Lung cancer clinical trials in Maryland
We’re tracking 128 recruiting lung cancer studies with a site in Maryland — including Phase 1 and Phase 3 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in Maryland
- NCT05171478Recruiting
Test imaging on small lung biopsy samples during bronchoscopy
This study uses a special eye-like scanning camera (full-field optical coherence tomography) to look at tiny lung tissue samples taken during routine bronchoscopy. It may help doctors learn more from small biopsies used to diagnose or stage lung problems.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05317858RecruitingPhase 3
Open the brain’s blood barrier to treat lung cancer brain spots
This trial tests whether using focused ultrasound to temporarily open the brain’s blood barrier—plus standard immune therapy—can better treat non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread to the brain. It aims to help medicines reach the brain tumor spots more effectively, while still using the usual lung cancer treatment.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–100 - NCT05236114Recruiting
Study of blood and tumor tests for lung cancer treatment
This study looks at how tumor and blood biomarker results can guide treatment for people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Depending on the cancer stage, it may follow standard-of-care treatment plans around surgery or first-line immunotherapy.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04945317Enrolling by invitation
ROSE to improve lung cancer marker testing with a breathing scope
This trial studies a quick scan method (called ROSE) during bronchoscopy to help doctors get the right lung cancer tissue and test cancer markers more accurately. If you are being evaluated for non-small cell lung cancer, the study may improve how well and how fast your samples can be tested.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT04686305RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug T-DXd plus immunotherapy, with or without chemotherapy for HER2+ lung cancer
This Phase 1 study tests the safety (and early effectiveness) of T-DXd combined with immunotherapy, sometimes also with chemotherapy, in people with advanced lung cancer that is HER2-positive. It may help if standard options have been limited or your tumor does not have certain genetic changes that already have targeted treatments.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06418204Recruiting
Cannabis use among cancer patients in community clinics
This study looks at how cancer patients use cannabis (marijuana) and cannabis products to manage symptoms during chemotherapy or immunotherapy. The goal is to learn about the benefits and risks so doctors can better guide patients.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06995898Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection
This study is testing a new blood test that may help find cancer early. You will give blood samples over a year, and researchers will check them for signs of cancer.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 45–75 - NCT06885697RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T-cell therapy for mesothelioma and other solid tumors
This study tests a new kind of immunotherapy called CAR T-cells that are designed to find and attack cancer cells with a protein called mesothelin on their surface. It may help people with mesothelioma or other solid tumors that have not improved with standard treatments.

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.

Common questions
- Are there lung cancer clinical trials in Maryland?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 128 recruiting lung cancer studies with a site in Maryland, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a lung cancer study in Maryland?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Maryland to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Maryland, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a lung cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New lung cancer studies open in Maryland regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
