Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07277413RecruitingPhase 1
Study of IDE892 for advanced solid tumors with MTAP deletion
This study tests a new drug called IDE892, alone or in combination, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic change (MTAP deletion). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and whether it can shrink tumors.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05176483RecruitingPhase 1
New drug combinations for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called zanzalintinib, which may slow or shrink various types of advanced cancer. It is given together with other cancer treatments, and the study is looking at many different cancers including kidney, prostate, bladder, lung, liver, and more.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07221942RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab and Enfortumab Vedotin for Advanced Bladder Cancer
This trial tests a two-drug combination (pembrolizumab and enfortumab vedotin) followed by maintenance pembrolizumab for people with advanced bladder cancer that has not been treated before. The goal is to see if this approach helps control the cancer for longer.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06356155RecruitingPhase 2
Study of two drugs before surgery for upper tract cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab, given before surgery for upper tract urothelial cancer. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes for patients who are candidates for surgery.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06966024RecruitingPhase 1
Study of DCC-2812 for advanced genitourinary cancers
This trial tests an experimental pill called DCC-2812 for people with advanced kidney, bladder, or prostate cancer. The goal is to see if it is safe and if it might help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06396533Recruiting
Improving cancer staging before bladder removal surgery
This trial tests if adding a special CT scan before bladder removal helps find muscle-invasive bladder cancer earlier. It includes people with different stages of bladder cancer who are planning to have their bladder removed.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07061964RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy and radiation to save the bladder
This trial tests whether combining immunotherapy and low-dose radiation after chemotherapy can help you avoid bladder removal. It's for people whose muscle-invasive bladder cancer has shrunk significantly after initial treatment.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07265947RecruitingPhase 2
Testing dabogratinib for low-grade upper tract bladder cancer
This trial tests a new targeted therapy pill, dabogratinib, for people with low-grade upper tract urothelial carcinoma (a type of cancer in the tubes that carry urine from kidneys to bladder). It may be an option if you have tumor tissue left after a biopsy and haven't had certain prior treatments.
Radnor, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06695845RecruitingPhase 2
Study of zanidatamab for HER2-positive solid tumors
This trial tests a drug called zanidatamab in people with advanced solid tumors that have high levels of HER2 protein (called HER2-positive). It aims to see if zanidatamab can shrink or slow the growth of these tumors.
Horsham, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06770582RecruitingPhase 2
Adding immunotherapy to radiation for bladder cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab to radiation therapy works as well as or better than the usual chemotherapy given with radiation for a type of bladder cancer that has not invaded the muscle. It is for people whose cancer came back or has high-risk features and who would otherwise need to have their bladder removed.
Chadds Ford, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07097142RecruitingPhase 3
Shorter radiation for bladder cancer with chemo
This trial tests if a shorter course of radiation therapy works as well as the usual longer course for people with bladder cancer who are also receiving standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if shorter treatment can reduce side effects while still being effective.
Chadds Ford, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Bethlehem, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05239624RecruitingPhase 2
Enfortumab plus pembrolizumab for muscle-invasive bladder cancer
This Phase 2 study tests how well two anti-cancer medicines—enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab—work for people with muscle-invasive bladder cancer that has spread to nearby lymph nodes (but not distant organs). It may help shrink the cancer and improve treatment outcomes before or around planning major surgery.
Allentown, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06524544RecruitingPhase 3
Pembrolizumab and sacituzumab govitecan for advanced bladder cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination (pembrolizumab and sacituzumab govitecan) against standard treatment for advanced bladder cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery.

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.
