Find a clinical trial

A clinical trial is a research study that people can join. Some test a new treatment. Some test a new way to use a treatment we already have. Joining one is always your choice.

• Testing the drug Lutathera in young people whose high-grade brain or spine tumor has come back or grown

  Recruiting Phase 1/Phase 2 Colorado, Ohio, Pennsylvania

  This study is testing whether a drug called Lutathera is safe, and whether it helps young people whose brain or spine tumor has come back or is growing.

• Testing lerapolturev for adults whose glioblastoma has come back

  Recruiting Phase 2 North Carolina

  This study is testing a treatment called lerapolturev in adults whose glioblastoma has returned.

• Testing the drug tarlatamab with radiation in tumors that make DLL3

  Recruiting Phase 1/Phase 2 Arizona, Washington

  This trial is checking whether a drug called tarlatamab is safe to give along with radiation.

• Testing the drug ERAS-801 in people with grade IV glioblastoma or gliosarcoma that has an EGFR change

  Recruiting Phase 1 California, New York

  This trial is testing a drug called ERAS-801 in people whose grade IV brain tumor has a change in a protein called EGFR.

• Testing Whether Gene Testing of Tumor Tissue or Blood Helps Guide Treatment Choices

  Recruiting

  This trial looks at whether detailed gene testing of a tumor sample or a blood sample helps doctors pick the next treatment.

• Testing new drugs for tumors caused by NF2-related schwannomatosis

  Not yet recruiting Phase 2 Beijing Municipality, Jilin, Shanghai Municipality

  This study tests whether new drugs can help people with NF2-related schwannomatosis, a condition that causes tumors in the nerves and brain.

• A dendritic cell shot that targets survivin, tested in people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma after surgery

  Not yet recruiting Phase 2

  This study is testing a cell injection given after brain surgery for a newly diagnosed glioblastoma.

• Testing MRI Scans After Radiation to Catch Brain Spread Early

  Recruiting Phase 2 North Carolina

  This trial is testing whether regular brain MRI scans after radiation can find cancer that has spread to the brain before it causes symptoms.

• A study of how radiation changes brain networks in children with brain tumors

  Recruiting Missouri

  This study uses brain scans to look at how radiation treatment changes the way a child's brain works.

• Testing an Ultrasound Device With a Study Drug for Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma

  Recruiting Phase 2 Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, and more

  This trial is testing whether a study drug plus a non-invasive ultrasound device can help people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma after their usual treatment.

• A scan test to tell tumor growth from radiation damage in people with brain metastases

  Not yet recruiting

  This trial is testing whether a special brain scan can tell growing tumor apart from damage left by radiation.

• Proton radiation before surgery for high-grade brain gliomas

  Recruiting Phase 1 Kaluga Oblast

  This study is testing whether it is safe to give proton radiation to a brain tumor before surgery.

• Testing digital thinking and memory tests for people with CNS lymphoma or low-grade glioma

  Not yet recruiting Not applicable

  This study checks whether thinking and memory tests you take on your own can work as well as the standard tests given by a specialist.

• Testing a new drug called NRG-103 in people whose high-grade glioma has come back or is growing

  Recruiting Phase 1

  This trial is testing a new drug, NRG-103, in people whose high-grade glioma has returned or is getting worse.

• Al Prediction of Sarcopenia Risk in Neurocritical ICU Patients

  Recruiting

• Testing desmopressin during surgery for hard-to-treat tumors near the pituitary gland

  Enrolling by invitation Phase 4

  This trial is testing whether a drug given during surgery can keep salt levels in the blood from climbing too high.

• Testing safusidenib for Grade 2 glioma with an IDH1 gene change

  Not yet recruiting Phase 3

  This study is testing a drug called safusidenib in people with a Grade 2 brain tumor that has a change in the IDH1 gene.

• Tiny radioactive beads for glioma that has come back

  Not yet recruiting Early phase 1 Victoria

  This study is testing whether tiny radioactive beads, placed in the blood vessels that feed a brain tumor, can treat it safely.

• Testing an imaging agent to help doctors spot glioma in people with brain tumors

  Recruiting Phase 1 Texas

  This study is testing whether a special scan can give doctors a clearer look at a brain tumor.

• Testing new radiation doses with temozolomide chemotherapy for IDH wildtype glioma

  Recruiting Phase 2 Texas

  This study tests a different way of giving radiation, along with a chemotherapy pill, for a type of brain tumor called IDH wildtype glioma.
