Study drug for advanced solid tumors with limited treatments left
This Phase 1 study tests PYX-201 in people with advanced (grown or spread) solid cancers to see if it is safe and how it works. You may qualify if your cancer has had up to a couple of prior treatments and you can safely take study medicines and undergo required testing like a tumor biopsy.

Pembrolizumab and sacituzumab govitecan for advanced bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination (pembrolizumab and sacituzumab govitecan) against standard treatment for advanced bladder cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It's for people who have already tried an immunotherapy drug like pembrolizumab and another drug called enfortumab vedotin.
Worcester, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03452774Recruiting
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.
Worcester, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT06750185RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BNT317 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called BNT317 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if BNT317 is safe and if it can help shrink tumors.
East Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT05875168RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of DS-3939a for Advanced Solid Tumors
This trial is testing a new drug called DS-3939a for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The study has two parts to find the right dose and see how well it works.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT06362369RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Oral 7HP349 with immunotherapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental oral drug (7HP349) combined with two immunotherapy drugs (ipilimumab and nivolumab) for people with advanced solid tumors. It aims to see if the combination is safe and effective in shrinking tumors.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT07182591RecruitingPhase 1
Study of DS5361b for advanced solid tumors with high TMB or MSI
This study tests a new drug (DS5361b) for people with advanced solid tumors that have high genetic instability (TMB-H or MSI-H). It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT06130553RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of AZD3470 for patients with MTAP-deficient advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an investigational drug called AZD3470, which blocks a protein called PRMT5, in people whose tumors lack a gene called MTAP. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT05765851RecruitingPhase 1
HER2-targeting drug study for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 trial tests a combination of medicines (including DS-1103a) for people with advanced, hard-to-remove (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors that have HER2 changes. Because it’s an early safety/dose study, it mainly aims to find the right dose and see how the tumor responds.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT06188520RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a new drug for advanced solid tumors in women
This trial tests a new drug, AZD8421, alone or with other treatments, for women with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to prior therapies. It aims to find a safe dose and see if it can help shrink or control the cancer.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT05907980RecruitingPhase 1
ROSE12 alone and with other drugs for advanced solid tumors

Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT05584670RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new cancer drug for advanced solid tumors
This is an early (Phase 1/2) study of SAR445877, a new drug, in adults with advanced or metastatic solid cancers. It aims to find the safest dose and learn whether it can shrink tumors or help control disease when standard treatments aren’t available or no longer work.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT05329103RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug PEEL-224 in advanced solid tumor cancers

Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT02693535RecruitingPhase 2
Match FDA cancer drugs to a tumor gene change
This trial tests FDA-approved cancer medicines in people with advanced cancer whose tumor has a specific gene or protein abnormality. It tries to see whether targeting that tumor “fingerprint” can help when standard treatments no longer work.

What taking part in a locally advanced solid tumor 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.
