You may be eligible if your disease has specific measurable signs and your blood counts and organs are healthy enough for study treatment.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05890352RecruitingPhase 2
Add new medicines to standard treatment for returning lymphoma
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding tafasitamab, lenalidomide, tazemetostat, and zanubrutinib (along with standard lymphoma treatment) can improve outcomes in people whose large B-cell lymphoma has returned or not responded. It may help control disease more effectively and improve response duration for eligible patients.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05892393RecruitingPhase 1
Scan test to find CD46-positive multiple myeloma lesions
This Phase 1 study tests a new special scan marker (a radioactive imaging agent) to see whether it can detect certain multiple myeloma spots in the body. If it works, it may help doctors better locate disease using a PET-style scan.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05948657Recruiting
PSMA PET-CT scan for men on prostate cancer surveillance
This study checks whether a special prostate scan called PSMA PET-CT (along with standard monitoring scans) can help guide care while you are on “active surveillance” instead of immediate treatment. It may help doctors track low-risk prostate cancer changes more accurately over time.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05994014Recruiting
Comparing two heart scans for artery blockages
This study compares two types of heart scans to see which one better finds blockages in the arteries of people with chest discomfort or shortness of breath when active. You will have both a special CT scan and a PET/CT scan to check the health of your heart arteries.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06015880RecruitingPhase 1
Combination drug therapy for relapsed or resistant large B-cell lymphoma
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (mosunetuzumab, polatuzumab vedotin, and lenalidomide) for people with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (a type of blood cancer) that has come back or not responded to previous treatment. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06048250RecruitingPhase 1
Mezigdomide after Abecma for multiple myeloma
This trial tests a new drug called mezigdomide (CC-92480) for people with multiple myeloma who have already received the CAR T-cell therapy Abecma. The goal is to see if mezigdomide can help keep the cancer under control after Abecma.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06055881Recruiting
Using radiation to delay changing treatment for breast cancer
This trial tests whether giving radiation to a few growing spots (1-3) can let you stay on your current drug longer, instead of switching to a new one right away. It's for people with metastatic breast cancer whose disease has been stable for months but now shows limited progression.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06058663RecruitingPhase 1
Radiation and immunotherapy for advanced bile duct cancer
This trial tests combining a targeted radiation treatment (radioembolization) with two immunotherapy drugs (tremelimumab and durvalumab) for people with advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma that cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to shrink tumors and control cancer spread to lymph nodes or one other organ.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06113510Recruiting
Clot imaging for heart attacks with clear arteries
This study uses a special type of MRI to look for tiny blood clots in the heart arteries that may have caused a heart attack even when standard tests show no major blockages. It aims to better understand the cause of heart attacks in people with this uncommon pattern.
EdinburghAges 18 years+ - NCT06145633RecruitingPhase 2
Vorinostat and 177Lu-PSMA-617 for PSMA-Low prostate cancer
This trial tests two drugs: vorinostat (a pill that may make cancer cells easier to target) and 177Lu-PSMA-617 (a radioactive drug that seeks out prostate cancer cells). It is for men with a specific type of advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy and shows low levels of PSMA on a PET scan.
Seattle, WashingtonAges Any age - NCT06200103RecruitingPhase 2
Can we pause 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy after a good response?
This trial tests whether it's safe to pause 177Lu-PSMA-617 therapy in men whose prostate cancer has responded very well to it. Doctors want to see if taking a break from treatment can reduce side effects without letting the cancer come back.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06216249RecruitingPhase 2
Flexible dosing of Lu-PSMA for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a flexible dosing schedule of a targeted radiation drug (Lu-PSMA) for men with metastatic prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy and chemotherapy. It aims to see if adjusting the treatment schedule can improve outcomes while reducing side effects.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06244004RecruitingPhase 2
PET-guided radiation for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer
This trial tests whether using a special PET scan (FDG-PET) to find and treat only the spots where cancer has spread with targeted radiation can help men with prostate cancer that has spread but still responds to hormone therapy. It compares standard treatment alone to standard treatment plus this targeted radiation.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06288113RecruitingPhase 2
Re-treatment with 177Lu-PSMA-617 for prostate cancer
This trial tests if a second round of a targeted radiation therapy (177Lu-PSMA-617) can help men whose prostate cancer has returned after a successful first treatment. It is for men whose cancer has stopped responding to hormone therapy and chemotherapy, and whose PSA levels have risen again after a prior good response to this drug.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT06320405RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Combination therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—axatilimab, retifanlimab, and paclitaxel—for people with advanced solid tumors that have spread. It aims to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth, and it is for people who have already tried taxane chemotherapy.
Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT03942328RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immune cell vaccine plus checkpoint treatment after liver radiation
This trial tests a combination of a personalized immune cell treatment (made from your own cells) and a pneumococcal vaccine along with an “immune checkpoint” drug after high-dose radiation for certain unresectable liver cancers. The goal is to help your immune system better attack the cancer and to see how safe and effective this approach is.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05672251RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two antibody drugs for lymphoma that came back
This Phase 2 trial tests two targeted antibody medicines—loncastuximab tesirine and mosunetuzumab—in people whose diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) or follicular lymphoma grade 3B has come back or did not respond. It aims to shrink lymphoma that has measurable disease and has specific markers (CD19 and CD20) on tumor cells.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06357676RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Glofitamab, Ibrutinib and Obinutuzumab for Untreated Mantle Cell Lymphoma

Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT06358222Recruiting
Lung cancer trial testing blood test and PET scan for spread
This trial studies if a blood test that looks for tumor DNA combined with a PET-CT scan can better predict if lung cancer has spread to lymph nodes. It may help guide treatment decisions for people with non-small cell lung cancer that hasn't been treated yet.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06372444Recruiting
Kidney injury in severe infections study
This study looks at how severe infections like sepsis can hurt the kidneys. By using special scans (PET-CT), researchers hope to better understand why this happens, which could lead to better treatments.
UppsalaAges 30 years+ - NCT06384222RecruitingPhase 2
MRI scan to monitor response to abiraterone before prostate surgery
This trial tests whether a special MRI scan can show how well the drug abiraterone works against high-risk prostate cancer before surgery. If you have high-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread, you might be able to take abiraterone for a few months and then have a prostatectomy, with the MRI helping your doctor see the drug's effect.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06442475RecruitingPhase 2
Low-dose mosunetuzumab for untreated indolent B-cell lymphoma
This trial tests a low dose of the drug mosunetuzumab for people with slow-growing B-cell lymphomas (follicular lymphoma or marginal zone lymphoma) who have not had any previous treatment. It aims to see if this drug can help control the disease with fewer side effects.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT06447103RecruitingPhase 2
New scan to find kidney cancer after surgery
