Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - 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.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05327686RecruitingPhase 2
Adding focused radiation to immunotherapy for kidney cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding focused, high-precision radiation to immunotherapy helps people with advanced kidney cancer (that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread). It aims to improve cancer control by combining two treatment approaches.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT01891318RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study radiosurgery plus surgery for brain metastases
This trial tests giving focused radiation (radiosurgery) before surgery for certain resectable brain metastases. It may help shrink or control tumors in the brain before they are surgically removed.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04181060RecruitingPhase 3
Osimertinib alone or with bevacizumab for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether starting osimertinib with or without bevacizumab helps people with advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer live longer and control the cancer better. Your EGFR mutation test result and past treatments are key to whether you can join.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04585750RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for TP53 Y220C-mutated advanced cancers
This early-phase study tests PC14586 (rezatapopt) in people with advanced or metastatic solid cancers that carry a specific TP53 mutation called Y220C. It mainly looks at safety and how well the treatment may work, sometimes combined with pembrolizumab.
Cleveland, OhioAges 12 years+ - NCT04166409RecruitingPhase 3
Selumetinib versus chemo for low-grade brain tumor in children
This trial studies whether the targeted drug selumetinib works better than standard chemotherapy (carboplatin and vincristine) for children and young adults with a specific type of low-grade glioma (grade 1 or 2). It may help shrink tumors and slow growth while comparing side effects between the two treatment approaches.
Cleveland, OhioAges 2–21 - NCT04613596RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Adagrasib for KRAS G12C lung cancer, alone or with pembrolizumab
This trial studies adagrasib (an anti-cancer drug) either alone or with pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) in people with advanced lung cancer that has a KRAS G12C mutation. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes, including for people without urgent brain treatment needs.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - 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.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05040360RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy after surgery for high-risk pancreatic NET tumors
This Phase 2 trial studies whether giving chemotherapy after surgery can lower cancer recurrence risk in people with high-risk pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). It may help you by testing an added treatment after the tumor has been removed.

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.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04787744RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Test standard prostate cancer treatment with or without targeted spot radiation
This study tests whether adding targeted local treatment (like radiation to a few spots seen on scans) improves outcomes for some people with limited (oligometastatic) prostate cancer. It compares standard systemic therapy alone versus standard therapy plus PET-scan–guided spot treatment.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04804644RecruitingPhase 3
Memory-sparing radiation for brain metastases in small cell lung cancer
This study tests whether focusing high-dose radiation only on brain tumor spots, while avoiding the hippocampus (a brain area important for memory), helps protect memory and thinking compared with standard whole-brain radiation. It’s for people with small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04665739RecruitingPhase 2
Lutetium Lu-177 for lung carcinoid tumors with somatostatin receptors
This trial tests lutetium Lu 177 dotatate, a targeted radiation treatment, for advanced lung neuroendocrine (carcinoid) tumors that have a specific marker called somatostatin receptors. It may help shrink tumors by delivering radiation directly to cancer cells that “light up” on a special scan.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05168163RecruitingPhase 2
Atezolizumab plus targeted drug for advanced liver cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether atezolizumab combined with a multi-targeted (“multi-kinase”) inhibitor can treat advanced liver cancer that cannot be cured with surgery or local procedures.
