ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT05493566RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Low-dose IL-2 plus pembrolizumab for stage IV lung cancer
This early-phase study tests whether low-dose IL-2 combined with pembrolizumab can help treat stage IV non-small cell lung cancer that has not had prior advanced treatment. It may be an option if your tumor has certain immune-marker findings (PD-L1) and you meet safety requirements.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05498428RecruitingPhase 2
Amivantamab for advanced lung cancer with EGFR mutations
This Phase 2 study tests amivantamab (an antibody medicine) in people with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that has specific EGFR gene changes. It may help shrink tumors or control cancer when standard curative treatments aren’t possible.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05501665RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Adaptive radiation plus pembrolizumab for stage IV lung cancer
This trial tests a personalized (“adaptive”) radiation plan combined with pembrolizumab, and possibly chemotherapy, for advanced stage IV lung cancer. It aims to improve cancer control while carefully managing side effects, including in patients with certain brain metastases.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT05526924RecruitingPhase 1
Phase 1 trial tests re-radiation plus immunotherapy and a cancer pill
This trial studies whether adding a checkpoint immunotherapy (tislelizumab) and a cancer pill (pamiparib) to radiation can better treat cancer that has come back in the head and neck. It’s for adults with previously treated, HPV-positive oropharynx tumors, usually without widespread spread.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05582265RecruitingPhase 3
Study immune drug plus chemo before surgery versus surgery first
This Phase 3 trial compares two treatment plans for stage III/IVA head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC). One plan uses an immune drug with chemotherapy before surgery; the other goes straight to surgery first, to see which approach works better.
Guanzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT05642572RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug combinations for EGFR- and MET-changed lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests combinations of targeted medicines to treat advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has changes in both EGFR and MET genes. It is for people whose cancer continued to grow even after treatment with osimertinib, the most recent therapy.
