Study of BGB-11417 for blood cancers
This early-phase study tests BGB-11417 in people with certain bone-marrow (blood) cancers such as AML, MDS, or MDS/MPN. The goal is to find out how the medicine works and whether it can control the cancer.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02754544Recruiting
Brain mapping during tumor surgery while you are awake
This study uses special recording sensors during brain tumor surgery to map the brain areas that control movement and speech. It may help the surgical team protect these key functions while removing the tumor.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04771520RecruitingPhase 2
Avapritinib for tumors with specific KIT or PDGFRA changes
This Phase 2 trial studies avapritinib, a targeted medicine, for people whose cancer has specific KIT or PDGFRA genetic changes. It may help shrink or slow growth of certain advanced cancers, including some brain tumors, when standard treatments have not worked or for specific glioblastoma cases.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06319820RecruitingPhase 3
TAR-210 vs standard bladder chemo for FGFR-mutated bladder cancer
This trial compares a new drug, TAR-210, which is placed directly into the bladder, against standard chemotherapy given through a catheter. It is for people with a specific type of bladder cancer that has a change in the FGFR gene.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06532877Recruiting
Telephone support for advanced GI cancer and caregivers
This study offers telephone-based support for people with advanced gastrointestinal cancer who are experiencing fatigue, and for their family caregivers. It aims to help both you and your caregiver manage the challenges of cancer care together.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04575935RecruitingPhase 3
Minimally invasive surgery after chemotherapy for advanced ovarian cancer
This trial studies whether doing surgery using smaller incisions after chemotherapy works as well as a more traditional approach for certain people with stage IIIC–IV ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. It may help reduce surgical trauma while aiming for effective tumor removal.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06469944RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of drug combinations for stomach or esophagus cancer
This trial tests new combinations of drugs alongside standard chemotherapy for people with advanced stomach or esophagus cancer that has not been treated yet. It aims to see if these combinations can shrink tumors or slow down the cancer better than current options.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT00488878Recruiting
Collecting information for certain low-grade ovarian or peritoneal tumors
This study collects health information from people whose ovarian or peritoneal cancer started as a low-grade type but later changed to a higher-grade cancer. It may help researchers better understand how these tumors progress and what to expect over time.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT01790152Recruiting
Dexrazoxane study to monitor heart damage in cancer survivors
This study tests dexrazoxane (DRZ) to see how it affects blood and heart-related “biomarkers,” or measurable signs of heart damage, after cancer treatment. It mainly targets survivors who may be at risk for cardiomyopathy (heart muscle weakness) or related heart failure.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT03465774Recruiting
Doxycycline added to a chest drain for cancer fluid buildup
This trial studies whether adding an antibiotic called doxycycline to an indwelling chest drain improves symptoms and fluid control in people with cancer-related fluid around the lungs. It’s mainly for patients who are getting this drain placed and can complete brief symptom check-in questions.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03604315RecruitingPhase 1
PET/CT scan testing a new radioactive tracer for tumors
This early-phase study uses PET/CT scans to see how well a new radioactive tracer (a tiny dose of a special material) highlights solid tumors in the body. It may help researchers learn whether this tracer can better find and track tumor spots seen on standard scans.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03739827Recruiting
Study rare solid tumors and collect your health samples
This study follows people (and sometimes family members) connected to rare solid tumors and collects health information and samples (biospecimens). It helps researchers understand how these cancers develop and builds resources for future research, which may benefit you by contributing to better tailored care for rare cancers.
Houston, TexasAges 4 weeks+ - NCT07287098RecruitingPhase 2
Imlunestrant for premenopausal women with ER+/HER2- early breast cancer
This trial tests a new hormone-blocking pill (imlunestrant) in premenopausal women with early-stage ER+/HER2- breast cancer. Depending on whether you've had prior hormone therapy, the study will see if this treatment works better than standard options.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06966700RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Sac-TMT in Early High-Risk Breast Cancer
This study tests a new drug called Sacituzumab Tirumotecan (Sac-TMT) for people with early-stage, high-risk breast cancer that hasn't spread. The drug is given before surgery to see if it can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05386108RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test abemaciclib plus elacestrant for breast cancer brain spread
This trial studies whether the combination of abemaciclib and elacestrant can slow or shrink ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has spread to the brain. It is designed for people whose cancer has progressed despite prior hormone (endocrine) treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03422302Recruiting
CPAP or breath-holding to reduce lung tumor motion
This study looks at whether using a CPAP breathing device or deep breath-holding can keep lung tumors from moving during targeted radiation. The goal is to improve safety and accuracy of stereotactic body radiation for lung cancer.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03113643RecruitingPhase 1
SL-401 with standard drugs for hard-to-treat blood cancers
This Phase 1 study tests SL-401, given with azacitidine and sometimes venetoclax, to treat acute myeloid leukemia (AML), high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), or blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN). It aims to find a safe dose and see whether the combination can improve blood cancer control.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT01042379RecruitingPhase 2
Adaptive drug trial for newly diagnosed breast cancer
This study tests personalized, changing treatment plans (given before surgery) to find better options for your specific breast tumor. You may be asked for extra breast-tissue testing to help match you with the most suitable study drug(s).
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT01772771Recruiting
Molecular testing to guide personalized cancer treatment plans
This trial uses special lab tests to look for tumor “molecular fingerprints” in your tumor or blood sample. The goal is to help your care team choose more personalized treatment options based on those results.

What taking part in a neoplasms 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.
