Badalona, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06680050RecruitingPhase 2
Study of radiation plus two drugs for advanced lung cancer after prior treatment
This trial tests whether adding two drugs, durvalumab and ceralasertib, after radiotherapy can help patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer whose cancer has come back in the chest or spread to a few other spots after previous treatment with durvalumab. It aims to improve outcomes by boosting the immune system's ability to fight the cancer.
BresciaAges 18 years+ - NCT06734702RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy before chemo-radiation for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new approach for people with stage III lung cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. You would receive immunotherapy (to help your immune system fight cancer) plus chemotherapy first, then standard chemo-radiation, and finally more immunotherapy. The goal is to see if this sequence works better than standard treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07131670Recruiting
Tracking symptoms during lung cancer chemoradiation
This study uses an app to track symptoms like pain and fatigue in patients with advanced lung cancer receiving chemotherapy and radiation. The goal is to see if digital check-ins can improve care and quality of life.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07751783Recruiting
Exercise program for cancer survivors
This trial helps people who have finished cancer treatment start a supervised exercise routine to improve their health. It tests whether a structured program with professional guidance is safe and helpful.
Kaohsiung, TaiwanAges 18–80 - NCT05239546RecruitingPhase 2
Dostarlimab before colon surgery for mismatch-repair–deficient cancer
This study tests dostarlimab given before surgery for stage II or III colon cancer that has a specific DNA repair defect. It aims to shrink or control the cancer so that some people may be able to skip surgery if the results are good.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18 years+ - NCT06312137RecruitingPhase 3
Pembrolizumab with or without another drug for lung cancer after surgery
This trial tests adding a new drug (sacituzumab tirumotecan) to pembrolizumab for people with non-small cell lung cancer that did not completely disappear after initial treatment and surgery. The goal is to see if the combination works better than pembrolizumab alone.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06452277RecruitingPhase 3
Testing sevabertinib for advanced HER2-mutated lung cancer
This trial compares a new targeted drug called sevabertinib against standard chemotherapy plus immunotherapy for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific HER2 gene mutation. The goal is to see if sevabertinib works better and is safe.

Short vs long treatment for stage II-III rectal cancer with dMMR
This trial tests how long you need a PD-1 immunotherapy before surgery for a specific type of rectal cancer (dMMR/MSI-H). It looks at whether a shorter or longer course works best. This could mean fewer side effects and a quicker path to surgery.
