Recruiting studies
- NCT07130786RecruitingPhase 2

Study of lung cancer patients who got chemo-immunotherapy before planned surgery but didn't have surgery
This study looks at patients with stage II or III non-small cell lung cancer who started chemotherapy plus immunotherapy before planned surgery but did not actually have surgery. It aims to understand why surgery was canceled and how patients did over time.

Combination therapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new treatment combining stereotactic radiation (SFRT), the immunotherapy tislelizumab, and platinum chemotherapy for people with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that can't be removed with surgery. It aims to see if this combination helps shrink or control the cancer better.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–85 - NCT07132190RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation for growing brain tumors with same-day planning
This study tests whether a precise, one-day radiation treatment for brain tumors that are growing or in tricky spots can be effective with a smaller safety margin. It's designed for people whose brain tumors are changing quickly or sitting near areas of swelling or recent surgery.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07134660Recruiting

Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07160335RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a potential biosimilar for multiple resected solid tumors
This trial tests whether a new drug, HLX17, works as well as the approved drug Keytruda® in people whose solid tumors (like lung cancer, melanoma, or kidney cancer) have been fully removed by surgery. The goal is to see if the new drug can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
Glendale, CaliforniaAges 18–85 - NCT07161388Recruiting
Durvalumab after chemoradiation for limited-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests long-term use of durvalumab (an immunotherapy drug) after standard chemotherapy and radiation for limited-stage small cell lung cancer. It may keep the cancer from coming back.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07164170RecruitingPhase 2
Study of ABSK043 plus Glecirasib for advanced NSCLC
This trial tests a combination of two experimental drugs, ABSK043 and Glecirasib, for people with a specific type of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The goal is to see if the combination works better than standard treatments.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT07164313RecruitingPhase 1
ZW251 for advanced solid tumors
This trial is testing a new drug called ZW251 for people with advanced liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma), non-small cell lung cancer, or germ cell tumors that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07183189RecruitingPhase 3
New drug combo vs standard for EGFR-mutated lung cancer
This trial tests whether adding a new targeted drug (SHR-A2009) to the standard pill aumolertinib works better than aumolertinib alone for people with advanced lung cancer that has an EGFR mutation. It's for those who haven't had treatment yet.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07191171Recruiting
Gut bacteria drugs and immunotherapy in lung cancer
This study looks at whether certain drugs (like antibiotics or other gut-bacteria-affecting medications) influence how well immunotherapy works for advanced non-small cell lung cancer. It may help find ways to improve treatment outcomes.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT07193641RecruitingPhase 2
Lattice radiotherapy with standard care for slow-growing lung cancer
This trial tests whether adding a special radiotherapy technique called lattice radiotherapy to your usual cancer treatment can help control NSCLC that has started to grow in a few new spots. If you have up to 5 growing tumors and at least one measures 4.5 cm or larger, this study might be an option.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07199959Recruiting
Study on why entrectinib stops working in ROS1 lung cancer
This study looks at why the targeted drug entrectinib stops working in some people with ROS1-positive lung cancer. Participants will give blood or tumor samples before and after treatment to help researchers understand resistance.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,019 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.
