Shanghai, ChinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05332925Recruiting
Tumor samples grown in dishes to predict immunotherapy response
This study takes small biopsy samples of your lung cancer and grows them in a dish to predict how well immunotherapy will work. If you qualify, you’ll receive standard immunotherapy (anti-PD-1/L1, with or without anti-CTLA-4), and the results from the dish-grown tumors will be compared to your real-world response.
Fairway, KansasAges 18–110 - NCT06286150Recruiting
Testing a new single-port robot for lung surgery
This trial studies a new surgical robot that uses only one small opening in the chest to remove a lung segment or lobe. It aims to see if the robot is safe and effective for patients who need this type of surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06276088Recruiting
SAA1 levels to predict cancer immunotherapy response
This trial measures a protein called SAA1 in your blood and tumor tissue to see if it can predict how your cancer will respond to immunotherapy. It aims to understand why some patients have rapid tumor growth after treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06223711RecruitingPhase 2
Durvalumab with radiation therapy for limited-spread small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of durvalumab (immunotherapy) plus radiation and chemotherapy for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has only a few distant spots. The goal is to see if this approach helps control the cancer better.
