Recruiting studies in Massachusetts
- NCT07140900RecruitingPhase 1
Study of xaluritamig combined with hormone therapy for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug, xaluritamig, given with standard hormone therapy for men with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) and is still sensitive to hormone therapy. It aims to see if the combination is safe and works better than hormone therapy alone.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06451497RecruitingPhase 1
Testing ZM008 alone and with toripalimab for advanced cancers
This trial tests a new drug called ZM008, which targets a protein on some cancer cells, first alone and then combined with another drug, toripalimab, for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06465069RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new drug for advanced bladder and other solid tumors
This study tests a new drug (LY4052031) for people with several types of advanced solid tumors, especially bladder cancer. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective when given alone or after other treatments have stopped working.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06991556RecruitingPhase 2
Testing JSB462 plus abiraterone for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug called JSB462 combined with abiraterone in men with prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and is still responding to hormone therapy. The goal is to see if this combination works better than current treatments.

Newton, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04115254Recruiting
MRI-guided focused radiation for certain tumors
This study tests a type of high-precision radiation guided by MRI pictures to treat certain cancers. It may help doctors deliver radiation more accurately while avoiding nearby healthy tissue, but you must be able to safely complete an MRI scan and meet tumor-size and health requirements.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05765500RecruitingPhase 2
Relugolix vs leuprolide to improve prostate cancer quality of life
This Phase 2 study compares two medicines that lower testosterone—relugolix tablets versus leuprolide injections—to see which better improves quality of life. It’s for people with prostate cancer who are starting hormone treatment and have not used similar testosterone-lowering drugs before.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07206056RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of tulmimetostat and luxdegalutamide for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two drugs for men whose prostate cancer has spread and is no longer controlled by hormone therapy. The study aims to see if this treatment can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05926102Recruiting
Screening study for prostate cancer risk and access
This study looks at how genetic risk and regular screening can help find prostate cancer earlier. It may help you and other Veterans understand what screening is best for different risk levels and access needs.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 55–69 - NCT03972657RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new prostate and kidney cancer drug with immunotherapy
This early trial tests whether REGN5678 (nezastomig) is safe and how well it works, either by itself or with an immunotherapy drug (cemiplimab). It targets adults with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer and certain metastatic kidney cancers that have already been treated.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06302595Recruiting

Boston, MassachusettsAges 30 years+ - NCT04188535Recruiting
MRI scans during radiation treatment
This study does repeated MRI (detailed brain/body imaging) while you receive radiation therapy. It aims to see how these serial scans relate to treatment and outcomes, which could help improve care planning for different cancers.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06549465RecruitingPhase 2
Ac-225 rosopatamab for PSMA-positive castration-resistant prostate cancer
This trial tests a radioactive drug (Ac-225 rosopatamab tetraxetan) that targets a protein called PSMA on prostate cancer cells. It is for patients whose cancer has stopped responding to hormone therapy and has spread to other parts of the body.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07336446RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing AZD9750 for metastatic prostate cancer with or without other drugs
This trial is for men with metastatic prostate cancer that has gotten worse despite treatment. It tests a new drug called AZD9750, given alone or with other cancer drugs, to see if it is safe and works well.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05983432RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BL-B01D1 for advanced lung and other solid tumors

Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05652686RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Studying PT217 for neuroendocrine cancers
This trial tests a new drug called Peluntamig (PT217) for people with certain types of neuroendocrine cancers, like small cell lung cancer. It aims to see if the drug can help when standard treatments stop working or aren't an option.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06862856Recruiting
PET Scan for Men With Very Low PSA After Prostate Surgery
This trial tests a PET scan (flotufolastat F 18) to find tiny prostate cancer cells in men whose PSA is very low but still rising after prostate removal. It may help guide further treatment decisions.

Boston, MassachusettsAges 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.

Test drug tulmimetostat for advanced cancers and lymphomas
This early-phase study tests tulmimetostat (DZR123) to shrink or control advanced solid tumors and certain lymphomas, and it may also test a combination in some prostate cancer groups. If you qualify, you’ll receive the study drug and be monitored closely, including blood tests and a request for tumor tissue to look for biomarkers.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07164443RecruitingPhase 3
Study comparing pasritamig to placebo for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a new drug called pasritamig against a placebo for people with advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to hormone therapy and chemotherapy. The goal is to see if pasritamig can help slow the cancer's growth.

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.

Common questions
- Are there prostate cancer clinical trials in Massachusetts?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 84 recruiting prostate cancer studies with a site in Massachusetts, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a prostate cancer study in Massachusetts?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Massachusetts to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Massachusetts, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a prostate cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
