Study of ensartinib for advanced ALK-positive lung cancer
This real-world study looks at how ensartinib works in people with advanced ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose disease has continued or worsened after ALK-targeted therapy. It may help doctors understand how well the treatment works and who benefits most in everyday care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05715229RecruitingPhase 2
Blood test–guided treatment choice for advanced lung cancer
This Phase 2 study tests how results from blood cancer DNA tests (ctDNA) can help choose the best immune therapy approach for newly diagnosed, advanced lung cancer. It aims to improve outcomes by matching treatment decisions to a patient’s immune and blood test “profile.”
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05805631RecruitingPhase 2
Pemetrexed into spinal fluid for EGFR-mutant lung cancer spread to brain lining
This Phase 2 trial tests giving pemetrexed directly into the spinal fluid to treat cancer that has spread to the brain’s and spinal cord’s lining (leptomeningeal metastasis). It is for people with EGFR-mutant non-squamous lung cancer whose disease progressed after osimertinib, and who may benefit from a targeted treatment delivered to the area affected in the brain lining.
Taipei, TaiwanAges 20 years+ - NCT05885698Recruiting
Study of care patterns in newly diagnosed lung cancer
This observational study follows adults with newly diagnosed non-small cell lung cancer to understand what treatments are used and how patients are doing. It may help doctors better understand how care decisions affect outcomes, and it does not require the study to give an experimental treatment.
Daphne, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06262386Recruiting
Predicting lung cancer return after surgery
This study tests a new way to predict if non-small cell lung cancer will return after surgery. You will give blood samples to look for cancer cells, and the team will build a model to help plan better follow-up care.
