Testing two study drugs for advanced lung cancer and other tumors
This Phase 2 study tests a combination of two experimental medicines in people with advanced or metastatic solid cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer and nasopharyngeal cancer. It aims to see whether the drugs can shrink tumors and improve outcomes, while carefully checking safety and eligibility.

This trial tests if doing exercise before lung cancer surgery can help people with moderate-to-high risk. Participants will exercise for a short period to see if it improves their recovery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06222489RecruitingPhase 2
HER3 PET scan for advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This study uses a special PET/CT scan to measure a protein called HER3 in your tumors. The scan uses a radioactive version of the drug patritumab deruxtecan (HER3-DXd). This test may help doctors understand how much HER3 is in your cancer and decide if HER3-targeted therapy could work for you.

LDRT, immunotherapy, chemo, and olaparib for SLFN-11 positive SCLC
This trial tests a combination of low-dose radiation, an immunotherapy drug (sugemalimab), chemotherapy, and a targeted drug (olaparib) as a first treatment for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has a specific marker called SLFN-11. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and works better than standard treatment.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT06170788RecruitingPhase 3
New Two-Drug Immunotherapy Combo vs. Standard Immunotherapy for Advanced Lung Cancer
This study compares a new combination of two immunotherapy drugs (sacituzumab tirumotecan plus pembrolizumab) versus pembrolizumab alone for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a high PD-L1 level (≥50%) and has not been treated yet. The goal is to see if the combination works better than the standard single immunotherapy.

MUC1 peptide vaccine study for non-small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a vaccine made from a lung-cancer target (MUC1) to help your immune system recognize and fight the cancer. It is designed to measure immune response and safety, and it may help some people develop a stronger anti-cancer immune reaction.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06095505RecruitingPhase 2
Alisertib for extensive stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called alisertib for people with small cell lung cancer that has spread. It is for those who have already tried standard treatments (chemotherapy and immunotherapy) and need another option.
Daphne, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT00280202Recruiting
Find lung cancer genetic markers from tissue samples
This study looks for specific genetic markers of lung cancer by testing tissue taken from a lung mass. It may help doctors detect and better understand lung cancer based on genetic clues.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06095583RecruitingPhase 3
Toripalimab for limited-stage small cell lung cancer after chemoradiation
This trial tests whether adding toripalimab (an immunotherapy) or toripalimab plus another immunotherapy (tifcemalimab) after standard chemoradiation can help prevent small cell lung cancer from coming back. It is for people with limited-stage disease who have finished initial treatment without the cancer growing.
Harbin, HeilongjiangAges 18 years+ - NCT05558904RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
PET/CT scan to help find early lung cancer
This trial tests a special PET/CT scan to spot early lung cancer by finding specific body processes linked to cancer. It compares scan results in people with lung nodules that are either cancer (lung adenocarcinoma) or likely benign.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06043817RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of STX-721 for advanced lung cancer with EGFR or HER2 changes
This trial tests a new drug, STX-721, for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific genetic change (EGFR or HER2 exon 20 insertion). The study aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung cancer (suspected or confirmed)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 6,575 recruiting lung cancer (suspected or confirmed) studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a lung cancer (suspected or confirmed) trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a lung cancer (suspected or confirmed) trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
