It aims to see which approach is safer and better for protecting brain functions like speech and movement while removing the tumor.
GhentAges 18–90 - NCT04511013RecruitingPhase 2
Trial for BRAF-mutant melanoma spread to the brain
This Phase 2 study tests whether a 3-drug plan (encorafenib + binimetinib + nivolumab) works better than ipilimumab + nivolumab for melanoma that has spread to the brain. If you qualify, you’ll get either treatment and have frequent brain scans to track how well it controls the tumors.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04348747RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine plus pembrolizumab for breast cancer in the brain
This trial studies whether a personalized immune-cell vaccine (dendritic cell vaccine) combined with pembrolizumab can help control brain metastases from certain types of breast cancer. It may help your immune system better recognize and attack cancer cells in the brain.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07619599RecruitingPhase 1
PET Scan to Track Lung Cancer Treatment Response
This study uses a special PET imaging scan to help doctors see how well pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy drug) is working against advanced non-small cell lung cancer. You'll receive the scan along with your regular pembrolizumab treatment and possible radiation therapy to help measure treatment response.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03418961RecruitingPhase 3
Study of heart-risk management for metastatic HER2 breast cancer
This trial follows people with metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer who are at higher risk for heart damage while on HER2-targeted therapy. Some participants are randomly assigned to different monitoring/heart-protection approaches to see what best helps keep the heart safe.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT04047264Recruiting
Monitoring brain chemistry during brain surgery
This study tests whether a tiny probe can safely measure brain chemistry during and after brain surgery. It may help doctors better understand and treat brain conditions like tumors or epilepsy.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05372640RecruitingPhase 1
Drug combo trial for rare cancers with shared NUT features
This Phase 1 trial tests the safety and early signs of effectiveness of combining two anti-cancer drugs (ZEN003694 and abemaciclib) in teens and adults with metastatic or unresectable NUT carcinoma, breast cancer, and other solid tumors. It may help by finding a safer dose and whether the drug combination can shrink or control tumors that do not respond to standard treatments.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT07722754RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of four drugs—bevacizumab, sintilimab, cetuximab, and irinotecan—in people whose colorectal cancer has spread and hasn't responded to previous treatments. The goal is to see if this new mix can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05053971RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Entinostat plus ZEN003694 for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests a new combination anti-cancer treatment (entinostat plus ZEN003694) in people with advanced solid tumors that can’t be controlled with standard care. It aims to find a safe dose and see whether the treatment can shrink tumors or control the disease.

Low-dose radiation to trigger whole-body cancer effects
This trial tests whether giving a low dose of radiation to one spot can help shrink cancer in other, untreated areas (the “abscopal effect”) in people with multiple metastases. It may help by boosting the body’s response to stereotactic body radiotherapy (focused high-dose radiation) for tumors outside the brain.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT07126301Recruiting
Aromatherapy with essential oils for nausea and anxiety during chemotherapy
This study tests whether using essential oils (like lavender, peppermint, or ginger) can help reduce nausea and anxiety in people receiving chemotherapy that often causes these side effects. If you've had significant nausea after your last chemo session, this therapy might offer a natural way to help you feel better during upcoming treatments.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06016855RecruitingPhase 4
Surgery before radiation therapy for neuroendocrine tumors
This trial tests if removing as much tumor as possible through surgery before a targeted radiation therapy (PRRT) can help people with well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors that have spread to the liver. The goal is to see if this approach works better than radiation therapy alone.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05411523Recruiting
