IncheonAges 20 years+ - NCT07541170RecruitingPhase 3
Testing divarasib after lung cancer surgery and chemotherapy
This study tests whether a drug called divarasib can help prevent lung cancer from coming back after surgery and initial treatment. You would only qualify if your cancer has a specific genetic mutation (KRAS G12C) and you've already had surgery and chemotherapy with immunotherapy.
Clovis, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07590531RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Two-Drug Lung Cancer Treatment Study
This trial tests a combination of two experimental drugs (AMT-116 and ivosidan) for patients with advanced lung cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The study aims to see if this combination can help shrink tumors and improve survival.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05482568RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug SHR-A1811 with two lung cancer medicines
This early-phase trial tests an injectable cancer drug (SHR-A1811) given with either pyrotinib or another targeted drug (SHR-1316) in people with advanced lung cancer. The goal is to see how safe the combination is and how well it can control the cancer.

Test drug SHR-8068 for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests SHR-8068 in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It may help by controlling cancer after standard treatments have not worked, and it’s designed to find the right way to give the drug.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT05841472RecruitingPhase 2
Camrelizumab plus chemo for advanced lung cancer without EGFR or ALK
This Phase 2 trial tests whether the immunotherapy drug camrelizumab, combined with pemetrexed and carboplatin, can work better as first treatment for advanced lung cancer that has no EGFR or ALK gene changes. You may be able to join if you have measurable disease, good enough organ function, and meet other safety rules for immune treatment.
AnamAges 19–80 - NCT06617936RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus endostatin and chemo for stage III lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab), an anti-angiogenic drug (endostatin), and standard chemotherapy for people with stage III lung cancer that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this triple therapy can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT07111520RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Combination treatment for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests two investigational drugs, BNT326 and BNT327, together in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has spread or can't be cured with local treatment. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and might help shrink tumors.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06568939RecruitingPhase 2
Study of telisotuzumab vedotin for non-squamous lung cancer
This trial tests a drug called telisotuzumab vedotin (ABBV-399) given through a vein to people with a specific type of advanced lung cancer (non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer) that has a high level of a protein called c-Met. The study aims to see how the drug affects the body and helps control the cancer.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07689643RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Radioactive drug plus immunotherapy for FAP-positive lung cancer
This trial tests a new treatment that uses a radioactive medicine called [177Lu]Lu-RTX-2358 combined with immunotherapy (a type of drug that helps your immune system fight cancer). It is for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer whose tumors have a specific marker called FAP.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07416474RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two drug combos for first-line lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug (RC148) plus chemotherapy against another drug (Tislelizumab) plus chemotherapy for people with a type of lung cancer called squamous non-small cell lung cancer that has spread or can't be removed. It's for those who haven't had treatment for advanced disease yet.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT04302025RecruitingPhase 2
Testing targeted and immunotherapy before lung cancer surgery
This trial studies whether giving different cancer medicines before (and sometimes after) surgery improves outcomes for people with early-stage, operable lung cancer that has certain tumor markers. It may help by trying to shrink or control the cancer early and lower the chance it comes back.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04980716RecruitingPhase 3
Heart-based early intervention for stage III lung cancer using heart signals
This trial tests an early heart-focused intervention guided by a special heart recording (impedance cardiography) in people with locally advanced, unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to improve heart-related safety during planned radiation and chemotherapy, with or without immunotherapy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05055908RecruitingPhase 3
Testing immune-therapy for lung cancer and predicting response
This trial studies how well immune checkpoint medicines (with or without chemotherapy) work for lung cancer, and looks for biomarkers—tests that may help predict who benefits. It may help you access a structured treatment plan and additional response testing.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT05257551Recruiting
Small cell lung cancer data study using tumor and blood samples
This observational study collects information and lab samples from people with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. It may help researchers understand how patients respond and improve future care, but it usually does not add new treatment for you.
Los Alamitos, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05494021Recruiting
Lung cancer screening study for higher-risk adults
This study tests whether people at higher risk for lung cancer can be safely screened using regular chest CT scans. You might benefit from closer monitoring, and the study helps doctors learn the best way to catch lung cancer earlier.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 45–75 - NCT05819346Recruiting

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.
