Recruiting studies in Illinois
- NCT06925737RecruitingPhase 3
Study of I-DXd for metastatic prostate cancer
This study tests a new drug called Ifinatamab Deruxtecan (I-DXd) for people with metastatic prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy. It may help by targeting and destroying cancer cells in a different way.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07005154RecruitingPhase 2
Study of ASP5541 for metastatic prostate cancer
This study tests an experimental drug called ASP5541 for men with metastatic prostate cancer (either hormone-sensitive or castration-resistant). It aims to see if the drug can slow cancer growth and improve outcomes when added to standard hormone therapy.
Chicago Ridge, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06785636RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New drug combination for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests a new drug (pocenbrodib) alone or combined with another hormone therapy (darolutamide) for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread. It is for those who have already tried Pluvicto and one other hormone therapy, but not yet chemotherapy.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04423211RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery-recovered prostate cancer treated with PET-guided radiation
This trial tests whether adding targeted radiation guided by a PET scan (along with hormone therapy) can improve outcomes for prostate cancer that has come back after surgery. The PET scan helps doctors look for spots outside the usual radiation area so treatment can be tailored.
Alton, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07028853RecruitingPhase 3
New drug combo for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests whether adding the investigational drug mevrometostat to the standard treatment enzalutamide works better than enzalutamide alone for men with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer). You may benefit if you haven't yet received chemotherapy or similar strong treatments for this stage of cancer.
Chicago Ridge, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05519449RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a PSMA-targeting treatment for advanced prostate cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests JANX007 in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (cancer that keeps growing despite standard hormone treatment). It aims to find a safe dose and see whether the treatment can shrink tumors or slow progression.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–100 - NCT06257693RecruitingPhase 1
Prostate cancer implant trial before prostate removal surgery
This trial tests a new enzalutamide implant (Enolen) placed in the prostate before surgery to see if it helps treat early prostate cancer. It is for men who are already planning to have their prostate removed.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 21 years+ - NCT06499870RecruitingPhase 2
Study of two drugs with radiation for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests whether combining two hormone therapy drugs, relugolix and enzalutamide, with radiation therapy can help treat very high-risk prostate cancer. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective for men whose cancer has a high chance of coming back.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06813898RecruitingEarly Phase 1
A New Scan for Early Prostate Cancer Recurrence
This study tests a new scanning method (rhPSMA-7.3 PET/CT) to detect prostate cancer recurrence when PSA is slightly high. If your PSA is low but rising, and standard scans haven't found cancer, this scan might help locate it.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Any age - 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.
Alton, IllinoisAges 40–75 - NCT07200830RecruitingPhase 3
Testing different schedules of a targeted radiation drug for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests two different dosing schedules of a drug called Lutetium-177 PSMA RLT, which delivers radiation directly to prostate cancer cells. It is for men with advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy and has spread, who have not yet had chemotherapy for this stage of the disease.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06931340RecruitingPhase 3
Adding chemo to hormone therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial is for men with metastatic prostate cancer that has already spread beyond the pelvis. It tests whether adding a chemotherapy drug (docetaxel) to the usual hormone therapy plus apalutamide can help control the cancer better than hormone therapy alone.
Bloomington, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07124000Recruiting
T-DXd for advanced HER2-positive solid tumors
This trial is for people with advanced HER2-positive solid tumors (cancers that cannot be removed by surgery or have spread). It tests the drug T-DXd (also called Enhertu) when your doctor has already decided it's the right treatment for you and you have no other good options.
Decatur, IllinoisAges 18–130 - NCT03151629Recruiting
Registry for men with advanced prostate cancer
This study is a worldwide registry that collects health information from men with advanced prostate cancer. It may help researchers better understand disease patterns and outcomes, which can guide future treatments.
Warrenville, IllinoisAges 21 years+ - NCT03678025RecruitingPhase 3
Standard treatment for metastatic prostate cancer, with or without local treatment
This Phase 3 trial studies whether using the usual medicines for metastatic prostate cancer, plus a definitive local treatment to the prostate, improves outcomes. It may help determine if treating the prostate directly can benefit people whose cancer has not worsened after initial hormone-based treatment.
Swansea, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06592924RecruitingPhase 3
Adding chemo to hormone therapy for prostate cancer with slow PSA drop
This trial tests if adding docetaxel chemotherapy helps men whose PSA hasn't dropped enough after at least 6 months of standard hormone therapy (ADT) plus an ARPI pill (like abiraterone or enzalutamide) for metastatic prostate cancer that still responds to hormones.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05691465RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation drug for metastatic prostate cancer with neuroendocrine cells
This Phase 2 study tests whether a radioactive medicine called lutetium Lu 177 dotatate is safe and effective for metastatic prostate cancer that has neuroendocrine features. It also checks whether patients’ scans show the cancer absorbs the drug (a requirement to start treatment).
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05710380Recruiting
MRI scans to guide biopsy for prostate cancer diagnosis
This study tests whether special MRI “risk maps” can help doctors better identify suspicious areas in the prostate during diagnosis. If you’re having an MRI followed by an MRI-guided biopsy, this may help improve how the biopsy targets areas of concern.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05726292RecruitingPhase 2
Enzalutamide plus relacorilant versus placebo for high-risk prostate cancer
This study tests whether adding relacorilant to enzalutamide (a hormone-blocking treatment) helps control high-risk localized prostate cancer better than enzalutamide plus a dummy pill. It may help prevent the cancer from growing or spreading by targeting a hormone pathway in addition to standard treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05800665RecruitingPhase 1
Study tests a new prostate cancer drug after prior hormone therapy
This Phase 1 study tests the safety, how the drug moves through the body, and whether it shows anti-cancer activity in men with advanced or metastatic prostate cancer. It is designed for people whose cancer has already been treated with certain hormone (androgen receptor) therapies.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05806515RecruitingPhase 2
Carboplatin before surgery for high-risk BRCA prostate cancer
This trial tests giving the chemotherapy drug carboplatin before surgery to treat people with high-risk prostate cancer and an inherited BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene change. The goal is to shrink or control the cancer before an operation and improve outcomes.
Glenview, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05946213RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter radiation treatment for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests whether a shorter course of radiation works as well as the usual longer course for people with high-risk prostate cancer. The goal is to keep cancer control while possibly reducing treatment time and inconvenience.
Crystal Lake, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05983432RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BL-B01D1 for advanced lung and other solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental drug called BL-B01D1 for people with several types of advanced solid tumors, especially non-small cell lung cancer and breast cancer. It's designed for those whose cancer has continued to grow after standard treatments.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06056830RecruitingPhase 3
PET scan for high-risk prostate cancer before surgery
This trial uses a special PET scan to find prostate cancer cells before surgery. It may help doctors see where the cancer is located and if it has spread.

What taking part in a prostate cancer (adenocarcinoma) 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.
