Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03739827Recruiting
Study rare solid tumors and collect your health samples
This study follows people (and sometimes family members) connected to rare solid tumors and collects health information and samples (biospecimens). It helps researchers understand how these cancers develop and builds resources for future research, which may benefit you by contributing to better tailored care for rare cancers.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 4 weeks+ - NCT04222413RecruitingPhase 1
Study of metarrestin for advanced solid tumors
This study tests an experimental drug called metarrestin for people with solid tumors that have spread or come back after standard treatment. It may help by targeting a protein involved in cancer cell growth.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 12–120 - NCT00026884Recruiting
Blood and tissue sample collection for cancer research
This study collects blood and tissue samples from people with cancer or suspected cancer, or from their blood relatives. Researchers use these samples to better understand cancer and develop new treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2 years+ - NCT03463954Recruiting
Laser treatment trial for small breast tumors
This trial tests a focused laser treatment (Novilase®) to destroy small, cancerous breast tumors while aiming to work with standard care. It may help people who have an early, localized tumor that can be clearly seen on imaging so doctors can guide the laser safely.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04645160RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tivozanib for bile duct and gallbladder cancers after chemotherapy
This Phase 1/2 trial tests tivozanib (a targeted anti-cancer drug) in people with bile duct or gallbladder cancer that cannot be removed by surgery and has already been treated with first-line chemotherapy. The study looks at how well the drug works and how safe it is in this setting.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04959175RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Lower post-transplant drug doses for older or unfit patients
This trial tests whether giving a lower dose of cyclophosphamide after a bone marrow transplant can be safer for older or medically “unfit” patients, while still helping control blood cancers. It is designed for people who can’t tolerate the usual strongest transplant preparation.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 12–85 - NCT05327010RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new drug combination for advanced solid tumors
This trial is studying whether a new combination of two cancer drugs, ZEN003694 and talazoparib, can help people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. Talazoparib is a type of drug that targets cancer cells with certain DNA repair problems. The study is divided into groups based on specific gene mutations or previous treatment responses.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05691491RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Temozolomide plus M1774 for advanced metastatic cancers
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a combination of temozolomide and M1774 to see how safe it is and whether it can help shrink advanced cancers that have spread. It focuses on certain tumor types and specific biomarker results, and it may be an option if standard treatments have been tried or aren’t possible.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05687136RecruitingPhase 1
Study two targeted drugs for solid tumors with DNA repair changes
This Phase 1 trial tests how safe and effective two anti-cancer drugs (peposertib and tuvusertib) are for advanced solid tumors. It focuses on cancers with specific DNA repair and cell-growth gene changes, aiming to shrink tumors and improve outcomes when standard treatments have stopped working.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06222203Recruiting

Standard vs longer radiation for brain metastases
This trial compares the usual short course of radiation therapy (one session) to a longer course (up to 5 sessions) for people with cancer that has spread to the brain. The goal is to see if the longer course works better and causes fewer side effects.
Largo, MarylandAges 18 years+ - 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.
