Recruiting studies near Birmingham
- NCT05564377RecruitingPhase 2
Find targeted cancer treatments using genetic testing

Birmingham, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT03911388RecruitingPhase 1
HSV G207 for Children with Recurrent Cerebellar Brain Tumors
This trial is testing a virus called HSV G207, which is injected directly into the tumor, to treat children and young adults with a type of brain tumor in the cerebellum that has come back or not responded to standard treatments.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 3–22 - NCT05642611RecruitingPhase 3
Cooling and compression for nerve protection during chemotherapy
This study tests whether using cooling and/or compression on the arms or legs can prevent nerve damage that can happen from certain chemotherapy drugs. If you get eligible chemo soon, this may help lower the chance of painful numbness or tingling during treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06513962RecruitingPhase 3
Triptorelin to protect ovaries in young women with cancer
This study tests whether a medicine called triptorelin can protect the ovaries in young women and teens receiving strong chemotherapy for cancer. If you are newly diagnosed with a cancer (other than breast cancer) and are about to get certain chemotherapy drugs, this trial may help preserve your fertility.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 39 years - NCT03866382RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus a targeted drug for rare genitourinary tumors
This Phase 2 study tests whether nivolumab and ipilimumab (immunotherapy drugs) plus cabozantinib (a targeted anti-cancer drug) can shrink or control rare cancers of the urinary/reproductive system that have spread. It may help by boosting the immune system and blocking cancer growth signals at the same time.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05863195RecruitingPhase 3
Pump chemotherapy plus standard chemo for liver-only colorectal spread
This study tests adding a chemotherapy “pump” directly into the liver along with standard chemotherapy, compared with standard chemotherapy alone. It’s for adults with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver but cannot be surgically removed, and who are responding to first chemotherapy.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06859424RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new GVHD prevention method after donor stem cell transplant
This trial tests a new way to prevent graft-versus-host disease (a common side effect of stem cell transplant) using a drug called cyclophosphamide after transplant. It is for adults with certain blood cancers who need a transplant from a partially matched unrelated donor.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–66 - NCT06126276RecruitingPhase 2
Testing neratinib with or without palbociclib for HER2+ solid tumors
This trial tests two targeted drugs—neratinib alone or with palbociclib—for people with HER2-positive solid tumors (other than breast cancer) that have returned or not gone away. The goal is to see if blocking HER2 and CDK4/6 can shrink or slow the tumor.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04851119RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tegavivint for kids and young adults with hard-to-treat solid tumors
This early-phase study tests tegavivint to see how well it works and how safe it is for children and young adults with solid cancers that have come back or are not responding. It may be an option if your tumor type (including certain lymphomas or desmoid tumors) matches the study’s rules.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 1–30 - 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+ - NCT01790152Recruiting
Dexrazoxane study to monitor heart damage in cancer survivors
This study tests dexrazoxane (DRZ) to see how it affects blood and heart-related “biomarkers,” or measurable signs of heart damage, after cancer treatment. It mainly targets survivors who may be at risk for cardiomyopathy (heart muscle weakness) or related heart failure.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT02285582Recruiting
Rare blood disorder registry for histiocytic conditions
This study is a registry that collects information about people diagnosed with rare histiocytic disorders. It helps doctors better understand these conditions over time and may improve future care.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT02402244Recruiting
Caring registry study for children and young people with cancer
This study keeps a careful record of children, teens, and young adults with cancer (and some related growths) and may follow them over time. It helps researchers better track outcomes and future contact so care can improve.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 25 years - NCT03816345RecruitingPhase 1
Nivolumab for advanced cancer with autoimmune conditions
This Phase 1 study tests nivolumab, an immunotherapy “anti-cancer accelerator,” in people with advanced cancer who also have an autoimmune disorder. It aims to see if nivolumab can be given safely and whether it may help shrink or control cancer.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT05235165RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery choice for lung spread of osteosarcoma
This Phase 3 trial compares two ways to remove lung metastases (open surgery vs keyhole surgery) in people with osteosarcoma. It aims to see which approach works better and is safer for patients with a limited number of lung spots that can be removed.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 50 years - NCT05538130RecruitingPhase 1
Study medicine for BRAF-mutated advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 trial studies how PF-07799544 works and what dose is safest in people with advanced cancer that has a specific genetic change called BRAF V600. You may receive it alone or with another treatment, depending on the tumor group, to see if it can treat the cancer.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 16 years+ - NCT05711667RecruitingPhase 3
Letermovir to prevent CMV after stem cell transplant in kids
This trial tests whether the medicine letermovir can prevent a common virus (CMV) from coming back after an allogeneic stem cell transplant in children. It may help lower the risk of CMV infection during the vulnerable period right after transplant.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 2–18 - NCT06655246RecruitingPhase 1
Ziftomenib and imatinib for advanced GIST
This trial tests a new drug, ziftomenib, combined with imatinib for people with advanced or spreading gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) that have a KIT mutation. It may help if your GIST has gotten worse while on imatinib.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06818643RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of MK-3120 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an investigational drug called MK-3120 for people with advanced solid tumors (cancer that has spread or cannot be removed). It is for patients whose cancer has progressed after standard treatments, and it aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
