Top Cities for Sarcoma Clinical Trials
Sarcoma clinical trials are recruiting across 107 cities. Here are the cities with the most active studies:
Sarcoma Trial Phases
53 research organizations are sponsoring sarcoma trials.
About Sarcoma
Sarcomas are rare cancers that arise in bone and soft tissues including muscle, fat, blood vessels, and connective tissue. There are more than 70 subtypes of sarcoma. Treatment usually involves surgery combined with radiation and/or chemotherapy.
Clinical trials are advancing new treatments for sarcoma. Currently, 100 studies are recruiting a combined 32,017 participants across the United States. Research is being conducted by 53 organizations including National Cancer Institute (NCI), Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and 50 others.
2026 Sarcoma Research Landscape
As of July 2026, the sarcoma clinical trial landscape includes 100 actively recruiting studies across 107 cities in the United States. These studies are collectively seeking 32,017 participants, with an average enrollment target of 320 per study.
The research spans multiple phases of development: 49 studies are in PHASE2, 34 studies are in PHASE1, 9 studies are in NA, 7 studies are in PHASE3. The presence of Phase 3 trials indicates that some sarcoma treatments are in late-stage testing and may be approaching regulatory review.
Research is being led by 53 different organizations, including National Cancer Institute (NCI), Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center, Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori, Milano, and 48 others. The large number of sponsors reflects significant research interest and investment in sarcoma treatment advancement.

Pediatric Radiation Therapy Registry
The Johns Hopkins Pediatric Radiation Oncology Program is creating a registry that will capture the full 3D radiation dosimetry delivered to its pediatric patients to manage the quality of care provided, as well as to examine the long-term outcomes and toxicity of each patient. The registry will capture baseline clinical data, disease, toxicity, and quality of life outcomes. The goal is to include...
Novel Biochemical and Molecular Determinants for Soft Tissue Sarcoma
The purpose of this study is to study normal and sarcoma cells. To study these cells we need to have human tissue. You will be having or have already had a procedure to remove tissue. We would like to use some of this tissue. We will use it for laboratory studies on the diagnosis,behavior and treatment of sarcoma. We will perform an extensive analysis of your samples. We will only use extra tissue...
