This trial studies whether adding chemotherapy after surgery helps people with early-stage lung adenocarcinoma that has a micropapillary pattern. It’s testing whether chemotherapy given after complete tumor removal can improve outcomes compared with surgery alone.
ShanghaiAges 19–70 - NCT05675410RecruitingPhase 3
Testing two-drug treatment versus standard for Hodgkin lymphoma
This Phase 3 study compares today’s standard treatment for classic Hodgkin lymphoma with a new combination using brentuximab vedotin and nivolumab. The goal is to see which approach works better and is safe for newly diagnosed patients with early-stage disease.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 5–60 - NCT07815223RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy and targeted drug after chemoradiation for limited-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests whether adding two medications—tislelizumab (an immunotherapy that helps your immune system fight cancer) and anlotinib (a targeted drug that blocks blood supply to tumors)—after standard chemoradiation can help keep limited-stage small cell lung cancer from coming back. It may offer a new option to improve outcomes for patients who have already responded to initial treatment.
Yantai, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT07624318Recruiting
TROP2 Lung Cancer Tissue Study
This research study analyzes lung cancer tissue samples to understand a protein called TROP2 and how it might help guide treatment decisions. You may qualify if you have non-squamous lung cancer and haven't received prior systemic chemotherapy or immunotherapy for advanced disease.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07008716RecruitingPhase 3
Omitting CTV for primary tumor in limited-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests whether treating the main tumor alone, without the nearby lymph nodes, can work as well in limited-stage small cell lung cancer after initial chemotherapy. You may qualify if you have not had disease progression after 2-4 cycles of standard chemo and meet other health criteria.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05754203Recruiting
Radiation plus immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial studies whether a more intensive form of targeted radiation, combined with immunotherapy (immune checkpoint inhibitors), can work better and be safe for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. You may be considered if your tumor is limited in size and you’re able to receive both treatments.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04602377RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab with standard chemo for ovarian small cell cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding pembrolizumab (an immune medicine) to standard chemotherapy can improve outcomes for people with small cell cancer of the ovary that has not been treated before. It may help your immune system recognize and attack the cancer while you receive chemotherapy.
