neuroendocrine features. It also checks whether patients’ scans show the cancer absorbs the drug (a requirement to start treatment).
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05562830RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study for bladder or urinary tract cancer after PD-1 failure
This Phase 1/2 study tests investigational cancer treatment(s) in people with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer that has not responded to PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy. It may help by trying a new approach after prior checkpoint treatment has stopped working or the cancer returns.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05536141RecruitingPhase 1
Study of AB521 for kidney cancer and other solid tumors
This early-stage trial tests AB521, alone and in combination with other medicines, in people with advanced solid tumors—especially clear cell kidney cancer. It aims to find a safe dose and see whether the treatment could help shrink tumors or control the disease.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05521698RecruitingPhase 1
Bicalutamide for early-stage bladder cancer
This trial tests whether the drug bicalutamide can help men with early-stage (non-invasive) bladder cancer, which has not grown into the bladder muscle. It is given before surgery to see if it can reduce the chance of the cancer coming back. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive bicalutamide or a placebo before their scheduled surgery.

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.
