Recruiting studies
- NCT07738367Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Bronchial artery chemoembolization with drug therapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a treatment called bronchial artery chemoembolization (BACE) combined with drug therapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer. BACE delivers chemotherapy directly to the tumor through the blood vessel that feeds it, which may help control the cancer when standard treatments have stopped working.

Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05456841Recruiting
Empathic communication training for lung cancer care
This trial tests whether training healthcare providers in empathetic communication improves their interactions with people receiving lung cancer care. You may be invited because your doctor’s clinic is participating and you meet the patient and language requirements.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18–100 - NCT05997719Recruiting
Study of EGFR-mutated lung cancer evolution and markers
This study looks at how EGFR-mutated lung cancer changes over time and tries to find markers that can predict how well you might respond to treatment. You will provide a tumor sample for genetic analysis.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,040 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.
