Recruiting studies in California
- NCT06518057RecruitingPhase 2
Sparing memory during brain radiation for leptomeningeal metastases
This trial tests a special type of radiation that avoids the memory center of the brain (the hippocampus) while treating cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain and spinal cord. It may help reduce side effects on thinking and memory for people with breast or lung cancer.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04402788RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Radiation added to immune therapy for extensive small cell lung cancer
This trial tests whether adding radiation therapy to standard immune therapy (atezolizumab) after initial chemo can help people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer live longer and control the cancer better. You must have a good response (partial response) or stable disease after initial treatment, plus several lab/imaging checks to confirm safety.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07226544RecruitingPhase 2
Ivonescimab before surgery for high-risk kidney cancer
This trial tests giving the drug ivonescimab before surgery for patients with high-risk clear cell kidney cancer. The goal is to see if it can help shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04181060RecruitingPhase 3
Osimertinib alone or with bevacizumab for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether starting osimertinib with or without bevacizumab helps people with advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer live longer and control the cancer better. Your EGFR mutation test result and past treatments are key to whether you can join.
Antioch, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06131840RecruitingPhase 1
Study of SGN-CEACAM5C for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called SGN-CEACAM5C in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The drug targets a protein on cancer cells to try to stop them from growing.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03808337RecruitingPhase 2
SBRT radiation plus standard treatment for spread cancer
This trial looks at adding a focused radiation treatment called SBRT to standard care for cancers that have spread to a limited number of spots. It aims to control those spread-out tumors while still using the usual cancer treatment plan.
San Carlos, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05257551Recruiting
Small cell lung cancer data study using tumor and blood samples
This observational study collects information and lab samples from people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It may help researchers understand how patients respond and improve future care, but it usually does not add new treatment for you.
Los Alamitos, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06287775RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug combo for small cell lung cancer
This trial tests adding a new drug, iadademstat, to standard immunotherapy drugs (atezolizumab or durvalumab) for people with small cell lung cancer that responded to initial treatment. The goal is to see if this combination works better at preventing cancer from returning.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06769126RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized treatment study for extensive stage small cell lung cancer
This study uses biomarker tests on your tumor to find a personalized treatment after initial chemotherapy. You will be assigned to one of four treatment groups based on your biomarker results.
Rancho Mirage, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06910761RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation for cancer spread to brain lining
This trial tests whether a precise type of radiation to the brain and spine (craniospinal irradiation) can help control cancer that has spread to the lining of the brain and spinal cord (leptomeningeal disease) in people with breast cancer or non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to improve symptoms and slow disease progression.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06179069RecruitingPhase 1
Study of ZL-1310 for small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called ZL-1310, alone or with other treatments, for people with small cell lung cancer that has spread (extensive-stage). It aims to see if ZL-1310 can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05691491RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Temozolomide plus M1774 for advanced metastatic cancers
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a combination of temozolomide and M1774 to see how safe it is and whether it can help shrink advanced cancers that have spread. It focuses on certain tumor types and specific biomarker results, and it may be an option if standard treatments have been tried or aren’t possible.

What taking part in a extensive stage lung small cell carcinoma study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there extensive stage lung small cell carcinoma clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 12 recruiting extensive stage lung small cell carcinoma studies with a site in California, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a extensive stage lung small cell carcinoma study in California?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in California to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in California, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a extensive stage lung small cell carcinoma trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
