Recruiting studies in Pennsylvania
- 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+ - 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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03947385RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
First drug test for metastatic uveal melanoma with specific gene changes
This Phase 1/2 trial studies IDE196 in adults with metastatic uveal melanoma that has certain gene mutations or fusions. It’s mainly testing safety and correct dosing, and may help shrink tumors in patients matched to the tumor’s genetic changes.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04142437Recruiting
Tracking how larotrectinib works for NTRK fusion cancers in routine care
This study follows people with cancers that have an NTRK gene fusion to learn how safe and effective larotrectinib is during everyday treatment. It may help confirm whether this medicine works well in real-world patients and side effects stay manageable.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT03715933RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug INBRX-109 for advanced or metastatic solid tumors
This Phase 1 trial tests INBRX-109, a cancer-targeting drug, in people whose solid cancers are locally advanced or spread to other parts of the body. Because it’s Phase 1, the main goal is to see whether it’s safe and how well it can work for different tumor types that meet specific requirements.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 12–85 - NCT05753722RecruitingPhase 1
First trial for PRTH-101 alone or with pembrolizumab
This early study tests PRTH-101, given by itself or with pembrolizumab, in people with advanced cancers that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if it is safe and how it affects the cancer.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05948865RecruitingPhase 1
Early trial drug for advanced solid tumors

Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05970497RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
KB707 trial for advanced solid tumors after other treatments
This early-stage trial tests KB707 in people with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have not responded well to standard treatments. If you qualify, you may receive KB707 to see how well it can shrink tumors or control the disease.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07115043RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2

This trial tests a new drug called AZD6750 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05150691RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Early study of an HER2 drug in advanced solid tumors
This early-phase trial tests DB-1303 and BNT323 together in people with advanced or metastatic solid cancers that have specific HER2 features. It may be an option when standard treatments have stopped working, aiming to find a safer dose and early signs of effectiveness.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05877430RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing an anti-cancer drug plus pembrolizumab for advanced cancers
This Phase 1/2 study tests the safety and early signs of benefit from CJRB-101 when combined with pembrolizumab (Keytruda) in people with advanced or metastatic lung, head and neck, or melanoma cancer. It may help some participants, but the main goal is to see how safe the combination is and whether it can control cancer.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Allentown, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT06500455RecruitingPhase 3
Standard vs longer radiation for brain metastases
This trial compares the usual short course of radiation therapy (one session) to a longer course (up to 5 sessions) for people with cancer that has spread to the brain. The goal is to see if the longer course works better and causes fewer side effects.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07182149RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called NRM-823 for people with several types of advanced cancer that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how well it works.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04775485RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted medicine for children with certain brain or solid tumors
This Phase 2 study tests tovorafenib, a targeted cancer medicine, in children and young adults whose tumors have specific BRAF or RAF changes. It is for cancers that have come back or grown despite previous treatment, with measurable signs on scans.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 6 months–25 years - NCT05315700RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
ORIC-114 for advanced lung or breast cancers with EGFR or HER2 changes
This early-phase study tests ORIC-114 to treat advanced solid tumors that have certain EGFR or HER2 genetic changes, often found in lung and breast cancers. It may help by targeting those specific cancer mutations, especially when standard treatments no longer work or aren’t tolerated.

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.
