- NCT06127303RecruitingPhase 2
Toripalimab plus cryoablation for lung cancer with limited progression
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (toripalimab) and a freezing treatment (cryoablation) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has started to grow again in only a few spots after initial treatment. It aims to see if this approach can help control the cancer without switching to a completely new therapy.

Early re-biopsy to find why tumors survive targeted drugs
This study takes a small tumor sample early after starting targeted treatment (or uses blood if a biopsy isn’t possible) to look for clues—called biomarkers—about why some tumor cells survive. The results may help improve how future patients’ treatments are chosen for certain lung cancer gene mutations.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cancer (advanced stage)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,032 recruiting cancer (advanced stage) 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 cancer (advanced stage) 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 cancer (advanced stage) 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.
