Recruiting studies near Washington, D.C.
- NCT04363164RecruitingPhase 2
Testosterone then enzalutamide to stop prostate cancer spread
This Phase 2 trial tests whether giving testosterone first, then enzalutamide (a prostate cancer hormone-blocking pill), can slow or prevent worsening metastatic prostate cancer. It is designed for men whose cancer progressed despite ongoing hormone-suppression treatment.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–90 - 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+ - NCT06793215RecruitingPhase 3
Divarasib plus pembrolizumab for KRAS G12C lung cancer
This trial compares a new targeted drug (divarasib) combined with an immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) versus standard chemotherapy plus immunotherapy for people with advanced lung cancer that has a specific KRAS G12C mutation. It aims to see if the new combination works better and is safe.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06059118RecruitingPhase 2
High-dose testosterone and a drug for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a combination of high-dose testosterone with enzalutamide and difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) for men whose prostate cancer has spread and stopped responding to standard hormone therapy. It aims to see if this approach can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Baltimore, 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 - NCT06934538RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immunotherapy trial for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug (STC-1010) for people with colorectal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–75 - NCT04704505RecruitingPhase 2
Testosterone-like treatment plus radium for bone-spread prostate cancer
This trial studies whether adding a testosterone-related therapy (BAT) to radium-223 can better control prostate cancer that has spread mainly to the bones. It may help shrink tumors in the bone and slow PSA rises, which are a common marker of prostate cancer activity.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07181161RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for metastatic prostate cancer
This trial tests an investigational drug (AZD0516) alone or with other treatments in men with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and is no longer responding to hormone therapy. It aims to see if the drug can help control the cancer.
Towson, MarylandAges 18–130 - NCT06134232RecruitingPhase 2
Extra sipuleucel-T after Provenge for prostate cancer
This trial tests whether adding one extra infusion of sipuleucel-T (the same drug as Provenge) after the standard three doses can help men with advanced prostate cancer that no longer responds to hormone therapy. It is for men who have already finished their three Provenge infusions and have mild or no symptoms.
Towson, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06524544RecruitingPhase 3
Pembrolizumab and sacituzumab govitecan for advanced bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination (pembrolizumab and sacituzumab govitecan) against standard treatment for advanced bladder cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It's for people who have already tried an immunotherapy drug like pembrolizumab and another drug called enfortumab vedotin.

What taking part in a metastatic cancer study involves

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.
