Recruiting studies in Maryland
- 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.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07562152RecruitingPhase 3
Atebimetinib Plus Gemcitabine/Nab-Paclitaxel for New Pancreatic Cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—atebimetinib (a new targeted therapy), gemcitabine, and nab-paclitaxel (two standard chemotherapy drugs)—as a first treatment for pancreatic cancer that has spread beyond the pancreas. The goal is to see if adding atebimetinib helps patients live longer and feel better.
Columbia, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06165302Recruiting
Exercise study for men with advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests whether a structured exercise program can help men with metastatic prostate cancer who are on hormone therapy. It looks at changes in cancer cells and overall well-being.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT07491445RecruitingPhase 3
Daraxonrasib plus chemo for first-line metastatic pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new targeted therapy (daraxonrasib) combined with standard chemotherapy as the first treatment for people whose pancreatic cancer has spread. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink or control the cancer better than chemotherapy alone.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05379595RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Amivantamab for advanced colon or rectal cancer with specific tumor traits
This Phase 1/2 study tests amivantamab alone or combined with standard chemotherapy to treat advanced or metastatic colon or rectal cancer. You may be able to join if your tumor has the right genetic profile (typically “wild-type” for certain genes and no HER2 amplification) and your cancer has measurable or biopsy-able lesions.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03786796RecruitingPhase 2
Olaparib for metastatic kidney cancer with specific DNA repair gene changes
This trial tests olaparib (a pill medicine) in people with kidney cancer that has spread and specific DNA “repair” gene mutations. The goal is to see whether this targeted treatment can slow the cancer or help it respond better after prior immunotherapy or blood-vessel–blocking therapy.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT00923221Recruiting
Donate blood for people with prostate cancer
This trial collects blood samples from adults with prostate cancer. It may help researchers learn more about the disease or how treatments work, without directly testing a new drug in the eligibility you provided.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06801236RecruitingPhase 1
A new drug for advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to treatment
This early-phase trial tests a new study drug called ACE-232 for men with advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to standard hormone therapy and chemotherapy. It aims to see if the drug is safe and may help slow the cancer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07221357RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Pumitamig plus chemo vs standard care for new colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug called Pumitamig combined with chemotherapy against standard bevacizumab plus chemotherapy for people with advanced colorectal cancer that cannot be surgically removed and hasn't been treated yet. The goal is to see which combination works better and is safer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06826924Recruiting
Fasting or ketones for prostate cancer
This trial tests whether a 7-day water-only fast or taking ketone supplements can help treat prostate cancer. You would have a biopsy before and after to see how the tumor responds.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05519449RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a PSMA-targeting treatment for advanced prostate cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests JANX007 in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (cancer that keeps growing despite standard hormone treatment). It aims to find a safe dose and see whether the treatment can shrink tumors or slow progression.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT06157151RecruitingPhase 2
New drug plus pembrolizumab for advanced cervical cancer
This trial tests a new experimental drug, PRGN-2009, combined with the immunotherapy pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for people with HPV-related cervical cancer that has come back or spread. It is for those who have already tried pembrolizumab and are looking for another option.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07340541RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized cancer therapy trial based on tumor markers
This trial tests new treatments that are chosen based on specific markers in your tumor. Researchers want to see if these personalized therapies work better than standard options.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07392892RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of PF-08634404 plus chemo for stomach and esophagus cancer
This trial tests a new study drug called PF-08634404 in combination with standard chemotherapy for people with stomach, gastroesophageal junction, or esophagus cancer that has spread. It aims to see if adding this drug helps the treatment work better.
Annapolis, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05029999RecruitingPhase 1
Test drugs for HER2-negative advanced breast cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a combination of immune-targeting drugs (a CD40 medicine and a substance that helps immune cells act) plus chemotherapy in people with HER2-negative advanced breast cancer that has progressed. It aims to find a safer dose and see whether the treatment can shrink tumors or slow the cancer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT05660083RecruitingPhase 2
Study of alpelisib plus iNOS inhibitor with nab-paclitaxel
This Phase 2 trial tests whether a combination of medicines can shrink and control HER2-negative metaplastic breast cancer that cannot be removed with surgery (locally advanced) or has spread (metastatic). It may help people whose cancer has specific lab/pathology features, and it also checks safety and how well the treatment works in the body.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05696626RecruitingPhase 3
Test a new pill plus abemaciclib versus standard therapy
This Phase 3 study compares lasofoxifene plus abemaciclib versus fulvestrant plus abemaciclib for ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has an ESR1 mutation. It looks for better tumor control in people whose cancer has progressed on hormone therapy (an aromatase inhibitor) and who meet specific safety and testing requirements.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04986423RecruitingPhase 2
Add ZEN003694 to enzalutamide for resistant prostate cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding ZEN003694 to enzalutamide works better than enzalutamide alone in men whose prostate cancer has spread and is no longer controlled by hormone lowering treatments. It focuses on people who either did not respond well to abiraterone (poor responders) or did respond (responders), then compares outcomes between treatment groups.
Columbia, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07365995RecruitingPhase 3
New drug for advanced prostate cancer vs. standard chemo
This trial tests a new drug called BNT324 against the standard chemotherapy docetaxel for men with advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy. It aims to see if the new treatment can help control the cancer better.
Rockville, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07213674RecruitingPhase 3
A study of xaluritamig plus abiraterone for prostate cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs (xaluritamig plus abiraterone) for men with a type of advanced prostate cancer that is no longer responding to hormone therapy but has not yet been treated with chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this combination works better than the standard options your doctor might choose.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06764485RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing a new drug to standard therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new medicine (BMS-986365) against the doctor's choice of standard therapy for men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. It aims to see which treatment works better and is safer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06253494RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Combination therapy trial for advanced endometrial cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (pembrolizumab, lenvatinib, and an immune booster called N-803) plus a personalized vaccine made from your own cells, all aimed at helping your immune system fight advanced or metastatic endometrial cancer that has HER2 protein on its surface.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05673148RecruitingPhase 3
Ablation treatment plus usual therapy for limited metastatic bowel cancer
This study tests whether adding “total ablation” (carefully destroying all visible small tumors using surgery, heat/cold treatment, and/or targeted radiation) to standard chemotherapy improves outcomes for people with limited spread of colorectal cancer. It may help by aiming to eliminate all known metastatic spots while you continue usual cancer treatment.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06991556RecruitingPhase 2
Testing JSB462 plus abiraterone for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug called JSB462 combined with abiraterone in men with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and is still responding to hormone therapy. The goal is to see if this combination works better than current treatments.

What taking part in a metastatic cancer 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.
