Recruiting studies
- NCT06441357Recruiting
Using CT to Check Lung Cancer Spread
This study uses a special type of CT scan (dual energy CT) to look at lung nodules that are 3 cm or smaller and have been confirmed as lung adenocarcinoma. The goal is to see if the scan can help tell how aggressive the cancer is, which may guide treatment decisions.

Graz, StyriaAges 1 minute–6 months - NCT06470607Recruiting
Lung tumor immune cell study for surgery patients
This study looks at immune cells inside lung tumors to better understand how they work. If you are having surgery for a thoracic tumor, your tissue could help researchers learn more.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06472245RecruitingPhase 3
Cancer vaccine for lung cancer that stopped responding to immunotherapy
This trial tests a therapeutic cancer vaccine called OSE2101 for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer whose tumors stopped responding to an immunotherapy drug. The vaccine is designed to help your immune system fight the cancer in a different way.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06476093Recruiting
Radiation plus anlotinib for lung cancer brain spread
This trial tests a combination of focused radiation (stereotactic radiosurgery) and an oral targeted therapy called anlotinib for people with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the brain. It may offer a way to control brain metastases without more invasive procedures.
Lianyungang, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT06476249Recruiting
Cough risk after lung surgery via thoracoscope
This study looks at why some people develop a cough after having part of a lung removed through small cuts (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery). It may help identify who is more likely to have this side effect.
Kunming, YunnanAges 18–70 - NCT06476470Recruiting
Taiwan ILD registry for understanding lung disease
This registry is gathering information from people with different types of interstitial lung disease (ILD) across Taiwan. It aims to better understand the disease and improve future care.
TaichungAges 18 years+ - NCT06479811RecruitingPhase 1
Radioactive drug for advanced neuroendocrine and other cancers
This trial tests a new radioactive drug, [212Pb]VMT-Alpha-NET, that targets a protein on certain cancer cells. It is for people with specific types of advanced cancers that have gotten worse and are not responding to standard treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06480435Recruiting
Chest physiotherapy and lung squeezing for men with COPD
This study explores whether a chest physiotherapy technique (called lung squeezing) can help men with moderate-to-severe COPD breathe more easily. Participants will receive the therapy and be monitored for improvements.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–60 - NCT06480864Recruiting
Study of adebelimumab and apatinib for extensive stage small cell lung cancer maintenance
This trial tests whether adding two targeted therapies (adebelimumab, an immunotherapy, and apatinib, a drug that blocks blood vessel growth) after initial chemotherapy can help keep extensive stage small cell lung cancer under control. It is for people who have not yet had systemic treatment for their cancer and are in good enough health to try this maintenance approach.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18 years+ - NCT06481566Recruiting
Almonertinib plus radiation for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This trial tests combining a targeted pill (almonertinib) with precise radiation to the lung for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has an EGFR mutation. The goal is to see if this combination works better than the pill alone.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06483347RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy combo for inoperable lung cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy drugs (checkpoint inhibitors) delivered directly into the liver along with standard treatment, as a first option for people with inoperable lung cancer. It aims to see if this approach can help shrink tumors and improve outcomes.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,885 recruiting lung 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 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 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.
