High-dose Furmonertinib for advanced lung cancer after progression
This trial tests a higher dose of the targeted therapy Furmonertinib, either alone or with chemotherapy, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has progressed after initial treatment with a third-generation EGFR inhibitor like Osimertinib or Almonertinib.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06258642Recruiting
Irinotecan liposome plus anlotinib for SCLC after first chemo
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—irinotecan liposome (a chemotherapy) and anlotinib (a targeted therapy)—as a second treatment for small cell lung cancer that returned quickly after initial chemo. The goal is to see if this combo can work better than standard options.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06618599Recruiting
Two numbing injections for pain after lung cancer surgery
This study compares two types of numbing injections (one around the spine and another near the back muscles) to see which works better for pain relief after lung cancer surgery. It may help you have less pain and need fewer pain medicines.
CairoAges 18–65 - NCT06616766RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of YH42946 for advanced cancer with HER2 or EGFR changes
This trial tests a new drug (YH42946) in people with advanced solid tumors that have specific changes in HER2 or EGFR genes and have stopped responding to standard therapies. The drug aims to target these genetic changes to slow or shrink the cancer. Participants will be monitored closely for safety and how well the drug works.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06545747RecruitingPhase 3
MRI-guided radiation for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new way of giving radiation therapy for advanced lung cancer that cannot be surgically removed. It uses MRI scans to guide and adjust the radiation dose, which may help target the tumor more precisely and reduce side effects.
GuangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT06536868RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab with chemo and radiation for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab) with chemotherapy and chest radiation for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC) that has spread. The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink or control the cancer longer.
Jincheng, ShanxiAges 18–80 - NCT06518655Recruiting
Can a breath test tell if a lung nodule is cancer?
This trial is testing a simple breath test to see if it can tell whether a lung nodule is cancer or not. If you have a lung nodule that will be removed by surgery, you may be able to help find out if breathing into a device can replace more invasive tests.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06127303RecruitingPhase 2
Toripalimab plus cryoablation for lung cancer with limited progression
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (toripalimab) and a freezing treatment (cryoablation) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has started to grow again in only a few spots after initial treatment. It aims to see if this approach can help control the cancer without switching to a completely new therapy.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06512207Recruiting
Hormone therapy plus immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of hormone therapy (androgen deprivation) and an immunotherapy drug (anti-PD-1) for men with advanced lung cancer. It aims to see if this combination slows cancer growth better than standard treatments.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 60 years+ - NCT06491862Recruiting
Real-world outcomes after first treatment for advanced lung cancer in Brazil
This study looks at real-world treatment patterns and outcomes for people with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer in Brazil after standard treatments have failed. It aims to understand what happens next and how well different approaches work in everyday practice.
Belo Horizonte, Minas GeraisAges 18 years+ - NCT05278052RecruitingPhase 3
Maintenance therapy alone versus radiation plus maintenance for lung cancer
This trial compares standard maintenance treatment versus adding focused radiation to remaining limited (oligometastatic) spots in the body after initial chemotherapy. It aims to see whether treating those limited spots with radiation can improve outcomes without unacceptable side effects.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 18–99 - NCT05277844RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus targeted pill vs pill alone for EGFR/ALK-NSCLC
This study tests whether adding focused radiation to a targeted cancer pill works better than the pill by itself. It is for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumor has an EGFR or ALK/ROS driver mutation and who have not gotten worse after starting the targeted pill.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 18–99 - NCT05236946RecruitingPhase 3
Brain radiation timing study for gene-mutated lung cancer
This study compares giving brain radiation right away versus waiting, in people with lung cancer that has an EGFR or ALK gene change and has spread to the brain but causes no symptoms. It aims to see which approach helps control the brain cancer better and keeps quality of life stable.
Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 18–99 - NCT06457789Recruiting
PET scans to track immune response in lung cancer treatment
This study uses special PET scans to see how well your immune cells respond to immunotherapy given before surgery for non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to learn which patients benefit most from this treatment approach.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06448572RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
EXL01 and nivolumab for immunotherapy-resistant lung cancer
This trial tests an investigational microbiome therapy (EXL01) combined with nivolumab (an immunotherapy) for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer whose cancer continued to grow after standard immunotherapy and chemotherapy. The goal is to see if adding EXL01 can help the immune system fight the cancer again.
LilleAges 18 years+ - NCT06426511RecruitingPhase 2
Testing toripalimab after lung cancer surgery using ctDNA
This study tests whether a drug called toripalimab, given after lung cancer surgery, can help keep the cancer from coming back in people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. It uses a blood test (ctDNA) to look for leftover cancer cells and decide who might benefit most.

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.
