Alton, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07186296Recruiting
Emerald blood test study for new cancer diagnosis
This study is testing a blood test that looks for signs of lung, breast, colorectal, pancreatic, or ovarian cancer. If you have just been told you might have one of these cancers and haven't started treatment yet, this study may be an option to help learn more about your cancer from a simple blood draw.
Long Beach, CaliforniaAges 45 years+ - NCT07354919RecruitingPhase 2
Testing axelopran for advanced cancer patients on opioids
This trial tests if axelopran can help people with advanced prostate, breast, pancreatic, or lung cancer who are taking opioid pain medicines. It aims to see if the drug is safe and helps with bowel function.
Saint Louis Park, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07426718Recruiting
Breath test for airway inflammation in lung diseases and healthy people
This study is testing a simple breath test (Inflammacheck device) to see if it can measure airway inflammation in people with various lung conditions, including lung cancer, pneumonia, asthma, and COPD, as well as healthy volunteers. It aims to find better ways to diagnose and monitor respiratory diseases using your breath.
Portsmouth, HampshireAges 18 years+ - NCT07439991Recruiting
Study of blood clot risks after lung cancer surgery
This study looks at why some people develop blood clots after lung cancer surgery. By tracking your recovery for 30 days, researchers hope to find better ways to predict and prevent clots in the future.
Changchun, JilinAges 18 years+ - NCT07447050RecruitingPhase 2
Riluzole to Prevent Chemo-Related Cognitive Problems
This pilot study tests whether the drug riluzole can help prevent the thinking and memory problems (often called 'chemobrain') that some people experience during chemotherapy. If you are about to start a chemo regimen containing an anthracycline or platinum drug, you may be able to join.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07458425Recruiting
Lung cancer screening study using AI
This study tests how well an AI tool can predict lung cancer risk, based on your health information. It looks at how patients feel about this approach to screening, with the goal of making screening more personal and effective.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 50–80 - NCT07465848Recruiting
Testing telomere measurement to help diagnose lung cancer
This study uses a simple blood test to measure telomeres (parts of your DNA) to see if it can help detect lung cancer earlier. Researchers will compare results from people with lung cancer, heavy smokers, and low-risk individuals to improve diagnosis.
Elche, AlicanteAges 45 years+ - NCT07552584Recruiting
Blood test to screen for early lung cancer in COPD patients
This study uses an AI-powered blood test to identify people at high risk for lung cancer early, before symptoms appear. You'd be helping researchers see if this blood test can catch lung cancer sooner in people with COPD who have a smoking history.
VejleAges 50 years+ - NCT07626177Recruiting
Lung Cancer Screening Behaviors and Outcomes Study
This study looks at how lung cancer screening practices relate to the types and stages of lung cancer patients develop. Researchers want to understand whether earlier detection through screening changes what kinds of lung cancer people get, which could help improve screening strategies in the future.

68Ga-DPA scan for lung cancer diagnosis
This trial tests a new imaging agent called 68Ga-DPA to see if it can help find and measure lung cancer tumors. It is for people who are suspected or confirmed to have lung cancer and need a biopsy or surgery soon.
BeijingAges 18–85 - NCT04534413Enrolling by invitation

This study looks at lung cancer tissue after surgery, using lab testing done outside the body. It may help researchers better observe and study lung tumors using samples taken during lobectomy or segment removal.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05517811Recruiting
Blood clotting tests before and after surgery for cancer
This study looks at how cancer and surgery affect blood clotting. It may help doctors understand and prevent blood clots in patients having surgery for certain cancers.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,036 recruiting lung cancer studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a lung cancer trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a lung cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
