Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00898313Recruiting
Study looks for cancer clues in people at high risk for lung cancer
This study enrolls adults who are being checked for possible lung cancer because of concerning symptoms or a high-risk situation. It aims to find molecular (cell/DNA-related) predictors that may help doctors better recognize lung cancer earlier.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT00897117Recruiting
Providing tumor tissue samples during lung cancer surgery
This study collects and analyzes tumor tissue from people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer who are planning surgery. It may help researchers learn more about the cancer by studying samples taken at the time of your operation.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18–120 - NCT00001823Recruiting
Surgery Branch Screening for Cancer Treatment Studies
This is a screening evaluation to see if you might be eligible for cancer treatment research studies at the National Cancer Institute's Surgery Branch. Doctors will review your medical history, imaging, and test results to determine which clinical trials might be right for you.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT00034216Recruiting
Blood Collection Study for Cancer Patients and Healthy Volunteers
This study collects blood samples from people with cancer and healthy volunteers to help researchers understand cancer better. Your blood will be used for laboratory studies that may improve future cancer treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05502913RecruitingPhase 2
Fecal transplant plus cancer immunotherapy for lung cancer
This trial studies whether giving a fecal microbiota transplant (a stool-based sample from a carefully screened donor) alongside immune checkpoint inhibitors can improve outcomes in people with lung cancer. It aims to change the gut bacteria to help the immune system work better against the cancer.
BeershebaAges 18 years+ - NCT07864207RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of IDP-121 for small cell lung cancer that stopped responding to platinum
This trial tests a new drug, IDP-121, alone or with another chemo drug, for people with small cell lung cancer that came back after initial treatment. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors and help people live longer.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06307249RecruitingPhase 1
Precision therapy for solid tumors targeting CDK4/6 and VEGF
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs for advanced solid tumors like colorectal, lung, breast, and genitourinary cancers. The goal is to see if blocking certain proteins and a long RNA molecule can slow tumor growth.
Tripoli, North LebanonAges 18 years+ - NCT06225804RecruitingPhase 1
Study of ABSK112 for advanced non-small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called ABSK112 for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer, especially those whose cancer has a specific change in the EGFR gene (exon 20 insertion). The main goals are to see if it's safe and how the body handles it.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06196294RecruitingPhase 1
Engineered immune cells for cancers with GPC3 or mesothelin
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy made from your own cells (gamma-delta T cells) that are engineered to find and attack cancers that have GPC3 or mesothelin proteins. It may be an option for people with advanced cancer who have not had gene therapy before and are in generally good health.
