This trial tests a new drug called SIM0505 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The study looks at different cancer types, including ovarian cancer, kidney cancer, uterine cancer, and lung cancer, to see if SIM0505 can help shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07043608RecruitingPhase 2
Zanzalintinib for kidney cancer that spread to bone
This trial tests a new drug called zanzalintinib for people with advanced clear cell kidney cancer that has spread to the bones (at least 3 spots). The study wants to see if this drug can help slow down or shrink the cancer. It's for patients who have already had some prior treatments.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05460000RecruitingPhase 2
Niraparib after early ovarian cancer chemo—short vs long
This trial tests whether taking niraparib (a maintenance anti-cancer pill) for a shorter time after 3 cycles of platinum chemotherapy works as well as taking it after 6 cycles. It is for people with advanced ovarian cancer that has been fully removed (no visible tumor) and is “HRD-positive,” meaning it has certain DNA repair weaknesses.
InnsbruckAges 18 years+ - NCT06942104RecruitingPhase 1
New imaging agent for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new imaging agent (18F-TRX) to see if it can better detect cancer spread in people with advanced solid tumors. It is designed for patients with specific cancers like high-grade brain tumors, advanced kidney cancer, or prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05256225RecruitingPhase 3
Adding Herceptin medicines to chemo for HER2-positive endometrial cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding Herceptin Hylecta or Phesgo to standard chemotherapy works better than chemotherapy alone for HER2-positive serous endometrial cancer or carcinosarcoma. It may help by improving how well treatment controls or shrinks the cancer.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT03786796RecruitingPhase 2
Olaparib for metastatic kidney cancer with specific DNA repair gene changes
This trial tests olaparib (a pill medicine) in people with kidney cancer that has spread and specific DNA “repair” gene mutations. The goal is to see whether this targeted treatment can slow the cancer or help it respond better after prior immunotherapy or blood-vessel–blocking therapy.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT07028125RecruitingPhase 4
Digital symptom tracking for kidney cancer treatment
This trial tests whether tracking your symptoms with a digital app can help manage side effects while you receive two medications (cabozantinib and nivolumab) for advanced clear-cell kidney cancer that hasn't been treated before.
AnnecyAges 18 years+ - NCT07564232RecruitingPhase 1
LNK001 for Advanced Kidney Cancer After Prior Treatments
This Phase 1 trial tests a new cell therapy called LNK001 in patients with advanced clear-cell kidney cancer that has progressed despite prior immunotherapy and targeted drugs. The therapy is designed to recognize and attack cancer cells by targeting a protein called CAIX.
Houston, TexasAges 18–70 - NCT04053855Recruiting
Check urine for kidney cancer signals before or after surgery
This study looks for tiny substances in urine (called exosomes) to see if they can help identify clear cell kidney cancer. It compares urine samples from people having planned kidney surgery with people having surgery without a scheduled plan.
Saint-EtienneAges 18 years+ - NCT04510597RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy plus surgery versus immunotherapy alone for kidney cancer
This study tests whether adding surgery to remove the kidney improves outcomes compared with continuing immunotherapy without surgery. It is for people with metastatic kidney cancer whose disease has not worsened after initial immunotherapy.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04575935RecruitingPhase 3
Minimally invasive surgery after chemotherapy for advanced ovarian cancer
This trial studies whether doing surgery using smaller incisions after chemotherapy works as well as a more traditional approach for certain people with stage IIIC–IV ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. It may help reduce surgical trauma while aiming for effective tumor removal.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04623502Recruiting
Study of kidney and bladder cancer metabolism during surgery
This study looks at how kidney and bladder (urothelial) tumors use fuel by taking samples during surgery or biopsy. It may help researchers learn what drives these cancers and guide better future treatments.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04977453RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug GI-101 alone or with immune or blood-pressure meds
This early-phase study tests GI-101 in people with advanced solid cancers. It may be given alone or combined with pembrolizumab or lenvatinib to see how safe it is and whether it can shrink tumors.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04989959RecruitingPhase 1
PET/CT scan test in kidney cancer and related conditions
This Phase 1 study tests whether a special PET/CT scan drug ([18F]PT2385) can help doctors see kidney cancer and related tumors. It may help guide diagnosis and treatment decisions, especially in people planning surgery or starting belzutifan.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05039801RecruitingPhase 1
Study drug IACS-6274 tested for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 study tests the experimental drug IACS-6274, sometimes with bevacizumab and paclitaxel, in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It aims to find the safest dose and to learn whether the treatment can shrink or control cancer for certain tumor mutation types.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05059444Recruiting
Blood test study to watch for cancer coming back
This study looks at whether blood tests can detect signs that cancer may return after curative-intent treatment. You would have blood drawn around your usual follow-up visits for up to 5 years, and your de-identified health data would be shared with study investigators.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05086692RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Beta-only IL-2 therapy for advanced solid tumors

San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05155033RecruitingPhase 2
A trial of PD-1 plus aldesleukin for melanoma or kidney cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether combining anti–PD-1 treatment with aldesleukin can shrink or control metastatic melanoma or metastatic kidney (renal cell) cancer. It is mainly for people who have either not had anti–PD-1 before, or whose cancer did not respond to prior anti–PD-1 treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05214885Recruiting
Study biomarkers in kidney cancer and healthy people
This study looks at blood or body measures called “biomarkers” to understand how lack of oxygen and body energy changes in clear cell kidney cancer. It compares people with kidney cancer to carefully matched healthy volunteers to see what patterns might help improve understanding or future care.
JinanAges Any age - NCT05231122RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab and bevacizumab for recurrent ovarian cancer
This trial studies whether adding pembrolizumab to bevacizumab (and sometimes an anti-CD40 drug) can help control recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. It also looks at whether the treatment can shrink tumors and keep them from growing for longer.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05263050RecruitingPhase 2
Trial tests a new cabozantinib schedule for kidney and neuroendocrine tumors
This Phase 2 study tests a different dosing schedule of cabozantinib (a cancer medicine) for metastatic kidney cancer and certain neuroendocrine tumors. It aims to see if the timing and schedule can work well for people with advanced disease.
