Recruiting studies
- NCT07874581Recruiting
Study of MRG003 for small cell lung cancer that has returned
This study tests a new drug, MRG003, for people with a type of lung cancer called small cell lung cancer that has spread or come back after earlier treatment. The goal is to see if this drug can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07509034RecruitingPhase 1

Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT07652736Recruiting
Tislelizumab for lung cancer in routine care
This study watches how well Tislelizumab works for people with lung cancer when it is used as part of their normal treatment. It does not give you any new medicine or change your care plan.
CórdobaAges 18 years+ - NCT04829708RecruitingPhase 3
Preventing brain spread in limited-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial compares two ways to manage limited-stage small cell lung cancer that has improved after initial chemotherapy and radiation. Participants will either get preventive brain radiation or have regular brain MRI scans instead, to see which approach is safer and works better.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT05797493Recruiting
Test blood and immune markers in extensive-stage small cell lung cancer
This study looks at immune-related blood/tissue markers to understand disease activity in people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer after standard upfront treatment. If your cancer fits the pattern they’re studying, it may help researchers improve how future treatments are matched to patients.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT04539977RecruitingPhase 2
PD-L1 antibody plus chemotherapy for limited-stage small-cell lung cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding a PD-L1 antibody to chemotherapy helps people with newly diagnosed limited-stage small-cell lung cancer live longer and control the cancer better. It may benefit patients who have not had any prior cancer treatment for SCLC and can meet health and lab requirements.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05623267RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
SugeMalimab after lung radiation and chemotherapy for limited-stage SCLC
This trial tests sugemalimab as “extra treatment” after standard chemoradiation for limited-stage small cell lung cancer. It aims to lower the chance of the cancer coming back by helping the immune system stay active after initial therapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06041776RecruitingPhase 3
Befotertinib after surgery for early-stage lung cancer with EGFR mutation
This trial tests if a targeted therapy pill (befotertinib) can lower the chance of cancer coming back after surgery for non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific EGFR mutation. You may be eligible if your tumor was completely removed and you have stage IB to IIIB disease.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06092086RecruitingPhase 2
Lorlatinib for first-line treatment of ALK-positive lung cancer
This trial tests a targeted pill, lorlatinib, for people with advanced ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have not received previous treatment for advanced disease. It aims to see how well the drug works in this setting.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT04790253Recruiting
Check brain radiation timing or frequent MRI scans for SCLC
This study compares two ways to follow and treat small-cell lung cancer in the brain: preventive brain radiation versus close monitoring with MRI scans and treatment only if needed. It may help people avoid unnecessary brain treatment or choose the safer timing strategy.
GrazAges 18 years+ - NCT06125041RecruitingPhase 2
Adebelizumab with chemo and radiation for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called Adebelizumab (an immunotherapy) combined with chemotherapy and radiation for people with extensive stage small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink tumors and improves survival.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT06160596Recruiting
Understanding long-term cancer survival in hard-to-treat tumors
This study looks at why some people with hard-to-treat cancers live much longer than expected. It collects tumor samples to search for clues that might help future patients.
VillejuifAges 18 years+ - NCT06128837RecruitingPhase 3
Study of a new drug for recurrent small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a drug called LY01610 for people with small cell lung cancer that has returned after initial chemotherapy. It may offer a new treatment option for those whose cancer progressed within 6 months of their last treatment.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06223711RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab with radiation therapy for limited-spread small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of durvalumab (immunotherapy) plus radiation and chemotherapy for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has only a few distant spots. The goal is to see if this approach helps control the cancer better.
Augsburg, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT07843940RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Two study drugs for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests two new immunotherapy drugs (obrixtamig and pumitamig) given together for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and helps shrink or control the cancer.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06464068RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemo for first-line advanced extrapulmonary small cell cancer
This trial tests a new combination of durvalumab (an immunotherapy) plus standard chemotherapy for people with advanced small cell carcinoma that started outside the lung and has not been treated before. The goal is to see if this combo works better than chemo alone.
Reggio EmiliaAges 18 years+ - NCT06110572RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Total body irradiation with immunotherapy for extensive SCLC
This trial adds total body irradiation (a low dose of radiation to the whole body) to standard atezolizumab (immunotherapy) plus chemotherapy for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if the radiation helps the immunotherapy work better.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06467786RecruitingPhase 4
Irinotecan liposomes for advanced small cell lung cancer
This trial is testing a new form of chemotherapy called irinotecan liposomes for people with advanced small cell lung cancer that has worsened after initial treatment. It aims to see if this drug can shrink tumors and improve survival.

Tarlatamab for extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer with poor performance status
This trial tests a new drug called tarlatamab for people with extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer who are too unwell for standard treatments. It aims to see if the drug can help shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT06295926RecruitingPhase 2

Tarlatamab for small cell lung cancer after first chemotherapy
This trial tests a new drug called tarlatamab, given either as an injection under the skin or through an IV, for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has grown or come back after one round of chemotherapy. The goal is to see which way of giving the drug works better and is safer.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 191 recruiting extensive stage lung small cell 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 extensive stage lung small cell 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 extensive stage lung small cell 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.
