Study drug for advanced lung cancer with a specific genetic change
This Phase 2 trial tests ZEN003694 in people with squamous (a type of) lung cancer that has returned or spread. It’s designed for tumors that have a certain gene change, and it may offer a new treatment option after prior chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05681780RecruitingPhase 1
CD40L-treated immune cells for advanced lung cancer with certain gene changes
This Phase 1 study tests a lab-made immune cell treatment (TIL) boosted with CD40L, plus nivolumab, for stage IV or returning non-small cell lung cancer with specific gene changes (EGFR, ALK, ROS1, or HER2). It aims to help your immune system attack the cancer after it has grown despite standard treatments.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05699213Recruiting
MRI and blood tests for lung nodules found on screening
This study looks at whether MRI scans and blood-related biomarkers can help better understand lung nodules found during routine lung cancer screening. It may help doctors decide which nodules need closer follow-up versus less intensive monitoring.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 50 years+ - NCT05704920Recruiting
AI-based support for lung cancer screening scans
This trial tests whether using artificial intelligence (computer pattern-recognition) with lung screening images can help identify people who may have lung cancer earlier. It’s meant for people at higher risk because of their smoking history, who can follow the screening steps.
Nice, Alpes-maritimesAges 18–80 - NCT05724264Recruiting
Lung cancer screening using CT and blood marker tests
This study tests whether combining low-dose chest CT scans with blood “biomarker” tests can help find lung cancer earlier in people at higher risk. You may be asked to have scans and blood tests and then attend follow-up visits over time.
