Clinical Trials

Every treatment that has ever made a difference in cancer care was once a part of a clinical trial. MUSC Hollings Cancer Center is committed to offering the best treatments available today while searching for even better ones for the future. Ask your doctor if a clinical trial is right for you.

    Tomosynthesis Mammographic Imaging Screening Trial (TMIST)

    This randomized phase III trial studies digital tomosynthesis mammography and digital mammography in screening patients for breast cancer. Screening for breast cancer with tomosynthesis mammography may be superior to digital mammography for breast cancer screening and may help reduce the need for additional imaging or treatment.

    LUNGMAP: A Master Protocol To Evaluate Biomarker Driven Therapies And Immunotherapies In Previously Treated Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (Lung Map Screening Study)

    This screening and multi-sub-study randomized phase II/III trial will establish a method for genomic screening of similar large cancer populations followed by assigning and accruing simultaneously to a multi-sub-study hybrid Master Protocol (Lung-MAP). The type of cancer trait (biomarker) will determine to which sub-study, within this protocol, a participant will be assigned to compare new targeted cancer therapy, designed to block the growth and spread of cancer, or combinations to standard of care therapy with the ultimate goal of being able to approve new targeted therapies in this setting. In addition, the protocol includes non-match sub-studies which will include all screened patients not eligible for any of the biomarker-driven sub-studies.

    Neoadjuvant Screening Trial: LCMC4 Evaluation of Actionable Drivers in Early Stage Lung Cancer

    The primary objective of this study is to determine the proportion of patients with stage IA2-III lung cancers who possess actionable oncogenic drivers. The screening approach will be considered feasible if, utilizing tumor or plasma assays, 35% of non-squamous non-small cell lung cancers are identified as having a actionable genomic alteration including ALK rearrangements, BRAFV600E mutations, EGFR sensitizing mutations, HER2 mutation, HER2 amplification, MET amplification, MET exon 14 mutation, RET rearrangements, NTRK rearrangement, KRAS G12C, or ROS1 rearrangements
