Recruiting studies in Illinois
- 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.

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.

CPI-613 plus hydroxychloroquine with chemo for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a drug called CPI-613 (devimistat) combined with hydroxychloroquine along with either 5-fluorouracil or gemcitabine chemo. It’s for people with advanced cancers that have stopped responding to standard treatments, aiming to shrink tumors and slow cancer growth.

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.
