Stent vs no stent after bladder removal surgery
This study looks at whether leaving a small tube (ureteral stent) in place after bladder removal helps recovery. It compares people who get a stent to those who don't, focusing on problems like leaks or infections after surgery.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18–85 - NCT07630974RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New Cancer Drug for Children With Hard-to-Treat Solid Tumors
This trial tests a new drug called ifinatamab deruxtecan in children whose solid tumors (cancers that form lumps, excluding brain tumors) have come back or stopped responding to previous treatments. The drug is designed to target and kill cancer cells while potentially causing fewer side effects than standard chemotherapy.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1 month–17 years - 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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Up to 25 years - NCT03858205Recruiting
Low-dose radiation to relieve pain from bone tumors
This trial studies whether low-dose radiation can reduce pain from a specific bone lesion caused by multiple myeloma. It may help people whose main problem is painful bone metastasis, with targeted treatment to the painful spot.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04870762RecruitingTeam says not enrollingPhase 2
3D-printed tongue stents during head and neck radiation
This Phase 2 study tests whether customized 3D-printed stents can be used safely during head and neck radiotherapy. If you’re having radiation (with or without chemotherapy), the stent may help make treatment easier and more precise, potentially improving the experience and outcomes.
Camden, New JerseyAges 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.
Wynnewood, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05334069Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection in patients
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.
Mullica Hill, New JerseyAges 40–75 - NCT04185935Recruiting
Genetic study of cancer in patients and their families
This study looks at DNA patterns in families where cancer may run in families, to better understand inherited (passed-down) cancer risk. You may be able to help even if you’re not sure whether your cancer is genetic—your family history and, if needed, medical records or tumor samples can be used.
Paoli, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT07283939Recruiting
Testing a tool to adjust chemo doses and reduce treatment delays
This trial tests a computer algorithm called PAGODA that helps doctors adjust chemotherapy doses for people with gastrointestinal cancers. The goal is to prevent unplanned treatment delays while keeping the treatment effective.
Chadds Ford, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07412002Recruiting
End-of-life care quality for children with cancer

Wilmington, DelawareAges 18 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.
Wilmington, DelawareAges 2 months+ - NCT07215624Recruiting
Survey on blood clot prevention after cancer surgery
This study surveys surgeons and surgical advanced practice providers about how they prevent blood clots (deep vein thrombosis) in patients after cancer surgery. It aims to understand current practices and improve future care.
Newark, DelawareAges 18 years+ - NCT05006482RecruitingPhase 3
Geriatric education and care support for older cancer survivors
This study tests whether a structured health education and “older adult care” approach—done with your oncology team—can improve support for people after cancer. It includes older cancer survivors and a chosen caregiver, using in-person or video visits for follow-up.
Newark, DelawareAges 18 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.
Bethlehem, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06001788RecruitingPhase 1
Ziftomenib for relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests a new drug combination called ziftomenib for people whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has come back or hasn't responded to treatment. Researchers will check how safe it is and what side effects happen.

What taking part in a malignant neoplasm 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.
