Recruiting studies near Memphis
- NCT06937177RecruitingPhase 2
Testing mifomelatide to help maintain weight during chemo

This trial studies whether olaparib (a targeted cancer medicine) can help prevent pancreatic cancer from coming back after surgery in people with BRCA1, BRCA2, or PALB2 mutations. You would get olaparib or a placebo (inactive pill) and be closely followed to see if recurrence is reduced.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06906562RecruitingPhase 2
Pemigatinib for advanced pancreatic cancer with FGFR changes
This trial tests a targeted pill, pemigatinib, for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that has a specific FGFR gene change. The study is done entirely through telemedicine, so you can participate from home if eligible.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05366881Recruiting
Blood test study to spot early cancer signal and cancer leftovers
This observational study checks whether a blood test (a “cfDNA” test) can detect early signs of cancer or small amounts of cancer left after treatment. It may help doctors use a simple blood sample to improve cancer detection and follow-up.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 40 years+ - NCT06998940RecruitingPhase 3
Chemotherapy with or without panitumumab for pancreatic cancer
This trial tests whether adding a targeted drug called panitumumab to standard chemotherapy can help people with a certain type of pancreatic cancer that has spread. It is for patients whose tumors do not have a KRAS mutation and who have already had one line of chemotherapy.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06807437RecruitingPhase 3
Testing lanreotide before pancreas surgery to prevent leaks
This trial tests if a medicine called lanreotide, given before surgery, can prevent a common complication (pancreatic leak) after removing part of the pancreas. It is for people with pancreatic cancer or a growth that could become cancer who are scheduled for a specific type of pancreas surgery.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT03050268Recruiting
Study of childhood cancer risk in families
This study looks at inherited (family) risk for childhood cancers, including families with early cancers or known cancer risk conditions. It may help researchers understand why some children get cancer and improve future risk detection and care.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Any age - NCT06958328RecruitingPhase 3
Higher dose radiation for locally advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests whether giving a higher dose of radiation to the pancreas is safe and effective for people with locally advanced pancreatic cancer who have already had chemotherapy without progression.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05040360RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy after surgery for high-risk pancreatic NET tumors
This Phase 2 trial studies whether giving chemotherapy after surgery can lower cancer recurrence risk in people with high-risk pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). It may help you by testing an added treatment after the tumor has been removed.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT04239573Recruiting
Compare pancreatic cyst checkup programs and test markers
This study compares different ways to monitor pancreatic cysts and also measures blood or other test markers to see which approach is more helpful. It may help patients by finding the safest, most effective way to track certain cysts that could otherwise be hard to manage.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 50–75 - NCT04657068RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of ART0380 for advanced solid tumors
This study tests a new drug called ART0380 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It may be especially helpful for those with certain DNA repair gene changes (like ATM or BRCA). The drug will be given alone or with chemotherapy (gemcitabine or irinotecan) depending on the part of the trial.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05334069Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection in patients
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.
Germantown, TennesseeAges 40–75 - NCT07562152RecruitingPhase 3
Atebimetinib Plus Gemcitabine/Nab-Paclitaxel for New Pancreatic Cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—atebimetinib (a new targeted therapy), gemcitabine, and nab-paclitaxel (two standard chemotherapy drugs)—as a first treatment for pancreatic cancer that has spread beyond the pancreas. The goal is to see if adding atebimetinib helps patients live longer and feel better.
