Recruiting studies near Nashville
- NCT06465199RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Eflornithine and AMXT 1501 for Advanced Childhood Cancers
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (eflornithine and AMXT 1501) for children and young adults with certain types of cancer that have relapsed or not responded to standard treatment, or for a specific brain tumor (DIPG) at diagnosis. The goal is to see if this drug pair is safe and effective.
Nashville, TennesseeAges Up to 26 years - NCT05916313RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for brain tumors that have stopped responding to treatment
This trial tests a new drug called BI 764532 for people with a type of brain tumor called glioma that has not gotten better with standard treatments. The drug targets a protein on the tumor cells, which might help stop the tumor from growing.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - 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.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 1–21 - NCT06326411RecruitingPhase 1
Testing NST-628 pills for advanced solid tumors with RAS/MAPK changes
This trial tests an experimental pill called NST-628 for people with advanced solid tumors that have specific genetic changes in the RAS/MAPK pathway. The goal is to see if it is safe and effective when other treatments are no longer working.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07210632RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Nivolumab dye imaging in high grade glioma surgery
This trial tests if a special dye attached to the immunotherapy drug nivolumab can help surgeons see tumor cells during surgery for high grade glioma. You may join if you are scheduled for surgery and your organs are working well.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06860594RecruitingPhase 1
Triapine plus radiation for recurrent brain tumors
This trial tests whether adding an experimental drug called triapine to a second round of radiation therapy can help treat brain tumors that have come back after initial treatment. It may be a good option for people with recurrent glioblastoma or astrocytoma who meet safety criteria.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT04166409RecruitingPhase 3
Selumetinib versus chemo for low-grade brain tumor in children
This trial studies whether the targeted drug selumetinib works better than standard chemotherapy (carboplatin and vincristine) for children and young adults with a specific type of low-grade glioma (grade 1 or 2). It may help shrink tumors and slow growth while comparing side effects between the two treatment approaches.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 2–21 - NCT05355701RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for advanced cancers with BRAF changes
This Phase 1 trial studies PF-07799933, a new medicine, in people whose advanced solid tumors have specific BRAF genetic changes. It may help if your cancer has continued to grow after standard treatments, and there may be specific options depending on your cancer type and past therapies.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 16 years+ - NCT05303519RecruitingPhase 3
Safusidenib for IDH1-mutant glioma after main treatment
This Phase 3 trial tests safusidenib, a targeted medicine, to help stop or slow the return of certain brain tumors with an IDH1 mutation. It focuses on people after initial treatment (surgery and/or radiation and temozolomide), aiming to improve outcomes during maintenance therapy.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - 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 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.
