Study uses data to tailor lung cancer care with immunotherapy
This study collects and analyzes medical information (and sometimes tissue samples) to help personalize treatment plans for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer using immunotherapy. It may help researchers find which people benefit most and how treatment can be better matched to each patient.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05558904RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
PET/CT scan to help find early lung cancer
This trial tests a special PET/CT scan to spot early lung cancer by finding specific body processes linked to cancer. It compares scan results in people with lung nodules that are either cancer (lung adenocarcinoma) or likely benign.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05572944Recruiting
Using family risk to predict lung cancer in never-smokers
This study builds and tests risk prediction tools for lung cancer in people who have never smoked, using information from family history. If it works, it may help doctors identify who might need closer screening earlier.
Taichung, TaiwanAges 20–80 - NCT05611034RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a lung treatment for colorectal cancer spread to lungs
This Phase 1 trial tests a targeted treatment delivered to the lungs for colorectal cancer that has spread to the lungs. It aims to see if the approach is safe and can reach lung tumors, especially when there are multiple lung lesions.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–70 - NCT05624996RecruitingPhase 3
Targeted high-dose radiation added to standard lung cancer treatment
This trial tests whether adding high-dose, targeted radiation to the usual treatment helps people with locally advanced, non-operable lung cancer live longer or better control the cancer. It may help shrink tumors in the chest and improve outcomes when surgery can’t be done.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05657873RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted radiation for metastatic lung cancer with liver spread
This trial studies whether adding targeted radiation to the liver (small-area, high-precision radiation) can help people with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Participants also start standard “anti–PD-1/PD-L1” immunotherapy (with chemotherapy in some cases).
Miami, FloridaAges 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+ - NCT05699213Recruiting
MRI and blood tests for lung nodules found on screening
This study looks at whether MRI scans and blood-related biomarkers can help better understand lung nodules found during routine lung cancer screening. It may help doctors decide which nodules need closer follow-up versus less intensive monitoring.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 50 years+ - NCT05784922Recruiting
Lung cancer screening support for eligible smokers
This study aims to improve and promote lung cancer screening for people at higher risk who may face barriers. You may be asked to share your experiences through surveys or focus-group style activities to help make screening more equitable.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 50–80 - NCT05854563Recruiting
Study using collected cough samples to learn about lung disease
This trial looks at “cough capture” samples to better understand what is happening in the lungs. You might be eligible if you’re having a bronchoscopy for medical reasons and don’t already have lung cancer.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 21 years+ - NCT05886439RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug plus PD-1 or PD-L1 for lung cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a new treatment called LK101 combined with a PD-1 or PD-L1 antibody for advanced lung cancer. It may help shrink tumors and improve control of the disease, especially after prior anti–PD-1/PD-L1 treatment has stopped working.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05903092RecruitingPhase 2
Monalizumab plus durvalumab for small cell lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding monalizumab to durvalumab (two immune-targeting medicines) can improve outcomes in people with small cell lung cancer. You may be able to join if you have certain stage of small cell lung cancer and have not had the specific prior treatments the study allows.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT05945745Recruiting
Molecular testing and treatment options for small cell lung cancer
This trial is for adults with small cell lung cancer where your diagnosis is confirmed by a tissue test. The study looks at molecular (tumor-level) features to help guide treatment choices that may fit you better.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT05983432RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BL-B01D1 for advanced lung and other solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental drug called BL-B01D1 for people with several types of advanced solid tumors, especially non-small cell lung cancer and breast cancer. It's designed for those whose cancer has continued to grow after standard treatments.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06076005Recruiting
Advanced Lung Cancer at First Diagnosis Study
This study collects information about people with advanced lung cancer at the time they are first diagnosed. It aims to understand the disease better and may help with future treatments.
RomaAges 18 years+ - NCT06080061RecruitingPhase 1

- How do I know if I qualify for a lung cancer (diagnosis) 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 lung cancer (diagnosis) 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.
