Recruiting studies near Kansas City
- NCT02012699Recruiting
Cancer registry for people with or at risk of cancer
This trial collects health information and samples (a “cancer repository”) to help researchers study cancer and cancer risk. You may be able to join if you’ve had cancer before or if you’re at higher risk or have concerning findings.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 19–110 - 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.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05011383RecruitingPhase 2
High dose testosterone for prostate cancer with ATM, CDK12, or CHEK2 changes
This trial is testing whether high doses of testosterone can help treat advanced prostate cancer in men who have a specific genetic change (ATM, CDK12, or CHEK2). It is for patients whose cancer has stopped responding to current hormone therapies.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06995898Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection
This study is testing a new blood test that may help find cancer early. You will give blood samples over a year, and researchers will check them for signs of cancer.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 45–75 - NCT04038502RecruitingPhase 2
Testing carboplatin or olaparib for gene-linked prostate cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether carboplatin or olaparib can help people with prostate cancer that has certain DNA repair gene changes. It’s designed for advanced (metastatic) prostate cancer that is growing despite standard hormone-blocking treatment.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT03866382RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus a targeted drug for rare genitourinary tumors
This Phase 2 study tests whether nivolumab and ipilimumab (immunotherapy drugs) plus cabozantinib (a targeted anti-cancer drug) can shrink or control rare cancers of the urinary/reproductive system that have spread. It may help by boosting the immune system and blocking cancer growth signals at the same time.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT03452774Recruiting
AI matches your cancer tests to possible treatment trials
This trial uses an AI system to help match people with certain cancer types and specific tumor test results (like gene or protein markers) to relevant clinical trials. It may help you and your doctor find studies that fit your cancer biology faster.
Kansas City, MissouriAges Any age - NCT04787744RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Test standard prostate cancer treatment with or without targeted spot radiation
This study tests whether adding targeted local treatment (like radiation to a few spots seen on scans) improves outcomes for some people with limited (oligometastatic) prostate cancer. It compares standard systemic therapy alone versus standard therapy plus PET-scan–guided spot treatment.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05838716RecruitingPhase 3
Vitamin D During Hormone Therapy for Prostate Cancer
This trial studies whether taking vitamin D while you are on prostate hormone therapy (ADT) affects your health outcomes. It may help by keeping vitamin D levels in a safe range during treatment.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 50 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.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 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.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18 years+ - 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.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 40–75 - NCT06274047RecruitingPhase 3
Hormone Therapy Timing for Prostate Cancer After Surgery
This trial compares two ways of giving hormone therapy (apalutamide) along with radiation after prostate removal surgery. It aims to see which approach helps maintain quality of life while controlling cancer.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06855277RecruitingPhase 3
AAA817 with hormone therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new combination treatment (AAA817 plus a hormone therapy) against standard care for men with advanced PSMA-positive prostate cancer that has spread and stopped responding to a previous hormone therapy. It may be an option if you haven't had certain prior treatments.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18–100 - NCT03802851Recruiting
Laser procedure before radiation for prostate cancer symptoms
This trial looks at whether doing a prostate “laser procedure” (called HoLEP) before starting radiation and hormone therapy can improve severe urinary symptoms and reduce urine retention problems. It is for people with prostate cancer who are planning radiation plus hormone treatment and who have significant bladder/urinary trouble.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT07745361RecruitingPhase 2
Study of MRT-2359 with apalutamide for prostate cancer
This trial tests a new oral drug, MRT-2359, combined with apalutamide (a standard hormone therapy) in men with a specific type of prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone treatment. The goal is to see if the combination can slow or stop the cancer's growth.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT05939414RecruitingPhase 3
Lutetium prostate cancer treatment for limited PSMA-spread
This Phase 3 trial compares a targeted radiation medicine called lutetium (177Lu) vipivotide tetraxetan versus watchful waiting in people with prostate cancer that has spread to only a few spots. The goal is to see if the treatment can better control the cancer when scans show a small amount of PSMA-positive metastases.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18–100 - NCT06632977RecruitingPhase 2
Matching targeted treatments to your prostate cancer's genetics
This trial is testing whether matching your cancer's specific genetic changes to a targeted treatment can help control metastatic prostate cancer that has stopped responding to standard hormone therapy and chemotherapy. You may receive a drug, a radioactive treatment, or a combination based on your tumor's molecular profile.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06780670RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Comparing a new drug to standard care for prostate cancer
This trial tests a new study drug (AAA817) against the usual treatments for men with a certain type of advanced prostate cancer that has spread and is no longer responding to a targeted radiation therapy (177Lu-PSMA). The goal is to see if the new drug can help control the disease longer.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18–100 - NCT03460977RecruitingPhase 1
Mevrometostat trial for hormone-resistant prostate cancer
This Phase 1 study tests mevrometostat (PF 06821497) in people with castration-resistant prostate cancer to see if it’s safe and how the body responds to it. It may be an option if your cancer is no longer controlled by hormone therapy and your organ health tests are within limits.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT05223803RecruitingPhase 2
Study radiation for early metastatic prostate cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests a radiation-focused approach for people with newly diagnosed (de novo) prostate cancer that has spread to a small number of spots, especially in bone. It aims to see how well the treatment controls the cancer while keeping side effects manageable.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT05489211RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a cancer drug for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 2 study tests the drug Dato-DXd (alone or with other cancer medicines) in people with advanced solid tumors. It looks for tumor shrinkage and how safely the treatment can be given.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18–130 - NCT06764485RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing a new drug to standard therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new medicine (BMS-986365) against the doctor's choice of standard therapy for men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. It aims to see which treatment works better and is safer.
Westwood, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT07190300RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing tulmimetostat with hormone therapy for metastatic prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug, tulmimetostat, combined with standard hormone therapies like darolutamide or abiraterone for men with metastatic prostate cancer that still responds to hormone treatment. The goal is to see if the combination works better than standard therapy alone.
