Recruiting studies
- NCT06198868Recruiting
MRD blood test to guide treatment in lung cancer
This trial uses a blood test (ctDNA and CTC) to check for minimal residual disease (MRD) after treatment for stage IIA-IIIC non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if MRD can help predict whether the cancer will come back and guide decisions on extra treatment to prevent recurrence.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - NCT06848699RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing HLX43 plus Serplulimab for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new combination of two cancer drugs (HLX43 and Serplulimab) for people with advanced solid tumors, especially those with a specific type of lung cancer (NSCLC) that has an EGFR mutation. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Hunan, ChangshaAges 18–75 - NCT07486219Recruiting
Lung MRI for staging tumors and nodes
This trial uses advanced lung MRI scans to get more detail on tumors and lymph nodes. It may help people with non-small cell lung cancer to get a clearer picture of their cancer stage without extra radiation.
PaviaAges 18 years+ - NCT06419179Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Maintenance therapy for HRD-positive small-cell lung cancer
This trial tests whether a combination of two medications, durvalumab and olaparib, can help keep your extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer from coming back after standard first-line treatment. It is for people whose tumors have a specific genetic feature called HRD.
Cologne, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18–120 - NCT06370416Enrolling by invitationPhase 2

This trial tests if trilaciclib can protect your bone marrow during chemotherapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to reduce side effects like low blood counts, which can cause fatigue, infections, or bleeding.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT07039656RecruitingPhase 2
Toripalimab plus chemo after NSCLC surgery
This trial tests adding the immunotherapy drug toripalimab to chemotherapy after surgery for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It is for patients who either had no treatment before surgery or had chemo-immunotherapy before surgery and still have signs of cancer in their lymph nodes. The goal is to see if this combination helps prevent cancer from coming back.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06780085RecruitingPhase 2
Study of new drugs for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests new treatments for people with stage IV nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer that has gotten worse after prior immunotherapy and chemotherapy. It aims to find better options for those whose cancer has specific genetic features.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT05526924RecruitingPhase 1
Phase 1 trial tests re-radiation plus immunotherapy and a cancer pill
This trial studies whether adding a checkpoint immunotherapy (tislelizumab) and a cancer pill (pamiparib) to radiation can better treat cancer that has come back in the head and neck. It’s for adults with previously treated, HPV-positive oropharynx tumors, usually without widespread spread.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07082179RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemotherapy for stage III lung cancer
This trial tests combining immunotherapy with chemotherapy for people with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see if this combination can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
NanjingAges 18–75 - NCT06531434RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Best treatment plan for advanced esophageal cancer
This trial is for people with T4 esophageal cancer, where the tumor has spread to nearby organs. It aims to find the best treatment approach to improve outcomes.
Tainan, TaiwanAges 18–70 - NCT06493019RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab with chemo and radiation for early anal cancer
This trial tests a combination of the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab, two chemotherapy drugs (carboplatin and paclitaxel), and radiation for people with early-stage anal cancer who cannot take the usual chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective as an alternative treatment.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT05830812Recruiting
Improve accuracy of lung cancer invasiveness diagnosis during surgery
This trial looks to improve how doctors judge how “invasive” a small lung adenocarcinoma is while you’re having surgery. Better accuracy may help guide treatment decisions for people with early-stage, operable lung cancer.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 20–80 - NCT06385717Recruiting
ESD plus chemoradiotherapy for early esophageal cancer
This study tests whether combining radiation and chemotherapy after endoscopic removal of early-stage esophageal cancer can effectively treat the cancer without needing surgery. It may be an option for people whose cancer was removed with ESD but who want to avoid additional surgery.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06788548Recruiting
Fluorescence-Guided Surgery for Early Stomach Cancer
This trial tests a new technique that uses a special dye to highlight the first lymph nodes where stomach cancer might spread, allowing surgeons to remove only the necessary nodes during surgery. The goal is to reduce side effects while still effectively treating the cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06088771RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of dupilumab and cemiplimab before lung cancer surgery
This study tests two drugs, dupilumab and cemiplimab, given before surgery for early-stage lung cancer. The goal is to see if these immune-boosting medicines can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05011487RecruitingPhase 2
Before-surgery osimertinib plus chemotherapy for EGFR lung cancer
This study tests whether giving osimertinib together with chemotherapy before surgery can shrink and control EGFR-mutant, stage III lung cancer so it can be fully removed. If it works, it may improve the chances that the cancer does not come back after surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05295212RecruitingPhase 2
Atezolizumab plus chemo before surgery for lung cancer
This trial studies whether adding atezolizumab (an immune medicine) to standard platinum-based chemotherapy before surgery can improve outcomes for operable stage II–IIIB non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to shrink the tumor and increase the chance the cancer can be removed with better results.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT06123754RecruitingPhase 3
Envafolimab plus chemo for stage III NSCLC before surgery
This trial tests a new immunotherapy (Envafolimab) combined with standard chemotherapy before and after surgery for stage III non-small cell lung cancer that can be removed. The goal is to see if adding Envafolimab helps shrink the tumor and improve outcomes compared to chemotherapy alone.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06313541RecruitingPhase 2
Adaptive radiation with immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial is testing a combination of immunotherapy and targeted radiation for people with advanced lung cancer that has no targetable gene changes. The goal is to see if adjusting radiation based on how well the tumor responds can improve outcomes.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07131319RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Combination therapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new treatment combining stereotactic radiation (SFRT), the immunotherapy tislelizumab, and platinum chemotherapy for people with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that can't be removed with surgery. It aims to see if this combination helps shrink or control the cancer better.

HC010 plus chemotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug called HC010 combined with chemotherapy for people with advanced lung cancer, including certain types of non-small cell or small cell lung cancer. It aims to see if the combination is safe and effective.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT02984761Recruiting
Surgery vs focused radiation for early lung cancer
This trial compares two ways to treat early-stage lung cancer: surgery or a precise type of radiation called stereotactic radiotherapy. It aims to find out which approach works best for people whose cancer is small and has not spread.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03953144RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
3D lung surgery planning with a dye to find tumors
This trial tests a new way to plan and guide lung cancer surgery using a special dye that shows the tumor area during the operation. It may help surgeons remove the cancer more accurately while targeting only a small section of lung for certain early-stage patients.
