Fort Myers, FloridaAges Up to 50 years - NCT07466316RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing chemo schedules for intermediate-risk rhabdomyosarcoma
This trial compares two different chemotherapy schedules for children and young adults with intermediate-risk rhabdomyosarcoma (a type of muscle cancer). One group gets a higher dose of chemotherapy over a shorter period, while the other gets a lower dose plus maintenance therapy for a longer time. The goal is to see which approach works better.
Fort Myers, FloridaAges Up to 50 years - NCT05382338RecruitingPhase 3
Sodium thiosulfate to protect hearing in medulloblastoma
This Phase 3 study tests whether adding sodium thiosulfate during treatment for newly diagnosed medulloblastoma can reduce the risk of hearing loss. It is designed for children and teens whose cancer meets specific low-risk or average-risk tumor and lab features.
Fort Myers, FloridaAges 4–21 - 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.
Fort Myers, FloridaAges 12 months–30 years - NCT05304585RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo for children with early, low-risk fusion-negative rhabdomyosarcoma
This Phase 3 study tests a chemotherapy plan for children and teens with newly diagnosed, very low-risk or low-risk rhabdomyosarcoma that does not have certain gene fusions (FOXO1 fusion negative). The goal is to see if this treatment can work well while limiting side effects by matching therapy to early-stage risk.
Fort Lauderdale, FloridaAges Up to 21 years - NCT06368817RecruitingPhase 2
Lower radiation dose for children with CNS germinoma
This trial will see if giving a lower dose of radiation therapy can still effectively treat children and young adults with a type of brain tumor called germinoma. The goal is to reduce side effects while keeping the cancer under control.
Hollywood, FloridaAges 3–29 - NCT02402244Recruiting
Caring registry study for children and young people with cancer
This study keeps a careful record of children, teens, and young adults with cancer (and some related growths) and may follow them over time. It helps researchers better track outcomes and future contact so care can improve.

Deerfield Beach, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05317858RecruitingPhase 3
Open the brain’s blood barrier to treat lung cancer brain spots
This trial tests whether using focused ultrasound to temporarily open the brain’s blood barrier—plus standard immune therapy—can better treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread to the brain. It aims to help medicines reach the brain tumor spots more effectively, while still using the usual lung cancer treatment.
Fort Lauderdale, FloridaAges 18–100 - NCT06859801Recruiting
Bone pain study combining ablation and radiation
This study looks at combining two treatments for painful bone tumors that have spread from other cancers. It tests if using both treatments together provides better pain relief than either alone.
Miami, FloridaAges 21 years+ - NCT06724237RecruitingPhase 3
High-dose chemo and stem cell transplant for T-cell lymphoma patients in remission

What taking part in a oncology 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.
