Recruiting studies near Baltimore
- NCT03412877RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized immune-cell therapy for advanced metastatic cancers
This trial tests a personalized cell therapy made from your own immune cells, changed to recognize “neoantigens” on cancer cells. It’s designed for people with metastatic (advanced spread) solid cancers or certain other cancers who have tried standard treatments but cancer is still growing.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT07585266RecruitingPhase 3
New drug velzatinib versus imatinib for untreated GIST
This trial compares a newer cancer drug (velzatinib) with a standard treatment (imatinib) for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) that cannot be surgically removed or have spread. You would receive one of these two drugs to see which works better and is safer.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05003895RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T for solid tumors with high GPC3 protein
This early-phase trial tests a personalized CAR-T cell treatment for cancers that make a lot of a protein called GPC3. If you have advanced cancer that has already tried at least one standard treatment, and your tumor has enough GPC3, this study aims to see how well the treatment can shrink tumors and how safe it is.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - 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+ - NCT02621021RecruitingPhase 2
Immune cell therapy for advanced melanoma
This trial tests a treatment that uses your own immune cells, called tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), to fight melanoma. Some participants also get a drug called pembrolizumab. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink tumors.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT01174121RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy made from your tumor-fighting immune cells
This trial tests a treatment made from your own immune cells (called tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, or TILs) for certain metastatic cancers. It’s designed for people whose cancer has not responded to standard treatments and who can safely provide a small tumor sample for cell-making.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT05786924RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted cancer drug study for RAS/RAF mutation-positive tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests S241656 (a targeted cancer medicine) in people whose cancers have certain “RAS/RAF” gene changes. It may help shrink tumors or control cancer growth, and also finds the safest dose and best way to use the drug.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05843253RecruitingPhase 2
Ribociclib plus everolimus or temozolomide for certain brain tumors
This Phase 2 study tests ribociclib with either everolimus or temozolomide, depending on the specific brain tumor type. It may help slow tumor growth in children and young adults whose tumor has specific genetic changes and who have had recent standard radiation therapy.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 1–39 - NCT06669117RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
VERT-002 for solid tumors with MET changes
This trial tests a new drug, VERT-002, for people with advanced solid tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), that have specific changes in the MET gene. It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or stop them from growing when other treatments haven't worked or aren't available.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05839379Recruiting
Targeted therapy study for children and young adults with brain tumors
This trial studies a targeted medicine approach for high-grade glioma (a fast-growing brain tumor) and some diffuse midline tumors, including DIPG. It may help by matching treatment to tumor biology using tumor testing done before or around starting standard therapy.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 1–39 - NCT07038343RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called AVZO-1418, either alone or with other treatments, for people with advanced solid tumors that have spread or cannot be removed. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective against certain types of cancer.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18–75 - NCT07123103RecruitingPhase 1
Study of XB371 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called XB371 for people with advanced solid tumors that have come back or spread. It aims to see if the drug is safe and works against the cancer.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06161974RecruitingPhase 2
Olutasidenib and temozolomide for IDH1-mutant high-grade glioma
This trial tests a combination of two oral medications, olutasidenib and temozolomide, for people with a specific type of aggressive brain tumor (high-grade glioma) that has an IDH1 mutation. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the tumor after standard treatment like radiation.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 12–39 - 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.

What taking part in a metastatic brain tumor 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.
