Metastatic carcinoma in the bone

This study tests a combination of three drugs—radium-223, M3814, and avelumab—in men with advanced prostate cancer that no longer responds to hormone therapy and has spread to the bone. The goal is to see if the combination can slow cancer growth better than radium-223 alone. The…

This study tests whether adding a radioactive drug (radium-223) to standard chemotherapy (paclitaxel) helps people with advanced breast cancer that has spread to the bones. The radioactive drug targets bone tumors directly, while chemo works throughout the body. About 70 particip…

This study tests whether adding the targeted therapy cabozantinib to standard immunotherapy (nivolumab and ipilimumab) helps people with advanced kidney cancer live longer. About 1,175 adults with kidney cancer that has spread will receive either the usual treatment or the usual …

This early-phase trial tests a radioactive drug called tin-117m-DTPA in 24 people with prostate, breast, or lung cancer that has spread to the bones. The drug is designed to deliver low-level radiation directly to bone tumors while being gentler on the bone marrow. Researchers wi…

This early-phase trial tests a drug called RYZ101 in people with a specific type of advanced breast cancer (ER+, HER2-) that has not responded to standard treatments. The drug delivers radiation directly to cancer cells that have a certain marker (SSTR). The goal is to see if it …

This phase 3 trial is testing whether adding radiation therapy to standard care can prevent bone complications like fractures or spinal cord compression in cancer patients with high-risk bone metastases that aren't causing symptoms yet. About 280 patients with multiple metastatic…

This study tests whether adding a radioactive drug (radium-223) to standard treatment (cabozantinib) helps people with advanced kidney cancer that has spread to the bones. About 134 participants will receive either the combination or cabozantinib alone. The goal is to see if the …

This study tests whether adding a targeted drug called ganitumab to standard chemotherapy helps people with newly diagnosed Ewing sarcoma that has spread. The trial includes 312 participants and aims to see if the combination improves survival without the cancer growing back. The…

This early-phase trial tests whether adding high-dose vitamin C (ascorbate) to the chemotherapy drug gemcitabine can help adults with advanced soft tissue or bone sarcoma that cannot be surgically removed or has spread. About 30 participants will receive the combination intraveno…

This study looks at two types of hip implants used in total hip replacement for people with metastatic bone disease (cancer that has spread to the hip bone). The goal is to see if a newer implant design (dual mobility) is as good as a standard one (constrained liner) at preventin…

This study tests a new drug called 9-ING-41, given alone or with chemotherapy, in adults with cancers that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and can help control the disease. About 350 people with various advanced cancers, including…

This phase II trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug durvalumab to precise radiation (SBRT) can better control prostate cancer that has returned and spread to a few spots (oligometastases). About 96 men with hormone-sensitive prostate cancer will be randomly assigned t…

This phase II trial tests whether using PSMA PET scans to select patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer that has spread to bones can improve the effectiveness of radium-223 therapy. Radium-223 is a radioactive drug that targets bone tumors. The study involves only 2 p…

This phase 3 trial tests whether giving denosumab every 12 weeks instead of every 4 weeks can still prevent bone complications (like fractures or spinal cord compression) in people with metastatic breast or prostate cancer. About 1,380 participants with bone metastases will be ra…

This study looks at whether adding a high-precision type of radiation called SBRT to usual cancer treatments (like hormone therapy or chemo) can delay cancer growth in people with breast, lung, or prostate cancer that has spread to 1 to 5 bones. About 168 adults aged 18-75 with g…

This study compares two common blood thinners—aspirin and enoxaparin (Lovenox)—to see which works better at preventing dangerous blood clots after surgery for bone cancer or cancer that has spread to the bone. About 2,868 adults having pelvic or leg surgery for these conditions w…

This phase 2 trial tests a high-precision radiation therapy called SBRT for people whose cancer has spread to the spine or other bones. The goal is to see if SBRT can control tumor growth at the treated spots for at least 6 months. About 150 adults with solid tumors (not blood ca…

This study tested whether a special PET scan using a radioactive tracer can predict how well patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer respond to the drug T-DM1. Ten women with cancer that had spread to other parts of the body received the scan before treatment. The goal…

This study looks at whether a special type of PET/CT scan (called FDG PET/CT) can help doctors see how well hormone therapy is working in breast cancer that has spread to the bones. About 75 adults with estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer and bone metastases will get the sca…

This early study tests a new type of radiation called biology-guided radiation therapy (BgRT) for people with cancer that has spread to the bones and causes pain. BgRT uses live PET scan signals to precisely aim radiation at active tumors during treatment. The goal is to see if a…

This study tests whether a structured, supervised exercise program is safe and feasible for people with painful non-spine bone metastases who have just had palliative radiotherapy. Twenty participants will follow an 8-week exercise plan plus a short maintenance period. Researcher…

This study tests whether MR-guided focused ultrasound (MR-HIFU), alone or with standard radiotherapy, can better relieve pain from bone metastases than radiotherapy alone. About 216 adults with painful bone lesions will be randomly assigned to one of three groups. The goal is to …

This phase 2 trial is testing whether a special type of PET/CT scan (FDG-PET/CT) can better measure how breast cancer that has spread to the bones responds to treatment. The study involves 138 participants with hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer that is mostly in …

This study collects medical information from patients whose cancer has spread to the bone. The goal is to learn more about how cancer affects bones and how to prevent complications like fractures and pain. No extra tests or visits are needed—just data from regular care. The study…

This study follows 180 cancer patients whose cancer has spread to the thigh bone (femur) and who are at high risk of breaking that bone. Researchers compare outcomes between those treated with surgery alone, surgery plus radiation, or radiation alone. The goal is to see which app…

This study involves 230 adults with cancer that has spread to their bones who need surgery. Researchers want to improve how doctors estimate survival by combining the patient's own health assessment with the doctor's evaluation. The goal is to create a more accurate prediction to…
