Recruiting studies in District of Columbia
- NCT05901285RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine injected into tumors plus immunotherapy for advanced cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests a cancer vaccine (VAX014) injected directly into a tumor, given alone at first and then with an immune checkpoint medicine (nivolumab or pembrolizumab). It aims to see how well this approach is tolerated and may help shrink advanced solid tumors after other treatments stopped working.

What taking part in a metastatic solid tumor 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.
