This study tests a new treatment called CAR T cells that target a protein called mesothelin found on certain cancer cells. The CAR T cells are made from your own immune cells and may help shrink tumors that have not responded to other therapies.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT03190941RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
T-cell therapy for HLA-A11:01 and KRAS G12V tumors
This trial tests a custom immune-cell treatment made from your blood that targets the KRAS G12V change in certain cancers. It is for people with advanced cancer who have already tried standard treatments, and it may help your immune system recognize and attack tumor cells.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT04924075RecruitingPhase 2
Belzutifan for cancers linked to VHL or HIF-2α changes
This Phase 2 study tests belzutifan (MK-6482) to treat certain advanced cancers caused by specific gene or disease changes, including VHL-related tumors and HIF-2α related tumors. It may help shrink tumors or slow their growth in people whose cancer matches these genetic or disease patterns.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 12 years+ - NCT06503146RecruitingPhase 2
New imaging tracer for detecting various cancers
This trial tests a new imaging agent, [18F]FAPI-74, which might help detect certain cancers more clearly.

What taking part in a pancreatic cancer 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.
