Study of a new drug for advanced bladder and other solid tumors
This study tests a new drug (LY4052031) for people with several types of advanced solid tumors, especially bladder cancer. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective when given alone or after other treatments have stopped working.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07200830RecruitingPhase 3
Testing different schedules of a targeted radiation drug for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests two different dosing schedules of a drug called Lutetium-177 PSMA RLT, which delivers radiation directly to prostate cancer cells. It is for men with advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy and has spread, who have not yet had chemotherapy for this stage of the disease.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06632327RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing treatment timing for stage II-IIIB lung cancer
This trial is for people with a certain type of lung cancer (non-small cell lung cancer) that can be surgically removed. It tests whether it is better to receive treatment before or after surgery to remove the cancer.
Beavercreek, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06931340RecruitingPhase 3
Adding chemo to hormone therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial is for men with metastatic prostate cancer that has already spread beyond the pelvis. It tests whether adding a chemotherapy drug (docetaxel) to the usual hormone therapy plus apalutamide can help control the cancer better than hormone therapy alone.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07293247RecruitingPhase 2

Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06632977RecruitingPhase 2
Matching targeted treatments to your prostate cancer's genetics
This trial is testing whether matching your cancer's specific genetic changes to a targeted treatment can help control metastatic prostate cancer that has stopped responding to standard hormone therapy and chemotherapy. You may receive a drug, a radioactive treatment, or a combination based on your tumor's molecular profile.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06868277RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two drugs for first-line treatment of advanced lung cancer

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 274 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.
