Metastatic Cancer clinical trials in Ohio
We’re tracking 207 recruiting metastatic cancer studies with a site in Ohio — including Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 2/Phase 3 and Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Ohio
- NCT05498428RecruitingPhase 2
Amivantamab for advanced lung cancer with EGFR mutations
This Phase 2 study tests amivantamab (an antibody medicine) in people with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that has specific EGFR gene changes. It may help shrink tumors or control cancer when standard curative treatments aren’t possible.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05136196RecruitingPhase 2
Cabozantinib plus nivolumab for advanced melanoma or head-neck cancer
This trial tests whether combining two immunotherapy medicines—cabozantinib and nivolumab—can shrink advanced melanoma or certain head-and-neck squamous cell cancers. It is mainly for people whose cancer has grown after prior PD-1 treatment.
Centerville, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06805825RecruitingPhase 1
Study of NN3201 for advanced cancers with c-Kit
This trial tests a new drug, NN3201, that targets a protein called c-Kit found on some cancer cells. It may be an option for people with certain advanced solid tumors, including GIST, small cell lung cancer, or other c-Kit-positive cancers, who have already tried standard treatments or cannot take them.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05967689RecruitingPhase 2
Zipalertinib for lung cancer with EGFR exon 20 mutations
This Phase 2 trial tests zipalertinib (a targeted pill) in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has specific EGFR mutations, especially “exon 20 insertions.” It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth, including in some people with brain metastases.
Canton, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07194044RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a treatment schedule for metastatic Ewing sarcoma
This trial tests a new schedule of standard chemotherapy drugs to see if it improves outcomes for people with metastatic Ewing sarcoma or CIC-rearranged sarcoma. It is for patients who have not had prior cancer treatment, except possibly one initial cycle of VDC.
Cleveland, OhioAges 1 year+ - NCT05687110RecruitingPhase 1
Testing novobiocin for tumors with DNA repair gene changes
This Phase 1 study tests whether novobiocin is safe and finds the best dose for people whose tumors have specific DNA repair gene mutations. It may help if your cancer is hard to treat with standard options, including certain patients who already tried PARP inhibitors.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04142437Recruiting
Tracking how larotrectinib works for NTRK fusion cancers in routine care
This study follows people with cancers that have an NTRK gene fusion to learn how safe and effective larotrectinib is during everyday treatment. It may help confirm whether this medicine works well in real-world patients and side effects stay manageable.
Columbus, OhioAges Any age - NCT05058651RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Atezolizumab plus chemo for advanced neuroendocrine cancer outside the lung
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug called atezolizumab to standard chemotherapy helps people with advanced neuroendocrine carcinoma (a rare and aggressive cancer) that started outside the lung. The goal is to see if the combination works better than chemo alone.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05333458RecruitingPhase 2
Atezolizumab plus selinexor for advanced alveolar soft tissue sarcoma
This Phase 2 trial tests whether combining atezolizumab with selinexor can slow or shrink advanced alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) in people age 12 and older. It may help by improving the immune system’s ability to fight the cancer and stopping cancer cell growth signals.
Columbus, 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 - NCT06311214RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized ADC therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests personalized antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for advanced solid tumors. It looks for specific proteins on your tumor cells to match you with a treatment that targets them directly.
Columbus, 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.
Westlake, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05773274RecruitingPhase 2
Retreating with 177Lu-DOTATATE radiation versus usual treatment
This trial tests whether repeating a targeted radioactive treatment (177Lu-DOTATATE) works better than standard options in people with metastatic gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. It may help by controlling tumor growth after the first round of this therapy stops working.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06422806RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy plus chemo for aggressive sarcoma
This trial compares a combination of immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) plus chemotherapy (doxorubicin) versus chemotherapy alone for people with aggressive, poorly differentiated sarcomas that have spread or cannot be removed. The goal is to see if adding immunotherapy helps shrink tumors or slow their growth better than chemotherapy alone.
Avon, 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.

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.

Common questions
- Are there metastatic cancer clinical trials in Ohio?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 207 recruiting metastatic cancer studies with a site in Ohio, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a metastatic cancer study in Ohio?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Ohio to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Ohio, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a metastatic cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New metastatic cancer studies open in Ohio regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
