Recruiting studies in Tennessee
- NCT06498635RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy after surgery for lung cancer with no remaining cancer
This trial tests whether giving immunotherapy (durvalumab) after surgery can help prevent lung cancer from coming back if you already had a complete response to chemo and immunotherapy before surgery. It is for people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer who had no cancer left after treatment.
Collierville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06172478RecruitingPhase 2
HER3-DXd for advanced solid tumors after prior treatment
This trial tests a new targeted drug called HER3-DXd for people with several types of advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The drug is an antibody-drug conjugate, designed to deliver chemotherapy directly to cancer cells that have a protein called HER3 on their surface.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07489066RecruitingPhase 2
Study of PF-08634404 for early-stage or locally advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug, PF-08634404, alone or with other treatments, for people with early-stage or locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that can be surgically removed or has been treated with radiation and chemo. It aims to find if the drug helps before or after surgery or after standard treatments.
Knoxville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07222566RecruitingPhase 3
New drug plus chemotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new study drug called PF-08634404 combined with standard chemotherapy for people with advanced lung cancer that has not been treated before. It aims to see if this combination works better than chemotherapy alone.
Chattanooga, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07154290RecruitingPhase 2
Ubamatamab with or without REGN7075 for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new targeted therapy (ubamatamab) alone or with another drug (REGN7075) for people with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that has gotten worse after standard treatment. It aims to see if targeting MUC16, a substance found on some cancer cells, can help control the cancer.
Knoxville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT06793215RecruitingPhase 3
Divarasib plus pembrolizumab for KRAS G12C lung cancer

Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05334069Recruiting
Blood test study for early cancer detection in patients
This study collects blood from people with cancer and people without cancer (or with possible cancer) to test whether new blood tests can detect cancer earlier. Your blood samples help researchers evaluate how well these tests work.
Germantown, TennesseeAges 40–75 - 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.
Collierville, TennesseeAges 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.
Alcoa, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07680764RecruitingPhase 2
Imzokitug plus pumitamig and chemo for first-line advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (imzokitug, pumitamig, and platinum-doublet chemotherapy) as a first treatment for advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that has not spread to the brain. The goal is to see if adding imzokitug makes the standard treatment work better.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07124000Recruiting
T-DXd for advanced HER2-positive solid tumors
This trial is for people with advanced HER2-positive solid tumors (cancers that cannot be removed by surgery or have spread). It tests the drug T-DXd (also called Enhertu) when your doctor has already decided it's the right treatment for you and you have no other good options.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18–130 - NCT06293898RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BL-M07D1 for HER2-positive solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, BL-M07D1, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a protein called HER2. It is for patients who have already tried at least two other standard treatments.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT03452774Recruiting
AI matches your cancer tests to possible treatment trials
This trial uses an AI system to help match people with certain cancer types and specific tumor test results (like gene or protein markers) to relevant clinical trials. It may help you and your doctor find studies that fit your cancer biology faster.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Any age - NCT04585750RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug for TP53 Y220C-mutated advanced cancers
This early-phase study tests PC14586 (rezatapopt) in people with advanced or metastatic solid cancers that carry a specific TP53 mutation called Y220C. It mainly looks at safety and how well the treatment may work, sometimes combined with pembrolizumab.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 12 years+ - NCT04981119Recruiting
Test apheresis for CAR T manufacturing in HLA-A2 solid tumors
This trial studies how a process called apheresis is used to make CAR T cells for people with certain solid tumors. It is designed for tumors that have lost a specific immune marker (HLA-A*02), which may affect how well CAR T therapies work.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05501665RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Adaptive radiation plus pembrolizumab for stage IV lung cancer
This trial tests a personalized (“adaptive”) radiation plan combined with pembrolizumab, and possibly chemotherapy, for advanced stage IV lung cancer. It aims to improve cancer control while carefully managing side effects, including in patients with certain brain metastases.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05624996RecruitingPhase 3
Targeted high-dose radiation added to standard lung cancer treatment
This trial tests whether adding high-dose, targeted radiation to the usual treatment helps people with locally advanced, non-operable lung cancer live longer or better control the cancer. It may help shrink tumors in the chest and improve outcomes when surgery can’t be done.
Collierville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05786924RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted cancer drug study for RAS/RAF mutation-positive tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests S241656 (a targeted cancer medicine) in people whose cancers have certain “RAS/RAF” gene changes. It may help shrink tumors or control cancer growth, and also finds the safest dose and best way to use the drug.

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.
