Recruiting studies
- NCT05681780RecruitingPhase 1
CD40L-treated immune cells for advanced lung cancer with certain gene changes
This Phase 1 study tests a lab-made immune cell treatment (TIL) boosted with CD40L, plus nivolumab, for stage IV or returning non-small cell lung cancer with specific gene changes (EGFR, ALK, ROS1, or HER2). It aims to help your immune system attack the cancer after it has grown despite standard treatments.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05713006RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Alectinib drug handling study for ALK-positive advanced lung cancer
This early-phase trial studies how alectinib (an ALK-blocking medicine) moves through the body and how it’s tolerated in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has an ALK rearrangement. You may be considered if you have ALK-positive, recurrent or advanced disease and have already had specific prior treatments.
Mexico City, Mexico CityAges 18 years+ - NCT05765877RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug before surgery for ALK or ROS1 lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests WX-0593 given before surgery for certain types of lung cancer that have ALK or ROS1 gene changes. The goal is to shrink or control the cancer ahead of the operation and see how well the treatment works and is tolerated.

Alectinib for ALK-positive cancers in teens and adults
This study tests whether alectinib can treat ALK-positive cancers in adults, teenagers, and children. It focuses on people whose cancer testing shows an ALK change, and who can start oral treatment and have a new tissue sample.
BelfastAges Any age - NCT05987644RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Timing of brain radiation for ALK-positive lung cancer with brain mets
This trial tests whether it is better to delay brain radiation or give it right away in people with ALK-positive lung cancer that has spread to the brain and is causing few or no symptoms. If you are starting alectinib, you may be able to join and help find the best timing for radiation.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05991895Recruiting
Iruplinalkib for ALK-positive lung cancer
This real-world study looks at how effective Iruplinalkib is for people with ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer. It is open to patients who have already taken this drug, and will simply collect data from your regular medical care.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT06225427RecruitingPhase 1
Gilteritinib for advanced ALK-positive lung cancer
This trial tests a drug called gilteritinib for people with a specific genetic type of lung cancer (ALK-positive) that has spread and has been treated before. You may be eligible if you have already tried at least one targeted therapy, and your cancer is still growing.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07696832Recruiting
Ivonescimab as first treatment for advanced lung cancer
This trial studies ivonescimab alone as a first treatment for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that tests positive for PD-L1 and doesn't have certain gene changes. The goal is to see if it works and is safe in everyday medical practice.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06333899RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Lorlatinib for newly diagnosed brain tumors with ROS or ALK fusion
This trial tests if lorlatinib, a targeted pill, can shrink or slow the growth of high-grade brain tumors that have a specific ROS or ALK genetic change. It is for children and young adults who have not yet had treatment for their tumor.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 1–21 - NCT06362369RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Oral 7HP349 with immunotherapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental oral drug (7HP349) combined with two immunotherapy drugs (ipilimumab and nivolumab) for people with advanced solid tumors. It aims to see if the combination is safe and effective in shrinking tumors.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06620835RecruitingPhase 2
Optimizing local treatments for ALK-positive lung cancer on brigatinib
This trial is for people with advanced ALK-positive lung cancer who are already taking the targeted therapy brigatinib and have a few remaining spots of cancer. It tests whether adding local treatments (like surgery, focused radiation, or ablation) to the remaining spots can improve outcomes.
BrestAges 18 years+ - NCT06862869Recruiting
Alectinib after surgery for early ALK-positive lung cancer
This study looks at how well alectinib works when given after surgery to people with early-stage ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to understand real-world outcomes for patients who take this targeted therapy as their first treatment after surgery.
Zhanjiang, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06724237RecruitingPhase 3
High-dose chemo and stem cell transplant for T-cell lymphoma patients in remission
This trial tests whether high-dose chemotherapy followed by a stem cell transplant using your own cells can help people with certain types of peripheral T-cell lymphoma live longer. You would qualify if you have already finished your first round of chemotherapy and are in complete remission.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–75 - NCT07001384RecruitingPhase 1
Alectinib and Duvelisib for ALK-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma
This trial tests two oral targeted drugs—alectinib and duvelisib—for people whose ALK-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma has come back or not responded after at least one prior chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the cancer.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07354061RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Ensartinib plus chemo before surgery for ALK+ lung cancer
This trial tests whether taking the targeted therapy Ensartinib (which blocks ALK) along with standard chemotherapy before surgery can help shrink ALK-positive lung cancer and improve outcomes. It is for people who have not yet had treatment and whose cancer is at a stage that can be removed with surgery.
Xi’an, ShanxiAges 18–75 - NCT02285582Recruiting
Rare blood disorder registry for histiocytic conditions
This study is a registry that collects information about people diagnosed with rare histiocytic disorders. It helps doctors better understand these conditions over time and may improve future care.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT03093116RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Repotrectinib for ALK, ROS1, or NTRK tumor gene changes
This trial studies repotrectinib, a targeted medicine, in people with advanced solid tumors that have specific gene rearrangements (ALK, ROS1, or NTRK). It may help shrink tumors or control cancer growth based on the patient’s tumor genetic result.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT07651891RecruitingPhase 4
Dog allergy vaccine study for Swedish adults

Genetic study of drug-resistant lung cancer
This trial looks at the genetic changes in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has stopped responding to targeted therapy pills. It aims to understand why the cancer became resistant, which may help find better treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for alk?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 68 recruiting alk studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a alk trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a alk trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
