Recruiting studies in Pennsylvania
- NCT04715178Recruiting
Childhood cancer sample and data registry
This study collects stored samples (like blood or tissue) and health information from people affected by cancer at a young age, including some survivors. The goal is to build a library of specimens and data that researchers can use to better understand childhood and young adult cancers.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges Any age - NCT05006482RecruitingPhase 3
Geriatric education and care support for older cancer survivors
This study tests whether a structured health education and “older adult care” approach—done with your oncology team—can improve support for people after cancer. It includes older cancer survivors and a chosen caregiver, using in-person or video visits for follow-up.
Scranton, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05215353RecruitingPhase 4
Music therapy or talk therapy for anxiety after cancer
This study compares music therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to see which better reduces anxiety in people who have had cancer. You may be randomly assigned to one of the two therapy programs and will join sessions by video call.

BRIGHT program after head and neck cancer treatment

What taking part in a survivorship 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.

Common questions
- Are there survivorship clinical trials in Pennsylvania?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 5 recruiting survivorship studies with a site in Pennsylvania, 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 survivorship study in Pennsylvania?
- 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 Pennsylvania to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Pennsylvania, 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 survivorship 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.
