AI matches your cancer tests to possible treatment trials
This trial uses an AI system to help match people with certain cancer types and specific tumor test results (like gene or protein markers) to relevant clinical trials. It may help you and your doctor find studies that fit your cancer biology faster.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT04907643Recruiting
Virtual reality program to reduce stomach-cancer pain
This trial tests whether virtual reality (VR) can improve pain and other day-to-day symptoms in people with certain gastrointestinal cancers. You’d use VR for pain relief while researchers measure how you’re feeling.

Ivonescimab with chemotherapy for advanced stomach or esophagus cancer
This trial tests a new drug called ivonescimab combined with chemotherapy (FOLFOX) for advanced stomach, gastroesophageal junction, or esophageal cancer that is not HER2 positive. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT01684904Recruiting
Proton beam radiation for certain esophagus cancers
This trial studies whether proton therapy can better treat early-to-mid stage esophagus cancer while aiming to reduce side effects to nearby organs. Proton therapy uses a targeted type of radiation, and participants are also checked to be eligible for curative surgery.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02634645Recruiting
Treatment study for Barrett’s pre-cancer or esophageal cancer
This study looks at treatment options for people with Barrett’s esophagus that has progressed to abnormal cell growth (dysplasia) or cancer. It may help doctors compare approaches that use procedures to remove and/or destroy abnormal tissue in the esophagus.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–100 - NCT07277413RecruitingPhase 1
Study of IDE892 for advanced solid tumors with MTAP deletion
This study tests a new drug called IDE892, alone or in combination, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic change (MTAP deletion). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and whether it can shrink tumors.
Santa Rosa, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07602842RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing IDP-001 for advanced solid tumors
This early-stage trial tests a new drug called IDP-001 in people with advanced cancers that have spread or cannot be surgically removed. The study aims to find the right dose and see how well the drug works against various solid tumors.

What taking part in a esophagus cancer 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.
