Recruiting studies in New Jersey
- NCT06422806RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy plus chemo for aggressive sarcoma
This trial compares a combination of immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) plus chemotherapy (doxorubicin) versus chemotherapy alone for people with aggressive, poorly differentiated sarcomas that have spread or cannot be removed. The goal is to see if adding immunotherapy helps shrink tumors or slow their growth better than chemotherapy alone.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT03442465Recruiting
Study of healing and function after bone reconstruction surgery
This study looks at how well people heal and how well they can move and use the repaired bone after reconstructive surgery for bone tumors. It may help doctors understand what recovery looks like and what could improve function over time.
Middletown, New JerseyAges 4 years+ - NCT04332874RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab with local limb chemotherapy for sarcoma in arms or legs
This trial tests whether giving pembrolizumab along with chemotherapy delivered directly into an arm or leg (isolated limb infusion) can shrink sarcoma tumors. It is for people with advanced or metastatic sarcoma in an arm or leg who can safely have this local treatment.
Middletown, New JerseyAges 12 years+ - NCT06129903Recruiting
Early psychiatric help for people with sarcoma
This study tests if getting a psychiatric consultation soon after a sarcoma diagnosis can improve mental health and quality of life. If you have a new sarcoma and need surgery at MSK, you may be able to join.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT03244020Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Aspirin or low-dose blood thinner after bone or leg surgery
This trial compares aspirin versus a low-dose injectable blood thinner (LMWH) to prevent blood clots after certain orthopedic cancer surgeries. It may help lower the risk of dangerous clotting while balancing bleeding and side effects.
Camden, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06465199RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Eflornithine and AMXT 1501 for Advanced Childhood Cancers
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (eflornithine and AMXT 1501) for children and young adults with certain types of cancer that have relapsed or not responded to standard treatment, or for a specific brain tumor (DIPG) at diagnosis. The goal is to see if this drug pair is safe and effective.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges Up to 26 years - NCT00579566Recruiting
Research study using removed tissue from soft-tissue sarcoma
This study looks at tissue (samples taken during diagnosis or treatment) to learn new biological and molecular clues about soft-tissue sarcoma. Participating mainly helps researchers collect usable tissue that would otherwise be discarded.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges Any age - NCT07089992RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab for ultra-rare sarcoma types
This trial tests whether pembrolizumab, an immunotherapy that helps your immune system attack cancer cells, can shrink or slow growth in several ultra-rare sarcoma types that have come back or spread. It may be an option if your previous treatments have stopped working.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04031677RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery with or without chemotherapy for high-risk retroperitoneal sarcoma
This trial studies whether adding chemotherapy before surgery helps people with high-risk retroperitoneal (abdominal-area) leiomyosarcoma or liposarcoma. The goal is to improve outcomes while comparing surgery alone versus surgery plus neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
Paramus, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05726383RecruitingPhase 2
Mistletoe shots for lung-spread osteosarcoma after surgery
This trial tests Iscador P, a mistletoe-based immunotherapy given as skin injections, to help stop or control recurrent, resected osteosarcoma that has spread to the lungs. It’s for people who already had all visible lung metastases removed and are now trying to stay in remission.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 8–30 - NCT06113315Enrolling by invitation
Collecting samples and data from sarcoma patients on immunotherapy
This study collects tissue samples and medical data from people with sarcoma who are receiving or will receive immunotherapy. Its goal is to learn more about how these treatments work against sarcoma.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges Any age - 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.
Englewood, New JerseyAges 40–75 - NCT06395103RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Zilovertamab vedotin for blood cancers and solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called zilovertamab vedotin for children and young adults with certain blood cancers or solid tumors. The drug is designed to target and kill cancer cells, and the study will see if it is safe and effective.
New Brunswick, New JerseyAges 6 months–25 years - NCT05108298Recruiting
Study to improve cancer survey reporting for young adults
This study focuses on collecting better self-reported information (from questionnaires) from young adults with cancer. It may help improve how future cancer trials understand symptoms and quality-of-life needs.
Teaneck, New JerseyAges 18–39 - NCT05735184RecruitingPhase 1
Ziftomenib with AML medicines for NPM1- or KMT2A-mutated leukemia
This Phase 1 trial tests how safe and tolerable ziftomenib is when combined with standard AML medicines (like venetoclax and azacitidine, and other chemo options) in people with AML. It’s for AML patients who have specific genetic changes (NPM1 mutation or KMT2A rearrangement) and helps doctors find the best, safest dose plan.
New Brunswick, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05837767Recruiting
Radiation study for tumors that spread to soft tissue areas
This study looks at how a planned form of palliative radiation therapy treats certain solid cancers that have spread outside the brain to larger soft-tissue areas. It may help shrink tumors and relieve symptoms, but it also asks you to meet specific safety and treatment-timing rules.
Montvale, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05859074RecruitingPhase 1
Testing MQ710 injections alone or with pembrolizumab for advanced cancers
This early-phase study tests MQ710, a medicine given by injection into a reachable tumor, to see how well it can control advanced cancers. Some participants also receive pembrolizumab, an immunotherapy, to help the immune system fight the cancer.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06021626RecruitingPhase 1
Study of CRD3874-SI for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called CRD3874-SI for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and can shrink tumors.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06541262RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Silmitasertib plus chemo for relapsed solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, silmitasertib, combined with standard chemotherapy for children and young adults with cancers that have come back or not responded to treatment. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or stop them from growing.

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.
