Recruiting studies
- NCT05713006RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Alectinib drug handling study for ALK-positive advanced lung cancer
This early-phase trial studies how alectinib (an ALK-blocking medicine) moves through the body and how it’s tolerated in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has an ALK rearrangement. You may be considered if you have ALK-positive, recurrent or advanced disease and have already had specific prior treatments.
Mexico City, Mexico CityAges 18 years+ - NCT05703971RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Maintenance treatment with a gene therapy plus atezolizumab
This Phase 1/2 trial tests whether a gene therapy called Reqorsa given with atezolizumab can help people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) stay controlled after their first chemo. It may help by boosting the immune system to keep the cancer from growing again.
Lone Tree, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT05696782RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab after chemoradiation for stage III lung cancer
This trial tests giving durvalumab (an immune therapy) soon after standard chemotherapy and radiation for stage II–III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if this “quick start” approach improves outcomes compared with waiting longer to begin durvalumab.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05681780RecruitingPhase 1
CD40L-treated immune cells for advanced lung cancer with certain gene changes
This Phase 1 study tests a lab-made immune cell treatment (TIL) boosted with CD40L, plus nivolumab, for stage IV or returning non-small cell lung cancer with specific gene changes (EGFR, ALK, ROS1, or HER2). It aims to help your immune system attack the cancer after it has grown despite standard treatments.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05642572RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug combinations for EGFR- and MET-changed lung cancer

Daphne, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05669846RecruitingPhase 2
FMT plus pembrolizumab for advanced lung cancer after prior treatment
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding fecal microbiome transplant (FMT) to pembrolizumab can help people with advanced, PD-L1–positive non-small cell lung cancer that has returned or progressed after anti–PD-1/PD-L1 therapy. You may be asked to give new tumor tissue and undergo gut procedures, because the study aims to change gut bacteria to boost the immune response.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05613413RecruitingPhase 2
Maintenance cabozantinib plus pembrolizumab after lung cancer control
This trial tests whether continuing treatment with cabozantinib plus pembrolizumab after your metastatic squamous lung cancer responds (or is stable) can help people live longer and stay in control. It may be an option if your cancer has already shown it can respond to initial (first-line) treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05588388RecruitingPhase 2
Testing bevacizumab with chemo and immunotherapy for small cell lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding bevacizumab to chemo plus immunotherapy (including atezolizumab) can improve outcomes in extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) that has spread to the liver. It may help by blocking tumor blood vessel growth while boosting anti-cancer immune and treatment effects.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT05570825RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug SX-682 with pembrolizumab for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests SX-682 plus pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) to treat metastatic or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It aims to see how well the combination works and whether it can shrink or control the cancer in people whose tumors have enough PD-L1.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT04696575RecruitingPhase 2
Lamivudine added to chemoimmunotherapy for extensive-stage lung cancer
This trial tests whether adding lamivudine to standard chemoimmunotherapy can improve outcomes for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It aims to see if this combination controls the cancer better than standard treatment alone.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05467748RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug combo for advanced lung cancer after PD-1 treatment
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a combination of an EZH2 inhibitor (tulmimetostat) with a PD-1 blocker (pembrolizumab) for advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has stopped responding to prior PD-1 treatment. It may help shrink or control cancer and is mainly aimed at people who have limited treatment options left.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05493566RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Low-dose IL-2 plus pembrolizumab for stage IV lung cancer
This early-phase study tests whether low-dose IL-2 combined with pembrolizumab can help treat stage IV non-small cell lung cancer that has not had prior advanced treatment. It may be an option if your tumor has certain immune-marker findings (PD-L1) and you meet safety requirements.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05450965RecruitingPhase 2
Onvansertib for relapsed small cell lung cancer
This trial studies onvansertib, a targeted medicine, in people whose small cell lung cancer has come back or did not respond to prior platinum chemotherapy. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes after standard treatment has already been tried.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05456256RecruitingPhase 2
LP-300 plus chemo for lung cancer in never-smokers
This Phase 2 trial tests LP-300 with carboplatin and pemetrexed to treat advanced lung adenocarcinoma in people who have never smoked. It may help shrink tumors and slow the disease in a specific genetic group of lung cancer.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05445791RecruitingPhase 3
Metformin plus targeted lung cancer drugs for EGFR-mutated cancer
This Phase 3 study tests whether adding metformin to standard targeted medicines (tyrosine kinase inhibitors) helps people with EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer. It’s meant for people who haven’t already had EGFR-targeted treatment and who have healthy enough labs and organs to safely take the study medicines.
Mexico CityAges 18 years+ - NCT05452005RecruitingPhase 1
PET scan with a new tracer for lung cancer brain metastases
This Phase 1 study tests whether a specialized PET scan tracer can “light up” metastatic non-small cell lung cancer in the brain. If you join, you’ll get brain MRI and PET/CT scans and you’ll continue with your planned cancer treatments and follow-up imaging.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05398094RecruitingPhase 2
Sotorasib for KRAS-mutant Stage III lung cancer without chemo-radiation
This Phase 2 study tests sotorasib (also called AMG510) in people with Stage III lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery and that has a specific KRAS mutation (p.G12C). You may be able to join if you cannot safely receive chemo-radiotherapy at the same time, and the study checks whether sotorasib can help shrink or control the cancer.
Alicante, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT04550104RecruitingPhase 1
Durvalumab with radiation for lung cancer patients
This trial tests adding durvalumab (an immune therapy) to a radiation treatment plan for people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who can’t safely have chemotherapy at the same time or surgery first. It aims to improve cancer control after radiation by helping the immune system recognize and fight the tumor.
