Study of a new imaging agent for breast and lung cancers
This trial tests a new imaging agent called [68Ga]Ga-DWJ155 to see how well it helps detect certain types of advanced breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. It may help doctors better understand the cancer and guide treatment decisions.
Groningen, Provincie GroningenAges 18–100 - NCT07382726RecruitingPhase 1
Study of izalontamab brengitecan plus adagrasib for KRAS G12C lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific KRAS G12C mutation and has stopped responding to a previous KRAS G12C inhibitor. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and works better than the single drug alone.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05613413RecruitingPhase 2
Maintenance cabozantinib plus pembrolizumab after lung cancer control
This trial tests whether continuing treatment with cabozantinib plus pembrolizumab after your metastatic squamous lung cancer responds (or is stable) can help people live longer and stay in control. It may be an option if your cancer has already shown it can respond to initial (first-line) treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07109401RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy for early-stage small cell lung cancer that can be removed with surgery
This trial tests whether giving immunotherapy before and after surgery can help people with limited-stage small cell lung cancer. It is for patients whose cancer has not spread widely and can be completely removed by surgery.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06807307Recruiting
Using genetic tests to predict immunotherapy response in lung cancer
This study looks at genetic material from tumor samples to find patterns that can predict whether immunotherapy will work for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The goal is to improve how doctors choose treatments for each patient.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT06043973RecruitingPhase 3
Almonertinib plus anlotinib for first-line advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (almonertinib and anlotinib) as first treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has specific gene changes (EGFR and TP53 mutations). The goal is to see if the pair works better than standard care.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT04938804Recruiting
One-time lung cancer screening with a low-dose chest CT
This study tests whether a one-time, low-dose chest CT scan can help find lung cancer early in certain people. You may be invited because of your age and location, and because you have not had recent related testing or symptoms.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 40–74 - NCT05663242RecruitingPhase 4
