Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03492762RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET scan study of lung inflammation in never or current smokers
This early research study uses special PET scans to look at lung inflammation linked to a target called CCR2. It may help researchers understand inflammation biology and future treatments, using scan results instead of an investigational drug.
St Louis, MissouriAges 21 years+ - NCT03259867RecruitingPhase 2
TACE plus immune therapy for liver or stomach cancer
This trial tests a combination treatment using a targeted liver procedure plus an immune “checkpoint” medicine to slow cancer growth. It may help people with advanced liver cancer (HCC) or metastatic stomach cancer when standard treatments have not worked.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT03089554RecruitingPhase 2
Genetic tumor testing to guide targeted cancer treatments
This trial studies how doing genetic (DNA) testing on your cancer helps doctors choose targeted treatments, and how those treatments affect outcomes. It is for adults whose cancer has not responded to the first standard treatment or who do not have curative options.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT03237026Recruiting
Urine tests to predict outcomes in prostate cancer treatment
This study looks for urine markers (proteins and metabolites) that may help predict how prostate cancer patients respond to treatment and what their outcomes are. You may be asked to give a urine sample and allow use of your medical and treatment details for analysis (results are not shared with you).
TaipeiAges 30–100 - NCT03295227RecruitingPhase 1
Pembrolizumab for thymus cancer that cannot be removed
This trial studies pembrolizumab, an immunotherapy medicine, in people with thymoma or thymic cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. It aims to see how well the treatment works and how safe it is, including whether your immune system can help control the cancer.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02834884Recruiting
Helps match cancer patients to clinical trials using screening
This study screens certain cancer types and collects a sample to check it’s good enough for future trial matching and research. If you qualify, your care team may use your sample to help find the most efficient clinical trial options.
ViennaAges 12 years+ - NCT02997709Recruiting
Collecting prostate cancer body marker samples during treatment
This study collects and measures “biomarkers” (measurable signs in the body) from people with prostate cancer who are about to have surgery or radiation. The goal is to understand how prostate cancer behaves during treatment, which may help improve care in the future.
Miami, FloridaAges 30 years+ - NCT02474160Recruiting
Banking cancer tissue and blood for future research
This study collects and stores leftover or newly taken samples of tissue and blood from people with cancer. The goal is to build a research library that can help investigators study cancer and develop better tests or treatments.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 2 months+ - NCT02290834Recruiting
Studying brain and thinking changes after chemotherapy in older breast cancer patients
This study looks at how chemotherapy may affect memory and thinking, using thinking tests and possibly brain imaging. It compares older breast cancer patients who do and do not get chemotherapy, plus a group of healthy older adults.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 60 years+ - NCT02422641RecruitingPhase 2
High-dose methotrexate for breast cancer in the brain lining
This Phase 2 trial tests whether giving high-dose methotrexate into the bloodstream can help treat breast cancer that has spread to the thin lining covering the brain and spinal cord. It may help reduce cancer in the leptomeningeal (brain-lining) area and control symptoms.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT01492972RecruitingPhase 3
Lighter radiation, with or without hormone suppression
This Phase 3 trial tests whether giving a smaller amount of radiation (“hypo-fractionated” means fewer, larger sessions) can work as well as standard approaches for intermediate-risk prostate cancer. It also compares adding hormone therapy (“androgen suppression”) to radiation versus using radiation alone.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT01676805Recruiting
Collecting tissue samples for lymphoma research
This study collects leftover tissue samples from patients with or without lymphoma to help researchers better understand lymph system cancers. It may be an option if you are already having a biopsy or surgery.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT02102165Recruiting
Study samples from metastatic triple-negative breast cancer
This study looks at tumor “clues” by using tissue and blood samples in people with metastatic breast cancer (with specific subtype). It aims to better understand what drives the cancer, which may help guide future treatments.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT01915511Recruiting
Long-term registry for new or worsening lung scarring
This study collects health information over time from people with newly diagnosed idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or other lung scarring diseases that are getting worse. It’s meant to better understand disease patterns and outcomes, which may help doctors plan future care.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 21 years+ - NCT01684904Recruiting
Proton beam radiation for certain esophagus cancers
This trial studies whether proton therapy can better treat early-to-mid stage esophagus cancer while aiming to reduce side effects to nearby organs. Proton therapy uses a targeted type of radiation, and participants are also checked to be eligible for curative surgery.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00843375Recruiting
Testing stool samples to find early colon cancer and polyps
This study checks stool samples to see how well stool tests can detect early colon cancer and precancerous growths called adenomas. If you qualify, you’ll collect stool samples for a lab test (FIT) and sometimes this helps sort who should get follow-up testing.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00923065Enrolling by invitation
NCI care and data study for patients and donors
This study helps collect information and provide certain clinical care and interventions for people who come to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Clinical Center (CCR). It may be a fit if you need NCI-level evaluation or support because your condition is complex, or if you’re involved as a cellular therapy donor or certain family members needing genetic testing.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 4 weeks–120 years - NCT00923442Enrolling by invitation
Study of blood cancers’ biology using stored or new tissue
This trial studies how different blood cancers and early (pre-cancer) blood conditions work, using tumor/blood tissue samples. It may help researchers learn more about disease biology for future treatments, with little to no extra risk if samples come from routine care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1–120 - NCT00001532Recruiting
