Recruiting studies in Pennsylvania
- NCT05278208RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Lutathera for high-grade brain tumors that returned or got worse
This trial tests if Lutathera, a radioactive drug that targets certain tumors, can help children and young adults with high-grade brain tumors or meningiomas that have come back or are growing. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and works.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 4–39 - NCT05553041RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET-MRI scan test for aggressive brain tumors in children
This early-phase study uses a special PET scan plus MRI to help doctors tell apart tumor changes in children with aggressive gliomas. It may help find whether treatment is working or if the tumor is progressing, while also mapping tumor activity in the brain.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1–21 - NCT05555550RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET-MRI scan to study low-grade brain tumors in children
This early-phase study tests how well a special PET-MRI scan (using a radioactive tracer) can find and measure low-grade brain tumors. It may help doctors better track these tumors while you start or continue treatment.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1–21 - NCT05099003RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Selinexor plus radiation for newly diagnosed brain tumors
This trial studies whether adding selinexor to standard radiation can improve outcomes for children and young teens with certain newly diagnosed high-grade brain tumors (including DIPG). It’s designed for specific tumor types and genetic markers, and people must be able to start treatment soon after diagnosis.
Danville, PennsylvaniaAges 1–21 - NCT04732065RecruitingPhase 1
ONC206 for certain brain tumors in children and young adults
This Phase 1 study tests ONC206, a new targeted medicine, for diffuse midline gliomas (DMG) with a specific gene change (H3K27 altered) and for some other recurrent brain/spinal cord cancers. It is designed to find the right dose and see whether it can control or shrink tumors after initial treatment or when the cancer returns.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 2–21 - NCT04870944RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CBL0137 for children with advanced solid or brain tumors
This early-phase study tests CBL0137 in children and teens whose cancer has come back or is not responding to treatment. It is also for some specific hard-to-treat brain tumors, to see if the drug is safe and can work against the cancer.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 1–21 - NCT05538130RecruitingPhase 1
Study medicine for BRAF-mutated advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 trial studies how PF-07799544 works and what dose is safest in people with advanced cancer that has a specific genetic change called BRAF V600. You may receive it alone or with another treatment, depending on the tumor group, to see if it can treat the cancer.

What taking part in a glioma, malignant 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.
