Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07871656Recruiting
Detecting lung cancer in non-smokers through urine
This study uses a simple urine test to help detect lung cancer in people who have never smoked but have a lung spot (nodule) on their CT scan. It may lead to a new, non-invasive way to check for cancer without needing a biopsy.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05775939Recruiting
PET/CT scan study to track heart damage from cancer radiation
This study uses a special scan (PET/CT) to look for early heart (cardiac) injury caused by radiation treatment for lung or esophageal cancer. If you may be at higher heart risk from your planned radiation dose, the scan may help researchers better measure that damage over time.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04165798Recruiting
Pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy for stage IV lung cancer
This trial tests whether pembrolizumab alone, or pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy, can treat stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. It may help shrink tumors and improve outcomes by boosting the immune system, with or without added chemotherapy.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07277413RecruitingPhase 1
Study of IDE892 for advanced solid tumors with MTAP deletion
This study tests a new drug called IDE892, alone or in combination, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic change (MTAP deletion). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and whether it can shrink tumors.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06933758Recruiting
Temple Health Chest Lung Screening Study
This study looks at how a hospital program can help people who are at risk for lung cancer get the proper screening and follow-up care. You may be eligible if you are a Temple patient and have had a low-dose CT scan for lung cancer screening.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 50–80 - NCT07513376RecruitingPhase 3
Adjuvant vaccine plus immunotherapy for high-risk early lung cancer
This trial tests whether giving a personalized cancer vaccine (Intismeran) with or without an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab) after lung cancer surgery can help prevent the cancer from coming back in patients with early-stage, high-risk non-small cell lung cancer.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05059444Recruiting
Blood test to catch cancer early after treatment
This study looks for signs of cancer left in the body after treatment using a simple blood test (called a liquid biopsy). It aims to see if the test can catch cancer that might come back earlier than regular scans.

What taking part in a lung cancer study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
