Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05889546Recruiting
Rapid autopsy protocol for small cell lung cancer patients
This study looks at a planned, faster way to collect information from patients’ bodies after death who have small cell lung cancer. The goal is to better understand the disease and potentially improve future care, with consent from the patient or their authorized representative.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT05903092RecruitingPhase 2
Monalizumab plus durvalumab for small cell lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether adding monalizumab to durvalumab (two immune-targeting medicines) can improve outcomes in people with small cell lung cancer. You may be able to join if you have certain stage of small cell lung cancer and have not had the specific prior treatments the study allows.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT05922345RecruitingPhase 3
Study drug vs docetaxel for advanced lung cancer after prior treatment
This Phase 3 trial compares AL2846 pills plus TQB2450 injections against standard chemotherapy (docetaxel) in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. You may qualify if your cancer has progressed after platinum chemotherapy and immunotherapy, and if certain tumor genetic tests are negative.

Study drugs for advanced small cell lung cancer after prior treatments
This Phase 2 trial tests how well two study drugs (and a combination of them) work in people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It’s mainly for patients whose cancer has come back or who couldn’t tolerate at least some standard treatments, and it aims to see if treatment can shrink tumors and be tolerable.
Changchun, JilinAges 18–75 - NCT05933239RecruitingPhase 2
PET-like scan using a special protein in lung cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether a new imaging medicine (a radiopharmaceutical) can highlight immune cells called macrophages in people with non-small cell lung cancer. It may help doctors better “see” and evaluate tumor tissue before a surgical biopsy or removal.
Jette, Brussels CapitalAges 18 years+ - NCT05961111RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Oncolytic virus injection for advanced solid tumors
This early-phase trial tests an injection of a virus designed to attack cancer cells in people with advanced solid tumors. It is meant for situations where standard treatments have not worked (or you can’t/won’t take them) and when doctors can directly deliver the treatment to a tumor spot.

Timing of brain radiation for ALK-positive lung cancer with brain mets
This trial tests whether it is better to delay brain radiation or give it right away in people with ALK-positive lung cancer that has spread to the brain and is causing few or no symptoms. If you are starting alectinib, you may be able to join and help find the best timing for radiation.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05990946Recruiting
Smartphone monitoring after lung cancer surgery
This trial tests if using a smartphone app to track your symptoms after minimally invasive lung cancer surgery can help you stick to your recovery exercises. It aims to improve your recovery by keeping you connected with your care team.
Zhongshan, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06006390RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR-T therapy for CEA-positive advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new treatment called CAR-T cells that are designed to find and attack cancer cells carrying a protein called CEA. It is for people with advanced colorectal, esophageal, stomach, or pancreatic cancer who have already tried other treatments.
Taiyuan, ShanxiAges 18 years+ - NCT06010862RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T therapy for CEA-positive advanced cancers
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (called CAR-T) that targets a protein called CEA on cancer cells. It is for people with advanced colorectal, esophageal, stomach, or pancreatic cancer who have already tried standard treatments without success.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18 years+ - NCT06019455Recruiting
How patients participate in lung and esophageal cancer care
This study looks at how much patients with lung or esophageal cancer get involved in decisions about their care when they receive chemotherapy and radiation together. It aims to learn what helps or challenges patients in taking an active role.
GuangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT06032052RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus immunotherapy for older adults with metastatic lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy for people 65 or older with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that has not been treated before and expresses PD-L1. It aims to see if this treatment can help control the cancer.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 65 years+ - NCT06037954Recruiting
Mental health support for older adults with cancer
This study offers mental health care for older adults (65+) with breast, colorectal, lung, or prostate cancer who are getting treatment or recently finished. It aims to help people who are also feeling depressed.
New York, New YorkAges 65 years+ - NCT06071013RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Nintedanib plus EGFR inhibitor for EGFR-mutated lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—nintedanib and an EGFR inhibitor—for people with EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer whose cancer has stopped responding to their first EGFR inhibitor treatment. The goal is to see if adding nintedanib can help control the cancer again.
TaichungAges 20–70 - NCT06070870Recruiting

How PD-1 therapy affects immune cells in advanced cancers
This study looks at how your immune system responds to PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy (drugs like Keytruda or Opdivo) for advanced melanoma, lung cancer, and similar cancers. It involves regular blood tests to track your immune cells, which may help doctors understand why these treatments work for some people better than others.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06076005Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung cancer patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,904 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.
