Recruiting studies near Boston
- NCT07719361RecruitingPhase 1
New drug for advanced, treatment-resistant prostate cancer
This study tests an experimental drug for men whose prostate cancer has spread and stopped responding to standard hormone therapies. It may be an option if your PSA is rising despite treatment with drugs like enzalutamide or abiraterone.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04946370RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Pembrolizumab plus prostate cancer drug, with or without radiation
This early-phase trial tests pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) plus an androgen-receptor–blocking prostate cancer drug, and possibly a targeted radiation treatment. It’s for men with prostate cancer that has spread and keeps worsening despite standard hormone therapy, aiming to shrink tumors and improve control of the disease.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06062745RecruitingPhase 1
PET scan study for prostate cancer with low PSMA or neuroendocrine features
This study tests a special PET scan (fluciclovine) to see if it can better detect prostate cancer that has low PSMA levels or has changed to a neuroendocrine type. It may help find tumors that standard PSMA scans miss.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06099093RecruitingPhase 4
PSMA PET scan before standard therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial will test if a special PET scan (18F-DCFPyL) can help doctors plan your treatment with a radioactive medicine called 177Lu-vipivotide tetraxetan. You are eligible if you already qualify for that standard therapy and have had a prior PSMA PET scan showing at least one active cancer site.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04883671Recruiting

Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03972657RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new prostate and kidney cancer drug with immunotherapy
This early trial tests whether REGN5678 (nezastomig) is safe and how well it works, either by itself or with an immunotherapy drug (cemiplimab). It targets adults with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer and certain metastatic kidney cancers that have already been treated.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05668962RecruitingPhase 2
Study selpercatinib plus I-131 for RET thyroid cancer that cannot take iodine
This trial tests whether combining a targeted pill (selpercatinib) with a radioactive iodine dose (I-131) can shrink thyroid cancer that has spread and no longer responds to radioactive iodine. It is for RET fusion–positive (genetically driven) thyroid cancers where the cancer cannot reliably absorb iodine anymore.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 12 years+ - NCT06439693RecruitingPhase 2
Sequential therapy for newly diagnosed HER2+ breast cancer that has spread
This trial tests a sequence of targeted therapies for people newly diagnosed with HER2-positive breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. The goal is to find a treatment plan that can potentially cure the cancer.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05652686RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Studying PT217 for neuroendocrine cancers
This trial tests a new drug called Peluntamig (PT217) for people with certain types of neuroendocrine cancers, like small cell lung cancer. It aims to see if the drug can help when standard treatments stop working or aren't an option.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05349227Recruiting
After-cancer digital coaching and wearable tracking outcomes study
This study tests a digital health coaching program (using phone/tablet check-ins and wearable data) to understand health and quality-of-life outcomes after cancer treatment. It may help you learn healthy habits and track progress over time.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06966024RecruitingPhase 1
Study of DCC-2812 for advanced genitourinary cancers
This trial tests an experimental pill called DCC-2812 for people with advanced kidney, bladder, or prostate cancer. The goal is to see if it is safe and if it might help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03418961RecruitingPhase 3
Study of heart-risk management for metastatic HER2 breast cancer
This trial follows people with metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer who are at higher risk for heart damage while on HER2-targeted therapy. Some participants are randomly assigned to different monitoring/heart-protection approaches to see what best helps keep the heart safe.
Winchester, MassachusettsAges 18 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.
Winchester, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - 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.
Burlington, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03678025RecruitingPhase 3
Standard treatment for metastatic prostate cancer, with or without local treatment
This Phase 3 trial studies whether using the usual medicines for metastatic prostate cancer, plus a definitive local treatment to the prostate, improves outcomes. It may help determine if treating the prostate directly can benefit people whose cancer has not worsened after initial hormone-based treatment.
Burlington, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07832292RecruitingPhase 2
Study of an investigational drug for metastatic prostate cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug (JNJ-101556143) for men with metastatic prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy. The goal is to see if this drug can slow down or stop the cancer from growing.
Plymouth, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06952803RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new drug for men with BRCA-related prostate cancer
This trial tests whether adding a new drug (saruparib) to standard radiation and hormone therapy can help prevent prostate cancer from spreading to other parts of the body. It is for men with high-risk prostate cancer that has a BRCA gene mutation.
Plymouth, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT03452774Recruiting
AI matches your cancer tests to possible treatment trials
This trial uses an AI system to help match people with certain cancer types and specific tumor test results (like gene or protein markers) to relevant clinical trials. It may help you and your doctor find studies that fit your cancer biology faster.
Worcester, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT07144280RecruitingPhase 3
Study of a new drug vs docetaxel for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new experimental drug called PF-08046054/SGN-PDL1V against a standard chemotherapy (docetaxel) for people with a type of advanced lung cancer that has PD-L1 protein on at least 1% of tumor cells and has progressed after prior treatments. The goal is to see if the new drug works better or has fewer side effects.
