Recruiting studies in Illinois
- NCT07124000Recruiting
T-DXd for advanced HER2-positive solid tumors
This trial is for people with advanced HER2-positive solid tumors (cancers that cannot be removed by surgery or have spread). It tests the drug T-DXd (also called Enhertu) when your doctor has already decided it's the right treatment for you and you have no other good options.
Decatur, IllinoisAges 18–130 - NCT05743517Recruiting
Exercise program for older women with gynecologic cancer
This trial tests a physical activity (exercise) program for women over 60 who are being treated for cancers of the uterus, ovaries, cervix, or vulva/vagina. It may help improve strength and daily functioning during treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 60 years+ - NCT02012699Recruiting
Cancer registry for people with or at risk of cancer
This trial collects health information and samples (a “cancer repository”) to help researchers study cancer and cancer risk. You may be able to join if you’ve had cancer before or if you’re at higher risk or have concerning findings.
Aurora, IllinoisAges 19–110 - NCT00005095Recruiting
Ovarian cancer risk study: specimens and health data
This study collects tissue samples and medical information from people at higher risk for ovarian cancer or undergoing gynecologic surgery. Researchers use this data to develop better ways to detect and prevent ovarian cancer early.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–80 - NCT05640999RecruitingPhase 2
Trial for early uterine cancer with POLE mutation after surgery
This Phase 2 trial studies an added (adjuvant) treatment for early-stage uterine cancer that has a specific genetic change called POLE mutation and does not have a p53 abnormal pattern. The goal is to lower the risk of the cancer coming back after surgery.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05051722Recruiting
Test DNA blood and tissue markers to detect gynecologic cancers
This study looks for “methylated DNA markers” (special DNA patterns) to help detect endometrial, ovarian, and cervical cancers, and to support doctors around planned procedures. It may help find cancer earlier or better sort out who needs closer treatment.
Evergreen Park, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT03422198RecruitingPhase 3
Short course vaginal radiation after hysterectomy
This trial tests a short course of targeted vaginal radiation (brachytherapy) after surgery for certain early endometrial cancer. It may help prevent the cancer from coming back in the vaginal area after the uterus has been removed.
Maywood, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT05256225RecruitingPhase 3
Adding Herceptin medicines to chemo for HER2-positive endometrial cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding Herceptin Hylecta or Phesgo to standard chemotherapy works better than chemotherapy alone for HER2-positive serous endometrial cancer or carcinosarcoma. It may help by improving how well treatment controls or shrinks the cancer.

What taking part in a vaginal 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.

- Do I have to live in Illinois to take part?
