Recruiting studies near Philadelphia
- 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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06134232RecruitingPhase 2
Extra sipuleucel-T after Provenge for prostate cancer
This trial tests whether adding one extra infusion of sipuleucel-T (the same drug as Provenge) after the standard three doses can help men with advanced prostate cancer that no longer responds to hormone therapy. It is for men who have already finished their three Provenge infusions and have mild or no symptoms.
Bala-Cynwyd, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05413421RecruitingPhase 1
ORIC-944 for metastatic prostate cancer after hormone therapy
This early-phase trial tests ORIC-944 to see how well it works and what dose is safest for metastatic prostate cancer that has progressed after hormone-targeted pills. It may help people whose cancer has stopped responding to prior prostate cancer hormone treatments.
Bala-Cynwyd, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07225946RecruitingPhase 3
Study of pasritamig with docetaxel for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug called pasritamig combined with the chemotherapy docetaxel, compared to docetaxel alone, in men with prostate cancer that has spread and is no longer responding to hormone therapy.
Bala-Cynwyd, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Bala-Cynwyd, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04729114RecruitingPhase 1
Safety and dose test of PRL-02 shot for advanced prostate cancer
This Phase 1 study tests how safe PRL-02 depot (an injection) is and finds the best dose for men with advanced prostate cancer. It may help determine a new treatment option for cancers that have spread or are getting worse despite standard care.
Bala-Cynwyd, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06511141Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for men with overactive bladder
This study tests a nerve stimulation device placed near the tailbone to help men with overactive bladder symptoms. If you have bothersome urinary urgency or frequency, this treatment may offer relief without drugs.
Bala-Cynwyd, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Mullica Hill, New JerseyAges 40–75 - 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.
Chadds Ford, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06470243RecruitingPhase 3
Adding carboplatin to cabazitaxel for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests whether adding a chemotherapy drug called carboplatin to another chemotherapy called cabazitaxel works better than cabazitaxel alone for men with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and no longer responds to hormone therapy. All participants must have already had docetaxel chemotherapy.
Chadds Ford, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - 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.
Pennington, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07213674RecruitingPhase 3
A study of xaluritamig plus abiraterone for prostate cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs (xaluritamig plus abiraterone) for men with a type of advanced prostate cancer that is no longer responding to hormone therapy but has not yet been treated with chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this combination works better than the standard options your doctor might choose.
Newark, DelawareAges 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.
Newark, DelawareAges 50 years+ - 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.
Newark, DelawareAges 18 years+ - NCT06235151RecruitingPhase 3
Copper-64 PSMA PET scan for newly diagnosed prostate cancer
This trial tests a special PET scan that uses copper-64 to help find prostate cancer cells. It may help doctors better plan surgery and lymph node removal for men with higher-risk prostate cancer.
Princeton, New JerseyAges 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.

What taking part in a prostate cancer 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.
