Recruiting studies in Maryland
- NCT05168566RecruitingPhase 2
Sutetinib for lung cancer with a specific EGFR change
This Phase 2 study tests sutetinib capsules in people with advanced (locally advanced or metastatic) non-small cell lung cancer. It’s for tumors that have a specific, uncommon EGFR mutation, and aims to see how well the drug can control the cancer with limited prior chemotherapy.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06350097RecruitingPhase 3
Osimertinib with or without another drug for advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This trial tests whether adding a new drug (datopotamab deruxtecan) to the standard targeted therapy osimertinib works better for advanced non-small cell lung cancer with certain EGFR mutations. It is for people who have not had chemotherapy or targeted therapy before.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06800339RecruitingPhase 1
Immunotherapy and radiation before surgery for lung cancer
This trial tests combining chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and a low dose of radiation before surgery for people with non-small cell lung cancer that is borderline resectable (can potentially be removed but is close to nearby structures). It aims to see if this approach can shrink the tumor enough to allow successful surgery.
Glen Burnie, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05600933Enrolling by invitation
Providing tumor samples to find new treatment targets
This study collects tumor tissue and related blood tests from people who already need a biopsy or surgery as part of their usual care. Researchers use the samples to learn what drives the tumor and how the tumor environment may affect treatment, which could help develop future therapies.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT02133196RecruitingPhase 2
T-cell treatment for lung cancer that has spread
This Phase 2 study tests a T-cell–based immunotherapy for people with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that has grown despite prior treatment. It may help your immune system recognize and fight your cancer using cells made from your tumor.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT06073431Recruiting
Study on weight loss types in advanced cancer

Elkton, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06692738RecruitingPhase 3
Is a new immunotherapy better than Keytruda for squamous lung cancer?
This trial tests a new drug called Rilvegostomig against the standard drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda), both combined with chemotherapy, as a first treatment for advanced squamous non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to see which combination works better.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05257551Recruiting
Small cell lung cancer data study using tumor and blood samples
This observational study collects information and lab samples from people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It may help researchers understand how patients respond and improve future care, but it usually does not add new treatment for you.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06417814RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Dato-DXd with or without osimertinib for EGFR-mutated lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug, Dato-DXd, given alone or with osimertinib, versus standard chemotherapy for people with a specific type of advanced lung cancer (EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer) that has worsened after osimertinib treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–130 - NCT04613596RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Adagrasib for KRAS G12C lung cancer, alone or with pembrolizumab
This trial studies adagrasib (an anti-cancer drug) either alone or with pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) in people with advanced lung cancer that has a KRAS G12C mutation. It aims to shrink tumors and improve outcomes, including for people without urgent brain treatment needs.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07098338RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combos for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests new drug combinations for people with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Depending on your PD-L1 level and genetic profile, you may be placed in one of three groups to see if these combinations help shrink or control your tumor.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05882058RecruitingPhase 2
Dose test of a DLL3 cancer drug for neuroendocrine tumors
This Phase 2 study tests how different doses of BI 764532 affect people with small cell lung cancer or certain other neuroendocrine cancers. It may help shrink tumors and improve symptoms after standard treatments have stopped working.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07144280RecruitingPhase 3
Study of a new drug vs docetaxel for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new experimental drug called PF-08046054/SGN-PDL1V against a standard chemotherapy (docetaxel) for people with a type of advanced lung cancer that has PD-L1 protein on at least 1% of tumor cells and has progressed after prior treatments. The goal is to see if the new drug works better or has fewer side effects.
Annapolis, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06712355RecruitingPhase 3
Testing an experimental drug with chemo for newly diagnosed extensive-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests an investigational drug called BNT327, given with standard chemotherapy, for people newly diagnosed with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if adding this drug improves outcomes compared to chemotherapy alone.
Frederick, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06778863RecruitingPhase 1
A study of CLSP-1025 for adults with certain solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called CLSP-1025 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific change in the p53 gene (R175H). The drug targets this change to help fight the cancer.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05642572RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug combinations for EGFR- and MET-changed lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests combinations of targeted medicines to treat advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has changes in both EGFR and MET genes. It is for people whose cancer continued to grow even after treatment with osimertinib, the most recent therapy.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06031688RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted treatment for lung cancer with a MET gene change
This trial tests a targeted drug for advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific genetic change called MET exon 14 skipping. It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth, and may help people who have or haven't had prior treatment.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 minutes+ - NCT06616584RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Cemiplimab plus standard care for advanced lung cancer after prior treatments
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug cemiplimab to standard treatment can help people with advanced lung cancer that has already progressed after both platinum chemo and a prior immunotherapy. It is designed for those who responded to their first immunotherapy for at least 12 weeks before the cancer started growing again.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT00068003Enrolling by invitation

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.
