Recurrent Glioblastoma clinical trials in Pennsylvania
We’re tracking 9 recruiting recurrent glioblastoma studies with a site in Pennsylvania — including Early Phase 1, Phase 1, Phase 1/Phase 2, Phase 2/Phase 3 and Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Pennsylvania
- NCT06613841RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Brain tumor imaging study for glioblastoma patients
This study uses special PET scans (fluciclovine and FDG) and advanced MRI to create a detailed metabolic profile of glioblastoma. It may help doctors better understand your tumor before surgery.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - 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.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05432804RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Selinexor added to temozolomide for recurring brain glioblastoma
This trial studies whether adding selinexor to the standard chemotherapy temozolomide (with radiation) can better treat glioblastoma that has come back after prior treatment. If you meet specific tumor, health, and lab requirements, the goal is to slow tumor growth or improve symptoms.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06860594RecruitingPhase 1
Triapine plus radiation for recurrent brain tumors
This trial tests whether adding an experimental drug called triapine to a second round of radiation therapy can help treat brain tumors that have come back after initial treatment. It may be a good option for people with recurrent glioblastoma or astrocytoma who meet safety criteria.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 2–21 - 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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07209241RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T cell therapy for recurrent glioblastoma
This study tests a new type of immunotherapy called CAR-T cells that are designed to attack two markers on your brain tumor cells (EGFR and IL13Ra2). The goal is to find the best way to give these cells after surgery and see if they can help control the tumor.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Allentown, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT05283330RecruitingPhase 1
Tested 212Pb imaging drug for certain advanced GRPR tumors
This early-phase study tests how safe and tolerable an experimental radiation drug is for adults with certain advanced or metastatic cancers that show a target called GRPR. Doctors will also use special scans to confirm the tumor has the target so the treatment can be delivered to the right place.

What taking part in a recurrent glioblastoma 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 recurrent glioblastoma clinical trials in Pennsylvania?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 9 recruiting recurrent glioblastoma studies with a site in Pennsylvania, 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 recurrent glioblastoma study in Pennsylvania?
- 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 Pennsylvania to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Pennsylvania, 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 recurrent glioblastoma 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.
Not the right time?
New recurrent glioblastoma studies open in Pennsylvania regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
