ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT07089199RecruitingPhase 2
Treatment before surgery for stage 2–3 lung cancer
This study tests whether giving a combination of three medicines before surgery can help shrink tumors in people with stage 2 or 3 non-small cell lung cancer, potentially making surgery and recovery more effective. The medicines include an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab), a targeted therapy (anlotinib), and a chemotherapy drug (nab-paclitaxel).
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT07087223RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of vebreltinib plus furmonertinib for NSCLC with c-Met amplification
This trial tests a combination of two targeted therapies (vebreltinib and furmonertinib) for people with a specific type of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has a change called c-Met amplification and has stopped responding to earlier EGFR-targeted treatment. It aims to see if adding vebreltinib can help control the cancer.
Neimeng, NeimengAges 18 years+ - NCT07086300Recruiting
Acupuncture with immunotherapy for older lung cancer patients
This trial tests whether adding electroacupuncture (a gentle, needle-based therapy) to a standard immunotherapy drug (PD-1 inhibitor) can help older adults with advanced lung cancer. It may improve treatment response and quality of life.
