Study of immunotherapy plus targeted therapy and chemo before surgery for lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (adebrelimab), a targeted therapy (apatinib), and chemotherapy given before surgery for people with limited-stage small cell lung cancer.

New drug combo vs standard care for limited-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (atigotatug and nivolumab) against the standard drug durvalumab for people with limited-stage small cell lung cancer who have completed chemotherapy and radiation without the cancer getting worse. The goal is to see if the new combination works better at keeping the cancer from coming back.
Daphne, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07251582RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing infusion timing for lung cancer immunotherapy before surgery
This trial tests whether the timing of immunotherapy infusion before surgery improves how well the tumor responds in people with stage II to III non-small cell lung cancer. It combines immunotherapy with standard chemotherapy to shrink the tumor before it is removed.

Testing sotorasib for untreated lung cancer with KRAS G12C mutation
This trial tests an oral targeted drug called sotorasib for people with a specific type of advanced lung cancer (KRAS G12C mutation) who have not had any prior treatment for their advanced disease. It aims to see if this drug can shrink tumors and help patients without using standard chemotherapy or immunotherapy first.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06547710Recruiting
Surgery for lung cancer that has spread to the lining of the lung
This trial tests if removing the main lung tumor can help patients whose cancer has spread to the lining of the lung (M1a stage) but not to other organs. It is for people who have not had any prior treatment for lung cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06907160Recruiting
Chemotherapy plus immunotherapy before lung cancer surgery
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy given before surgery for stage II or III non-small cell lung cancer. Doctors will look at biomarkers in your blood and tissue to see how the cancer responds, which could help guide future treatments.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05651802Recruiting
Brain MRI follow-up with or without preventive scans in SCLC
This study tests whether adding a preventive brain procedure (PCI) to standard follow-up brain MRIs helps people with limited-stage small-cell lung cancer stay disease-free longer. It compares “MRI only” versus “MRI plus PCI” after the cancer has fully responded to initial treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07122687RecruitingPhase 2
IBI363 or Pembrolizumab with Chemo before Lung Cancer Surgery
This trial tests two different drug combinations (IBI363 plus chemo versus pembrolizumab plus chemo) given before surgery for people with a specific type of lung cancer. The goal is to see which approach works better at shrinking the tumor and helping patients recover.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT06610734RecruitingPhase 2
Combination treatment for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer
This study tests a new combination treatment for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. You would receive an immunotherapy drug (adebrelimab) together with chemotherapy and a very low dose of chest radiation, to see if this helps control the cancer better.
SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT07203053RecruitingPhase 2
Tarlatamab for advanced small cell lung cancer after first treatment
This trial tests a new drug called tarlatamab for people with advanced small cell lung cancer that has worsened after one prior round of chemotherapy plus immunotherapy. It's designed for patients who are still active but may need extra support (ECOG 2).
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT07226544RecruitingPhase 2
Ivonescimab before surgery for high-risk kidney cancer
This trial tests giving the drug ivonescimab before surgery for patients with high-risk clear cell kidney cancer. The goal is to see if it can help shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05334069Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection in patients
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.

Comparing treatment timing for stage II-IIIB lung cancer
This trial is for people with a certain type of lung cancer (non-small cell lung cancer) that can be surgically removed. It tests whether it is better to receive treatment before or after surgery to remove the cancer.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06449313RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy before lung cancer surgery for stage 3 disease
This trial tests whether giving chemotherapy plus immunotherapy before surgery can help shrink stage 3 lung cancer and improve outcomes. The goal is to make the tumor easier to remove and possibly lower the chance of it coming back.

This trial tests a new cell therapy that uses your own immune cells to attack cancer. It's for people with small cell lung cancer that has come back or not responded to standard treatments.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06980038RecruitingPhase 2
Testing two immunotherapy drugs before surgery for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding a second immunotherapy drug (CDX-1140) to the standard immunotherapy cemiplimab before surgery is better than cemiplimab alone for people with stage III-IV head and neck cancer that can be removed with surgery.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03866382RecruitingPhase 2
