Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1–30 - NCT04585958RecruitingPhase 1
Combination treatment for HER2-positive cancers and resistant ovarian cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs, DS-8201a and olaparib, for people with cancers that have a protein called HER2, and for those with ovarian cancer that has stopped responding to platinum chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink or control the cancer.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04585750RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Studying a new drug for cancers with a specific TP53 change
This trial tests a new drug (rezatapopt) for people with advanced cancers that have a specific change in the TP53 gene, called Y220C. The drug is designed to target this change and may slow or stop cancer growth. Some participants may also receive an immunotherapy drug called pembrolizumab (Keytruda).
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 12 years+ - 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.
Allentown, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03184038Recruiting
Testing brain function in people with brain metastases after radiosurgery
This study looks at how well your thinking and memory work after treatment with radiosurgery for brain metastases. It may help researchers understand which patients benefit best and how to monitor side effects on brain function.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07059884Recruiting
Exercise program to help people with cancer stay active
This trial tests a distance-based exercise program designed to help people on chemotherapy maintain their physical function and prevent disability. It is for patients with certain cancers who are working full-time and can participate in moderate physical activity.
Butler, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05880667RecruitingPhase 1
Adaptive focused radiation for belly and pelvic cancer spread
This Phase 1 study tests an “adaptive” form of focused radiation (SBRT) for cancers that have spread in the abdomen or pelvis. It aims to treat metastatic tumor spots safely while adjusting the plan as needed during treatment.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06941272RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of patritumab deruxtecan for children with hard-to-treat solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, patritumab deruxtecan, in children and adolescents whose rhabdomyosarcoma or hepatoblastoma has returned or not responded to at least one prior treatment. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink tumors or stop them from growing.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 1 month–17 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.

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.
