Radiation Therapy
Whole Brain Radiotherapy + Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Brain Metastasis
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 3
Chicago, Illinois
This trial is testing whether adding whole brain radiation therapy with hippocampal avoidance (to protect memory) and memantine (to protect thinking) to standard stereotactic radiosurgery (a high dose of radiation only to the small areas of cancer in the brain) is more effective than stereotactic radiosurgery alone in treating patients with cancer that has spread to the brain and come back in other areas of the brain after earlier stereotactic radiosurgery.
Trials With No Placebo
Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor
Lenvatinib + Pembrolizumab for Breast Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 1
Chicago, Illinois
This trial involves patients with untreated triple negative breast cancer who will take a pill called Lenvatinib and receive an IV drug called Pembrolizumab. Lenvatinib helps stop the tumor from growing by cutting off its blood supply, and Pembrolizumab helps the immune system attack the cancer.
Monoclonal Antibodies
SGN-B6A for Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 1
Chicago, Illinois
This trial is testing a new drug called sigvotatug vedotin alone and with other treatments to see if it is safe and effective for people with solid tumors. It will also check for any side effects. The study includes different parts to determine the best dose and to see how well the drug works alone and in combination with other treatments.
Behavioral Intervention
Genetic Counseling Support for Breast Cancer
Recruiting1 award7 criteria
Chicago, Illinois
This trial will test the effectiveness of a culturally targeted video on promoting genetic counseling attendance among African American women determined to be at high risk for breast cancer.
FDG-PET/CT Assessment for Breast Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2
Chicago, Illinois
This trial studies how well certain scans work in assessing the response of patients with breast cancer that has spread to the bones. The scans use a special substance to highlight active cancer areas on detailed body images, helping doctors see if the treatment is working. These scans have been used successfully for various stages and evaluations of breast cancer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the 'trial drug' — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
Is there any support for travel costs?
Many of the teams running clinical trials will cover the cost of transportation to-and-from their care center.
Will I know what medication I am taking?
This depends on the specific study. If you're worried about receiving a placebo, you can actively filter out these trials using our search.
How long do clinical trials last?
Some trials will only require a single visit, while others will continue until your disease returns. It's fairly common for a trial to last somewhere between 1 and 6 months.
Do you verify all the trials on your website?
All of the trials listed on Power have been formally registered with the US Food and Drug Administration. Beyond this, some trials on Power have been formally 'verified' if the team behind the trial has completed an additional level of verification with our team.
How quickly will I hear back from a clinical trial?
Sadly, this response time can take anywhere from 6 hours to 2 weeks. We're working hard to speed up how quickly you hear back — in general, verified trials respond to patients within a few days.
