Recruiting studies near San Francisco
- NCT06273176Recruiting
Surgery with or without brain mapping for recurrent glioblastoma
This study is testing whether using a special brain-mapping technique during surgery helps people with recurrent glioblastoma. It compares standard surgery to surgery with mapping to see if it leads to better outcomes for tumors near important brain areas.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges Up to 90 years - NCT04732065RecruitingPhase 1
ONC206 for certain brain tumors in children and young adults
This Phase 1 study tests ONC206, a new targeted medicine, for diffuse midline gliomas (DMG) with a specific gene change (H3K27 altered) and for some other recurrent brain/spinal cord cancers. It is designed to find the right dose and see whether it can control or shrink tumors after initial treatment or when the cancer returns.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 2–21 - NCT06186401RecruitingPhase 1
Experimental immune cell therapy for a specific type of brain cancer
This trial tests a personalized immune cell treatment for a glioblastoma brain tumor that has a specific marker called EGFRvIII. The cells are made in a lab and given by infusion, and the study aims to see if they can safely target and attack the tumor.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06069726RecruitingPhase 2
Testing atezolizumab for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests whether the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab can help people with glioblastoma that has come back after initial treatment. You will need to have a biopsy before starting the drug to confirm the tumor has returned.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05303467RecruitingPhase 1
Safety study of a glioblastoma device for recurring tumors
This early study tests whether a device called TheraSphere is safe when delivered into the brain to treat recurrent glioblastoma. It may help patients by trying a targeted treatment approach, while doctors carefully monitor side effects and safety.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06283927Recruiting
Surgery vs. medical care for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial compares surgery to the best non-surgical treatment for people whose glioblastoma has come back. The goal is to see which approach helps people live longer with a better quality of life.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT05902169RecruitingPhase 3
Ultrasound with carboplatin for recurrent glioblastoma
This trial tests a device that opens the blood-brain barrier using ultrasound, allowing chemotherapy to reach the brain tumor better. It compares this approach to standard chemotherapy for people whose glioblastoma has returned.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04427384Recruiting
Brain tumor patients treated with GammaTiles registry
This study is a patient registry for people with brain tumors who had surgery to remove as much as safely possible and then had GammaTiles placed. It mainly collects information and follow-up imaging to understand how patients do after the treatment.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT03970447RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing several treatment options for new or returning glioblastoma
This trial studies different treatment regimens for people with glioblastoma that is either newly diagnosed or has come back. It aims to find which treatment approach works best for controlling the tumor and improving outcomes.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05474378RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cell therapy for recurrent glioblastoma
This early-phase study tests a type of immune-cell treatment (CAR T cells) aimed at a target called B7-H3 in people with glioblastoma or related grade 4 brain tumors that have come back. It’s meant to see if the treatment can shrink the tumor or control the disease and to learn how safe it is.

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
