Study on cell changes in lung cancer with RB1/TP53 gene changes
This trial looks at what happens when certain types of non-small cell lung cancer—those with changes in the RB1 and TP53 genes—start to change into another type of lung cancer after treatment. It may help find better ways to treat this specific kind of cancer in the future.

TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07624318Recruiting
TROP2 Lung Cancer Tissue Study
This research study analyzes lung cancer tissue samples to understand a protein called TROP2 and how it might help guide treatment decisions. You may qualify if you have non-squamous lung cancer and haven't received prior systemic chemotherapy or immunotherapy for advanced disease.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07613424Recruiting
Gene Testing Study for Advanced Lung Cancer
This study collects and analyzes lung cancer tissue samples to understand genetic differences that may help guide future treatment. You'll provide a tissue sample (either from a biopsy or prior surgery), and researchers will study it—no treatment is given in this study.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05598528Recruiting
Study why some lung cancers don’t respond to EGFR pills
This study looks at why certain EGFR-positive advanced lung cancers resist third-generation EGFR tablet treatment given as the first treatment. Your body samples and scan results help researchers understand the resistance, which may guide better future care.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT07596121RecruitingPhase 2
Serplulimab for Advanced Lung Cancer in Older Adults
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug called serplulimab in patients aged 65 and older with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The drug works by helping your immune system fight cancer cells that have a specific marker called PD-L1.
Xi'an, ShannxiAges 65 years+ - NCT06496048RecruitingPhase 3
Testing lurbinectedin for small cell lung cancer that has returned
This trial compares a new drug combination (lurbinectedin with or without irinotecan) against the standard treatment (topotecan) for people whose small cell lung cancer has come back after initial chemotherapy. It aims to see if the new options work better.
Jilin CityAges 18 years+ - NCT06735391RecruitingPhase 3
JMT101 plus osimertinib vs osimertinib for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two targeted drugs (JMT101 and osimertinib) against osimertinib alone for people with advanced lung cancer that has an EGFR mutation. The goal is to see if the combination works better as a first treatment.
