Herbs plus chemo and immunotherapy to prevent lung cancer spread
This study looks at whether staged Chinese herbal medicine added to standard treatment can lower the risk of lung cancer coming back or spreading after surgery. It is for people with stage Ib to IIIb non-small cell lung cancer whose tests show no “driver gene” targets.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–74 - NCT06528418Recruiting
Breath test to find lung diseases
This study uses a simple breath test to detect different lung diseases. By analyzing the chemicals in your breath, researchers hope to find a faster, non-invasive way to diagnose lung conditions. It may be an option if you have a known lung disease and have a recent CT scan.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–100 - NCT07751536Recruiting
Proton radiation and intrathecal chemo for lung cancer that has spread to the brain lining
This trial tests a combination of proton radiation to the brain and spine plus chemotherapy given directly into the fluid around the brain and spinal cord. It is for people with a specific type of lung cancer (EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer) that has spread to the lining of the brain and has continued to grow despite taking a third-generation TKI medicine like osimertinib.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT05468242RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab after lung cancer chemotherapy and radiation
This Phase 2 study tests tislelizumab (an immune medicine) given after chemotherapy and radiation for stage III non-small cell lung cancer that has not been treated before. It may help improve how well the cancer responds and how long patients can stay in remission, with or without an added medication called bevacizumab.
GuangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT07412262RecruitingPhase 2
Study of chidamide and ivonescimab for advanced lung cancer after immunotherapy resistance
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (chidamide and ivonescimab) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that stopped responding to initial immunotherapy and has a specific protein marker (YAP) at high levels. It aims to see if this new combination can help when standard immunotherapy no longer works.
