Recruiting studies in Pennsylvania
- 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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Lancaster, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07222436Recruiting
Blood test for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial studies a blood test that looks for tumor DNA in men with high-risk or advanced prostate cancer. It may help doctors understand the cancer better and guide treatment decisions.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07219303Recruiting
Adaptive radiation therapy for intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests a type of radiation that adjusts to changes in your prostate during treatment. It aims to improve accuracy and reduce side effects for men with intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18–130 - NCT07111507RecruitingPhase 2
Tarlatamab for advanced prostate cancer
This trial tests a drug called tarlatamab for people with advanced prostate cancer that has a specific protein (DLL3) on their tumor cells. The goal is to see if tarlatamab can help shrink or slow the cancer.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07059884Recruiting
Exercise program to help people with cancer stay active
This trial tests a distance-based exercise program designed to help people on chemotherapy maintain their physical function and prevent disability. It is for patients with certain cancers who are working full-time and can participate in moderate physical activity.
Butler, 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+ - NCT06844383RecruitingPhase 2
Talazoparib with or without enzalutamide for prostate cancer after prior treatment
This study tests a drug called talazoparib, either alone or combined with enzalutamide, in people with prostate cancer that has spread and has a specific genetic change. The goal is to see if this treatment can help control the cancer after previous therapies have stopped working.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06613100RecruitingPhase 1
Xaluritamig before prostate surgery for high-risk prostate cancer
This study tests an experimental drug called xaluritamig given before surgery for men with localized prostate cancer that is intermediate or high risk. The goal is to see if it can help shrink the cancer before the prostate is removed.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06517901Recruiting
Comparing two MRI-guided biopsy methods for prostate cancer
This trial compares two ways to use MRI images during a prostate biopsy to see which finds cancer better. It looks at 'fusion' biopsy (where a computer combines MRI with live ultrasound) versus 'cognitive' biopsy (where the doctor mentally matches the MRI to the ultrasound).
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06457919RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tinengotinib with standard treatments for advanced prostate cancer
This study tests a new drug called tinengotinib combined with standard treatments for men with advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to abiraterone or enzalutamide. The goal is to see if the combination can help control the cancer.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06395519RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of ETX-19477 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental drug called ETX-19477 for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to other treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective, especially for those with certain genetic changes (BRCA2 mutations).
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - 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.
Gettysburg, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Scranton, PennsylvaniaAges 50 years+ - NCT05803941RecruitingPhase 4
Study long-term safety of a prostate cancer drug
This trial checks the long-term safety (how it affects you over time) of lutetium-177 vipivotide tetraxetan in people with prostate cancer. You may be eligible if you already received the related drug in a prior Novartis prostate cancer study and can complete the required follow-up tests.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18–100 - NCT05804318Recruiting
Adaptive daily radiation for low- and intermediate-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests a radiation plan that is adjusted every day using your own scans to better target prostate cancer. It may help reduce side effects while still treating the cancer effectively in men with lower- or intermediate-risk disease.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05627219Recruiting
Training men to share prostate cancer genetics info
This study tests a program that trains men (especially African American men) to help others understand prostate cancer genetic counseling and testing. It may improve access to this information by using peer support and patient navigation.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18–100 - NCT05487846Recruiting
Peer support during genetic testing for metastatic prostate cancer
This trial offers support from a trained peer to help African American men understand and go through genetic testing for prostate cancer. It may help you feel less overwhelmed and better prepared during the testing and decision-making process.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05422911RecruitingPhase 2
Abiraterone, enzalutamide, or apalutamide for early castration prostate cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether abiraterone, enzalutamide, or apalutamide can work better (or differently) in men with prostate cancer that is considered “castration-sensitive.” It compares these hormone-blocking treatments to find an approach that controls the cancer more effectively and safely.
Philadelphia, 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.

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.
