Study drug before surgery for ALK or ROS1 lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests WX-0593 given before surgery for certain types of lung cancer that have ALK or ROS1 gene changes. The goal is to shrink or control the cancer ahead of the operation and see how well the treatment works and is tolerated.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT05613452RecruitingPhase 2
Carbon ion radiation for peripheral lung cancer you can’t operate on
This trial tests whether carbon ion radiation (high-energy targeted radiation) can control peripheral non-small cell lung cancer in people who are medically unable to have surgery. It may help shrink or stop tumor growth while limiting harm to nearby organs.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06943989Enrolling by invitation
Breathing ozone vs. clean air at rest
This study tests how resting healthy adults respond to breathing low levels of ozone (a common air pollutant) compared to clean air. Researchers will measure lung function and signs of inflammation in your blood or breath.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18–35 - NCT06311981RecruitingPhase 2
Carbon ion radiation for elderly lung cancer patients
This trial tests carbon ion radiotherapy for adults 75 and older with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer who cannot have surgery. The goal is to see if this precise type of radiation can treat the cancer effectively with fewer side effects.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 75 years+ - NCT06945120Recruiting
Lung Health Program for Chinese and Korean Smokers
This study is testing a program to help Chinese and Korean adults who smoke to improve their lung health. You may be able to join if you are a current smoker, speak Korean, Mandarin, or English, and live in the U.S.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–100 - NCT06950697Recruiting
Blood clot risk prediction for lung cancer patients on immunotherapy
This study builds a tool to predict blood clot risk in lung cancer patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors. Researchers will use your data to develop a more personalized risk assessment, which may help prevent dangerous clots during treatment.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT06943235RecruitingPhase 2
Probiotics, radiation, chemo, and immunotherapy for limited-stage small cell lung cancer
This trial tests if adding probiotics (good bacteria) to standard chemoradiation and an immunotherapy drug (adebrelimab) can help treat limited-stage small cell lung cancer. It may improve how well the treatment works and reduce side effects.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06934343Recruiting
Personalized therapy for advanced lung cancer using data
This trial uses real-world data to study how to personalize treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer. It looks at medical records from 2011 to 2024 to find the best therapy approaches.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges Any age - NCT06205927RecruitingPhase 2
Carbon Ion Boost for Advanced Lung Cancer
This trial tests a new way to give radiation therapy (carbon ion boost) to people with advanced, inoperable lung cancer. The goal is to see if targeting the most aggressive parts of the tumor with a higher dose can improve outcomes.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06775678RecruitingPhase 2
Spatial fragmentation plus low-dose radiation for resistant lung cancer
This study tests whether combining a special type of radiation (spatial fragmentation) with low-dose radiation can help people whose lung cancer stopped responding to immunotherapy and chemotherapy. If you are eligible, you may receive a new treatment approach to try to shrink the tumors.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06931717RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy after lung cancer surgery for those not getting chemo
This trial tests if the drug cemiplimab can prevent non-small cell lung cancer from coming back after surgery. It's for people whose tumors have PD-L1 levels of at least 1% and who are not receiving standard chemotherapy after surgery.
ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT06923618Recruiting
Lung Cancer and Aging in Older Adults
This trial looks at aging-related changes in older adults (70+) with early-stage lung cancer who are planning to have surgery. The goal is to better understand how these changes might affect recovery and outcomes, which could help improve care for future patients.
Créteil, Île-de-France RegionAges 70 years+ - NCT06924515Enrolling by invitation
Intercostal suturing to prevent lung hernia after chest surgery
This trial tests whether a special stitch between the ribs during lung surgery can prevent a rare complication where lung tissue bulges out of the chest wall. It is for people having lung surgery through several small incisions.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06926140Recruiting
Acupuncture with immunotherapy for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests if adding acupuncture to standard immunotherapy and chemotherapy helps people with advanced lung cancer. It is for those who have not had treatment before and whose tumors have low PD-L1 levels.

AI-assisted check for pulmonary hypertension in interstitial lung disease
This study uses an AI tool to help doctors decide if you should be tested for pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs), which can be a complication of interstitial lung disease. If the tool suggests you might have it, you may get an echocardiogram (an ultrasound of the heart) and a right heart catheterization (a test to measure pressure in the heart) to find out for sure.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for lung?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 2,828 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.
