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+ - NCT06636682RecruitingPhase 2
Vaccine for men with high-risk prostate cancer after surgery
This trial tests a personalized vaccine (FK-PC101) given after prostate removal surgery for men with high-risk prostate cancer. It aims to see if the vaccine can help prevent the cancer from coming back without the need for additional hormone therapy or radiation.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Any age - 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+ - 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 - NCT07115914Recruiting
PSMA PET scan to monitor prostate cancer after focal therapy
This trial uses a special PET scan (PSMA PET) to check if prostate cancer returns after focused treatment (focal therapy). It may help find any remaining cancer that standard scans miss.
Chicago, 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+ - 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.
Evanston, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06215508Recruiting
Smartwatch and geriatric assessment for older men with prostate cancer
This trial tests whether using a smartwatch along with a geriatric assessment can help doctors better manage the health of older men with metastatic prostate cancer who are about to start a new type of hormone therapy. It aims to improve quality of life and treatment outcomes.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 minutes+ - 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+ - 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 - 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+ - NCT06778863RecruitingPhase 1
A study of CLSP-1025 for adults with certain solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called CLSP-1025 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific change in the p53 gene (R175H). The drug targets this change to help fight the cancer.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06616155RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Ruxolitinib and Enzalutamide for Resistant Prostate Cancer
This trial tests two drugs—ruxolitinib and enzalutamide—together to see if they can help men whose prostate cancer has spread and stopped responding to abiraterone. It is for those whose cancer grew quickly on abiraterone.
Chicago, 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.
Naperville, IllinoisAges 18 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+ - 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+ - 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.
Glenview, 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+ - 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.
Elmhurst, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05852041RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET-MRI scan to find prostate cancer before active surveillance
This early-phase study tests a special PET-MRI scan using rhPSMA-73 to better detect prostate cancer areas in men who would otherwise choose active surveillance. It may help doctors see where (and how much) cancer is present before deciding on treatment.
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.
Skokie, 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+ - 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.
Evanston, 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.

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.
