Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–70 - NCT07084610RecruitingPhase 2
Metabolic markers predict response to immunotherapy before lung cancer surgery
This trial tests whether certain markers in your blood or tissue can predict how well immunotherapy works before surgery for early-stage lung cancer. It aims to find out who benefits most from this treatment.
Ribeirão Preto, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT04977791Recruiting
Study how drug resistance develops in lung cancer immunotherapy
This study looks at lung tumor tissue and blood to understand why immune checkpoint drugs can stop working in non-small cell lung cancer. It may help researchers find better ways to predict and overcome drug resistance.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07034326RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Acupuncture plus immunotherapy after lung cancer surgery
This trial explores whether adding electroacupuncture (a gentle needle treatment with mild electric pulses) to standard immunotherapy after lung cancer surgery can help prevent the cancer from coming back. It is designed for people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer who have already had chemotherapy.
TianjinAges 18–80 - NCT05765877RecruitingPhase 2
Study drug before surgery for ALK or ROS1 lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests WX-0593 given before surgery for certain types of lung cancer that have ALK or ROS1 gene changes. The goal is to shrink or control the cancer ahead of the operation and see how well the treatment works and is tolerated.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT05613452RecruitingPhase 2
Carbon ion radiation for peripheral lung cancer you can’t operate on
This trial tests whether carbon ion radiation (high-energy targeted radiation) can control peripheral non-small cell lung cancer in people who are medically unable to have surgery. It may help shrink or stop tumor growth while limiting harm to nearby organs.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,010 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.
