Huntersville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT04550104RecruitingPhase 1
Durvalumab with radiation for lung cancer patients
This trial tests adding durvalumab (an immune therapy) to a radiation treatment plan for people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who can’t safely have chemotherapy at the same time or surgery first. It aims to improve cancer control after radiation by helping the immune system recognize and fight the tumor.
BelfastAges 18 years+ - NCT05236114Recruiting
Study of blood and tumor tests for lung cancer treatment
This study looks at how tumor and blood biomarker results can guide treatment for people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Depending on the cancer stage, it may follow standard-of-care treatment plans around surgery or first-line immunotherapy.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05167487Recruiting
Study of treatment effects after chemotherapy and surgery for lung cancer
This trial looks at how lung tumors respond after chemotherapy given before surgery in people with stage IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It may help doctors understand which past treatments lead to better results, since it uses medical records from approved clinical cases.
A Coruña, A CoruñaAges 18 years+ - NCT05119244Recruiting
Study of environment factors in lung cancer
This study looks at how environmental factors may relate to lung cancer in adults. If you are between 18 and 59 and were treated for primary lung cancer at a participating hospital, you may be able to join.
Le Plessis-RobinsonAges 18–59 - NCT05122806Recruiting
Study of cancer biology in ALK-positive advanced lung cancer
This study looks at biological changes in advanced lung cancer that has an ALK rearrangement, using regular blood samples (and sometimes tumor tissue if available). It may help researchers better understand how this cancer behaves and how it responds to first-line ALK-targeted treatment.
Saint-Denis, La RéunionAges 18 years+ - NCT04933903RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant low-dose radiation plus immunotherapy before lung surgery
This trial tests whether giving low-dose focused radiation and two immunotherapy drugs before lung surgery can improve outcomes for people with operable, resectable non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to shrink or control the cancer before surgery and help reduce the chance it comes back.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT04954625Enrolling by invitation
Blood patch treatment for leaking air after lung surgery
This study looks at whether an “autologous blood patch” (using your own blood) can help stop an air leak after certain lung operations. It’s designed for adults who still have an air leak on the morning of the third day after surgery.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT04782752Recruiting
Radiation before lung transplant to help stop lung cancer spread
This study tests a focused, low-dose type of radiation given before a lung transplant. The goal is to help your immune system recognize and attack cancer cells (called “radiovaccination”) and improve outcomes for people who cannot get curative treatment with surgery or SBRT alone.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04849481Recruiting
Precision medicine planning for advanced lung cancer tissue testing
This trial uses your tumor sample to guide personalized treatment decisions for certain lung cancers. It may help by matching you to a more targeted plan based on genetic testing and your prior treatment history.
Chiayi CityAges 20 years+ - NCT04686305RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug T-DXd plus immunotherapy, with or without chemotherapy for HER2+ lung cancer
This Phase 1 study tests the safety (and early effectiveness) of T-DXd combined with immunotherapy, sometimes also with chemotherapy, in people with advanced lung cancer that is HER2-positive. It may help if standard options have been limited or your tumor does not have certain genetic changes that already have targeted treatments.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04585490RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a personalized add-on treatment after stage III lung cancer
This phase 3 trial tests whether tailoring the next (add-on) treatments can improve outcomes after standard chemoradiation and immunotherapy for stage III, unresectable (not operable) non-small cell lung cancer. It specifically looks at giving durvalumab plus an additional drug (tremelimumab) and possibly other consolidation chemotherapy based on a personalized plan.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04591002RecruitingPhase 2
Osimertinib after lung cancer surgery to slow new lung spots
This trial studies osimertinib, a targeted medicine, after surgery to help stop lung cancer from growing or spreading. It’s for people with an early lung cancer that has EGFR mutations and leftover “ground-glass” lung spots in another area.
Seoul, KangnamguAges 30–75 - NCT04317534RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab after lung cancer surgery versus observation
This trial tests whether pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy drug) given after complete surgery can lower the chance that early-stage lung cancer comes back. You’ll be compared to standard follow-up without extra treatment to see if the drug helps more people stay cancer-free.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04086082Recruiting
Marker-free X-ray guidance during lung radiotherapy
This study tests a way to guide lung radiation using X-ray images during treatment, without using implanted tracking markers for every step. It may help doctors target tumors more accurately while you receive external beam radiotherapy.
Melbourne, VictoriaAges 18 years+ - NCT03872661RecruitingPhase 2
New lung cancer medicines before surgery for unresectable stage III
This Phase 2 trial tests a combination of IBI308 plus bevacizumab and pemetrexed/carboplatin given before surgery, aiming to shrink or control unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer. It may help some people become eligible for surgery and improve outcomes, while also testing safety and effectiveness.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT03578185Recruiting
Genetic testing to predict response to lung cancer immunotherapy
This study looks at genetic (DNA) information to find a marker that can help predict whether immunotherapy will work for lung cancer. If you’ve already received an immune checkpoint inhibitor, your tumor/genetic data may be analyzed to look for clues that guide treatment.
Seoul, Gangnam-guAges 18 years+ - NCT02941458Recruiting
Registry for people with chest (thoracic) tumors
This study is a registry that collects information from people who have tumors in the chest. It may include people receiving active treatment or only comfort (palliative) care, helping researchers learn about these conditions.
Ferrol, A CoruñaAges Any age - NCT04305834RecruitingPhase 2
Abemaciclib plus hormone pills for metastatic breast cancer in older adults
This Phase 2 study tests whether abemaciclib combined with standard hormone (endocrine) therapy can better control metastatic breast cancer in people age 70 and older. It may help if your cancer has already grown despite prior hormone therapy and/or other cancer medicines.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 70 years+ - NCT06976892RecruitingPhase 1
Idetrexed and Olaparib for ovarian cancer
This trial tests two drugs, idetrexed and olaparib, in people with a type of ovarian cancer that has stopped responding to standard treatments. It aims to see if this combination can help shrink or control the cancer.
