Recruiting studies in New Jersey
- NCT04991025RecruitingPhase 2
Adding certolizumab to chemotherapy and nivolumab for lung cancer
This study tests whether adding an extra medication, certolizumab, to the usual chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug called nivolumab can help people with early-stage lung cancer before they have surgery. It aims to see if this combination shrinks the cancer more and improves outcomes.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04267848RecruitingPhase 3
Testing immunotherapy with chemo after lung cancer surgery
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy medicine to standard chemotherapy after surgery can improve outcomes for some people with non-small cell lung cancer. It may help by boosting the immune system to reduce the chance the cancer comes back.
Camden, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04181060RecruitingPhase 3
Osimertinib alone or with bevacizumab for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This Phase 3 trial tests whether starting osimertinib with or without bevacizumab helps people with advanced EGFR-mutant lung cancer live longer and control the cancer better. Your EGFR mutation test result and past treatments are key to whether you can join.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT02468024RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery or focused radiation for early lung cancer
This study compares two treatments—removing only part of the lung (sublobar resection) versus a focused radiation approach (stereotactic ablative radiotherapy)—for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to see which option works better with fewer problems for the right patients.
Neptune City, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06712316RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
New drug plus chemotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new investigational drug combined with chemotherapy for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has not been treated before. The goal is to see if it is safe and works better than current treatments.
East Brunswick, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06892548RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Combination therapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two investigational drugs, BNT324 and BNT327, for people with advanced lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery.

Study of PF-08634404 with other cancer drugs for advanced lung cancer
This study tests a new medicine called PF-08634404 (an antibody-drug conjugate that targets cancer cells) combined with other anti-cancer drugs in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. It aims to see if these combinations are safe and effective. You may be eligible if your cancer has not responded to prior treatments or if you have not received any systemic treatment for advanced disease.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06287775RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug combo for small cell lung cancer
This trial tests adding a new drug, iadademstat, to standard immunotherapy drugs (atezolizumab or durvalumab) for people with small cell lung cancer that responded to initial treatment. The goal is to see if this combination works better at preventing cancer from returning.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06033248Recruiting
Urine test for early lung cancer detection
This study is testing if urine samples can help detect lung cancer early. You might help by providing a urine sample—either if you have early-stage lung cancer, have a suspicious lung nodule, or don’t have lung cancer at all.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18–90 - NCT05424029Recruiting
Test blood and lung fluid markers to predict lung cancer return
This study looks at tiny particles from the body (including from lung samples) to see if they can predict whether non-small cell lung cancer comes back after surgery. It may help doctors identify people at higher risk of recurrence sooner, so follow-up plans can be better tailored.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07365241RecruitingPhase 3
Study of ABBV-706 vs standard care for advanced small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug called ABBV-706 against standard treatments (topotecan, lurbinectedin, or amrubicin) for people with small cell lung cancer that has come back or stopped responding to previous therapies. The goal is to see if ABBV-706 works better at controlling the cancer.
Mullica Hill, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06203210RecruitingPhase 3
Study of a new drug for relapsed small cell lung cancer
This study tests a new drug, ifinatamab deruxtecan, against the doctor's choice of standard treatments for people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer that has returned after initial platinum-based chemotherapy. The goal is to see if the new drug works better and if it might be a new option for you.
East Brunswick, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07619339RecruitingPhase 1
Study of tepotinib and ivonescimab for non-small cell lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, tepotinib and ivonescimab, for people with a certain type of advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a change called MET exon 14 skipping. The treatment aims to shrink tumors or slow their growth.

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.
