Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT07024433Recruiting
No-breathing-tube surgery for early lung cancer
This study tests a special 'tubeless' anesthesia technique — avoiding breathing tubes during surgery — for people with early-stage lung cancer. The goal is to see if it reduces lung problems after the operation.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–70 - NCT07017829RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for STK11-mutant lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug (GT103) combined with the approved immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab for people with advanced lung cancer that has a specific genetic change (STK11). The goal is to see if adding GT103 helps control the cancer better than pembrolizumab alone.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07008742Recruiting
Blood and tissue collection study for certain lung cancers
This study collects blood and tissue samples from people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) either before or after treatment. It aims to help researchers learn more about how tumors respond, especially in cancers with specific genetic changes or after certain pre-surgery therapies.
London, United KingdomAges 18 years+ - NCT06546007Recruiting
Blood and tissue markers to detect lung cancer early
This study is testing whether certain markers in your blood or tissue can help find lung cancer early. It is for people who have lung cancer that can be removed by surgery and haven't had treatment yet.
RomaAges 35–85 - NCT06926075RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Early trial of KESONOTIDE™ for solid tumors
This trial tests a new tablet called KESONOTIDE™ for people with solid tumors that have spread. The goal is to see if it can help when other treatments have stopped working or are not an option.
Kogarah, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT06917573RecruitingPhase 2
Cemiplimab for advanced lung cancer with high PD-L1
This trial tests a drug called cemiplimab (an immunotherapy) for people with advanced lung cancer that has high PD-L1 levels. It uses a simple blood test to track how well the treatment is working.
Alicante, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT06910956Recruiting
Finding high-risk patients for lung cancer screening using chest X-rays
This trial uses artificial intelligence to analyze chest X-rays and identify people who may be at high risk for lung cancer and could benefit from a CT screening scan. It's designed for current or former smokers aged 50 to 77 who have had a recent chest X-ray and are not already being checked for lung cancer.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 50–77 - NCT06572540Recruiting
Cryoablation for early-stage lung cancer
This trial compares two ways to freeze and destroy small lung tumors: through the chest wall or through the airways. It’s for people with early-stage lung cancer who are not able or willing to have surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06717295Recruiting
Blood test to find cancer early and track treatment
This study uses a blood test that looks at your platelets and immune cells to find common cancers early, and for certain cancers, to monitor how well treatment is working.
RosarioAges 40–75 - NCT06699979Recruiting
Early lung cancer study with multiple tumors or cysts
This study looks at the genes and molecules of early-stage lung cancer in two groups: people with more than one lung tumor at the same time, and people whose lung cancer is tied to air-filled spaces (cysts) seen on a CT scan. The goal is to better understand these types of lung cancer.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT06646471RecruitingPhase 4
Study of cancer drugs for older adults with lung cancer
This trial tests approved cancer drugs in people aged 70 and older with non-small-cell lung cancer who haven't had systemic treatment before. The goal is to see how well these drugs work in this older population.
Aix-en-ProvenceAges 70 years+ - NCT06638554Recruiting
Using video visits to help people get screened for lung cancer
This trial tests whether telehealth (video visits) can help more people get screened for lung cancer. It may be a good fit if you are between 50 and 80, have a history of smoking, and have not had a lung cancer screening in the last two years.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 50–80 - NCT06582771RecruitingPhase 2
Testing sotorasib for untreated lung cancer with KRAS G12C mutation
This trial tests an oral targeted drug called sotorasib for people with a specific type of advanced lung cancer (KRAS G12C mutation) who have not had any prior treatment for their advanced disease. It aims to see if this drug can shrink tumors and help patients without using standard chemotherapy or immunotherapy first.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06483698Recruiting
Tracking recovery after early lung cancer surgery
This study follows people with stage I lung cancer to see how they do after surgery. It aims to learn what affects recovery and long-term outcomes.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for early lung cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 202 recruiting early lung cancer 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 early lung cancer 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 early lung cancer 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.
