Recruiting studies
- NCT04115254Recruiting
MRI-guided focused radiation for certain tumors
This study tests a type of high-precision radiation guided by MRI pictures to treat certain cancers. It may help doctors deliver radiation more accurately while avoiding nearby healthy tissue, but you must be able to safely complete an MRI scan and meet tumor-size and health requirements.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06038227Recruiting
Robotic vs. VATS surgery for early lung cancer
This study compares two types of minimally invasive surgery—robotic-assisted (da Vinci) and VATS—for people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see which approach might work better and help patients recover faster.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT05777603RecruitingPhase 1
Aerosol antibiotics plus pembrolizumab for advanced lung cancer
This trial studies whether inhaled (aerosol) antibiotics combined with pembrolizumab can help people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has grown despite standard first treatment. It aims to improve cancer control by testing this new combination in Phase 1 safety and early effectiveness.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05467748RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug combo for advanced lung cancer after PD-1 treatment
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a combination of an EZH2 inhibitor (tulmimetostat) with a PD-1 blocker (pembrolizumab) for advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has stopped responding to prior PD-1 treatment. It may help shrink or control cancer and is mainly aimed at people who have limited treatment options left.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04966663RecruitingPhase 2
Using blood DNA tests to guide lung cancer treatment
This study uses a blood test called ctDNA to look for leftover lung cancer after surgery. Based on that result, the trial will help decide which treatment approach is best for you and may catch cancer returning earlier.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04170946RecruitingPhase 1
Talazoparib plus chest radiation after extensive small-cell lung cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests whether the medicine talazopib, given along with chest radiation, can better control extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer after initial chemotherapy. It is for people whose cancer has not worsened after finishing standard chemotherapy.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT00301119Recruiting
Lung cancer screening using risk factors and test results
This study looks at how to find lung cancer earlier by screening people based on their lung-cancer risk. It may help doctors decide who needs further testing if lung nodules are found.
New York, New YorkAges 50 years+ - NCT07659782RecruitingPhase 2
Study of VS-7375 for KRAS G12D lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug, VS-7375, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific genetic change called KRAS G12D. It's for those who have already tried chemo and immunotherapy, and whose cancer has continued to grow.

This trial tests giving chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted radiation before surgery for people with non-small cell lung cancer that can be removed. The goal is to see if this combination shrinks tumors and improves outcomes.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07384897Recruiting
Immune cells in lung cancer and chronic lung disease
This study looks at how immune cells work in lung cancer and chronic lung diseases. It aims to find better ways to treat these conditions by studying immune cells from blood, bone marrow, or lung samples.
BrusselsAges Up to 80 years - NCT07373964RecruitingPhase 2
Study of new drug combo for extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (chidamide, a PD-L1 inhibitor, carboplatin, and etoposide) as the first treatment for people with extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if this combination works better than standard treatments.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT07175077Recruiting
7T MRI scan to find tiny brain metastases in small-cell lung cancer
This trial uses a powerful 7T MRI scanner to detect very small brain metastases in people with small-cell lung cancer who choose not to get preventive brain radiation. The goal is to see if this advanced scan can find hidden spots in the brain that regular MRIs miss.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07171606RecruitingPhase 2
Study of a new drug for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called SSGJ-706, either alone or with other treatments, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread or cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if it helps shrink or control the cancer.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT04199741RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
PET/CT scan test for small cell lung cancer marker DLL3
This trial tests a special PET/CT imaging scan that may help doctors find where small cell lung cancer (and some related tumors) are in the body using a DLL3 target. It’s a Phase 1/2 study, mainly to see how well the scan detects tumors and guides care.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03851445RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Lung cancer screening trial using tumor and blood test results
This trial helps sort people with previously treated lung cancer into the best next treatment options by using new tumor tissue (and sometimes blood) test results. It may help you get matched to therapies based on features like PD-L1 and other biomarkers.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04733430Recruiting
Study lung cancer care in real life
This study follows adults with confirmed lung cancer as they are diagnosed and treated in routine clinical practice. It aims to better understand how lung cancer is diagnosed and managed day-to-day, which may help improve future care.
ViennaAges 18–125 - NCT07654400RecruitingPhase 2
Study of BL-M14D1 plus Atezolizumab for advanced small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination (BL-M14D1 and Atezolizumab) for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the combination can shrink tumors or slow the growth of the cancer.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung cancer patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,877 recruiting lung cancer patients 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 lung cancer patients 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 patients 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.
