Recruiting studies near Washington, D.C.
- NCT06172296RecruitingPhase 3
Dinutuximab plus transplant for high-risk neuroblastoma
This trial tests adding a targeted drug called dinutuximab to standard chemotherapy, surgery, and a stem cell transplant for children and young adults with a new diagnosis of high-risk neuroblastoma. The goal is to see if this combination helps more patients stay in remission.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges Up to 30 years - NCT07172958RecruitingPhase 1
Immune cell therapy for children with certain solid tumors
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy called CAR T cells that are designed to recognize and attack cancer cells in children and young adults with certain solid tumors that have come back or not responded to standard treatment.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 1–23 - NCT04851119RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tegavivint for kids and young adults with hard-to-treat solid tumors
This early-phase study tests tegavivint to see how well it works and how safe it is for children and young adults with solid cancers that have come back or are not responding. It may be an option if your tumor type (including certain lymphomas or desmoid tumors) matches the study’s rules.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 1–30 - NCT01109394Recruiting
Help study tumors with sample testing and a research biology library
This study collects tumor (or related) samples to analyze their genes and build a shared research “biobank.” It may help researchers understand cancers better for future diagnosis and treatments.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 4 weeks+ - NCT03126916RecruitingPhase 3
Testing added therapy for high-risk neuroblastoma in children
This Phase 3 study tests whether adding either a targeted drug (lorlatinib) or a radioactive treatment (131I-MIBG) to intensive chemotherapy improves outcomes for children with high-risk neuroblastoma. It may help by aiming at tumor cells more directly alongside standard treatment.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 12 months–30 years - NCT05135975RecruitingPhase 2
Cabozantinib maintenance to help stop pediatric cancer from growing
This trial studies cabozantinib given after standard treatment to try to keep high-risk pediatric solid tumors from coming back or getting worse. It is offered to children and young adults whose cancer has not fully disappeared but is not progressing at the start of this maintenance phase.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 1.5 years–40 years - NCT04901702RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Onivyde plus talazoparib or temozolomide for resistant solid tumors
This trial tests whether adding Onivyde to either talazoparib or temozolomide can shrink or control hard-to-treat (refractory or recurring) cancers in children and young adults. It aims to find safer dosing first, then look at how well the treatment works—especially for Ewing sarcoma.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 1–30 - NCT05642455RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a new treatment for certain childhood cancers
This Phase 1/2 study tests a new therapy for children and young adults with specific types of cancer that have been treated with chemotherapy before. It may help by targeting cancer features in the tumor and using your immune system in a controlled way.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–21 - NCT06176989RecruitingPhase 2
Enasidenib for IDH2-mutated sinonasal and skull base tumors
This trial tests an oral targeted therapy called enasidenib for people with rare head and neck cancers that have an IDH2 gene mutation. The goal is to see if this drug can shrink or slow the growth of these tumors.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06995872RecruitingPhase 1
Study of rhIL-15 with immunotherapy and chemo for neuroblastoma
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (rhIL-15, dinutuximab, irinotecan, and temozolomide) for children and young adults whose neuroblastoma has come back or hasn't responded to other treatments. The goal is to see if this mix can help shrink or control the cancer.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–35 - NCT01005654Recruiting
Molecular testing for endocrine tumor diagnoses
This study collects and analyzes molecular (cell/DNA-level) information from endocrine tumors or pre-cancer conditions. It may help doctors better understand these tumors and improve diagnosis and treatment planning when you need surgery or a biopsy.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 4 years+ - NCT06479811RecruitingPhase 1
Radioactive drug for advanced neuroendocrine and other cancers
This trial tests a new radioactive drug, [212Pb]VMT-Alpha-NET, that targets a protein on certain cancer cells. It is for people with specific types of advanced cancers that have gotten worse and are not responding to standard treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT04755205Recruiting
Natural history study of olfactory neuroblastoma
This study follows people with olfactory neuroblastoma over time to better understand how the disease behaves and changes. It may help future patients by improving doctors’ knowledge, even if it does not test a new treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–120

What taking part in a neuroblastoma 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.
