Mesothelioma clinical trials in Minnesota
We’re tracking 11 recruiting mesothelioma studies with a site in Minnesota — including Phase 1, Phase 1/Phase 2 and Phase 2 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Minnesota
- NCT05647265RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy before surgery for sarcomatoid pleural mesothelioma
This trial tests adding immunotherapy before surgery to help patients with sarcomatoid pleural mesothelioma. The goal is to shrink or control the cancer and make surgery possible, while checking safety.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04981119Recruiting
Test apheresis for CAR T manufacturing in HLA-A2 solid tumors
This trial studies how a process called apheresis is used to make CAR T cells for people with certain solid tumors. It is designed for tumors that have lost a specific immune marker (HLA-A*02), which may affect how well CAR T therapies work.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05001880RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo with or without immunotherapy for peritoneal mesothelioma
This study tests whether adding immunotherapy to standard chemotherapy helps people with peritoneal mesothelioma, a cancer in the lining of the abdomen. You may receive chemotherapy alone or with immunotherapy, and the goal is to improve cancer control.
Bemidji, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06051695RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T cell therapy for mesothelin-positive solid tumors
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (CAR T-cells) designed to target cancer cells that have a protein called mesothelin but have lost a marker that lets them hide from the immune system. It's for people with advanced solid tumors who have already tried standard treatments.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04665206RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing VT3989 for certain advanced cancers
This early-stage trial tests VT3989 in people with specific advanced (metastatic or unresectable) cancers. It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth in patients who fit the genetic or diagnosis-specific requirements.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05245500RecruitingPhase 1
Study drug for solid tumors with MTAP gene deletion
This Phase 1 trial studies MRTX1719, a new medicine, in solid tumors that have a missing MTAP gene (MTAP deletion). It aims to find the safest dose and check how the drug affects the tumor.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05579366RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for advanced ovarian and other solid cancers
This Phase 1/2 trial studies Rinatabart Sesutecan to treat advanced cancers, with special focus on certain ovarian cancer types. It’s meant for people whose cancer has come back or has not responded to prior treatments.
Maplewood, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05873686RecruitingPhase 1
Study of NXP900 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called NXP900 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The study has two parts: one for any advanced solid tumor and another for tumors with specific genetic changes.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06710756RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Lead-212 therapy for solid tumors
This trial tests a new radioactive drug, Lead-212 PSV359, for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The drug is designed to find and attack cancer cells.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–90 - NCT02012699Recruiting
Cancer registry for people with or at risk of cancer
This trial collects health information and samples (a “cancer repository”) to help researchers study cancer and cancer risk. You may be able to join if you’ve had cancer before or if you’re at higher risk or have concerning findings.
Brainerd, MinnesotaAges 19–110 - NCT06885424Enrolling by invitation
Long-term follow-up for A2 Bio gene therapy patients
This study follows up with people who previously received a gene therapy product from A2 Biotherapeutics in an earlier trial. The goal is to monitor their health over time and check for any long-term effects.

What taking part in a mesothelioma 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.

Common questions
- Are there mesothelioma clinical trials in Minnesota?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 11 recruiting mesothelioma studies with a site in Minnesota, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a mesothelioma study in Minnesota?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Minnesota to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Minnesota, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a mesothelioma trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New mesothelioma studies open in Minnesota regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
