Recruiting studies near Cincinnati
- NCT04511013RecruitingPhase 2
Trial for BRAF-mutant melanoma spread to the brain
This Phase 2 study tests whether a 3-drug plan (encorafenib + binimetinib + nivolumab) works better than ipilimumab + nivolumab for melanoma that has spread to the brain. If you qualify, you’ll get either treatment and have frequent brain scans to track how well it controls the tumors.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04870944RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CBL0137 for children with advanced solid or brain tumors
This early-phase study tests CBL0137 in children and teens whose cancer has come back or is not responding to treatment. It is also for some specific hard-to-treat brain tumors, to see if the drug is safe and can work against the cancer.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 1–21 - 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.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 1–39 - NCT04684368RecruitingPhase 2
New treatment for children and young adults with a brain tumor
This trial tests a new treatment approach for a rare brain tumor called NGGCT. It aims to see if a different way of treating the tumor can be effective and safe for children and young adults.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 3–29 - NCT03723928Recruiting
Blood test–guided monitoring for metastatic breast cancer treatment
This study checks whether specific blood “tumor marker” levels can help monitor how hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer responds to first-line therapy. It uses regular blood tests (and sometimes scans) to see if this marker-based monitoring is useful and reliable.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 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.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 12–39 - NCT03947385RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
First drug test for metastatic uveal melanoma with specific gene changes
This Phase 1/2 trial studies IDE196 in adults with metastatic uveal melanoma that has certain gene mutations or fusions. It’s mainly testing safety and correct dosing, and may help shrink tumors in patients matched to the tumor’s genetic changes.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 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.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 1–39 - NCT03093116RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Repotrectinib for ALK, ROS1, or NTRK tumor gene changes
This trial studies repotrectinib, a targeted medicine, in people with advanced solid tumors that have specific gene rearrangements (ALK, ROS1, or NTRK). It may help shrink tumors or control cancer growth based on the patient’s tumor genetic result.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 12 years+ - NCT04427384Recruiting
Brain tumor patients treated with GammaTiles registry
This study is a patient registry for people with brain tumors who had surgery to remove as much as safely possible and then had GammaTiles placed. It mainly collects information and follow-up imaging to understand how patients do after the treatment.
Cincinnati, OhioAges Any age - NCT06480552RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental drug (TEV‑56278) alone or with another drug (pembrolizumab) for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to find a safe dose and see if it helps shrink tumors.

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.
