Johns Hopkins University is one of the premier academic medical research institutions in the United States and globally, consistently ranked among the top NIH-funded institutions. The Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and the Bloomberg School of Public Health together support one of the most diverse clinical trial portfolios in US academic medicine, spanning infectious disease, oncology, cardiology, neurology, psychiatry, ophthalmology, and population health. Johns Hopkins Hospital — one of the nation's oldest and most respected teaching hospitals — serves as the primary trial site for Hopkins-initiated studies.

Hopkins has a long tradition of trial leadership in HIV/AIDS (through the Bloomberg School's International Health division and the Baltimore cohort studies), cancer (through the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center, an NCI-designated comprehensive cancer center), and cardiovascular disease (through the Ciccarone Center for the Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease). Hopkins investigators have led landmark studies including the Physicians' Health Study, the SPRINT blood pressure trial, and pivotal work on HPV vaccine efficacy in partnership with the NCI.

Johns Hopkins also serves as a primary site for global health trials — particularly in low- and middle-income countries — in tuberculosis, malaria, neonatal health, and maternal nutrition. The Johns Hopkins Center for Clinical Trials is a federally designated Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) hub, providing infrastructure, biostatistics support, and regulatory expertise for more than 400 concurrent investigator-initiated and sponsor-initiated trials across the institution.

Frequently Asked Questions — Johns Hopkins University

What cancer clinical trials does Johns Hopkins University sponsor or lead?
The Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins is NCI-designated and runs active trials in colorectal cancer (including investigational immunotherapy for mismatch repair-deficient tumors — a breakthrough area pioneered at Hopkins), pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer, brain tumors, leukemia and lymphoma, and lung cancer. Hopkins investigators have led multiple NCI cooperative group trials and have an internationally recognized program in cancer immunoprevention — developing vaccine strategies to prevent cancer in high-risk populations. The institution also conducts first-in-human Phase 1 trials through its Drug Development Core.
Does Johns Hopkins conduct clinical trials for neurological or psychiatric conditions?
Yes. The Johns Hopkins Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences has an active research program that includes trials on treatment-resistant depression (including psilocybin-assisted therapy — one of the first institutional programs in the US to receive DEA approval for this research), PTSD, addiction medicine (including novel treatments for opioid use disorder), and bipolar disorder. The Department of Neurology runs trials in multiple sclerosis (through the Johns Hopkins MS Center), ALS, Parkinson's disease, and stroke. The Wilmer Eye Institute at Hopkins — one of the top-ranked ophthalmology programs in the world — sponsors trials in macular degeneration, glaucoma, and inherited retinal diseases.
How do patients access Johns Hopkins clinical trials from outside Maryland?
Many Johns Hopkins trials are part of multicenter networks that include enrollment sites at hospitals and clinics nationwide — particularly NCI cooperative group trials conducted through ECOG-ACRIN, the Alliance, or NCI NCTN. For trials that are Hopkins-only, patients often travel to the Johns Hopkins Hospital campus in Baltimore, Maryland. The Hopkins Clinical Research Trials Office (410-502-9100) and the JH clinical trials search engine (trials.hopkinsmedicine.org) can help patients identify open trials and assess eligibility before visiting. Hopkins also offers telehealth pre-screening appointments for some trials.
