Recruiting studies in Ohio
- NCT02693535RecruitingPhase 2
Match FDA cancer drugs to a tumor gene change
This trial tests FDA-approved cancer medicines in people with advanced cancer whose tumor has a specific gene or protein abnormality. It tries to see whether targeting that tumor “fingerprint” can help when standard treatments no longer work.
West Chester, OhioAges 12 years+ - NCT03486873RecruitingPhase 3
Study extension for people on pembrolizumab, testing long-term safety
This trial follows people with advanced tumors who are already on pembrolizumab (or similar treatment) to check long-term safety and effectiveness. It may help your care team by monitoring benefits and side effects over a longer period.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06605404Recruiting
Pan-tumor study of a blood test after cancer surgery
This study is testing a new blood test that looks for leftover cancer cells after surgery. It is for people with different types of solid tumors who are planning to have surgery to cure their cancer. The goal is to see if the test can help guide future treatment decisions.

Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05761223RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of FB849 for adults with measurable cancer lesions
This early-stage trial tests whether FB849 is safe and tolerable, how the body handles it, and whether it shows any early signs of helping cancer. You may be able to join if you’re an adult with at least one measurable tumor spot and your health tests meet study requirements.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04142437Recruiting
Tracking how larotrectinib works for NTRK fusion cancers in routine care
This study follows people with cancers that have an NTRK gene fusion to learn how safe and effective larotrectinib is during everyday treatment. It may help confirm whether this medicine works well in real-world patients and side effects stay manageable.
Youngstown, OhioAges Any age - NCT07192432RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for HER2-positive cancer
This trial tests a new gene therapy for people with HER2-positive cancer. It is for two groups: those with advanced cancer that has worsened after treatment, and those with early-stage cancer at high risk of coming back. The goal is to see if the therapy can safely help shrink tumors or prevent return.

This study tests a new drug called ART0380 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It may be especially helpful for those with certain DNA repair gene changes (like ATM or BRCA). The drug will be given alone or with chemotherapy (gemcitabine or irinotecan) depending on the part of the trial.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05503797RecruitingPhase 2
Study of FORE8394 for cancers with BRAF changes
This trial tests a new drug, FORE8394, for people whose cancers have a change in the BRAF gene. It may be an option if you have a solid tumor or brain tumor that has not responded to other treatments.
Colombus, OhioAges 8 years+ - NCT06771219RecruitingPhase 1

What taking part in a solid tumor 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.

- Are there solid tumor clinical trials in Ohio?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 168 recruiting solid tumor studies with a site in Ohio, 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 solid tumor study in Ohio?
- 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 Ohio to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Ohio, 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 solid tumor 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.
