Study of IN10018 plus standard chemo for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called IN10018 combined with standard chemotherapy (carboplatin and etoposide) and an immunotherapy (anti-PD-1/L1) for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) who have not yet been treated. The goal is to see if adding IN10018 helps shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
JinanAges 18–75 - NCT05035108RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Bioartificial liver treatment using hiHep cells after liver surgery
This early-stage study tests a lab-made “bioartificial liver” (using hiHep cells) after major liver surgery to help the remaining liver recover. It may help people whose remaining liver volume after resection is less than half and who have acceptable heart, lung, and blood test results for surgery.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 30–80 - NCT06868732RecruitingPhase 1
A new drug combination for advanced non-small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that cannot be removed with surgery or cured with radiation. It aims to see if the combination is safe and effective.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06623656RecruitingPhase 2
Pre-surgery treatment comparison for non-small cell lung cancer
This trial compares two treatment approaches before surgery for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): radiation plus immunotherapy versus chemotherapy plus immunotherapy. The goal is to see which combination works better to shrink the tumor before it is removed.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06484491Recruiting
Higher-dose proton therapy for stage III lung cancer
This trial tests whether giving a higher dose of a special, precise form of radiation (proton therapy) to the main tumor can improve outcomes for people with stage III lung cancer who are already scheduled for chemoradiation and immunotherapy. It may help by targeting the tumor more effectively while protecting nearby organs.
GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT05935384Recruiting
Blood tests to track response to cancer therapy
This study follows how cancer responds to standard (usual) treatment by using blood samples and de-identified health data. It may help researchers understand whether “liquid biopsy” blood testing can reflect how well therapy is working.
Skokie, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05852990RecruitingPhase 3
Gut help to prevent diarrhea from EGFR-targeted lung cancer drugs
This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding glutamine plus L. reuteri can help prevent severe diarrhea caused by EGFR-targeted treatments in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. If it works, it could make treatment easier to tolerate and help you stay on the planned therapy.
Mexico City, Mexico CityAges 18–80 - NCT05793151Recruiting
Guided care to start cancer treatment on time after surgery
This trial tests a navigation program (help from a care coordinator) versus usual care to help people start the recommended “next-step” treatments (like radiation, sometimes with chemo) on time after surgery. It’s for certain stages of squamous cell cancer in the head and neck area where late treatment could matter.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05091372RecruitingPhase 2
Maintenance treatment after transplant for newly diagnosed myeloma
This trial tests whether using belantamab mafodotin plus lenalidomide as long-term maintenance after an autologous stem cell transplant can keep multiple myeloma under control, guided by minimal residual disease (MRD). MRD is a very small amount of disease that may remain after transplant, and the study helps see if treating those patients better improves outcomes.
