Recruiting studies in Illinois
- NCT07594626RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
BMS-986504 and Pemetrexed for Advanced Tumors With MTAP Loss
This trial tests a new drug (BMS-986504) combined with an existing chemotherapy (pemetrexed) for advanced solid cancers that have a specific genetic change called MTAP deletion. The trial aims to see if this combination can slow or stop tumor growth in patients whose cancer has progressed despite prior treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06630416RecruitingPhase 2
Pemetrexed for advanced bladder and other cancers with certain gene changes
This trial tests if a chemotherapy drug called pemetrexed works better in advanced bladder cancer or other solid tumors that have specific genetic changes (MLL4, UTX, or MTAP). It is for people who have already tried at least two prior treatments.
Orland Park, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06311214RecruitingPhase 2

This Phase 1 study tests a new anti-cancer drug (ZEN003694) added to the usual chemotherapy capecitabine. It is for adults with colorectal cancer (and possibly other cancers) that has spread or cannot be removed and has continued despite prior standard treatment.
Shiloh, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - 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.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05691491RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Temozolomide plus M1774 for advanced metastatic cancers
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a combination of temozolomide and M1774 to see how safe it is and whether it can help shrink advanced cancers that have spread. It focuses on certain tumor types and specific biomarker results, and it may be an option if standard treatments have been tried or aren’t possible.
Shiloh, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05564377RecruitingPhase 2
Find targeted cancer treatments using genetic testing
This study matches people with advanced solid tumors to targeted treatment plans based on genetic testing. It also requires tumor sample testing to help doctors choose the most promising therapy for your specific tumor changes.
Barrington, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT05372614RecruitingPhase 1
Testing trastuzumab deruxtecan and neratinib for HER2-positive cancers
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs, trastuzumab deruxtecan (Enhertu) and neratinib, for people with solid tumors that have a HER2 gene change. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and works well for cancers that have not responded to at least one prior treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - 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.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 1–21 - NCT04851119RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tegavivint for kids and young adults with hard-to-treat solid tumors
This early-phase study tests tegavivint to see how well it works and how safe it is for children and young adults with solid cancers that have come back or are not responding. It may be an option if your tumor type (including certain lymphomas or desmoid tumors) matches the study’s rules.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 1–30 - NCT03866382RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus a targeted drug for rare genitourinary tumors
This Phase 2 study tests whether nivolumab and ipilimumab (immunotherapy drugs) plus cabozantinib (a targeted anti-cancer drug) can shrink or control rare cancers of the urinary/reproductive system that have spread. It may help by boosting the immune system and blocking cancer growth signals at the same time.
Alton, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT03816345RecruitingPhase 1
Nivolumab for advanced cancer with autoimmune disease
This trial tests whether the immunotherapy drug nivolumab can safely treat advanced cancer in people who also have an autoimmune disease like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or multiple sclerosis. It aims to find out if the drug may help control cancer while managing their autoimmune condition.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT02474160Recruiting
Banking cancer tissue and blood for future research
This study collects and stores leftover or newly taken samples of tissue and blood from people with cancer. The goal is to build a research library that can help investigators study cancer and develop better tests or treatments.
Bloomington, IllinoisAges 2 months+ - NCT05802186Recruiting
AI-guided radiation plan for lung cancer tumors
This study uses an AI tool to help plan how doctors deliver focused radiation to lung tumors. It may help make radiation targeting more precise and support treatment safety for people with primary or limited metastatic lung cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05733000RecruitingPhase 2
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.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 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.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07030712RecruitingPhase 1
Study of MK-8294 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental drug called MK-8294 for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. It may be an option if you have certain types of cancer and are looking for a new treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04104776RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test drug tulmimetostat for advanced cancers and lymphomas
This early-phase study tests tulmimetostat (DZR123) to shrink or control advanced solid tumors and certain lymphomas, and it may also test a combination in some prostate cancer groups. If you qualify, you’ll receive the study drug and be monitored closely, including blood tests and a request for tumor tissue to look for biomarkers.
Maywood, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06912087RecruitingPhase 1
Finding the right dose of a new combo for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new three-drug combination for advanced head and neck cancer that cannot be cured by local treatments. It aims to find the best dose of a targeted therapy called Zanzalintinib when given with two standard immunotherapy and targeted drugs.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04389632RecruitingPhase 1
Sigvotatug vedotin for advanced solid tumors that spread
This early-stage study tests a drug called sigvotatug vedotin in people with advanced solid cancers that cannot be removed or have spread. It aims to see how well the treatment works and what side effects it causes.
Calumet City, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05868226RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized cancer treatment study for advanced solid tumors
This study tests different treatments tailored to your cancer's biology. It aims to find which therapy might work best for you, potentially improving outcomes. You'd receive one of the study drugs, with close monitoring and support.

What taking part in a metastatic malignant solid neoplasm 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.
