Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT07209111RecruitingPhase 2
Testing Calderasib for advanced solid tumors with KRAS G12C mutation
This trial tests a new drug, Calderasib (MK-1084), for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific KRAS G12C mutation and aren't getting better with standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug can help shrink or control the cancer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07067138Recruiting
Genetic testing to guide treatment for advanced breast cancer
This study looks at the genes in your cancer to find a treatment that might work better for you. It tests your tumor sample to match you with a drug that targets your cancer's specific weaknesses.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06240728RecruitingPhase 1
Testing NPX887 for advanced solid tumors with B7-H7 protein
This trial tests a new drug called NPX887 that targets a protein (B7-H7) on certain cancer cells to help your immune system fight them. It is for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06500481RecruitingPhase 3
Proton vs standard radiation for cancer spread to brain/spine lining
This trial compares a newer type of radiation (proton therapy) to standard radiation for people whose breast or lung cancer has spread to the lining of the brain and spinal cord. It aims to see if proton therapy can better control the disease while causing fewer side effects.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 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.
Bel Air, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05040360RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy after surgery for high-risk pancreatic NET tumors
This Phase 2 trial studies whether giving chemotherapy after surgery can lower cancer recurrence risk in people with high-risk pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). It may help you by testing an added treatment after the tumor has been removed.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 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.
Baltimore, MarylandAges Up to 50 years - NCT04489719Recruiting
Testing whether DNA repair changes affect radium-223 response

Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - 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.
Bethesda, MarylandAges Any age - 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.
Baltimore, MarylandAges Any age - NCT07162038RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T cells plus half-matched stem cell transplant for high-risk blood cancer
This trial tests giving special immune cells (CAR-T cells) that target a protein called CD19 on cancer cells, followed by a half-matched stem cell transplant, to treat high-risk blood cancers. The treatment aims to improve outcomes by using the CAR-T cells to reduce disease before the transplant.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–75 - NCT06995898Recruiting

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.
