Recruiting studies near Nashville
- NCT07188896RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy combinations for advanced kidney cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy drugs (fianlimab, cemiplimab, and possibly ipilimumab) compared to another immunotherapy combo (ipilimumab + nivolumab) for people with advanced kidney cancer who have not had previous treatment. The goal is to see which combination works better.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05361720RecruitingPhase 2
Genetic test to match treatment for advanced kidney cancer
This study looks at genetic (RNA) testing of kidney cancer tissue to help choose the best drug treatment. It may help guide therapy for people with advanced or metastatic clear cell kidney cancer who are starting treatment for the first time.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05987241RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Using a blood test to guide immunotherapy after bladder/kidney cancer surgery
This study tests whether a blood test that detects tumor DNA can help guide the use of immunotherapy (nivolumab with or without relatlimab) after surgery for urothelial cancer. The goal is to see if starting immunotherapy based on the blood test results can prevent the cancer from coming back.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 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.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06661720RecruitingPhase 3
Tivozanib and pembrolizumab after kidney cancer surgery
This trial is testing if adding the targeted therapy tivozanib to the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda) can help prevent kidney cancer from coming back after all known tumors have been removed by surgery.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07097142RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter radiation for bladder cancer with chemo
This trial tests if a shorter course of radiation therapy works as well as the usual longer course for people with bladder cancer who are also receiving standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if shorter treatment can reduce side effects while still being effective.

Bone Density Changes During Cancer Immunotherapy
This study tracks how a type of cancer treatment called anti-PD-1 immunotherapy affects bone strength over time. Researchers want to understand whether this treatment causes bone density loss and help develop ways to protect bones during cancer care.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06293898RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BL-M07D1 for HER2-positive solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, BL-M07D1, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a protein called HER2. It is for patients who have already tried at least two other standard treatments.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT04981119Recruiting
Test apheresis for CAR T manufacturing in HLA-A2 solid tumors
This trial studies how a process called apheresis is used to make CAR T cells for people with certain solid tumors. It is designed for tumors that have lost a specific immune marker (HLA-A*02), which may affect how well CAR T therapies work.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05901545RecruitingPhase 1
Test an iodine-labeled drug to map neck lymph nodes
This Phase 1 study tests a labelling of panitumumab with iodine (111In) to see how well it can identify lymph nodes in head and neck cancer before surgery. The goal is to improve lymph node staging (which can help guide treatment), with the main focus on safety and early performance.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 19 years+ - NCT06026410RecruitingPhase 1
KO-2806 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called KO-2806, alone or with other treatments, for people with advanced solid tumors that have specific gene changes (like HRAS or KRAS mutations). It may help if standard treatments have stopped working.

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.
