Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT06908070RecruitingPhase 4
Chemoradiation, surgery, then durvalumab for stage 3 lung cancer
This trial tests if giving the immunotherapy drug durvalumab after chemoradiation and surgery helps people with stage 3 non-small cell lung cancer. You will receive standard chemoradiation, then have surgery, and then get durvalumab to see if it lowers the chance of the cancer coming back.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT05713006RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Alectinib drug handling study for ALK-positive advanced lung cancer
This early-phase trial studies how alectinib (an ALK-blocking medicine) moves through the body and how it’s tolerated in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has an ALK rearrangement. You may be considered if you have ALK-positive, recurrent or advanced disease and have already had specific prior treatments.
Mexico City, Mexico CityAges 18 years+ - NCT05628376Recruiting
Tracking lung cancer evolution through treatment
This study follows people with lung cancer over time to see how the disease changes, especially during and after treatment.

Study of AK146D1 and AK112 for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of two experimental drugs, AK146D1 and AK112, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or treated with standard chemo-radiation. It aims to find out if this combination can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07623356RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of AK138D1 alone or with ivonescimab for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug called AK138D1, either by itself or combined with another drug (ivonescimab), for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has spread. It aims to see if these treatments are safe and effective.
