Recruiting studies
- NCT06087068RecruitingPhase 2
Thyroid hormone therapy after lobectomy for low-risk thyroid cancer
This trial is testing whether thyroid hormone replacement after surgery is safe for people with low-risk papillary thyroid cancer. It may help maintain normal hormone levels after part of the thyroid is removed.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 1.5 years–70 years - NCT06483698Recruiting
Tracking recovery after early lung cancer surgery
This study follows people with stage I lung cancer to see how they do after surgery. It aims to learn what affects recovery and long-term outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT07018375Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Oliceridine for pain after lung surgery
This trial tests a pain medicine called oliceridine, given through a pump you control after lung surgery, to see if it helps prevent long-term pain. It is for people having a VATS procedure to remove part of their lung and who are generally healthy.
TianjinAges 18–75 - NCT06638645Recruiting
Hospital stay after keyhole lung surgery
This study looks at how long people stay in the hospital after keyhole surgery to remove a part of the lung. It aims to find out what affects recovery time.
BrugesAges 18 years+ - NCT06687408Recruiting
Minimally invasive sleeve lobectomy for lung cancer
This study looks at a type of lung cancer surgery called sleeve lobectomy done with small incisions (minimally invasive). It aims to see if this approach is safe and effective for people with non-small cell lung cancer that requires removing a part of the lung and reconnecting the airway.
HangzhouAges 18 years+ - NCT06958848Recruiting
Comparing two chest tube sizes after minimally invasive lung cancer surgery
This trial compares two sizes of chest tubes (16F and 24F) placed after minimally invasive lung cancer surgery. The goal is to see which size leads to better recovery and less pain, while still draining fluid and air effectively.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT07135856Recruiting
Lung-saving surgery after pre-surgery therapy for NSCLC
This trial studies how well sleeve lobectomy (a type of lung-saving surgery) works for people with non-small cell lung cancer who have already received therapy like chemotherapy or immunotherapy before surgery. It aims to see if this approach is safe and effective.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07166003Recruiting
Immunotherapy before surgery for lung cancer
This trial tests whether giving immunotherapy before surgery helps people with lung cancer. It is for patients who have already started this treatment and are otherwise healthy.
BeijingAges 18–79 - NCT07213375RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
High-dose steroid to reduce pain after lung surgery
This trial tests if a high dose of dexamethasone (a steroid) can lower pain after keyhole lung surgery. If you are having planned keyhole lung surgery for a lobe or segment, you may be eligible.
Copenhagen, CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT07335250Recruiting
Nerve block for pain after lung surgery
This study tests a nerve block (an injection near the spine) to see if it reduces pain after lung surgery (thoracotomy with lobectomy). If you are having planned lung surgery, this could help manage your pain with fewer side effects.
KonyaAges 18–85 - NCT07477158Recruiting
Comparing two lung cancer surgeries for recovery and quality of life
This study compares two types of lung cancer surgery—removing just the tumor section (segmentectomy) or the whole lobe (lobectomy)—done through small cuts (minimally invasive). The goal is to see which approach leads to better daily living and recovery for early-stage lung cancer patients.
Madrid, MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT07479277Recruiting
Progel to reduce air leaks after lung surgery
This trial tests whether a special gel (Progel Platinum) can reduce air leaks that sometimes happen after lung cancer surgery. It is for people having minimally invasive surgery to remove the upper or lower lobe of the lung.
Candiolo, TorinoAges 18–99

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lobectomy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 36 recruiting lobectomy 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 lobectomy 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 lobectomy 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.
