Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05734066RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Lurbinectedin drug study for young people with Ewing sarcoma
This trial tests lurbinectedin, a cancer medicine, by itself (no other drugs) in children and young adults whose Ewing sarcoma has come back or did not respond to prior treatment. It aims to see how safe the drug is and whether it can help control the cancer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 2–30 - NCT02012699Recruiting
Cancer registry for people with or at risk of cancer
This trial collects health information and samples (a “cancer repository”) to help researchers study cancer and cancer risk. You may be able to join if you’ve had cancer before or if you’re at higher risk or have concerning findings.
Randallstown, MarylandAges 19–110 - NCT06066138RecruitingPhase 1
Trial: Adjusting Atezolizumab Dose Based on Drug Levels in Blood
This study tests whether adjusting the dose of the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab (Tecentriq) based on its levels in your blood works well. You may be able to join if you have advanced cancer and your doctor already plans to give you this drug (alone or with other approved treatments).
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06375122Recruiting
A study of Kaposi sarcoma over time
This study follows people with Kaposi sarcoma to learn more about the disease and how it changes over time. It may help doctors better understand and treat KS in the future.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06503146RecruitingPhase 2
New imaging tracer for detecting various cancers
This trial tests a new imaging agent, [18F]FAPI-74, which might help detect certain cancers more clearly. The scan looks for a protein called fibroblast activation protein (FAP) that is often found in tumors. If you have one of the listed cancers and are about to start treatment, this study could help doctors see where the cancer is and how it responds to therapy.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT07308886RecruitingPhase 2
CYT107 for Kaposi sarcoma in HIV patients with low CD4
This trial tests an experimental drug (CYT107) that boosts the immune system to help fight Kaposi sarcoma in people with HIV who have a low CD4 count despite good HIV treatment. It aims to see if the drug can improve KS tumors and quality of life.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT00006518Recruiting
Tissue samples from people with viral infections or cancer
This study collects tissue and blood samples from people who have or have been exposed to certain viruses (HIV, KSHV, HPV, EBV, or HTLV-1) or who have developed cancer or precancerous skin lesions. The samples help researchers understand how these viruses may lead to cancer.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT02390752RecruitingPhase 1
Early drug study for children and young adults with hard-to-treat cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests pexidartinib (TURALIO) to see how safe it is and how well it works against refractory (hard-to-treat) leukemias and solid tumors, including tumors seen with NF1 and MPNST. It mainly helps researchers learn the best way to dose the medication and gather early signals of benefit.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–35 - NCT01109394Recruiting
Help study tumors with sample testing and a research biology library
This study collects tumor (or related) samples to analyze their genes and build a shared research “biobank.” It may help researchers understand cancers better for future diagnosis and treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 4 weeks+ - NCT06052618RecruitingPhase 2
Pacritinib for KSHV-associated Castleman disease and KICS
This study tests a drug called pacritinib for people with KSHV-associated multicentric Castleman disease (MCD) or KSHV-associated inflammatory cytokine syndrome (KICS). It aims to see if the drug can help control symptoms and inflammation caused by these conditions.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05333458RecruitingPhase 2
Atezolizumab plus selinexor for advanced alveolar soft tissue sarcoma
This Phase 2 trial tests whether combining atezolizumab with selinexor can slow or shrink advanced alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) in people age 12 and older. It may help by improving the immune system’s ability to fight the cancer and stopping cancer cell growth signals.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 12 years+ - NCT03300830Recruiting
Testing tumors linked to viruses, HIV, and immune disorders
This study collects and analyzes tumor tissue to learn what drives certain cancers and growths linked to viruses, HIV, and immune system problems. Results may help researchers understand disease causes and point to better future treatments.

What taking part in a sarcoma 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.
