Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05344209RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus or minus vaccine for advanced lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies pembrolizumab (an immune-boosting cancer medicine) alone or with an added investigational UV1 vaccine in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to see whether adding the vaccine improves safety and effectiveness, especially in tumors with high PD-L1 levels.
Drammen, AkershusAges 18 years+ - NCT05361174RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing an IOV-4001 infusion for advanced melanoma or lung cancer
This trial studies how well and how safely an infusion called IOV-4001 works in adults with advanced melanoma or non-small-cell lung cancer that cannot be removed with surgery. It also aims to see what side effects occur and whether the treatment can help control the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT05398094RecruitingPhase 2
Sotorasib for KRAS-mutant Stage III lung cancer without chemo-radiation
This Phase 2 study tests sotorasib (also called AMG510) in people with Stage III lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery and that has a specific KRAS mutation (p.G12C). You may be able to join if you cannot safely receive chemo-radiotherapy at the same time, and the study checks whether sotorasib can help shrink or control the cancer.
Alicante, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT05468242RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab after lung cancer chemotherapy and radiation
This Phase 2 study tests tislelizumab (an immune medicine) given after chemotherapy and radiation for stage III non-small cell lung cancer that has not been treated before. It may help improve how well the cancer responds and how long patients can stay in remission, with or without an added medication called bevacizumab.
GuangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT05501665RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Adaptive radiation plus pembrolizumab for stage IV lung cancer
This trial tests a personalized (“adaptive”) radiation plan combined with pembrolizumab, and possibly chemotherapy, for advanced stage IV lung cancer. It aims to improve cancer control while carefully managing side effects, including in patients with certain brain metastases.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05502523Recruiting
Blood test DNA levels after lung surgery
This study looks at how different lung surgical techniques affect levels of tumor DNA in the blood before and after surgery for early-stage lung cancer. It may help doctors choose surgical approaches and use a blood test to monitor cancer after surgery.
Abington, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05503667RecruitingPhase 2
Testing EGFR drugs before lung surgery in certain stage III cancers
This trial tests whether taking furmonertinib alone, or furmonertinib plus bevacizumab, before surgery can improve outcomes for people with EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma that has not spread to distant organs. It may help shrink the tumor and make surgery more effective.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05557552Recruiting
Chemo and immunotherapy plus chest radiation for stage III lung cancer
This trial studies a treatment plan that combines chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiation to the chest for people with unresectable stage III non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It may help by delivering anti-cancer drugs while also shrinking tumors with targeted radiation, especially for people who are not able to have the standard “chemo and radiation at the same time.”
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05624996RecruitingPhase 3
Targeted high-dose radiation added to standard lung cancer treatment
