Recruiting studies near San Francisco
- NCT05786924RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted cancer drug study for RAS/RAF mutation-positive tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests S241656 (a targeted cancer medicine) in people whose cancers have certain “RAS/RAF” gene changes. It may help shrink tumors or control cancer growth, and also finds the safest dose and best way to use the drug.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06961084RecruitingPhase 2
I-124 PET/CT scan for diagnosing thyroid cancer
This trial tests whether a new type of scan (I-124 PET/CT) can better detect thyroid cancer compared to standard scans. It may help doctors decide on the best treatment, such as radiation therapy or surgery.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 13 years+ - NCT04216732Recruiting
Study of medullary thyroid cancer progression in a registry
This study follows people with medullary thyroid cancer to better understand how the disease changes over time, including in advanced stages. You may help improve future treatment planning and care for people with medullary thyroid cancer.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05538130RecruitingPhase 1
Study medicine for BRAF-mutated advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 trial studies how PF-07799544 works and what dose is safest in people with advanced cancer that has a specific genetic change called BRAF V600. You may receive it alone or with another treatment, depending on the tumor group, to see if it can treat the cancer.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 16 years+ - NCT05783323RecruitingPhase 2
Larotrectinib plus radiation for thyroid cancer with NTRK fusion
This Phase 2 trial tests larotrectinib (a targeted medicine) to help radioactive iodine (RAI) work better in people with differentiated thyroid cancer that has an NTRK gene fusion. It may improve how much thyroid cancer the RAI can reach and shrink.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 2–99 - NCT06458036RecruitingPhase 2
Selpercatinib before radioactive iodine for RET-positive thyroid cancer
This study tests whether a targeted drug called selpercatinib, taken before radioactive iodine therapy, can help treat thyroid cancer in children and young adults who have a specific genetic change (RET fusion or mutation). The drug may make the cancer more sensitive to the radioactive iodine treatment that follows.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 2–25 - NCT05024929Recruiting
Test targeted drugs to help radioactive iodine reach thyroid cancer
This study looks at whether certain cancer “targeted therapy” medicines can make radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy work better for thyroid cancer that has spread to the lungs. It also involves taking special whole-body scans to measure how much radioactive iodine gets taken up by the cancer.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges birth+ - 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.
Emeryville, CaliforniaAges 40–75 - NCT06475989RecruitingPhase 3
Targeted Drug Combo vs. Chemo for Advanced Thyroid Cancer
This study tests a new combination of targeted drugs (dabrafenib and trametinib) compared to chemotherapy (cabozantinib) for people with a specific type of advanced thyroid cancer called BRAF-mutated differentiated thyroid cancer. The goal is to see which treatment works better.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 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.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–75

What taking part in a thyroid cancer 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.
