Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04693377Recruiting
Freezing tumor treatment plus targeted radiation for painful bone spread
This study tests whether combining a “freezing” procedure (cryoablation) with focused external radiation (SBRT) can reduce pain from bone metastases. It’s for people with certain cancers that have spread to bone and are having significant pain in a specific bone spot.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04762199RecruitingPhase 1
MRX-2843 with osimertinib for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This Phase 1 study tests whether combining MRX-2843 with osimertinib can help control advanced lung cancer that has specific EGFR gene changes. It is designed to find the safest dose and check early signs of tumor response.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04521764RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine for Metastatic Breast Cancer
This trial tests a vaccine (MV-s-NAP) that is injected directly into a tumor to stimulate your immune system against breast cancer. It is for people with metastatic breast cancer that has spread despite prior treatments.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04305834RecruitingPhase 2
Abemaciclib plus hormone pills for metastatic breast cancer in older adults
This Phase 2 study tests whether abemaciclib combined with standard hormone (endocrine) therapy can better control metastatic breast cancer in people age 70 and older. It may help if your cancer has already grown despite prior hormone therapy and/or other cancer medicines.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 70 years+ - NCT04181060RecruitingPhase 3
Osimertinib alone or with bevacizumab for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether starting osimertinib with or without bevacizumab helps people with advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer live longer and control the cancer better. Your EGFR mutation test result and past treatments are key to whether you can join.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT04151940Recruiting
PET/CT scan changes during chemo with immune therapy
This study looks at how PET/CT scan results change while you receive chemo plus an immune therapy (a PD-1/PD-L1 medicine) for stage IV lung cancer. The goal is to better understand what the scans mean during treatment, which may help guide care in the future.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT04090567RecruitingPhase 2
Olaparib with two partners for advanced BRCA breast cancer
This trial tests whether the drug olaparib works better when combined with cediranib or AZD6738 in people with advanced or metastatic BRCA (inherited) breast cancer. It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth after prior treatment with a PARP inhibitor.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04119024RecruitingPhase 1
Gene-edited immune cells for advanced melanoma or solid tumors
This Phase 1 study tests a gene-modified immune cell treatment for advanced cancers that don’t have standard curative options. It may help by attacking cancer cells that show a specific marker called IL13Rα2 after patients receive “conditioning” chemotherapy to prepare the immune system.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18–75 - NCT03968406RecruitingPhase 1
Talazoparib plus radiation for recurrent gynecologic cancers
This Phase 1 study tests whether the cancer drug talazoparib, combined with radiation, can better control recurrent gynecologic cancers in the pelvis/abdomen. It focuses on patients whose cancer has come back locally enough that radiation can be given, while other disease is not rapidly worsening.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03948100Recruiting
Yoga coaching for lung or esophageal cancer during radiation
This study tests whether a guided yoga program helps people with lung or esophageal cancer improve strength, daily functioning, and quality of life while they receive radiation therapy. It also involves a family caregiver, to support the patient during treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 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.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT03819296RecruitingPhase 1
Fecal transplant to treat cancer immunotherapy bowel side effects
This early-phase study tests whether changing your gut bacteria with a fecal transplant can improve diarrhea or colitis caused by cancer immunotherapy. It may help people whose symptoms have not fully settled with standard treatments like steroids and other immune-blocking medicines.

Panitumumab dye to help find lung cancer during surgery
This trial tests a special dye drug (panitumumab-IRDye800) that may help surgeons better see lung cancer areas while operating. If it works, it could improve how well cancer tissue is found and removed during planned lung surgery.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 19 years+ - NCT05717790Recruiting
Nimotuzumab with chemo and radiation for advanced nose cancer
This trial tests whether adding nimotuzumab (an anti-EGFR antibody) to standard chemotherapy and radiation can improve outcomes for people with advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. It may help the cancer respond better and control it more effectively after treatment.
