Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04665739RecruitingPhase 2
Lutetium Lu-177 for lung carcinoid tumors with somatostatin receptors
This trial tests lutetium Lu 177 dotatate, a targeted radiation treatment, for advanced lung neuroendocrine (carcinoid) tumors that have a specific marker called somatostatin receptors. It may help shrink tumors by delivering radiation directly to cancer cells that “light up” on a special scan.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT01042379RecruitingPhase 2

Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT03723928Recruiting
Blood test–guided monitoring for metastatic breast cancer treatment
This study checks whether specific blood “tumor marker” levels can help monitor how hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer responds to first-line therapy. It uses regular blood tests (and sometimes scans) to see if this marker-based monitoring is useful and reliable.
Silver Spring, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06479811RecruitingPhase 1
Radioactive drug for advanced neuroendocrine and other cancers
This trial tests a new radioactive drug, [212Pb]VMT-Alpha-NET, that targets a protein on certain cancer cells. It is for people with specific types of advanced cancers that have gotten worse and are not responding to standard treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT03412877RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized immune-cell therapy for advanced metastatic cancers
This trial tests a personalized cell therapy made from your own immune cells, changed to recognize “neoantigens” on cancer cells. It’s designed for people with metastatic (advanced spread) solid cancers or certain other cancers who have tried standard treatments but cancer is still growing.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT06427798RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Radioactive drug for previously treated gut or adrenal tumors
This trial tests a new radioactive drug, [212Pb]VMT-alpha-NET, that targets a receptor found on some tumor cells. It is for people with certain gut or adrenal gland tumors that have already been treated with a similar therapy but are still growing.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05579366RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for advanced ovarian and other solid cancers
This Phase 1/2 trial studies Rinatabart Sesutecan to treat advanced cancers, with special focus on certain ovarian cancer types. It’s meant for people whose cancer has come back or has not responded to prior treatments.
Rockville, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07214532Recruiting
Using a blood test to guide breast cancer therapy
This study tests whether a blood test can help decide when to start additional hormone-blocking therapy for early-stage breast cancer. It aims to see if starting therapy only when the test detects cancer DNA is as effective as giving it to everyone.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06586957RecruitingPhase 1
Study of NKT3964 for advanced solid tumors
This trial is testing an experimental oral drug called NKT3964 for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The drug works by blocking a protein called CDK2, which some cancers need to grow.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07287917RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug combo for advanced breast cancer or melanoma
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (AMXT 1501, DFMO, and standard therapies) for people with advanced solid tumors, specifically breast cancer (ER+ HER2-) or melanoma that has progressed after other treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07524322RecruitingPhase 1
RGT-490 for Advanced Cancers With PIK3CA Mutations
This study tests a new drug called RGT-490 in patients with advanced solid tumors (cancers that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery) that have a specific genetic change called a PIK3CA mutation. The drug is designed to block a protein involved in cancer cell growth.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07454642RecruitingPhase 1
AVA6103 for advanced FAP-positive solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called AVA6103 for certain advanced cancers that show a protein called FAP. It is for people who have already tried other treatments or cannot take them, and aims to see if the drug is safe and helps shrink tumors.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06784752RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a targeted radiation therapy for advanced neuroendocrine tumors
This trial tests a radioactive drug called [177Lu]Lu-DOTA-TATE for people with advanced neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NET) that have grown or spread. The drug targets tumor cells that have a specific receptor (SSTR) and delivers radiation directly to them, aiming to slow or shrink the tumors while limiting damage to healthy tissue.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 12–100 - NCT07287098RecruitingPhase 2
Imlunestrant for premenopausal women with ER+/HER2- early breast cancer
This trial tests a new hormone-blocking pill (imlunestrant) in premenopausal women with early-stage ER+/HER2- breast cancer. Depending on whether you've had prior hormone therapy, the study will see if this treatment works better than standard options.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05748834RecruitingPhase 2
Tucatinib plus Doxil for HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer
This Phase 2 study tests tucatinib (a HER2-targeted pill) plus Doxil (a chemotherapy medicine) to slow or shrink HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer that has been treated before. It may help by targeting HER2 cancer cells more effectively than past treatments alone.
Columbia, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07213791RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new drug for FAP-positive cancers
This trial tests a new drug (LY4337713) for cancers that have a specific protein called FAP on their surface. It may be an option for people whose cancer has continued to grow after standard treatments.

Study of AKY-1189 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new radioactive drug, AKY-1189, for people with solid tumors that have spread or cannot be removed. It may help if other treatments have stopped working.
Glen Burnie, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06790693RecruitingPhase 3
Inavolisib plus hormone therapy for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a new targeted therapy, inavolisib, combined with standard hormone therapy and a CDK4/6 inhibitor for people with a specific genetic mutation (PIK3CA) in their hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer that has not been treated before. It compares this combination to a placebo plus the same standard treatments.
Annapolis, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07391774RecruitingPhase 3
Hormone therapy with or without chemo for early breast cancer
