Bethesda, MarylandAges 2 years+ - NCT06222203Recruiting
Watching for cancer in NF1-related nerve tumors
This study monitors people with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) over time to watch for signs that their nerve tumors might turn into cancer. It helps researchers learn which tumors are more likely to change and may lead to better care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–120 - NCT04185935Recruiting
Genetic study of cancer in patients and their families
This study looks at DNA patterns in families where cancer may run in families, to better understand inherited (passed-down) cancer risk. You may be able to help even if you’re not sure whether your cancer is genetic—your family history and, if needed, medical records or tumor samples can be used.
Bethesda, MarylandAges Any age - NCT07585266RecruitingPhase 3
New drug velzatinib versus imatinib for untreated GIST
This trial compares a newer cancer drug (velzatinib) with a standard treatment (imatinib) for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) that cannot be surgically removed or have spread. You would receive one of these two drugs to see which works better and is safer.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT00033137Recruiting
Genetic study of Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome and kidney cancer risk
This research study examines the genes behind Birt-Hogg-Dubé (BHD) syndrome, a condition that increases kidney cancer risk. Researchers want to understand who inherits this condition and how to better identify and help people at risk.
