- NCT05118789RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for ROS1-positive lung or solid tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests zidesamtinib (NVL-520), a medicine meant to attack cancers that have a ROS1 genetic change. It’s for people with advanced or metastatic ROS1-rearranged NSCLC (lung cancer) and, in one group, other solid tumors.

Study for bladder or urinary tract cancer after PD-1 failure
This Phase 1/2 study tests investigational cancer treatment(s) in people with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer that has not responded to PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy. It may help by trying a new approach after prior checkpoint treatment has stopped working or the cancer returns.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06673017RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new treatment for pancreatic cancer before surgery
This trial tests a new treatment, PTM-101, placed during a laparoscopy procedure for people with pancreatic cancer that can be removed with surgery. It aims to see if adding this treatment before standard chemotherapy helps improve outcomes.

Experimental pill for lung cancer with EGFR or HER2 changes
This study tests an experimental pill that targets cancer cells with certain gene changes (EGFR or HER2). It may help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06521554RecruitingPhase 1
Study of NVL-330 for HER2-altered advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new oral drug called NVL-330 for people with advanced NSCLC whose tumors have a specific change in the HER2 gene. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink or slow the growth of the cancer.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03257033RecruitingPhase 3
Gemcitabine through an artery versus by vein after radiation
This study tests whether giving gemcitabine directly into the artery feeding the pancreas (instead of through an IV) works better after you finish radiation therapy. It may help patients by improving how the medicine reaches the tumor while comparing side effects and outcomes between the two delivery methods.

What taking part in a locally advanced 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.
