Recruiting studies in Massachusetts
- NCT07252232RecruitingPhase 3
A pill to prevent pancreatic cancer recurrence after surgery
This trial tests an experimental daily pill, daraxonrasib, in people with pancreatic cancer that has been surgically removed. It’s for those who also had chemotherapy and have a specific DNA change called a RAS mutation. The goal is to see if the pill helps prevent the cancer from coming back.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07047807Recruiting
Digital support app for pancreatic cancer patients starting treatment
This trial tests a smartphone app designed to provide information and support to people with pancreatic cancer who are about to start neoadjuvant therapy before surgery. The app aims to help you manage your care and feel more supported during this time.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07491445RecruitingPhase 3
Daraxonrasib plus chemo for first-line metastatic pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new targeted therapy (daraxonrasib) combined with standard chemotherapy as the first treatment for people whose pancreatic cancer has spread. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink or control the cancer better than chemotherapy alone.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06922591RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
TNG462 for pancreatic and lung cancer with MTAP loss
This trial tests a new drug called TNG462, alone or combined with other drugs, for people with advanced pancreatic or non-small cell lung cancer whose tumors have a specific genetic change (loss of MTAP and a RAS mutation). It aims to see if TNG462 is safe and works better than current treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07217717RecruitingPhase 3
New PET scan for pancreatic cancer staging
This study tests a new type of PET scan that uses a radioactive tracer called FAPI-74 to find cancer spread in people with pancreatic cancer. The goal is to see if this scan can help doctors better plan treatment.
Worcester, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06122896RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Screening for pancreatic cancer in high-risk people
This trial uses MRI and endoscopic ultrasound to look for early signs of pancreatic cancer in people who have a high risk due to their genes or family history. Finding it early may lead to better treatment options.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07349537RecruitingPhase 1
Study of RMC-5127 for advanced KRAS G12V-mutant solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called RMC-5127 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific KRAS G12V mutation. The study aims to see if this targeted therapy can help when other treatments have stopped working or caused side effects.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07644559RecruitingPhase 2
VS-7375 for KRAS G12D pancreatic cancer
This study tests a new drug called VS-7375, combined with cetuximab, for pancreatic cancer patients whose tumors have a specific genetic mutation called KRAS G12D. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors and help patients live longer.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07227168RecruitingPhase 1
Study of STRO-004 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called STRO-004 for people with advanced solid tumors (cancers that have spread or come back). It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective for those who have already tried other treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04900818RecruitingPhase 1
Givastomig for advanced solid cancers, including gastric and pancreas
This Phase 1 trial tests how safe and effective givastomig (TJ033721) is for advanced or metastatic solid tumors. It may help people whose cancer has grown despite standard treatment, or—if in the combination parts—specific cancers that meet certain lab test and tumor-marker requirements.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05379985RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test drug RMC-6236 for certain RAS mutations in advanced cancers
This trial tests whether RMC-6236 can treat advanced solid tumors that have specific RAS-related gene changes (especially certain KRAS G12 mutations). You may be able to join if your tumor’s DNA test shows the right mutation and your overall health is good enough for study visits.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05968326RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus new vaccines versus chemo alone after pancreatic surgery
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding two study medicines (an immune-based vaccine treatment plus atezolizumab) to standard chemo helps prevent pancreatic cancer from coming back after surgery. It compares the combination against standard chemo alone, looking at safety and how well it prevents relapse.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06026410RecruitingPhase 1
KO-2806 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called KO-2806, alone or with other treatments, for people with advanced solid tumors that have specific gene changes (like HRAS or KRAS mutations). It may help if standard treatments have stopped working.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06040541RecruitingPhase 1
Study of RMC-9805 for KRAS G12D solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental pill (RMC-9805) for people with solid tumors that have a specific KRAS G12D mutation. It's for those who have already tried other treatments and need new options.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06445062RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of new RAS inhibitors for GI solid tumors
This trial tests new drugs that target specific RAS mutations in advanced gastrointestinal cancers, like pancreatic or colorectal cancer. It aims to see if these drugs can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06835569RecruitingPhase 1
ALTA3263 for advanced KRAS-mutated solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental pill called ALTA3263 for adults with advanced solid tumors that have a specific KRAS mutation. It's for people who have already tried other treatments or can't take them.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06917079RecruitingPhase 1
BBO-11818 for KRAS-mutated cancers
This trial tests a new oral drug (BBO-11818) for people with solid tumors that have a specific KRAS mutation. It's for those whose cancer has spread or cannot be removed by surgery and who have not had other cancers recently.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07458347RecruitingPhase 1
A new oral drug for KRAS-mutated advanced cancer
This trial tests a new oral drug, KST-6051, for people with advanced solid tumors (like lung, pancreatic, colon, or other cancers) that have a specific KRAS gene mutation. The goal is to find the best dose and see if it's safe.

What taking part in a pdac 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.

Common questions
- Are there pdac clinical trials in Massachusetts?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 18 recruiting pdac studies with a site in Massachusetts, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a pdac study in Massachusetts?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Massachusetts to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Massachusetts, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a pdac trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
